You Should Know This Before you for Palm Reading

Indian astrology is considered to be one of the origins of modern astrological studies. Kundali, palm reading or palmistry along with nadishastra are a few of the ways astrologers have been using in Asia to predict the future.

Astrology reports are made in palmistry on the basis of certain rules or assumptions and theories. Today in this article we would know the basics of palm reading so that we can at least be aware of the base on which the astrologers predict our future.

Today we will talk about Handshape and lines on the palm.

Depending on the type of palmistry being practiced, various qualities of the hand are considered while palm reading, including the shapes, lines, fingers, color, and texture of the skin. Apart from this, relative sizes of the palm and fingers are taken into consideration.

Usually, palm readers make four divisions of hands on the basis of the shape and other features.

·         Earth hands: These are wide or broad hands with square palms and fingers. These hands have a thick skin with ruddy color. Plus, the length of fingers equals the length of core palm (from wrist to the bottom of the fingers)

·         Air hands: These hands have square or rectangular palms with long fingers and often dry skin.  Plus, the length of fingers equals the length of core palm (from wrist to the bottom of the fingers).

·         Water hands: These hands are long, often with an oval-shaped palm. They exhibit long, flexible fingers with a conical shape. The length of the palm (from wrist to the bottom of the fingers) is usually less than the width of the palm but usually, equals to the length of the fingers.

·         Fire hands: These hands come with a square or rectangular palm, pink skin, and shorter fingers. The length of the palm (from wrist to the bottom of the fingers) is often greater than the length of the fingers.

Apart from the shape of the hands and other discussed features, the lined on the palms speak a lot too.

Almost every person’s palm has these three lines on them, namely, heart line, head line, and life line. And these lines are usually given the most importance by palm readers.

• The heart line is the first of the major lines considered by palm readers. It represents love and attraction. It is located at the top of the palm (under the fingers). This line reflects our emotional living; It also indicates romantic perspectives and intimate relationships. By a physical or biological perspective, the heart line is indirectly associated with heart health.

• The next line considered by palm readers is the head line. The head line is interpreted as a line which shows the way person’s mind works, including learning & communication style, intellectualism, etc.

• The life line is probably the most debatable line on the hand. This line starts from palm above the thumb and makes an arc towards the wrist. This line is believed to show the person's vitality and vigour, physical health or a general well being.

Apart from these three common and crucial lines, palm reading also considers the following lines on the palm. These lines are sun line, the girdle of Venus, Union lines, Mercury lines, Travel lines etc.

Palmistry considers all this information along with many other small and yet influencing data available on the palm of each person to make an astrology report of every individual.
