Chapter 10 · A Woman's Body Marks
दशमोऽध्यायः
यस्याः समुन्नताङ्गुष्ठो वर्तुलोऽतुलसौख्यदः ।शूर्पाकारा नखा यस्याः सा भवेद्दुःखभागिनी ॥ ६ ॥
A woman's big toe may be raised and round. The old texts link this with comfort beyond compare. Her toenails may be shaped like a winnowing basket. They link this with a share of sorrow.
Simple meaning: A raised, round big toe is linked with great comfort. Basket-shaped toenails are linked with some sorrow.
संचलन्त्यां धराधूलिधारा यदा
Dust rising hard as a woman walks is linked with harm to three families.
यस्या अन्योन्यमारूढाः पादांगुल्यो भवन्ति चेत् ।
Toes lying one over another are linked with a risk to her husbands and many partners.
कनिष्ठा न स्पृशेद्भूमिं चलन्त्या योषितस्तदा ।
A little toe that does not touch the ground is linked with a risk to the husband.
