PALMISTRY- TYPES OF HANDS

The palm is composed of up of small bones. There are nearly 14 bones joined together which give shape to the palm. In the front part of these bones there are three more pieces of bones composing each finger and 2 more composing each thumb. The upper ends of the bones are protected with nails.
From the wrist up to the end of the finger of Saturn is termed as "Hand". According to the science of Palmistry there are different types of hands. They are:
Very Small hand- Persons of this kind of hand are narrow minded and suspicious by nature. They quarrel for small gains. They give first priority for their selfish aims. They talk ill of others. They do not contribute anything for the society.

Such people though able and competent do not fully succeed in their lives.

Primary Hand- This kind of hand is commonly coarse, heavy and fatty. The formation of the hand is unsymmetrical and the fingers appear to be unsymmetrical. Such persons are termed to be fully civilized. But they are totally materialistic. The main aim of these people are food, clothes and a house. They do not understand the value of life.They remain fully devoid of the values of life. Such people are laborious. Breaking of law is very easy for them. Such persons come under the category of criminals.

THE DOMINANT&NON-DOMINANT HAND

According to hast jyotish, our dominant hand relates to the conscious aspect of our personality. It reflects how aware we are of our self and our environment, and shows how people perceive us. The non-dominant hand relates more to our subconscious, hidden emotions, and habits of which we might be unaware.
Our non-dominant hand is like the root system of a plant, while the dominant hand can be compared to the observable stem, leaves, and flowers. Our subconscious roots reflect our ingrained habits. The flowers represent the karmic resolves we have consciously made. The lines of both the dominant and non-dominant hands change. However, when the lines of the non-dominant hand change, our very roots are shifting.
If we are right-handed, the right hand relates to our conscious, and our left hand to our subconscious. If we are left-handed, the reverse will be true: the left hand will reflect our conscious and the right, our subconscious.

