Traditionally, the primary color of Advent is Purple, the color of penitence and fasting as well as the color of royalty to welcome the Advent of the King. In the 3rd week (historically) or 4th week (as currently practiced in many religions), the Pink candle is lit to mark a time of joy. This box of traditional Advent taper candles includes 3 purple and 1 pink.
