The Druze star symbolizes the five wise superior ministers, each with his quality. Green is for "the mind", 'al-'akl, which is necessary for understanding the truth. Red is for "the soul", 'an-nafs. Yellow is for "the word", 'al-kalima, which is the purest form of expression of the truth. Blue, 'as-sabik, is for the mental power of the will. White, 'al-tali, is the realization of Blue, in which its power has been realized in the world of matter.

In many ways the Druze are like Mormons; they take care of their own, minding their own business, and fighting to the death if necessary to preserve their own ways. Their society is traditionally feudal and tribal, held together by blood ties, instead of by money as in much of the world.