LOVE LINE IN THE HANDS

love in the palm of your hand: palmistry basics
When you meet somebody new, it can be fun to "check them out" using different techniques for character analysis. Palm reading is an age-old practice.
We've gathered up some basic palmistry principles that are easy to learn, with a special emphasis on love and attachment.
Which Hand Should You Read?
One of the first questions people ask concerning palm reading is: Which hand do you look at? The answer is: Both, and It depends. 
Students of palmistry distinguish between the active and passive hand. A right-handed person's active hand will be his or her right hand; and the left hand is considered the passive hand. Similarly, a left-handed person's active hand is the left hand; and his or her passive hand is the right hand.
Generally, the passive hand is read for inherited characteristics and potential.
Look to the active hand for changes to these inherited traits.
As a general rule, when the lines and markings on the active and passive hands are quite different, it shows a person who has actively worked toward self-development.
The Size of the Hand
Remember to consider the size of the hand relative to the size of the body.
Generally, a large hand suggests a person who spends more time thinking than acting. A person with a relatively small hand is thought to be more active, spending less time thinking about what to do.
The Shape of the Hand
There are four general shapes of the hand, and these are related to the four elements of Air, Earth, Fire, and Water:
When considering the length of the palm: 
When the vertical and horizontal measurements of the palm are approximately equal, it is considered a square palm.
A long palm is when its vertical measurement is longer than the horizontal measurement.
Fingers are considered long when the length of the middle finger is equal to or greater than three-quarters of the length (height) of the palm.
Fingers are considered short when the length of the middle finger is less than three-quarters of the length of the palm.
Air Hands are characterized by a square palm, long fingers, and thin, clear lines. These are the hands of intellectual and sociable people. They are often restless and in need of change and stimulation, mostly of the mental kind. As lovers, these people look for mental rapport above all else.
Earth Hands are characterized by a square palm, short fingers, strong or thick skin, and deep, clear, and straight lines. These are the hands of practical, down-to-earth people with strong vitality. They often have a strong connection to nature and the outdoors. As lovers, they are generally quite dependable and straightforward. 
Fire Hands are characterized by long palms, short fingers, plentiful and prominent lines, and firm, warm skin. These are the hands of risk-takers and action-oriented people. As lovers, they are positive and confident, willing to take the lead.
Water Hands are characterized by long palms, long fingers, plenty of fine lines that are not always clear, and soft, damp skin. These hands indicate a creative, emotional person. As lovers, they are sensitive, vulnerable, a little naive, and focused on caring and being cared for. 
The Thumb
How flexible is the thumb? The flexibility of the thumb is thought to measure how adaptable a person is. The more flexible the thumb, the more easy-going the character is. A lack of flexibility suggests an obstinate person.
Does the thumb have a "waist"? If the thumb narrows in the base phalanger of the thumb, the person is thought to employ tact and diplomacy in his or her relations with others.
Some consider the relative length of the thumb as an indicator of faithfulness. Longer thumbs are thought to indicate stronger characters who are faithful to others and to themselves.
The Lines on the Palm
The palm generally consists of the Major Lines, Secondary Lines, and Minor Lines. 
A palm with numerous fine lines in addition to the Major Lines indicates a rather complex, sensitive personality that is especially vulnerable to outside influences and worries. In general, the fewer the lines, the more straightforward a person is. These people live their lives in a more direct and simple manner. 
The Major Lines:
Generally, there are three prominent lines on a palm. These are the Major Lines. 
In the palm at right, the top horizontal line ending at point A is the Heart Line. This line indicates the affections, so it is of particular interest to those reading a palm for love indicators. The higher this line is, the more passionate, and oftentimes jealous the person is. A heart line that goes right across the hand suggests a person who is very controlled emotionally. A heart line that curves upward towards the Jupiter finger (the index finger) indicates a warm-hearted, reasonable, and affectionate nature in relationships. Crosses and breaks on the Heart line suggest periods of sadness and sorrow in love.
The middle horizontal line at point B is the Head Line. This line indicates the type of intelligence a person possesses. The space between the beginning of the Head Line and the beginning of the Life Line, if any, indicates the level of cautiousness a person possesses. When these lines are joined at the beginning, the person has a rather cautious, and sometimes fearful, nature. The further apart, the more confident, risk-taking individual.
The curved line that generally swoops from near the base of the palm to the point between the thumb and first finger at point C is the Life Line. In terms of relationships, a Life line that is wide, leaving plenty of room for the Mount of Venus, is indicative of a person with an expansive and giving nature in love. The closer the Life line is to the thumb, the less generous a person is with his/her energy and time. 
An interesting secondary line concerning relationships is called the Line of Attachment. Some call these lines Marriage Lines. These lines appear just above the heart line (in our diagram, just above point A). Light, fine horizontal lines found here are thought to indicate affairs that are not deep commitments. One long, clear line suggests a long-standing and happy marriage or commitment. When there is more than one long, deep line, the lower one is thought to describe the earlier relationship in the person's life.
The Mounts
There are a number of mounts in different positions of the palm, and these are associated with planets. The Mount of Venus is of particular interest to those looking for indicators of love in the palm. This mount is found beside the thumb and within the curved Life Line. Generally, flashiness here indicates a love of pleasure. A fleshy and firm Mount of Venus indicates a strongly sexual nature, and a flabby mount here shows a low level of sexual vitality. 
Prominent horizontal lines on the Mount of Venus are thought to indicate a person with powerful charm over lovers. Plenty of fine lines going in different directions on this mount (often looking like a grid) suggests a person who is quite complex in the area of love. A changeable, worrisome character may frustrate lovers. In general, lots of fine lines here indicate a person who is easily influenced by outside forces. This person may be easy to dupe by partners. A triangle on this mount is thought to indicate a person who may have extramarital affairs, and a crescent shape (moon) here suggests one who has powerful seductive powers.

WHO WAS CHEIRO

Cheiro is the professional name of one of the greatest and most famous palm readers in history. Since he was good at Cheiromancy, he named himself after it.
He was Count Louis Hamon, whose birth name was William John Warner. Although he claimed to be an aristocrat, this is not certain.
He was born on 1st November 1866 in Ireland, worked in England, travelled widely, and later moved to California, USA.
The picture here is of Cheiro at around 50 years of age. See a rare photo of a youthful Cheiro here.
Some of his ancestors may have been gypsies, who are known to be well-versed in the oracle arts. He did say that he inherited his sixth sense from his mother. He also travelled to India to learn the occult sciences from Indian mystics.
Cheiro collected and studied thousands of palm prints before he felt competent enough to offer palm readings as a professional. His clients included aristocrats, politicians and even royalty. He became very famous and wealthy reading for other famous and wealthy figures of his day.
He was also an expert numerologist, using the Chaldean number system. Numerology today consists of 2 systems - the Chaldean system, popularised by Cheiro, and the Pythagorean system.
In addition, he was a competent astrologer and a psychic, and made many accurate predictions, some of which came true years after his death.
He wrote several books on palmistry which are still in use today. His last book, "You And Your Hand: The Last Word On This Fascinating Study 1937" was written just before he died; one wonders whether Cheiro knew his time was up and wanted to publish one last book.
There is an interesting story about something that happened at Cheiro's funeral. During the wake, although there were just a few people around, those present could hear the footsteps of many people walking by and stopping momentarily at his coffin. It is believed that he was so revered that even those who had departed had come to pay their respects to him.

