hath men yah chathi anguli jis anguli ke sath juri hui hoti hai, usi anguli ki kriyashilta par atirikt anguli ki kriya nirbhar karti hai arthat is atirikt anguli ka apna karie svatatran astitva nahin hato. yah to mrit anguli ke rup men apni upasthiti darj karati rahti hai. isilie madhyakalin yug men arai aj bhi kuch log is atirikt anguli ko shalya chikitsa dvara katva diya karte hain. kuch shadhekartaon ka mat hai ki pratyake 1,00,000 bachchon men lagabhag 50 bachche aise paida hote hain jinke hath men yah atirikt anguli pai jati hai. hath men is atirikt chathi anguli ki sthiti do prakar se pai jati hai.
pahli sthiti men chathi agunli kanishthika anguli ki jurva anguli ke rup men dikhai deti hai. dusri sthiti men yah chathi anguli, anguthe ke sath juri hui dikhai deti hai. parachin mat ke ansuar chathi anguli ko saubhagya ke suchak ke rup men mana jata raha hai. jabki madhyakalin yug men is chathi agunli ka sanbdhan jadu tane men mahir vyakti se mana jata tha aur chathi anguli ke dharak vyakti ko jadu-tone, indrajal aur mayavi vidyaon men parangat samjha jata tha. adhunik matanusar chah anguliyon ke dharak vyakti ko vishvas ke yogya nahin paya jata hai.
yadi yah chathi anguli kanishthika se juri ho to aise vyakti bilkul bhi vishvas ke yogya nahin hote hain. aise vyakti apne jivan men bat-bat par keval jhuth hi bolte hain, islie aise log vishvas ke yogya bilkul bhi nahin hote hain. janashruti ke anusar 'aini bolen' jo ki 'hainri' (ashtama) ki patni evan elijabeth (prathm) ki man thi, inke donon hathon men chah-chah anguliyan thin. apni isi prasiddhi ke karan ye apne in hathon ko hamesha lanbi astin ke vastron se dhakakar rakhti thi. levin aini bolen ke pratipakshi un par hamesha vastav men ek dayan hone ke arop lagate the. prachin matanusar chah anguliyon ko saubhagya ka parichayak mante th,e
