Chapter 10 · A Woman's Body Marks
दशमोऽध्यायः
करतलं भुजयोर्यदि कोमलंविमलपद्मनिभं च समुन्नतम् ।निजपतेः कुसुमायुधवर्द्धकं ।निगदितं मुनिना विधिनोदितम् ॥ ५१ ॥
Her two palms may be soft, clean like a lotus and well raised. Then they add to her husband's love. So said the sage, as the rule was given.
Simple meaning: Soft, lotus-like palms are linked with her husband's love.
स्वच्छरेखाकुलं भद्रं नो भद्रं हीनरेखया ।
A palm with clear lines is linked with good fortune. A palm with no lines is linked with ill fortune.
शिरालं कुरुते निःस्वं नारी करतलं यदि ।
A palm with many veins is linked with little money. A raised back of the hand is spoken well of.
रोमाकुलं गभीरं च निर्मांसं पतिजीवहृत् ।
A hairy, deep back of the hand is linked with a risk to her husband's life.