THE LEFT HAND and THE RIGHT HAND

Left Hand What we are born with; what happens to us; our private self
Right Hand What we do with our lives; the actions we take; our public self
The left hand (or the weak hand) tells more of past events, of what we inherit in terms of health, of what happens to us rather than what actions we take, and of what goes on in our private lives and in those areas which we do not have much control over.
The right hand (or the strong hand) tells of what will happen in our future if no conscious changes are made, of how the world sees us, of whether we have the will to make any changes for the better, and also tells of ambitions we may have.
MAIN LINES OF THE HAND
Life Line
Health; how we take care of it; major events in life
Head Line
Mental health; mental capabilities; intelligence; character
Heart Line
Emotional attitude; romantic profile; some aspects of health
Fate Line
Career outlook; milestones; ambitions; major events in life
Sun Line
Happiness; fulfilment; wealth prospects; romantic feelings
Deep, clear and smooth lines are best, and indicate that one's life would be positive in the area of life represented by the line. With such lines, success should be accomplished, accompanied with happiness and contentment.
Breaks, gaps, islands, crosses, spots and cross-bars indicate possible problems or events at whichever points these marks appear. Broad, fuzzy or chain-type lines indicate a negative outlook, a dissipation of energy and low morale.
The minor lines and the influence lines will modify what the main lines promise.
MOUNTS OF THE HAND

PALMISTRY - LINES

All the lines on the palm however big or small, thick or thin are helpful in determining the speed of the life force of the individual. Therefore it is necessary for an expert palmist to make a critical study of each line found on the palm. The clear and deep long lines on a palm indicates success, while the broken, thin and indistinct lines are a handicap for the person. Every man has 7 main lines and 12 secondary lines.
The Seven main lines are:
The Life Line - It is also called as "Paternal line or Age line". This has the greatest importance on a palm. Everything in life is in the line. The life line commences from under the Mount of Jupiter and originates from the side of the palm near the thumb and the index finger surrounding the Mount of Venus and ultimately ends at the bracelets. This line is seen in all human beings. A person's age, health, sickness and all can be known from this The
The Head line-This line starts from the Mount of Jupiter or from above it.In most of the palms, the head line and the life line originate from the same place. The Head line divides the palm into two parts. If the line is long, deep and distinct, then the person would have a sharp mind and would be an intellectual. If it is faint, indistinct or appears broken at several places then the person would be weak-minded or a labourer. The study of a person's brain is done with the help of the Head line.
The Heart Line- This line starts from under the Mount of Mercury, separating the areas of Mercury and Marshal, reaching under the index finger and the Mount of Jupiter. This line is directly linked to the heart and is found in almost all palms. This line is absent in robbers and cruel people. If the line is weak, then the person would be inhuman or merciless.
The Line of Apollo or Sun- It is also called the "Line of Success". The source of the line is different in different palms but ultimately it ends at the Mount of Sun.
The Fate Line- This line is not visible in many hands. It commences from different places but it ends only at the Mount of Saturn. This line develops from below the palm towards the upper side. This line is found in only 50% of the population of the world.
The Health Line- This line is related to health and it has no fixed place of commencement. But it terminates at the Mount of Mercury. Health and sickness are studied with the help of this line. In some cases the line is thick while in some others it is very thin like a hair.
The Marriage Line- It is also called the "Love Line". It is situated on the Mount of Mercury. This line comes form the outside of the palm towards the inside of the palm on the Mount of Mercury. In some hands 3 or 4 lines are found and it does not mean that they shall marry that many times. If a cross is found on the line then the marriage or the engagement of the person would be broken. If there are some small signs on the line then the person shall have illegal affairs.
The 12 Secondary Lines are:
The Ring of Jupiter- It makes a half moon on the Mount of Jupiter and covers its whole area which looks like a ring.
The Line of Mars- This line commences from the base of the life line near the thumb, passes over the area of Mars and goes towards the Mount of Venus and line of Mars, but its place of commencement is not sure.
The Ring of Saturn- This line surrounds the Mount of Saturn in the base finger of Saturn. Its one end lies between the finger of Saturn and index finger and the other end lies between the finger of Saturn and the finger of Apollo.
The Ring of Sun- This surrounds the Mount of Sun like a ring. The one end of the ring lies between the finger of Saturn and the finger of Sun and the other end lies between the finger of Sun and the little finger. The shape of the ring remains the same in all hands.
The Girdle of Venus- This commences between the index finger and the finger of Saturn and ends between the finger of Apollo and the little finger. It encircles both the Mounts of Sun and Saturn.Despite the name it has no connection with the Mount of Venus.
The Moon Line- It is a line in the shape of a bow. It commences from the area the of Moon, passes over the Neptune and Hershel areas and ends after reaching the Mount of Mercury. This line is seen in very few hands.
The Line of Influence- It enhances the influence of any line with which it is found. This line passes over the areas of Moon and Neptune and reaches the Fate line. In some hands it is double and in some hands it is treble. Its origin is from the Mount of Venus.
The Travelling Line- This line denotes all kinds of travels. This passes over the line of Moon or is seen proceeding from the area of Venus towards the area of Mars and is seen crossing the area of Dragon's Head, moves towards the Mount of Moon. Such lines are both thick and thin.
The Lines of Children- These lines are seen near the Mount of Mercury in the form of vertical lines over the marriage line. These lines are very thin and cannot be seen with the naked eye.
The Bracelets- These lines are found on the wrist and they are different in number in different hands. Some hands even have four lines.
The Casual Lines- These lines are formed from time to time and show the bad and good times of a person. They are not permanent and disappear once the momentary influence is over. These lines form in different places on the palm.
The High Post Line- This line commences form the wrist and is seen proceeding towards the area of Dragon's tail. If this line is deep and distinct, the person shall certainly attain a great post in life

