You quite literally hold your own future in your palms.
How?
That’s what you’ll get to know here.
The astrological process by which you can get an understanding of your past, present and future on the basis of your palms, is called Palmistry.
What is Palmistry?
Palmistry, also known as Chiromancy or Palm Reading, is an ancient practice of astrology based on interpreting the lines, shapes, mounts, and some other features of the palms to gain insights into an individual’s personality, character, and future.
Let’s take it one concept at a time. We start with the basic elements of Palmistry.
Basic Elements of the Palm:
Hand Types –
Palmists start by categorizing hands into various types, such as Earth, Air, Fire, and Water hands, based on the shape and proportion of the fingers and palm. Each hand type is associated with distinct personality traits.
Dominant Hand –
The dominant hand is typically the one you use for writing and other activities. It’s believed to reflect your current or future life, while the non-dominant hand represents your past, inherited traits, and potential.
Mounts –
Mounts are raised areas of flesh on the palm at the base of each finger and the center of the palm. They are named after planets and are associated with specific qualities and tendencies.
The Lines of the Palm:
Since childhood, you might have been told, “Look, your life line is so long! You’ll live a long life.”. The question that always lingered in your head is how do you know whether one is going to have a long life or not. Well, we are here to answer that long lasting question of yours.
Let’s see the different kinds of lines on the palms of our hands.
Heart Line –
The heart line curves along the top of the palm. It is associated with the matters of the heart. It can reveal information about your emotional nature, the kind of relationships you might have and your romantic experiences, both in future and in the past.
Head Line –
The head line, which runs horizontally below the heart line, relates to your intellect, thought processes and decision-making skills. It can indicate a person’s way of communication, their intellectual nature, and problem-solving skills. Unlike the Heart Line, the Head Line deals with the matters of the head.
Life Line –
The life line arcs around the base of the thumb and it represents one’s physical health, life path, and major life events. Contrary to popular belief, it doesn’t necessarily predict the length of one’s life. So, when someone tells you about the length of your life, don’t believe them unless they are genuine astrologers like the ones here at Astrokun.
Fate Line –
The fate line, also known as the Destiny line, is not always present in everyone’s hand. If it is visible in your palm, it will provide insights into your career, achievements, and the direction in which your life might move.
Sun Line –
The sun line, or Apollo line, represents creativity and fame. It also depicts artistic talents. It is found at the base of the ring finger and can indicate a person’s potential for recognition in their chosen field of work or hobby.
Mercury Line –
The mercury line (Health line) is associated with health and healing abilities. It can reveal information about one’s physical well-being and potential health issues.
Size and shape of fingers:
Palmistry is not only dependent upon the lines that you find on your palm but it is also dependent upon the shape and size of your 5 fingers.
How does the size of your finger affect you?
Here it is. Palmists analyze the relative lengths of the fingers, including the index, middle, ring, and little fingers. These lengths may provide insights into your own personality. For example, if all your fingers are approximately of the same length, then you might have a well-balanced approach to life but if the fingers are longer than the palm, you might be a very analytical and pragmatic person. Also, a long Index finger may indicate leadership qualities and on the other hand, a shorter Index finger might suggest that you have a preference for detail-oriented jobs.
What role do finger shapes play in Palmistry?
Well, the shapes of the fingertips, such as pointed, square, conic, or spatulate, can also reveal personality traits. For instance, pointed fingertips may indicate a creative and intuitive nature.
Hand Texture and Flexibility:
The texture of the hand, including smoothness, roughness, or softness, can offer insights into a person’s personality and physical constitution.
Smooth texture –
Smooth skin on the palm is often associated with individuals who are considered calm, easygoing, and sensitive. People with smooth palms may have a preference for a harmonious and peaceful lifestyle.
Rough texture –
Rough or coarse skin on the palm is thought to be indicative of a more rugged and practical personality. These individuals are often seen as hardworking, determined, and grounded.
Moist or damp texture –
Moist or damp skin on the palm is thought to signify individuals who are emotionally expressive and open. They may have a strong capacity for nurturing and caring for others. This texture is often associated with individuals who are in touch with their feelings.
Calluses –
Calluses or hardened areas on the palm are associated with physical labor. They suggest a strong work ethic and patience. These individuals may have a practical approach to life and may excel in fields that require manual hard work
Hand Flexibility:
Another interesting element of Palmistry on which the predictions are dependent on, is your Hand Flexibility. The flexibility of the hand, including the fingers, wrist joint and the finger joints can indicate one’s adaptability and openness to change. Let’s look at this element in a detailed way.
Flexible Hands –
Individuals with flexible hands are often seen as adaptable, open-minded, and emotionally responsive. They tend to be more versatile in their approach to life and can easily adjust to changing circumstances. These individuals may be open to new ideas and experiences, making them creative and dynamic.
Stiff Hands –
Stiff hands are associated with individuals who are more structured, methodical, and practical in their approach to life. They may have a strong sense of discipline and prefer routines and stability. These individuals tend to be reliable and dependable, but they may be less inclined to embrace change.
Flexible joints/fingers –
The flexibility of the fingers is also considered. Long fingers that are flexible may indicate a person who is intellectually inclined, curious, and open to exploring new ideas and concepts. They may have a strong desire for mental stimulation and learning.
Stiff fingers –
Stiff fingers, especially if accompanied by a stiff palm, can suggest a person who is more practical and action-oriented. They may prefer hands-on activities and may excel in physical pursuits. These individuals are often seen as reliable and grounded.
Time in Palmistry
Palmistry is that branch of astrology which is majorly dependent on Time. The lines on the palm of your hands might change as you grow older. These changes might occur because of your life choices and thus the portrayal of your future by the lines on your palm might change because choices in life have the power to change the course of one’s life. Palmists use timing techniques to predict certain events or changes which are likely to occur in one’s life. This often involves observing changes in the lines and mounts over time.
In conclusion, Palmistry is a form of divination and it is not fully explained with the help of science. Interpretations vary from palmist to palmist. Subjectivity is a major characteristic of Palmistry. The practice of Palmistry should be seen as a form of self-reflection and exploration rather than a definitive route of one’s life.
