The word grace is derived from the Greek word charis, which signifies 'God's favor’ (1). The plural form of this is Charites, which represents the Three Graces of Ancient Greek mythology. In Hesiod’s Theogony, they are Aglaea, who personifies radiance; Euphrosyne, who brings Joy; and Thalia, who symbolizes flowering. The Graces are masters of dancing, singing, and poetry; together, they represent charm, beauty, and grace (2).

The color of lavender reflects grace, while the lotus represents beauty and goodness. Swans, doves, and peacocks represent grace through their elegance and pride.