HOW TO READ YOUR HAND THYSELF

Typical palm readings talk about the line of the heart, line of affection, line of the head and line of life. These are only a small part of palmistry. You also need to look at the hands, fingers and thumbs. Just because your hands tell you something about your personality, it is not an everlasting fate.
Step 1
Sit facing the person whose palms you are reading with the hands upright. Create an atmosphere that has good lighting. Don't use a lamp that will shine into your faces, but one that shines directly onto the hands. A magnifying glass works well for those who have very fine lines.
Step 2
Determine which is the dominant hand. The dominant hand will show how the personality has changed and show future events. The other hand will show basic personality and predispositions as well as past and current events.
Step 3
Ask the person to lay their hands on the table palms down. Flat hands with fingers open usually indicates a flexible person receptive to change. A person with closed fingers and with fingers that do not flex easily up away from the palm are usually more close minded and will need a certain amount of time to adjust to change.
Step 4
Notice the size of the hands and how they are proportioned to the body. Big-handed people are more apt to handle jobs that are detailed and intricate, like a painter or surgeon. Small-handed people tend to do things in a more intuitive fashion. They are naturally impatient and this is intensified if the fingers are also short. Small-handed people tend to be very dynamic and are good at organizing and directing others.
Step 5
Break down the shape of the hands into one of six categories. The elementary hand looks meaty and strong but not flexible. This person is not easily controlled. The square hand belongs to someone serious, practical, logical and solid. Not the most creative person and who is usually drawn to a more methodical career. The pointed hand is often lovely to behold and the hand of a dreamer, idealistic and sometimes impractical. The conical hand is tapered and round with long fingers. This person usually has an artistic temperament, emotional and very sensitive. The philosophic hand is denoted by its knotty joints. This is someone who thinks very deeply and very analytical. The spatulate hand has wide fingertips. This person is active, unconventional, imaginative and original. They can also be impatient and impulsive at times.
Step 6
Classify the fingers into one of four shapes. The well organized and practical one belongs to those with square fingers. The difficult and more sensitive person would be someone with pointed fingers. The vulnerable and sympathetic one belongs to conical fingers. The active and energetic one belongs to the spatulate fingers.
Step 7
Determine if the thumb is flexible or stiff. The flexible thumb is a person who is flexible and broad minded. Sometimes they can be a people pleaser and promise too much and end up disappointing friends. The stiff thumb is a person who is not as flexible and can tend to be opinionated.

