Tucked Sagittarius Mint

#0d753c
Notes

Tucked Sagittarius Mint (#0D753C) is a deep teal with a jewel character. It carries the deep, saturated richness of a gemstone. Authoritative and slightly formal, it works well for type and heavy UI elements. Its HSL profile (147°, 80%, 25%) places it in the highly saturated band at a dark lightness. Best used in small doses, like logos, CTAs, focus rings, or highlight text, where its saturation becomes a feature rather than noise. For a confident two-color system, pair it with its complementary magenta. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Tucked
adjective

Old English tūcian, to torment / pull — past-participle of tuck. As a color modifier, tucked implies a clear-and-fitted-and-arranged quality where the hue carries the visual register of carefully-tucked-and-neatly-fitted shirt-into-trouser dress-attire. Sits at the crisp-and-finished end of the grid, parallel to trim and pressed in usage.

Sagittarius
modifier

Latin sagittarius, archer-of-the-zodiac. As a color modifier, sagittarius implies a centaur-archer-and-fire-sign-and-Jupiter-ruled-mutable-fire quality, the visual register of Hellenic-Sagittarius-and-Chiron-centaur-archer hand-centaur-archer-and-fire-sign-and-Jupiter-ruled-mutable-fire Hellenic-Sagittarius-and-Chiron-centaur-archer-and-galactic-center sagittarius-and-centaur-archer-and-fire-sign surfaces under Hellenic-Sagittarius-and-Chiron-centaur-archer-and-galactic-center late-autumn-and-November-and-December mutable-fire-sign-light. Sits at the modifier-and-zodiac end of the grid, parallel to scorpio and capricorn in usage.

Mint
noun

The genus Mentha — peppermint, spearmint, apple mint, water mint — the cooling herb whose menthol gives it that quality at the molecular level. The color refers to fresh peppermint leaves before drying: a clean, slightly cool green with the matte finish of trichome-rich leaf surface. Lighter than basil, cooler than parsley, with the mojito-and-Pimm's association of a herb tied to summer drinks across two continents.
