While possessing a lightsaber doesn't automatically mean Jedi status, it plays a pivotal role in a Padawan's progression towards becoming a Jedi Knight and then Master.

Throughout the galaxy, various force-wielding groups such as the Jedi, Sith, and others wield lightsabers with a diverse spectrum of colors. But what significance lies behind these colors, and what do they represent? In this video, I’ll break down each recognized lightsaber color in Canon and unveil the insights they provide about their user. Smash that Red Subscribe button, and let's jump into it.
The color of a lightsaber blade stems from the kyber crystal nestled within its hilt, serving as the heart of the weapon. This color is determined when the user extracts the crystal from its dormant state. Essentially, a lightsaber's color serves as a revealing element about its wielder and reflects aspects of their personality.
So that leads us to number 1. Blue Lightsabers.
Blue lightsabers are the most common seen among members of the Jedi order during the time of the Clone Wars. Blue lightsabers are used by Jedi Guardians, who prefer to focus on lightsaber combat and honing their aggressive negotiation skills. Jedi Guardians are a mirror to Sith Warriors from many millenia ago and they were seen as the Order’s representatives to the rest of the Galaxy, using combat to protect those in need. Guardians spent most of their time honing their martial arts skills and on peacekeeping missions in violent locations. Some prominent examples of Jedi Guardians are Anakin Skywalker, Count Dooku when he was still a Jedi and even Ki-Adi Mundi.
Number 2. Green Lightsabers
Green lightsabers were usually wielded by Jedi Consulars. If a Jedi who was about to harvest his kyber crystal was more in tune with the cosmic force than his fighting abilitiy, he would often have his crystal turn green. Consulars preferred to use nonviolent methods of solving problems, rather than pulling their lightsaber out. On top of this, Consulars spent most of their time refining their meditation and hoping to get answers to problems through the force. Now although Consulars would attempt to avoid conflict for as long as possible (maybe even too long), they were not stupid. They always carried their green blades around just in case they were needed. Finally, Jedi Consulars were some of the best at using force abilities in combat, making them incredible combatants, despite being so against violence. Some notable examples of Jedi Consulars are Qui-Gon Jinn, Master Yoda and Kit Fisto..
Number 3. Yellow Lightsabers
Yellow lightsabers were used by Jedi Sentinnels, which are basically a mix of the previous two. Sentinnels were some of the most powerful force users within the Jedi Order, and when Jedi were chosen to become temple guards they would be forced to take on the mindset of a sentinnel. A balance between fighting and calling upon the force. Now sentinnels were actually viewed as the most dangerous form of Jedi by Palpatine because they were very active in public life and were commonly seen helping poor and unfortunate citizens of cities. As a result, Palpatine believed that a Jedi from this branch would likely be the one to overthrow him... He was dead wrong. Some big examples of Yellow Lightsabers users are the Grand Inquisitor, before he fell to the Dark Side, All of the Jedi Temple Guards, Asajj Ventress after she broke off from Dooku and Rey.
Number 4. Purple and Amethyst Lightsabers
Purple and Amethyst lightsabers were exceedingly rare by the time of the Clone Wars because of the very unique personality and force attunement needed to harvest them. Purple kyber crystals could be harvested by those who were firmly in the light side of the force, but were not afraid to use the Dark Side of the force, if it was ultimately for good. The obvious case of this was Mace Windu, who was definitely a light side force user but developed the Lightsaber form known as Vapaad, which channelled the dark side.
Number 5. Red Lightsabers
Red Lightsabers stand out as one of the most intriguing hues for a Force user. Unlike other colors that occur naturally in kyber crystals during harvesting, the red hue is achieved through a distinctly unnatural process. To attain this color, the user must compel the kyber crystal to bleed through the Force, channeling intense anger and rage until it transforms into a deep red shade. This practice was commonly employed by Sith, including the iconic Darth Vader.

Man I loved that show
I think you missed one example of the blood red sabre colour being dagan gera. Just thought it was worth mentioning since that colour and Baylan’s is similar, at least from what I remember
also, had a thought. If Qui gonn Jin had a Green light saber but followed the living force instead of the cosmic force, why was his light saber Green and not cloudy Blue?

In a behind the scenes interview he said he picked the green one because he’s Irish.
Thank you Cal Kestis.
How is Cloudy Blue linked to the Living force? Senube was wise beyond his years wouldn't the blade be closer to Green? If you could explain that in a bit more detail that would be great :) Keep up the good work. Love the vids
Based off what Dave Filoni said in an interview the orange-red was more of a stylistic choice to make the core of the saber a bit more orange then white, like the lightsabers were in the original Star Wars films before vfx was remastered. He said since they aren't actually Sith he wanted it to be a bit different. So I guess it's up to our interpretation of what that means now.
Man i forgot how amazing your content is! Do you remember me from my comments on previous vids? Much love from perth (Ps thank mr cal kestis)

There is one canonical jedi from the high republic series named Vernestra that wielded a magenta lightsaber
Love the thoroughness!!!
Orange is gray Jedi. Jedi that had power on both sides of the force but has committed allegiance to neither the light or dark side. It's supposed to represent the perfect balance yellow and red makes orange. The were nomads and wanderers mostly on there own throughout the galaxy. Oh and also Gaylen Merrick or AKA star killer has a cyan or what wed call a teal blade for his saber so we do know one in legends just not cannon
plo koon and yaddle have used a orange lightsaber