In my opinion one should follow a palm reader and after the consultation your heart will tell you whether it is true. If a good palmist is able to tell your nature, character, health, wealth, mentality, some past events and some present relating to your current situation then you should understand that the science of palm reading is true. It is better to go through the books and research on your own palm as well as the palms of near and dear ones.Palmreadingworld offers various remedy like gems and Roderick's. We recommend following gems and Rodrick's for different planets.

PALM LINE

Palm lines are synonymous to chairwoman's. Palmistry has been divided into two parts. One is shrieking and other one is chairwoman's. The part of chairwoman's only deals with lines on the palm. Whereas, the shrugging is confined with the shape and sizes, nails, fingers, thumb mounts, skin and colors of the palm. The hand lines are completely dependent on the shape of the palm. Generally speaking, both shrieking and chairwoman's are interdependent. Palm lines predict the health, wealth, disease and longevity in general. The science of shrugging tells of nature and character of the human being.
The line of the palm has a vital role in the study of chairwoman's. The life line predicts health and longevity, head line predicts mentality, heart line tells love and affection, fate line predicts material success in life. However, it is impossible to predict without the help of shrugging. The major hand lines are taken into calculation while studying palm. At the same time the smaller palmistry lines should not be neglected. The life line, head line, heart line, fate line, sun line, health line and marriage line are the major lines of the palm.
1.Life Line
The life line is the most important line among all the lines in the science of chairwoman's. It starts just below the mount of Jupiter and goes towards the wrist making a semicircle at the side of the mount of Venus. The line of life has direct connection with the most important part of the body such as stomach, liver and heart etc. 
The palmist should keep in mind that the line of life has intimate connection with the vital organs of the body, so that the prediction can be done easily on health and diseases. The life line predicts the strength of life and the death that happens naturally.
The rule of thumb of the life line is to be strong, clean and without any breaks, chains and irregularities that makes one physically strong, robust, disease-free and long span of life.
The palm reader should keep in mind that if the line of life is strong then the stomach and digestive system will be naturally good, as a result it will keep the diseases far away.
When the life line is made of little pieces of chain or breaks it tells of ill health and less power of immunity. 
The palmist should study the life line very carefully since it is seen that the line of life is strong that denotes of strong and robust health as well as forceful character, but the thin life line has more sustaining power.
The person with the thin life line is more strong willed and mentally strong and having resistance to disease.
The very broad line of life makes one muscular than strong willed. 
When there is a branch moves towards the mounts of Jupiter starting from the life line denotes will and ambition to rise high in life and control over other.
When the line of life joins together with the line of head it indicates sensitivity in nature and in confident in all undertakings.
If the line of life has a gap between the line of head and life line then the person will be self-confident, outspoken by nature.
2.Heart Line 
The heart line on the hand is an indicator of love and affection. This makes one either extremely philanthropic or extremely selfish and heartless. The heart line plays a vital role in the emotion of human being.
When the line of heart starts from the mount of Jupiter, then the person becomes very helpful in his attitude, very stable and reliable in matters of love and affection. So to speak, it makes one warm hearted.
When it starts in between two fingers, such persons are deeper in matters of love. Such people are not expressive in their passion. 
When the line of heart starts from the mount of Saturn it indicates an extremely selfish attitude. They are passionate in their attachment. They are not demonstrative in their domestic life.
A short heart line is an indication of less interest in love and affection towards both opposite sexes and people in general. However, if the short line of heart is deep and strong then it will make one stable in affectionate matters.
When the line of heart is down towards the head line, then it indicates the early life is devoid of love and affection. 
When there are crowd of small lines on the heart line, then it tells of flirtatious nature, inconstant in character and a series of love affairs but last long.
When the line of heart gives two branches, one is on the mount of Jupiter and other is in between index and middle finger, it is a symbol of happy life. Such line gives success in love and affection, makes one more or less fortunate in life.
When there is a square on the line of heart it indicates protection such as good medical treatment or a solution in the problem of business.
The upward lines from the line of heart are the indication of successful love and affection, while downward line indicates unhappiness, problem and disappointments in love life.
3. Head Line 
The head line on the palm has an important role in the science of chairwoman's. The line of head indicates intellectuality, strength and weakness of the brain, memory, temperament and suicidal tendency etc. The head line on your palm tells your lifestyle, philosophy and your attitude. It is very important on the part of a palmist to calculate line of head along with the study of shrugging.
The head line or the mind line generally starts from three separate points. It starts from the center of the Jupiter on the hand, from the starting of life line, from the mounts of the Mars and also within the line of life.
If the head line starts from the mount of Jupiter it predicts of courage, determination, command over others, forcefulness, energy and unlimited ambition to succeed in life. If it is a long brain line and touches life line, then it should be considered as the most powerful among all other placement. 
If the line of head tightly joined with the life line, it tells of extremely sensitive nature, makes one extreme cautious in all undertakings and more or less nervous temperament.
If the line of head starts from the mounts of Mars with the line of life, then the temperament will be inconstant. The person will be indecisive in both thought and action.
When the line of head becomes straight, long and without any breaks then person will be practical in his common sense, love of worldly affairs than imagination.
