palmistry

2. PALMISTRY : LINES ON HAND, MOUNTS Palm reading is a personal experience which uses lines on hand, mounts to link the intentions of our heart with the reasoning of our mind. Each hand is unique and different. They give us a step by step recording of an individual’s life from birth to death. Palmistry remains unrelated to worldly events, environment or any external conditions.

3. Our hands contain patterns of power. A persons health, diet, daily life encounters and many other inner perspectives are also recorded. These patterns are made up of lines on hand, mounts or various other markings. The more a person understands the message in his/her palms, more in control they can get of their life. Our hands are a reflection of our soul, they tell us about ourselves. By the time we are born, we bring a map of our life in our hands. This map is a recording of our life till death. Using this map and our gift of free will, we can become masters of our own destiny.

4. THE HAND OF PAST, OR FUTURE

5. Before we start off , it is necessary we know which hand represents our past or potential, and which is the hand of our future. Basically when a person is right handed, then the left hand is regarded as the hand we are born with and the right hand is how we make of life with the setbacks and opportunities that we are handed.

6. For most people the right hand may be the stronger one and can be considered as the hand of future. If a person uses both hands equally then they can try different tests and figure out which hand is the more prominent one. The weaker of the two represents the past.THE HAND OF - POTENTIAL AND PAST The hand of the past denotes traits from past lives and pre-birth conditions giving information on our possibilities, i.e. what we have come into this life with. Here it is revealed what potential future prospects and abilities we possess. If the hand is not that full of markings or a little bare, then it simply denotes that the person will be a late developer. It means that the persons life may start showing positive pattern of events later than most. This hand also symbolizes the subconscious of a persons mind.THE HAND OF - PRESENT AND THE FUTURE The right hand is the working hand of the present and the future. We may discover that the hand of past has shown considerable possibilities for the person, but these possibilities just may not show up on the hand of the future. This means that they have not materialized yet or the person has not followed it through. Also there may be markings which were not there on the hand of potential but are now present on the hand of future. This means or indicates that the person has developed some traits or made opportunities for them self as they have progressed in life. Also this hand symbolizes the conscious mind. SHAPE OF THE HAND The basic shape of the hand of a person gives us a reflection of a persons main qualities. There may be positive and negative traits shown by the shape of a persons hand. The key here is to strike a balance. The two basic hand shapes are :- 1.The SQUARE hand , which shows the persons down to earth nature. 2.The CONIC, which is round and creative. There are also other hand shapes called as psychic, speculate and philosophic hands, which are variations of the square and conic hand shapes.

7. THE SUN LINE

8. The sun line or the Apollo line is the sister line to the line of fate, ie a second fate line . The sun lines presence gives a boost to the existing fate line. A strong sun line will always compensate for a weak fate line. A strong sun line can be possessed by many well known people in the field of arts, music and writers. The sun line shows a love of all the creative arts and things of beauty. This line can also indicate the possibility of wealth without working, like inherited money or perhaps winning the lottery and also happiness and good fortune. PLACEMENT The line of sun originates from the left-hand side of the palm when looking at the right hand, and visa versa on the left palm. A long prominent line, free from adverse marks and from liners running across it, the grater the chance of riches coming into the persons life. If this line is absent ,it shows that the person may have all kind of excellent qualities, but their lives will be lived unrecognized . Many palms do not show this line until halfway up the up the hand. This may mean that the person will finally get the recognition that they deserve in the second half of their lives. DIVISION OF THE SUN LINE THE BEGINNING - BIRTH TO 25 YEARS It is very fortunate for a person to have a strong sun line in the beginning years of their lines. It indicates that there is a good chance for personal success, fulfillment and happiness in the early years upto 25 years of age. THE MID SECTION - 25 TO 50 YEARS If there is absence of the line of sun in this section, then it means that the person may have bad luck and his projects and plans may have come to nothing. Obstacles have caused the persons progress or ambition to remain unfullfilled.If this line appears. This bad luck can be overcome in the end section of the line which shows a persons good fortunes returning.THE END SECTION - 50 TO 75 YEARS If the sun line rises from above the heart line near the end of the palm, this is an especially fortunate sign, even if it hasn't shown up until now. The person might have experienced early struggle in life, but somehow they will always have been rescued at the last moment, some thing would always turn up at the last moment just when they really needed it. These people may not become very rich at this stage, but they will not be without riches also.

