I live with my ex-husband, and without asking, he changed our porch light to green. When I asked why, he just said it was for his father, who recently passed away. He didn’t explain more.
Green porch lights carry powerful symbolism. In the U.S. and beyond, they often show support for veterans (especially through the “Greenlight A Vet” campaign), raise awareness for mental health, or express unity during times of loss or crisis. Green symbolizes healing, hope, and renewal.
Your ex-husband may be honoring his father’s memory in one of these ways—quietly showing support or grief through a meaningful light.
