- Parvata (mount)A fleshy pad of the palm, named for a graha: Jupiter under the index finger, Saturn under the middle, the Sun under the ring, Mercury under the little finger, Venus at the base of the thumb, the Moon on the outer edge, and two of Mars. Full and firm gives the graha's qualities; flat shows them lacking, overdeveloped in excess.
- Matsya (fish sign)A mark shaped like a fish. Indian tradition prizes it with the padma (lotus), shankha (conch), chakra (wheel) and dhvaja (flag) as signs of good fortune and virtue. Like every sign, it is read with the line and mount it sits on, never alone.
