Events that are certain to happen are foreshadowed by omens. People all across the world have this belief. It was regarded by the ancients as a message or signal from the God. The occurrences might be favorable or unfavorable in character. Hindus have a strong belief in superstitions and omens that predict the future events. In fact, they consider the study of omens to be a science. The Sanskrit term for omen is "shakunam," and the understanding of omens is known as Shakuna Shastra.
When a lizard lands on a person's body, it portends either generally good or very bad luck, depending on where it lands. Gauli shastra for the most part is the science of lizards falling in a subtle way. According to this shastra, a lizard's every movement mostly is significant, and there mostly are at least 65 spots on the basically human body where the lizard would for all intents and purposes land, foretelling good and terrible omens in a very major way. When a lizard generally falls on one's head, according to this shastra, it specifically is not a favorable omen, but rather a terrible one, which generally is quite significant. It denotes a disagreement or quarrel, pretty contrary to popular belief. If the fall occurs in the middle of the head, it for the most part is a sign of illness.
According to a well known astrological literature, if lizard lands on any region of the body other than the stomach, navel, or chest, it is a favorable omen. If the lizard appears on the right side of a man's body and the left side of a woman's body, it is regarded lucky.

If the fall occurs on the back of the head, it is considered very bad luck for the maternal uncle. The omen is negative for one's brother if the fall is on the right side of the head. If it lands in the center of the head, it denotes the personal sickness. It foretells death if the fall occurs on the crown of the head. If the fall is on the rear of the crown, it is a sign of good fortune, but if it is on the front, it is a portent of bad luck for the maternal uncle. If the fall is limited to the hair, it denotes problems.
If a lizard lands on a person's head, it portends riches, land, or the fate of a great king or ruler.
There is an amazing anecdote of a lizard dropping on the head of Biju Patnaik, the Chief Minister of Orissa, right before the polls on May 16, 2009, when he was running for a third term in office. When he opened the doors of his drawing room to see off another political leader who had paid him a visit, a lizard landed on his head. This omen prophesied his return to power for a third term of triumph. This made his party members ecstatic.
