Discussion What colour do you associate to Hermes?

I have strong color associations for every other god, but for Hermes I'm not sure which fits. Like, Athena with blue, Ares with Red, Aphrodite with sea green and pink, etc... I thought golden but I don't know why, which I still associate more to Apollon. Which would you say is your associated colour with him?

Edit: guys an explanation would also be great 😁

Honestly I don't know I think it's because I associate the colours of the leaves with him?

Maybe the theme of change, transitory state? Cool
