Everything the skilled hand can shape, mend, or conjure.
Hasta is the open hand under Savitar, the golden impeller aspect of the sun who sets all things in motion. It grants craft, dexterity, wit, and a touch of the conjurer, the ability to make what is imagined appear in the palm. Healers, artisans, and clever hands are at home here.
