What Causes Symmetrically Shaped Pinkish Blotch On Hard Palate?

The hard palate has a symetrically shaped, pinkish/purple blotch in the center of it. It does not hurt or itch or anything annoying, but it is noticeable. It s been there for about 4 weeks and seems to fade or become lighter for days, ony to return again more dark. It seems to have a little heat or warmth associated with it lately. There are no lesions or blisters of any kind, just a symetrical looking rash or blotch about 2-3 cm. long and a cm wide on each side from the middle.
