THE BLACK FEZ: Is the symbol that marks the wearer as a Prophet or Member of the Order. The color of the tassel marks the rank of the member. RED is the sign of a Prophet. PURPLE is the sign of a Monarch and YELLOW is the sign of a Grand Monarch of North America.
There is a further tassel, colored SILVER, which is used by Supreme Line Officers while in that office. Fezzes with the fancy jeweled applique on the front indicates that the wearer is a Past Monarch or Past Grand Monarch.
