Lizard chirping, according to the Hindus, is considered holy and
auspicious.
These two
creatures are
supposed to
foretell by their
chirping and
hooting what is
going to befall
to certain
individuals in certain houses. So firm-rooted and strong this belief has
been among the people from time immemorial that there are separate
books on lizard chirping and owl hooting. Not only the chirping but also
the falling of a lizard on particular portion of the body of a man portends
good or evil to him.
If a lizard happens to fall on the head of an individual, then he should be prepared for some rebellion from or caused by others disturbing
his peace of mind. If the creature happens to drop on the tuft of hair, it foretells some gain to the person concerned. If it falls on the head,
then it indicates death. If the lizard drops on the face, he or she may have the opportunity of seeing some relatives soon. By falling on the
eye-brows, the lizard prophesies royal favour while its fall on the upper lip indicates loss of wealth and fall on the under lip, gain of wealth.
The fall of the lizard on other portions of the body indicates good or evil that can be mentioned as follows.
On the nose its fall forebodes sickness and disease, on the right ear it conveys long life, on the left ear the person gains in trade, on the
eyes he or she gets imprisonment; on the chin experiences royal punishment, on the mouth it indicates some source of fear, on the neck it
conveys destruction of enemies, on the right arm it effects general health, on the left arm it convey the message of sexual enjoyment, on
the right wrist it troubled of one kind or other, on the navel it indicates gain of precious stones, on the two sides there is immense gain, on
the thighs there is unhappiness to parents, on the knees and ankles indicates general good, on the feet says impending travel, on the
buttocks conveys general good, on the nails it says loss of wealth, on the penis conveys penury and want, on the left hand it conveys
sorrow, on the right hand it tells misery, on the back it says destruction, on the anus it helps in gaining money, on the toes of the feet it
represent fear, on the left hand fingers it entails sorrow, on the right hand fingers it says fear from royal displeasure and so on.
As regards the chirping of the lizard and what it portends it is said that the direction from which the chirping is heard on particular days of
the week have to be taken into consideration. The following table has been arranged to indicate what the chirping portends on particular
