दशमोऽध्यायः
पीनमौलिरतिमानहारिकादारिका कुजनसङ्गकारिका ।लम्बमौलिरपि सर्वनाशिकाबन्धकी निजकुलान्तकारिका ॥ १०४ ॥
A girl with a full, rounded head may lose much honour. She may fall into the company of unkind people. A drooping head may bring the loss of everything. The old texts link it with a relationship outside marriage and a risk to her own family line.
Simple meaning: A full or drooping head is linked with loss of honour and wealth, and a risk to the family.
केशा यस्या भ्रमरपटलोपेक्षवर्णा सुवर्णा
Wavy hair like a swarm of bees brings good fortune. Sparse, tawny or rough hair is linked with sorrow.
मशकोपि ललाटपट्टवर्त्ती यदि
A clear mole on the forehead or between the brows brings comfort and wealth to her family.
मशकोऽपि कपोलमध्यगामी
A red mole on the cheek gives wished-for results. A tilaka spot on the chest is linked with rank.
