WHITE HORSE - Depending on the culture, white horses symbolize purity, heroism or death. White is the rarest color of horse, and white horses have been associated with nobility in chivalry, with the sun in Greek mythology and with the end of the world in Christianity. They are often guides between the worlds of the living and of the dead. The white horse is the traditional steed of a good god or hero, and it is the only creature pure enough to bear the hero to triumph over evil. ​

White serves as a symbol of Righteousness and Spiritual Cleanliness.  White is the color most often mentioned in the Holy Bible to designate things that are pure and divine in nature. Today avid horsemen have many different horse breeds and horse scenes on their headstone. Horses of color represent stamina, strength and power.
