If you are anything like me, chances are that you may feel uncertain about a certain area of your life that you might want to improve or inquire about, like your relationship(s) for example. Today many people like a masseuse or psychologist are used to help us get better, but one that is really becoming more popular is the use of a palm reader.
If you look into palm reading you might hear it called chiromancy or another term depending where in the world you are and what kind of cultures are around. The ancient art of palm reading, which professionals now are even called "hand analysts" have been tracked back thousands of years to ancient Greece and it's inception was believed to happen in India.
Palm reading has close ties to astrology and also Chinese Yijing fortune telling practices and many will also tell you that the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle found out about palmistry by word of mouth when it was first said to have traveled East and West when the Hindu sage Valmiki was the first to write about palm reading in India.
Outside of just reading the lines in the palm many readers will take a look at other features of the hand such as shape and length of fingers. More often than not a reader is going to study and assess the 4 most common lines on the palm along with any visible mounts on the hand they may see.
The process typically begins with the dominant hand of the individual being read. The dominant hand is considered to be the one used most often. Since palm reading has some roots to Greek mythology some belief that each feature of the palm and hand that is studied is related to a God or Goddess.
One Greek God that may be referenced when reading the palm of an individual is Apollo as he is believed to express himself in the ring of the finger. Often this reveals things like wealth and fame of the person. Moving on from there a reader will often look at any palm mounts, the other lines of the palm, finger length and also hand shape.
The shape of your hand will be directly tied to one of four different shapes of hands which will either be the water, the air, the fire, or the earth hand. Most commonly readers are going to assess and look at your fate line if you have one since it's not always visible. Readers will also look at 3 other common lines which are the health, heart and head lines. If a reader notice any visible mounts like the Saturn, Jupiter or Venus mounts those will also be read.
This seemed like it might be a little bit too good to be true that someone who could gather such valuable insight to us as people by simply reading our palm lines. After the first time reading my palm I was instantly hooked to learn more so I could know and understand more about myself.
