Palm Reading – A Palm Reading How-To For Anyone

Palm reading, or palmistry, is a very fascinating subject. Whether you want to be an established palm reader, or you want to do palm reading just for fun, there are a lot of insights that can be gained from this art.

Palm reading

What Is Palmistry?

Palmistry is based on the principle that the lines on your palm can tell the story of your life. Each line has a particular reference to a certain aspect of your life, including relationships, travel, career, health, and more. With palmistry, you can identify your strengths and weaknesses, and subsequently learn to balance them out for the betterment of your inner being.

Palmistry is said to have its roots in India, thousands of years ago. From there it grew in popularity in the Far East, and then went on to be practised all over Europe, in such places as Greece and Rome. Studies show that palmistry was widely regarded by the ancient Hindus, Persians, Hebrews, Tibetans, Chinese, and Babylonians.

Getting Started

Before you start to do palm reading, you must know which palm to start with. Traditionally, palmists believed that the left hand of a woman, and the right hand of a man, are the ones that should be examined.
Modern palmists, however, believe that a person’s dominant hand (the one with which they write) , represents their practical side, and will show you how a person has applied their ambitions and talents to their lives. A person’s non-dominant hand is their emotional side, and will reveal more about their personality. So it is important to read both hands and not just one.

Identifying The Four Principal Lines And What They Represent

As you begin to read a palm, there are four distinctive lines in each of your palms that you should look for. These are:

1. The Heart Line

Description – This represents all matters related to love and relationships. The heart line on the left hand

Other Things To Look For On Your Palms

There are some other things you may pay attention to besides the lines on your palms. These are:

Texture – The texture of your hand may say a lot about your personality. Someone with soft hands may be sensitive and refined, while those with rough course hands may also have a crude, harsh personality.

Nails – Long nails that taper at the tips denotes creativity, while short, squares nails, show an orderly, methodical nature.

Color – The color of a person’s hands may have particular reference to their physical health. If you have pinkish hands, you are very healthy. Yellow hands show excessive bile production, while bluish hands refer to a problem with blood circulation.

Flexibility– The flexibility of your hands show how adjusting and adaptable you can be. The more flexible your hands, the more adaptable you are. A stiff hand points to a rigid personality, fixed in opinions and views.

While palm reading can tell you a lot about every single arena of a person’s life, be aware that your palm lines change during the course of your life. Palm reading is a very valuable tool that can help you make decisions in life based on what your palms reveal.

    So it has been a boon for the students of palm reading. I also had a past-life reading from a psychic once, that, although, not as in-depth as a regression, was fascinating and extremely helpful to me in this life all the same. There are many kinds of nails in the science of palm reading such as: long, short, broad and thin nails.
