State Flag:
The State Flag displays the Zia Symbol 
The center is a circle which means a house, a moon, or a sun. It
also means perfect friendship and is the symbol of eternity because it
is round and has no beginning and no end.
The sun has four rays on each side. Four is a magic number and
it is said the wise men have known that four means:
the fours winds: east, west, north, and south
the four seasons: spring, summer, autumn, and winter
the four parts to each day: morning, noon, evening, and night
the four parts of each life: childhood, youth, manhood, and old
age
Official Salute to the State Flag:
"I salute the flag of the State of New Mexico, the Zia symbol of
perfect friendship among united cultures."