2 of my favorite jedi
If I could pick a light saber colour I’d go with Navy Blue or Indigo with the Jedi survivor game colouring. 🔥
8:31 well if it was legends, the ones user i know is Meetra Surik, the jedi exile
I personally think it's neat how there WAS a couple of Jedi throughout all of the order's history that had the super rare naturally red saber crystal. They weren't bleeding or corrupted crystals, but a super rare naturally occurring one that had a red shade that was slightly different than the ones used by dark side users. I think I read that throughout the entire order, only a maximum of three Jedi had found the rare naturally red ones, and that their shade was a beautiful red that gave a viewer a feeling of awe and wonder instead of anger or fear. The last known user was a female Jedi that had one sometime withing Yoda's earlier years in the temple.. with there being no more known natural reds in the last 100-200 years. Look it up, it's pretty neat. As for orange sabers.. I think yellow saber users get them when their anger takes control of them but they still haven't lost themselves FULLY to the dark side, but are close.
Orange-red could be a failed attempt to bleed a crystal if the user isn’t attuned to the Dark Side.
Where was it said that Teron Malicos used Nightsister Magick to alter his kyber crystal?
What I love about this, is that this is canon with Knights of The Old Republic. I'm so overjoyed, you don't understand. I've always wanted to know the full meanings of each saber crystal. Also, you're missing a Jedi crystal color. I was looking up lightsaber colors and one of them is multicolored like a rainbow. I don't remember the name of the Jedi wielder, but I'm pretty sure she was a princess.
In Jedi Fallen Order I gave Cal a yellow lightsaber after a certain spoilery quest. It was because I looked at the skill tree and got reminded of this part 2:12 I basically unlocked equal amounts of force and lightsaber abilities so I just went "have a yellow saber".
My favorite lightsaber colors are yellow white orange purple and black like the dark saber
For orange i think it's more the bleeding process that failed

Or, representative of an individual who has tapped in to equal powers connected with both The Dark Side and The Light Side Of The Force. Seeing what happened to Dagan Gera, the fallen Jedi from The High Republic, in JEDI: Survivor, it seems crystal clear that he spontaneously partially bled his Sentinel yellow lightsaber in to orange, through his pain (over The Nihil and The Nameless), outrage (at being shunned by The Jedi Order), and obsession with the singular goal of returning to Tanalorr, to rule the galaxy through war.
Wait there were 2 other orange red weilders though in Jedi survivor o.o
Yoda having a green light saber and only ever loosing a light saber dule to 1 person show how strong he is
It seems, the Sith Worshiper/Acolyte, Kiza, has a Sith lightsaber that eventually turns strawberry red. I take it to be symbolic of the fact that she's a relative non-Force-user, who has become one with the blade, though she is slowly becoming possessed by both the Dark Side infused mask (bearing the spirit of the Sith Lord Exim Panshard) she wears, and the lightsaber (which she used to kill a jealous fellow-Acolyte, and potential boyfriend), with just a touch of her own torn essence showing through.

Star Force 1 quick question hear me out does a white lightsaber color in Star Wars canon mean a mix between purple and yellow balance and neutrality and who better to deserve a white lightsaber color than the chosen one Anakin Skywalker who's neither Jedi Nor sith but something even much more a force wielder if he became that

No it doesn't mean that A white lightsaber is when a force user reverses the bleeding of a red lightsaber crystal

@@Lily_Hasson666 so it doesn't have any connection to purple or yellow balance or neutrality also in Star Wars Rises Skywalker rey skywalker has a yellow lightsaber so that means she is a balance between lightsaber combat and force abilities right
My favorite class is Jedi Sentinel or Sith Assassin. Special Ops for the respective allegiances.
i was trained abit more as guardian, but i also learn force powers and tech skills, pretty much im a jack of all trades jedi, so my color would be hard to determine, but given that i use both light and dark, it'd be purple, but i want my lightsaber to be red, i am not sith, i use a red saber as a symbol, that red is not a pure evil color
In my opinion, my favorite colors are white, cyan, yellow
My would probably be green through the force. But my favorite is yellow
I heard that the reason for the purple blade’s creation was because Samuel L. Jackson knew he was going to be in a big fight scene with lots of people, so he wanted a purple blade so he could stand out and his kids could easily point him out on screen. (Nit sure how true that is, but that’s the rumor I hear.)
I feel like Quinlan should’ve had a yellow blade as much undercover detective work he did
Yellow-Red is most likely just a lightsaber powered by lava krystal
missed the yellow gold light saber used by the twins.
Purple/Amethyst Lightsabers: Sam Jackson wanted a Purple Lightsaber
Orange should be from a Jedi sentinel who can harness and control the dark side.
Cyan would be my colour choice
Jedi guardians, consulars etc... all of this is from the expanded universe and not canon, In canon there is no explanation due to the colors or what the Jedi represent, most of the video content was taken from Legends.
hey rey had a orange lightsaber at the end of rise of skywalker
Thank Mr. Kal Kestis. What on Ryloth does that mean?
Pretty sure Kenobi's lightsaber is cyan in episode 4
I know its problaby lighting but am i the only one that notices that the shade used for blue is inconsistant it feels like no one else has noticed it
is brown lightsaber exist
Orange-Red might signify thery were once edi Order members, after Order 66 they embraced the Dark Side but are not Inquisitors.

What if an orange lightsaber is just a purified orange-red saber.

I heard another youtuber say that orange lightsabers are just failed red light saber bleeds, so like sith who ended up with orange lightsaber blades instead of red were considered as having failed or at least looked down on. (Could be old legends info though and not canon)
what about silver ones?
Green Lantern much?
These cyber crystal colours are way too confusing or straight nonsensical the more I think about it.
Ah so unfortunately you used the non Canonical Disney crap 😢
