What does a blue lotus symbolize?

I'm planning to get a lotus tattooed on my body soon. I know and understand the general meaning of lotuses, religiously, historically and philosophically.



And I know that the different colors of the lotus flowers have separate meanings. Does anyone specifically know the meaning of a blue lotus?

What does a blue lotus symbolize?
This is the symbol of the victory of the spirit over the senses, of intelligence and wisdom, of knowledge. It is always represented as a partially opened bud, and (unlike the red lotus) its centre is never seen. It is the lotus of Manjusri, and also one of the attributes of Prajnaparamita, the embodiment of the 'perfection of wisdom'.

I do believe most of the descriptions from web site referred seems to be correct, except most Manjushri's thankgas I saw from three of my schools, where I attend my training all still showing Manjushri sat on Pinkish red lotus flower throne?



However, there are some Bodhisattvas holding blue lotus flowers, most noticeable is Mahāsthāmaprāpta, the Bodhisattva standing on left hand side of Buddha Amitabha.



Else, just the Angry Buddha Dharmapalas are standing on the Blue Lotus thrones.
