Baby lizard

Something suddenly and unexpectedly fell on me from the top of the car seat while I was travelling. My reflex action was shrugging of shoulders and moving of hands with a shriek to remove that. I saw a baby lizard running in between the space to hide leaving its dancing tail behind.

Should I kill it after searching or just leave the situation as such?

  2. It all depends : (but I would have a nice bath after reaching home .)

    In a book on omens there is a list of no less than sixty-five places on the person which may forebode good or evil, if touched by a lizard in its fall. If it falls upon the centre of one's head, it forebodes a quarrel or disease ; if on the temples, evil to one's brother ; if on the front of the head, evil to oneself ; if on the head covering, evil to males, death to females; if on the tips of one's hair, death ; if on the right cheek, good for males, evil for females ; if on the left cheek, good for females, evil for males and so on through the whole body right down to the toes, and even to the nails on the toes. For instance, if a lizard falls on the toes of the right foot, it denotes wealth ; but if on the nails of the same foot, a quarrel; if on the edge of the nails of the same foot, annoyance or suffering is betokened. If in the fall it touches either the toes, or the nails, or the edge of the nails of the left foot, it is an omen of wealth and good fortune.

  3. If that happened to me I would have had a Cataplexy spell and would probably still be laying there not able to move....If you find it, I would release it into the wilderness, but set it on the right foot first, interesting comment above me. take care.
