Mole on Your Nose Spiritual Meaning [More Than a Beauty Spot?]

Could the mole on your nose be significant? Yes! According to Samudrika Shastra (the study of body marks and their meanings), a nose mole can indicate an impulsive, attractive personality. Depending on the mole’s exact location, financial success or hardship may be in your future. 

Why Study Nose Moles?

Trying to find a hidden meaning in a skin blemish may sound silly to some people. After all, shouldn’t we try to cover up and remove blemishes?

But to those who follow Samudrika Shastra, removing their moles might be the furthest thing from their minds. Samudrika Shastra, or the Indian art of studying skin markings and their meanings, sees the beauty in what others may view as a blemish.

Mole astrology (yes, it’s a real thing!) is a subset of Samudrika Shastra and teaches that moles can indicate both a person’s nature and their future. Many believe this astrology of the skin mirrors the astrology of the stars, since moles form in utero and are thus affected by astrological signs.

So if you have a mole on your nose (or know someone who does), here is what it might say about you:

What Does A Nose Mole Mean?

In general, people with moles on their noses tend to have more impulsive personalities. You may notice that they excel in witty banter and have a great sense of humor, which often makes them popular. They may also have short tempers. Additionally, people with nose moles tend to carry themselves with self respect and confidence, which can cross the line into arrogance if left unchecked.

A mole’s deeper meaning may differ depending on the sex of the individual. For example, a mole on the nose can sometimes indicate future financial success. For females, that success will be due to their smarts. But males will succeed financially simply out of good luck.

How Might A Mole Differ From Nose To Nose?

OK, let’s dig a little deeper. (I couldn’t resist the mole pun.) You can find out even more about a mole’s meaning by studying its characteristics.

For instance, it’s important to note the mole’s exact location on the nose when trying to determine your future. For example:

I don’t know about you, but I sure wish I had a mole on the right side of my nose tip!

You probably figured this out by now: A mole’s size matters too. Generally the larger the mole, the more likely you are to see results. A small mole on the tip of your nose, for example, might mean you are just a little impulsive and that you will experience a few lucky breaks in life. But a larger mole may indicate a string of lifelong fortune, despite your impulsive nature.

Who Started Studying Moles?

Mole astrology isn’t some new fad. Ancient Greece’s most famous doctor, Hippocrates, studied moles way back in 400 BCE. You may remember from history class that Hippocrates developed a new branch of medicine based on astrology. Your teacher may not have mentioned, though, that among Hippocrates’ many studies was a fascination with mapping moles. He believed a correlation existed between moles and the stars.

Let’s jump even further back in our timeline and all the way across Europe: Around 2700 BCE, China developed “Mian Xiang”, or face reading. And one of the important components of face reading was–you guessed it–moles! According to Mian Xiang, a trained face reader can map your life from beginning to end by reading the lines, marks, and contours of your face. A mole in a particular spot may indicate the timing of an upcoming life event.

Sadly, the history of mole astrology isn’t all positive. In Medieval Europe, many believed a mole on the nose or face was a sign of demon possession or witchcraft. Think about it: What was the classic depiction of a witch for years? A hunched-over hag sporting a large mole on her even larger nose! Thankfully, this nose mole discrimination has subsided over time.
