How to Read Palm?
Usually a man's right hand and woman's left hand are studied for palmistry.
Lines
Different approaches exist in different traditions. Palmists may read them from left to right, or vice-a-versa.
Heart Line: This is the uppermost line on your palm that starts somewhere below the index finger and goes wide across the palm. It reflects the love-life and other emotional aspects of a person. Broken or chained line represents emotional trauma or turbulence.
Head Line: This is the line just below the heart line. It shows mental attributes of a person, such as intellect, learning, communication, etc.
Life Line: This is the most talked-about line among palmists. The line usually starts just above the thumb on the edge of a palm and rests in the wrist, following a semi-circular path. It shows the overall energy levels of a person. It reflects the vitality and liveliness of a person.
There are several other lines read by the palmists, for example, fate line, sun line, etc.
Shapes : Shapes are also an important aspect in palm reading.
Earth: These are broad and ruddy hands. They are square in size.
Water: These are short and oval-shaped hands. They have long and flexible fingers.
Air: These hands exhibit square or rectangular shaped palms. They are often very dry.
Fire: These hands have short palms and short fingers. Pinkish tint is often seen on these palms.
These four basic elements are common in almost all traditions; and they confer their own inherent qualities on the people possessing them. Certain mounds are also studied with shapes and lines for better foretelling.