9. THE LINE OF HEALTH

10. The line of mercury is the health line of the person. It is situated on the outer side of the palm underneath the fourth finger. The advantage of a missing line of health is that there is perfect digestion and functioning of the stomach which brings a clear head and abounding energy that are essential qualities for business dealings

11. A straight line of health without any markings is desirable. This indicates that there will be good health and partiality of life. PLACEMENT The line of health starts from the base of the hand near the wrist straight up the palm to just under the fourth finger. If the line is strong and straight with no breaks present and if the life line occurs to be weak , then the mercury line will act as a boost to it , to support logetivity. If there are breaks, then it represents a concern with health. This line monitors the persons performance in all aspects of life. DIVISION OF THE MERCURY LINE THE BEGINNING - BIRTH TO 25 YEARS If there is a line at this early period it could show poor health as a child. It may happen that sometimes the line is only present frm birth to young adulthood. If this line disappears from the middle of the palm then it simply indicates that the person has overcome their earlier delicate health problems. THE MID SECTION - 25 TO 50 YEARS If the line of health begins from this period ,then the person is likely to develop health problems during this period. But if the mercury line is still there from the early stages and continues to be there, then that persons health has not improved from childhood. If there are criss cross lines running over the line at the mid-section shows that worrying helps to keep the health impaired. THE END SECTION - 50 TO 75 YEARS If the line of health appears in this area then it is best that it is a clean and not too-deep a line with no adverse markings. We may find in the ending section that there are many islands or chaining present. This usually indicates that the person has been into some addictions and his body is not very physically fit. Extra health care needs to be taken from here on.

12. LINE OF LIFE

13. The line of life is probably the most important and supreme line on the hand. It not only foretells us longetivity but also other important aspects of our life. The main aspect that this line shows is the persons life energy force vitality and zest.

14. The longer and stronger this line, the greater the life energy force, zest and drive of the individual. A break in most of the lines present in the hand can be seen as being disruptive, but on the line of life it can indicate a complete change in life, such as a new home or a career or a new perspective in life. Another kind of information that this line gives us, is regarding a persons physical constitution and strength, as well as the probable course their life will take. PLACEMENT The line of life starts at the side of the hand about less than an inch below the index finger and runs down towards the wrist ending below the thumb. The life line surrounds the mount of Venus (the fleshy part of the base of the thumb). DIVISION OF THE LIFE LINETHE BEGINNING - BIRTH TO 25 YEARS If this line starts with many islands with a weak appearance, it shows that the person has had a poor start in life. This indicates childhood difficulties that the person might have experienced early on in life. Also early on in the beginning of this line is recorded our relationship with our parents after birth onwards, and early experiences in the world. MID LIFE SECTION - 25 TO 50 YEARS In our mid life, a well shaped arch forming a regular course denotes the ability to look at life objectively, assessing the positive and negative aspects calmly and sensibly. Any little lines attached to the line of life, pointing upwards refer to some help given at those particular times to further ambitions. If the line of life crosses way over the palm to the middle of the hand or beyond, it shows a very adventurous life. Travelling will also be a key factor to achieving their goal and they will strive constantly for personal freedom. THE END SECTION - 50 TO 75 YEARS The longer this line continues down the hand in a strong clear manner, the better the heath of a person will be. This shows that the person has continuing vitality and zest even in the declining years. If the line ends under the mount of Venus and curves around the ball of the thumb, then it shows that the person will no travel far and would prefer to be on home ground. If the line of life heads across the palm heading towards the mount of moon, then the person is an adventurer and is not destined for a conventional routine existence.

15. LINE OF HEART

16. The line of heart is known as the curve of creativity and represents our emotional life. It also indicated whether a person is warm and giving or introverted and cold. Emotions change or fluctuate continually, as they are experiences of our creative self.

