Liturgy occupies the place of the Traditions for we those men who looks for their wordly Jerusalem but don’t find her. Because I see how hostile Israel is to the Cross I cannot become Jewish being Catholic at the same time. But I want mix religion and wordly existence anyways so I relish the liturgy. Maybe my spice presents me coarse in this fields so sacred! Forgive me if I am being offensive (that I said about Israel being hostile - I say this because Jews well say that Christianity is a pagan worship to a man-god (and not a God-man) or well they say Christ wasn’t God - For prove the Catholic position against both things I have to follow a way by a Ravine so Dark as Death - so I say an authentic relation with Israel is hard for me) I say I try to have towards the Catholic Church the same relation Jews use to have with Israel - remaining Catholic.

Saith all this now comes my question:

I read in Wikipedia that the Catholic Church dispose five colors of zuchetti (solidei - those skullcaps that Hierachs wear). The five colours are white, red, violet, black and **¿green? **=? ? ? ? What is that issue of the green?

I know white is for the Pope, red for Cardinals, violet for Bishops and black for Abbots and Priests. But green? =?! Who are supposed to wear green zuchetti?

Since the source is Wikipedia, and the source of that source talking about green zuchetti
wasn’t ecclesiastic

maybe they talk about something what isn’t real

thanks so much! 🙂

PS: I am so sorry for my english. I like so much ask these questions to you (US’s Catholics) I admire your catholic life (South American catholic life is more mature - and traditional things use to be despised)
 
If you read the article carefully, you will see that it says there are no green zucchetti. The quotation is speaking about liturgical colors in general. The zucchetto is a liturgical vestment that would supposedly be found in all the colors used in the liturgy, but green is not. However, this quotation contradicted the section below, which explains that certain types of clergy are privileged to wear a certain color of zucchetto, so it is evident to me that zucchetti do not actually come in liturgical colors, and the quotation is out of place in that article.
 
As being in formation to become a subdeacon in the Maronite catholic rite after my ordination i will wear a grey or silver tone one. A friend of mine is a Friar monk priest with the order of St Benedict (O.S.B.) and he wears either a brown one or a black one. It is to the wearer a sign of your vow of humility. I can’t]wait to wear m:signofcross::signofcross:ine…

👍 Franciscans wear brown zuchetti too… going together with their habits?
A grey zuchetto? What interesting things the Eastern churchs have!

Green? You sure it wasn’t Zucchini?🤷

It seems that the user had that thesis supposing that zuchetti colors and cassok colors went together. Nor only there are not green zuchetti- neither there are cerulean (for Mary’s days) nor pinkish (for Laetare and Gaudete sundays) zuchetti.

Lol! That’s how I used to remind myself during Confirmation prep what that little hat was the bishop wore. ("Similar to zucchini, but not.)

Though, it could just be a Saskatchewan Roughriders fan wearing the bowl of a watermelon on her head, rather than opting for the full-blown watermelon helmet headcovering on game days in order to show greater reverence for the blessed sacrament, while still being faithful to her green blood.

Did you mean to say that cassocks are in liturgical colors that follow the seasons? I am not aware of this. I am aware of a standard black cassock, which may be with piping for prelates; white cassock for the Pope; as a young altar server I wore a scarlet cassock all days of the year. No green cassocks or any of the other colors you mention.

Blue as a Marian color is only permitted in very small areas for specific feast days. I believe it is in Spain. Blue has never been a universal liturgical color. If you see it, it is likely to be illicit.

“Pinkish” would be called “rose”.

No. I expressed myself in a wrong manner. I said that you had said that the Wikiuser had said (it is complicated) the colors of zuchetti are the same of the Liturgical Year. I suppose I was wrong. 😛

Not Spain. It is Spanish America, I think. Maybe it is related to the Patronage of the Virgin of Guadalupe.

Hahaha… yeah. You are right. I have to continue learning.

Blue is not one of the standard liturgical colors and it may only be used in virtue of a special privilege. By blue vestments we mean those manufactured from cerulean fabric. White vestments with blue motifs or trimmings are not subject to any restriction.
The privilege of using blue vestments in the Latin rite is of two kinds. One kind is that granted to some important Marian shrines. This was the case of Pope Benedict’s Mass which was held at Austria’s foremost center of devotion to Mary. The decree granting the privilege determines whether these vestments may be used habitually or only on certain major feasts.
The other privilege is that granted to whole countries. For example, all Spanish churches may adopt blue vestments on the feast of the Immaculate Conception, and this favor is sometimes also extended to countries once ruled by the Spanish crown.
Apart from these exceptions blue may not be used as a liturgical color, not even on major Marian feasts.
