- 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.
- Life lineThe line that curves round the mount of Venus. It shows vitality and the way life is lived, never how long: a short life line does not mean a short life.
- PhalangesThe three sections of each finger: the top, with the nail, for the mental world, the middle for the practical and the base for the material. The longest shows where that finger's energy goes.
- Head lineThe line across the middle of the palm. It shows thinking: a straight one is practical, a sloping one imaginative.
- Anguli (fingers)The fingers, each belonging to a graha: the index to Jupiter, the middle to Saturn, the ring to the Sun and the little finger to Mercury. The thumb is read on its own: its top shows will, its middle logic and its base love and vitality.
