Tiresian blue is a hue of the color blue which is visible only during prophecy and fortune-telling events.
Description
One cannot normally perceive Tiresian blue, because it is only perceivable while genuine prophecy or fortune-telling is actually in progress.
Compare Numen and Cryptographic numen.