When there is very less gap between the line of head and heart, then person will be ruled by the heart not by thought.
If the first half of the head line is straight and the second half of the line of head is slopping then there will be balance between both imagination and practicality. The person will lead a practical approach of life.
When the entire line of head is slightly slopping, there will be tendency towards imaginative activities like mimicry, painting, literature, singing and music etc. when the line of head slopes towards the mount of moon it predicts the learning of mysticism and imagination.
When the line of head moves towards the mounts of mercury then there will be success in business, commerce and science. When it moves towards the mount of Sun, it gives desire for name and fame. When it moves towards the Jupiter then indicates pride and love of power and position. 
When the head line runs with a square, it denotes an escape from a violence or accident. When there is an offshoot towards the mount of Jupiter and a star on the Jupiter then it tells phenomenal success in all attempts. 
When the line of head is very short and stops at the middle of the hand then the person will believe in material success. Such kind of person is incapable of handling imaginative activities. 
When the line of head is full of islands or hair lines, it denotes mental illness and sometimes insanity. 
The deep head line is an indication of better memory and a straight line is an indication of realistic in its thinking. 
When the head line is broken in two pieces, then there will be accidents or violence to the head.
4.Marriage Line
Marriage in heaven is the bonding of two individual in one mind. A successful marriage is that which has got deep bonding no matter if you are married in court, temple, church etc. 
The marriage line can predict what kind of conjugal life you will lead. It predicts the love and affection of two persons. While calculating line of marriage one should take into account the mounts of Venus and heart line as well.  The line of heart should be very clean to have very reliable married life. The mounts of Venus should be strong enough to have romantic and good sexual life.
Marriage line is situated just below the little finger and above the starting point of the heart line.
A clean, long line of marriage and without any break and chain or island predicts a highly successful married life. 
Only strong line indicates marriage. The small lines nearby the line of marriage indicate romance. The marriage line closer to little finger indicates late marriage. The line of marriage closer to heart line tells early marriage. 
If the marriage line sends an offshoot towards the mounts of sun and into the line of sun the marriage will take place with a person who is famous.
When the line of marriage is divided in to parts at its end and one line goes towards the centre of the palm indicates divorce or legal separation.
If a strong line from the mount of mercury comes downward and cuts the line of marriage then it indicates a great opposition and obstacle in marriage.
The line that cuts the line of marriage at its end tells of marriage that ends in death or divorce.
The fork at the end of marriage line denotes separation (with or without judicial separation).
If the line of marriage breaks and resumes again that indicates a separation and reunion again.
If there is an island on the line of marriage it indicates unhappiness and quarrel in married life.
When the line of marriage touches the line of heart it forecast the death of life partner.
5.Health Line
 No line should be neglected in the science of palm reading. Almost all the lines of the palm are interdependent. Though the palmist can study the health from life line, yet the health line has importance. It is better, if the health line is not present on the palm. If it is present, then it should be neat and clean. There should not be any breaks and chains or island on the line of health. It should be strong and long. Absence of health line predicts extremely good health and sustaining power. The health line also has an important role in getting material success.
When it is red and leaves from the line of heart with the small and flat nails, it indicates problem with the heart.
When the health line is crooked or twisted then it tells of disease relating to liver.
When the line of health is heavily marked and joins with line of head and heart, there is no connection anywhere else and then it tells of mental illness. 
When the line of health is strong and deep it gives success in business and force to make much money. It also gives success in material world.
When the health line is like a wave (wavy line) then it tells of nervousness and anxiety.
A broken health line gives not only poor health but also failure in business.
If there is line that moves towards life line and cuts it then there will be life-threatening condition in the advance period of life.
When the line of health makes straight pieces then it indicates indigestion.
6.Travel Line 
Travel line is on the mounts of Moon that tells of traveling throughout life and its influence in life.
The line of travel starts from the edge of palm just opposite to thumb and mounts of Venus. It normally moves horizontally.
When the travel line intersects the line of life then there will be health problem during travel or ill health will make you travel.
The line which crosses the line of travel will give problem in trip.
A square on the line of travel will protect from problem relating to trip.
Broken line of travel indicates delay in travel.
If the line of travel intersects the line of fate then there will be a life changing experience during the trip.
When the travel line touches the mounts of Jupiter then there will be power and position due to traveling. Generally, the trip happens very long.
When the line of travel runs and touches the mounts of sun then it tells of name and fame as well as riches.
When travel line runs to the mounts of Mercury, it predicts sudden and unexpected wealth comes from traveling. 
If the line of travel moves towards the head line and creates spot, island or breaks, it predicts some kind of injuries due to journey.
7.Girdle Line
The line that rises between the base of first and fourth finger and makes a broken or unbroken kind of semicircle is called girdle of Venus.
Very few people have this kind of line on the palm.
When the girdle of Venus is present, it makes one extremely sensitive and intelligent. It makes one easily offended and gives changeable mentality.
The people having girdle of Venus are more or less dual in their mentality. Sometimes they are at high pitch of spirit and try to make a success to their dream. It is difficult on their part to come to same spirit again. Sometimes they become extremely disappointed.
When the girdle of Venus moves towards the mounts of Mercury and touches the marriage line, it tells of severe marital dispute due to peculiar temperament of the person

