Palmistry or chiromancy is the art of characterization and foretelling the future through the study of the palm, also known as palm reading, or chirology. (source | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palmistry)

This is just an intro session.

I wanted to share the five major lines on any hand.

The meaning are derived from the size of the line, the depth (or prominence) and the curvature of the lines.  However, to begin with, I think you can just concentrate on the length & the prominence.

heart

- The heart line denotes well the matters of the heart.  The deeper the line the deeper the affections & afflictions.  the longer the line, the more chances of being ruled by the heart.

if you see a split end, know this - you will always be in two minds.

head

- the longer the line the more ability to think on various topics and use your mental faculties.  the deeper the line, displays singular focus or capacity for it.

if you see a split end, know this - you are inclined to yo-yo on your decisions.

life

- the longer the line - longer the life.  if a break appears it may denote an accident or life threatening time.  some palmists say the time starts from the wrist and others say its from the palm side.  

fame

- below the ring finger.  others may call it the scandal line.  again the length and deepness of the line will denote the fame that may come along.

luck

- runs parallel to the life line.  for people who believe in lady luck, it denotes a life of being 'lucky'.  fortune may not be denoted by this, but fortunate is.

TIP | The cleaner the hand, the calmer the mind.  if your hand has too many smaller lines criss crossing then it may indicate someone who thinks a lot and just plain, worries a lot.

personal tip | take a photocopy of your hand every year on a particular date, your birthday or the new year or something and see how it changes over the years.

the results will amaze you over a period of 5-10-15 yrs & more...