17. All the fluctuations in turn lead to markings on the heart line like breaks, chaining etc. A long straight line that runs across a persons palm almost always indicates a coldness in the persons temperament. This line can be said to be a record that contains both emotional state of being and physical condition of the heart. Numerous fragmented smaller hair-lines coming off the main line indicate emotional breakdown caused by fear and fatigue. PLACEMENT The line of heart is read from the mount of mercury. This line is located at the top of the palm and travels roughly parellel to the head line and just above it nearer to the fingers. This line starts at the base of the mount of mercury, which is under the little finger, and continues straight across the hand, usually ending in a curve finishing in the middle of the jupiter mount. This is a perfect heart line, which is, needless to say, very rare. DIVISION OF THE HEART LINE THE BEGINNING - BIRTH TO 25YEARS If a person was unhappy in his childhood, then this will be recorded in detail at the beginning of the line. The circumstances that actually that caused the unfortunate emotional upsets will be recorded on the life line. If the line of heart starts high up, curving around the mercury point, then it can indicate a talent for the mystic arts. It is also a much desired placement as it foretells a vary happy nature. THE MID SECTION - 25 TO 50 YEARS The deeper the line is in this section, the more able the person is to enjoy the purely physical aspects of love. Islands in this section of the line of heart are always a weakening sign, probably showing illness and heart problems. These people should keep a close check on their health and keep fit.THE END SECTION - 50 TO 75 YEARS A descending line of heart, where the end dips down toward the beginning of the head line, reveals a jealous nature, possessive in relationships. When the end of the line branches into three lines, this is a good marking signifying a balance between the emotions, common sense and physical pleasure. If the middle branch of the line of heart ends between the index finger and the third finger, it indicates we will emotionally attain the partner we have been looking for.

18. LINE OF HEAD

19. The line of head reveals our mental capacity and intellectual prowess. This line also shows the extent and depth of a persons reasoning power, memory, career potential and common sense attributes of the person. The perfect line of head which is rarely seen is slightly curved in the middle .

20. PLACEMENT The line of head travels straight across the upper part of the palm, positioned below the heart line and above the life line. If the life line slopes down, then it indicates a good balance between imagination and logic. If the line is delicate and weak, then the persons talents would be better directed towards the arts, and it also shows that the person is less inclined to have the emotional stamina to achieve. If the head line does not have a curve at all and just goes straight across the palm, then it shows the person has immense business acumen, great concentration power and is very practical as well as determined. DIVISION OF THE HEAD LINETHE BEGINNING - BIRTH TO 25 YEARS The stronger this line is at the beginning, the better the chance the person has to utilize their reasoning power later on. If the line is very thick or broad at the beginning, the person will only be happy if they get their own way. THE MID SECTION - 25 TO 50 YEARS If the mid section of the head line is free of black dots, breaks or islands, then the person will have a relatively hassle free adult-hood and life will treat them kindly. When the start of the line is strong and the middle is weak, then it portrays that the person has not fulfilled their potential. Usually outside forces have interrupted their ability to concentrate. THE END SECTION - 50 TO 75 YEARS If the end of the line slopes slightly down towards the wrist, then the person has a good imagination and will be creative in their life. If the end section has any breaks in the line or any black dots then depression could be a possibility and their intellect will also be poorly balanced.

21. LINE OF FATE

22. The line of fate is also known as the line of Saturn, because of where it ends. The line of fate gives us information about career and work prospects also. The strength of this line determines our chance of achieving a decent standard of living based on the goals we have set for ourselves

23. PLACEMENT This line is situated in the middle of the palm, usually running up in a vertical line from the base of the palm just above the wrist towards the third finger. When this line is strong and without any markings, it shows that the person will have minimum no of problems and a secure life. If the line is weak with markings or breaks in it, then it indicates that the person hasn't found their role or career path in life. DIVISION OF THE FATE LINE THE BEGINNING - BIRTH TO 25 YEARS The first inch and a half on the line depicts the early years. A plain uninterrupted starting start with a strong line low down the palm near the wrist shows the person was well directed for many years and basically had an idea of what they wanted to do. People who are not so sure of their intentions or goals in life will have several fragmented lines at the starting of the line of fate. The fragmented lines also show the constant change in course and direction of that persons life.THE MID SECTION - 25 TO 50 YEARS This section portrays the building years of a person's life for career and fortune. The life of a person spanning between twenty and forty is the time when a lot of changes can occur. If the line is straight and clear in the mid section ,then it indicates that the person has achieved, direction, purpose and prosperity that puts the person in control of their endeavors. If there occurs a break in the fate line in this mid section then it shows that there is a change of perspective in terms of lifestyle and work. THE END SECTION - 50 TO 75 YEARS By around this time period in a persons life, their line of fate may become thin or can stop altogether when the persons working years come to an end. If faint lines split of the main one, then it indicates that the person has taken up new interests or hobbies. A chain marking in the fate line as it crosses the heart line may indicate trouble in home life. If the line of fate runs straight up to the base of the third finger, then it indicates that the person would keep working until the end of their days.
