divided by a diagonal from the left inferior vertex straight to

color represents the spiritual depth, the reflection and the

The flag - Attributes and Semiology: Consists in a field with
approximated ratio 2:3; this is, square and half of length
divided by means of a diagonal from the superior canton of the
fly to the inferior canton of the hoist in two triangular
stripes: sky-blue (superior) and yellow (inferior). Completes the
design the Coat of Arms of the Municipality on the superior
canton of the hoist. The sky-blue symbolizes the spiritual depth,
the reflection and the thought of the Guanarenian people,. whilst
the yellow alludes to the economic production of the
Municipality, whose identity and values are represented by means
of its Coat of Arms.
Historical Synthesis: It was created on October 29th, 1991, by
Professor Eddy Ferrer Luque.
The Coat of Arms - Attributes: Consist in an
English contour divided per fess. The Quarter of Chief, enameled
in Azure (blue) loads a dove in Argent (white) inserts inside an
aureole in Or (yellow) on the center, all accompanied in the
dexter and sinister by four six-pointed stars also in Or
(yellow). The Quarter of the Base, enameled in Sky-blue, shows a
landscape in which appears a town seated on a savannah in the
middle of two rivers with a mountainous ridge to the
bottom, all in its colors. Over all, a diminished fess in Gules
(red) loading the inscription "VENI CREATOR SPIRITUS"
("Come Creator Spirit") in capital gothic letters of
Argent (white). As External Ornaments, the blazon presents the
war voice "GUANARE" in capital gothic letters of Or as
crest; two halberds in its colors crossed in saltire behind the
field and two palm branches as supports, jointed under the base
by means of a pennant in Argent (white) charging the ephemeris
"3 DE NOVIEMBRE DE 1591" (November 3rd, 1591) in
capital gothic letters of Gules (red).
Semiology: The First Quarter reminds that the capital of the
Municipality was consecrated to the Holy Spirit. The Second
Quarter represents a semblance of the local landscape where is
located the capital of the Municipality in the middle of Guanare
and Portuguesa rivers descending from spurs of the Andes
Mountains range. The diminished fess emphasizes the first verse
of the Latin Hymn dedicated to the Holy Spirit. The war voice
raises the name of the capital of the Municipality. The halberds
remember the arms men that founded it. The palms alludes to the
feracity of the Municipality ground and the ephemeris on
the pennant reminds the foundation date of Guanare.
Historical Synthesis: It was created on October 17th, 1974, by
Professor Pedro José Muñoz