WHAT IS PALMISTRY

Palmistry is a method of counselling that originated in India over 3,000 years ago. It is a part of a vast field of study, referred to as Samudrik Shastra, which literally means the ocean of knowledge. Palmistry is a sub-section of Samudrik Shastra and deals specifically with the study of the hand.
Is palmistry fortune-telling?
In a word: no. The original intent of palmistry was for personality assessment and counselling. One's emotional tendencies, social attitudes, conscious awareness and subconscious fears, blockages and strengths can be understood in great detail through this in-depth system.
Can you make predictions through palmistry?
You cannot make predictions with palmistry. However, since there is a definate mind-body connection, we know that negative or positive thinking affects our well-being. As well, due to our habitual way of thinking, we often repeat the same behaviour in the future as we exhibit in the present. If we can understand the pattern of our habits and thinking, then we can begin to isolate the negative cycles of behaviour and can replace them with positive new ones. Palmistry can help you see these patterns. With this information, you can shape own destiny.
How does palmistry work?
Palmistry is best seen as a dynamic process. The lines of the hand are not carved in stone. Since the lines of the hand reflect our thinking, as our attitudes and behaviour patterns change, the lines reflect these changes. The lines physically change as our thinking changes. In fact, you can see distinct changes in as little as three months.
Which hand do you read?
It is important to look at both hands during a reading. Depending on which hand is active (usually seen as the hand you write with),in combination with the inactive hand, shows where you have been (passive),and where you are likely headed (active) in this life.

