The flag of Vatican City consists of two vertical halves - the left side is yellow and the right side is white. In the middle of the white half is the crossed keys of Saint Peter and the papal miter. In heraldry, yellow and white usually represent the metals, gold and silver, which are not placed side by side. Special exception is made in here because gold and silver also represent the keys of Saint Peter. The "triregnum", the three crown papal tiara, constitutes a representation of the distinction of the three worlds, which is common to all traditions the celestial, terrestrial and infernal worlds. These worlds do not designate places as in the usual meaning, but states or modesof being related to principles. The celestial world represents the superior states of the being, the terrestrial or infernal world the inferior states and the intermediate world the human states. The Pope, as a human representative ruling over the three worlds, symbolizes the Pontiff, which means the bridge linking them or the ascent path from inferior to superior states of being. He is a picture of the World Axis represented by the vertical branch of the papal cross. As such, he is fulfilling the mediator function between Earth and the Heavens and establishing the communication between the three worlds, represented by the three horizontal bars.
