Colors and Directions: The Tibetan System of Four

	red West Tib., nub
yellow South Tib., lho		green North Tib., byang
	white East Tib., shar

The Tibetan system of four directions is based on the system of eight, with no changes in color associations. It is, however, slightly different from the system of nine where East is associated with blue!

The color scheme at left fits the associations of the Four Guardian Dakinis.
