Blue glyphs - Weiss used one as a trampoline in The First Step Part 2, and she stopped the Boarbatusk with one.

White glyphs - She's pushed herself, Nora, Blake, and ice Dust. The glyphs Weiss made going up the wall in Players and Pieces were white but also sorta blue, and those were there to keep Ruby glued to the wall and possibly help push her up toward the top of the cliff.

Black glyphs - In Players and Pieces, the glyph was black while holding Ruby in place. As Ruby was flying away, though, it turned white or blue, I can't tell. It looks white. The black glyph in The Badge and the Burden Part 2 started out blue, turned black when it held her into place, then turned blue when it pushed her toward the Boarbatusk.

Red glyph - The only time her glyph has turned red was when Ruby was in it in Players and Pieces, so I like to speculate that Ruby activated her Semblance for an extra speed boost.

So, black seems to be to hold someone or something in place, but both white and blue seem to push.
