Blue Dot

नीला बिंदु · nīlā bindu

Also called: Bluish spot

Where on the hand: On any line or mount; the sub-case singled out by Saint-Germain is a bluish spot at the Triangle (the region enclosed by the head, life and health lines).

What it looks like: A small round depression or spot with a bluish cast, 0.5–3 mm.

In Saint-Germain's colour system blue indicates fever of a specific kind — typhoid, malarial or cerebral. Together with black it belongs to the grave, chronic or past end of the colour scale, as against red for the active and future.

On each line

**Any line, general** — fever: typhoid, malarial or cerebral, dated at the dot's position.
**Head line** — the cerebral-fever reading applies most naturally here.
**Health / Liver line** — combines with the line's own febrile readings.

On each mount

**The Triangle, with prominent Mars mounts** — Saint-Germain: “murderous tendency” — one of the most extreme Victorian claims in the corpus.
**Mars (upper and lower)** — the aggravating condition for the Triangle reading; prominent Mars mounts are what turn the bluish spot into the criminological verdict.
**Other mounts** — the general colour rule applies: a grave or chronic disturbance of that mount's field.

Where it is positive or mitigated

**No positive reading** — the blue dot has no benefic placement in the sources.
**Repair** — as with all dots, a square is said to repair the damage (Benham).
**Transience** — the general dot rule, that dots may disappear when circumstances resolve, still applies.

Read with care: “Bluish spot at the Triangle with prominent Mars mounts = murderous tendency” is Victorian criminology of exactly the kind catalogued in the sensationalist tier: a character-and-crime verdict read off skin colour. It has no evidential basis and should never be relayed as a finding.
