Palmistry is the art of divining ones fate through the features found on their hands.
History[]
Some sources say palmistry has its roots found in Hindu astrology, Chinese I Ching, and Romani fortune tellers.
Methods[]
Hand Shapes[]
The overall shape of the hand is an important aspect of palmistry. These shapes can help one determine the profession and the general personality of a person. Simply looking at the overall hand shape is said to be the quickest way to do a reading.
Finger Shapes[]
The shapes of the fingers hold importance depending on each finger. Each finger corresponds with a planet, and gives insight to many things such as ambition and knowledge.
The Mounts[]
In palmistry, the bumps of flesh found on the palm (also known as mounts) are very important in readings. These mounts are named after the classical planets.
Major Hand Lines[]
There are three major lines on the palm of the hand. These lines are known as the heart line, life line, and head line.
