The History of Jedi and Sith (Briefly Explained)
Originally, both emerged from the same Force tradition. But where the Jedi opted for discipline and harmony, the Sith believed that emotions should not be suppressed. This led to centuries of conflict: the Jedi-Sith Wars.
The Sith were nearly wiped out, yet secretly survived. This ultimately led to the fall of the Jedi Order and the rise of the Empire. The battle between light and dark repeats itself again and again.
Which lightsaber color suits you?
The color of your lightsaber says a lot about your path:
🔵 Blue – Courage and protection
🟢 Green – Wisdom and deep connection with the Force
🟡 Yellow – Balance and independence
🔴 Red – Power and passion
Fun facts:
- Blue is the most classic Jedi color and is often associated with Jedi Guardians: Jedi who focus strongly on combat technique and protection. Many iconic Jedi, such as Luke Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi , used a blue lightsaber.
- Green is traditionally associated with Jedi Consulars: Jedi who specialize in wisdom, diplomacy, and a strong spiritual connection to the Force. A well-known example is Yoda , whose green lightsaber symbolizes deep knowledge and mastery of the Force.
- Traditionally, yellow was used by Jedi Temple Guards. They were full-fledged Jedi, but with a specific role: protection, vigilance, and balance within the order. A well-known example is Rey . At the end of her journey, Rey consciously chooses a yellow lightsaber as a symbol of a new beginning. She builds her own saber, choosing not simply the old Jedi tradition, but her own path within the Force.
- Red is exclusive to Sith and Dark Side users. In lore, a red blade is created when a Sith "bleeds" a kyber crystal by imbuing it with Dark Side energy. The color red symbolizes passion, anger, power, and dominance. Iconic examples include Darth Vader and Darth Maul , whose red lightsabers are instantly recognizable as a symbol of the Dark Side.
