Heroic Pisces violet

Latin hēroicus, of a hero — derived from Greek hērōs. As a color modifier, heroic implies a saturated-and-monumental-and-victorious quality, the deep-rich color of Wagner-and-Sibelius late-Romantic-era musical-and-painterly heroic-mode. Sits at the bold-and-celebratory end of the grid, parallel to triumphant and valiant.

Latin pisces, fishes-of-the-zodiac. As a color modifier, pisces implies a two-fishes-and-water-sign-and-Jupiter-Neptune-ruled-mutable-water quality, the visual register of Hellenic-Pisces-and-Aphrodite-Eros-fishes hand-two-fishes-and-water-sign-and-Jupiter-Neptune-ruled-mutable-water Hellenic-Pisces-and-Aphrodite-Eros-fishes-and-Ichthys pisces-and-two-fishes-and-water-sign surfaces under Hellenic-Pisces-and-Aphrodite-Eros-fishes-and-Ichthys late-winter-and-February-and-March-into-April mutable-water-sign-light. Sits at the modifier-and-zodiac end of the grid, parallel to aquarius and aries in usage.

Viola odorata, the European sweet violet — small, fragrant, and the original meaning of the color name in English (the Violet of the rainbow). The color refers to a fresh sweet violet blossom in late winter: a saturated, slightly red-shifted deep blue-purple with the matte finish of small five-petaled flower. Cooler than amethyst, warmer than indigo, with the perfumed weight of a flower used in Roman garlands and Victorian eau de toilette.
