Being a markedly Catholic tradition, it is still appreciated by people of other religions. It is a tradition that counts every year with huge participants and visitors (local and foreign).

 

Elements of Geocoin

FRONT (common part with all geocoins):

- White dove: one of the symbols of the Holy Spirit, present in the flag, the scepter and the flag pole. The idea is that the colors of the Dove reflexes are translucent enamel, to bring the concept of stained glass, better than being opaque enamel. Only the white dove will be opaque, creating a beautiful contrast.

- Stained Glass: is one of the architectural elements present in Azorean churches. there are churches that have stained glass windows depicting the holy spirit

Tema da Geocoin

Festa do Divino Espírito Santo é um culto ao Espírito Santo, em suas diversas manifestações, é uma das mais antigas e difundidas práticas do catolicismo popular. Esta tradição ocorre nas 9 ilhas dos Açores.

Sendo uma tradição marcadamente católica, não deixa de ser apreciada por pessoas de outras religiões. É uma tradição que conta todos os anos com imensos participantes e visitantes (locais e estrangeiros).

 

Elementos da Geocoin

FRENTE (parte comum a todas as geocoins):

- pomba branca: um dos símbolos do espírito santo, estando presente na bandeira, no ceptro e na haste da bandeira. A ideia é que as cores dos reflexos da pomba, sejam em esmalte translúcido, para aproximar ao conceito de vitral, melhor do que sendo esmalte opaco. Apenas o branco da pomba será opaco, criando um belo contraste.

- vitral: é um dos elementos arquitetónicos presentes nas igrejas açorianas. existem igrejas que possuem vitrais alusivos ao espírito santo