THE LOVE LINE

 Another designation for the Love line is the Heart line. Both imply romance, powerful feelings and elevated emotions. Early love experiences are lines found on the thumb side of the hand, running toward the center of the palm. Marriages visualize as a wishbone shaped line representing two individuals in a union. Each side of the wishbone equals one partner; at the connection they are one. An unbroken wishbone line reveals harmony in the relationship. Chop marks represent choppy, uneven times in the relationship. Engagements, terminated relationships, the greatest love affair of the century, and everyday marriages, all of these connections are visible on the Love line. Experiences that impressed one as well as pain, hurt and despair show up on the Love line. Deep marks are telltale evidence of a persons roller coaster love life.
QUESTIONS COMMONLY ASKED REGARDING THE LOVE LINE:
1. Did I choose the right mate? Is this my Soul Mate? If not, will I discover my Soul Mate? How will I recognize my Soul Mate? Are we opposites or alike?
2. In later life, will I be as happy and content with this person as I am today? 3. Will our emotional connection remain solid and endure through the years?
Description of Love Line: the shorter lines, 2-3 cm in length: The wishbone lines represent a romantic interlude, an involvement. This type of Love Line may be due to enforced separation, such as parents keeping a boy away from their daughter, or a divorce or death. If the wishbone line has marks surrounding it that are not similar: Divorce visualizes as a slash mark across the bottom of the wishbone line; a flat line creating a triangle. Death visualizes as a broken line and appears etched on the palm. It is located at the bottom of the wishbone line. There is an opening by the edge of the wishbone; it is not closed and cannot create a triangle. Note: In both cases, finality is clearly marked.
Description of Love Line: longer lines, 4-5 cm in length: The wishbone lines represent numerous years spent in a fulfilled union with a compatible spouse. Couples who truly love each other, share all life has to offer. This type of line is a 100% support system that is reciprocated. Long unions may show wear and tear, the ups and downs a family has endured. In time couples begin to look, act and feel like one another, react in the same way, hate and love the same things, learn each others habits and routines. In true love one never says, I love you but you have enormous feet. Nobody can change the size of his or her feet. By accepting the essence of their mate without qualifications or conditions in an affectionate, giving relationship, one demonstrates mature love. In a solid, loving relationship both partners simply know real love.
SOUL MATE A DEFINITION
In Asian/Oriental Palmistry the definition of a soul mate is one who bonds with another and is familiar with them. They are from another time zone when they lived on this planet and were a person other than who they are today, thus reincarnation. When they meet it is as if they already know the other person, for in reality they do. A SOUL MATE is a one who bonds with another in an instant. There are no strings attached. Recognition is internally felt by both and an immediate closeness registers in their minds. Example: in another lifetime, over 100 years ago a person might have been an Indian man. In this time zone that person is a bright, intelligent young girl. Or, in another time zone the person was someones old maid aunt but this time he is a strong male in his seventies, or a three year old little boy.
The expression, No risk, no gain is true in the relationship aspect. One must reach out and enter into life's mainstream by getting involved, enrolling in a class, volunteering somewhere or working in a group setting. This shakes up the energy around the person and brings new individuals into their life. Networking and being a friend to another, trying new things, are some of the ways one can bump into a new person who may be their soul mate.
A soul mate, according to Asiatic/Oriental Palmistry consists of five levels. These are: Communication Visible Appearance of couple Spirituality Sensual/Sexual Compatibility in Relationship Similar Religious Belief System
Beyond these five levels one must also touch on the areas of: Trust Honor Respect Affection Spontaneity Love
These are not the only characteristics one must have in common to relate to a soul mate. Also present must be their reactions, likes and dislikes, same philosophy about life in general, ambitions and dreams. Soul mates cannot find another unless they too have a past life when they were connected on several levels in that other lifetime.
SOUL MATE DISCUSSION ACCORDING TO ASIATIC/ORIENTAL PALMISTRY
What does the Soul mate symbol look like on a palm in this modality? The soul mate symbol is always located on the human palm by the wrist, looking downward toward the center of the hand. It is a V-shaped mark, or looks like a baseball diamond or Indian Tee-Pee and usually begins at the center of the wrist.
When reading a palm the test of a true fit for two individuals who are possible soul mates is if the baby finger from the opposite hand is able to fit into the soul mate symbol or slot. The baby finger must be laid on its side and slid into the area. If it fits, there is a possibility that a soul mate from ones past lives can appear in this one.
HOW DO I FIND MY SOUL MATE?
My reply: Enter into the mainstream of life, be a participant, explore new avenues, experiment, and seek change for self. The soul mate relationship is unique because it reunites two individuals who knew each other when both lived on this planet during another lifetime. If an individual has a need and their soul mate feels and acknowledges their longing for the call home, they respond in kind to their need. In this lifetime growth and moving forward is what has to take place.
HOW DO SOUL MATES REACT WITH EACH OTHER
They respond in kind to any situation in an exact manner, such as reactions, likes, dislikes. They are able to read each other, feel mood shifts, desires, happiness and the upsets within. Information is sometimes passed with no verbal communication if one is in tune. They respect and accept each other and sense when one needs quiet time, a soothing touch, a hug. At times, in our lives things do not run smoothly. With soul mates, their closest friend is also their whipping boy. They relate and support each other. There is no friction, criticism, bickering, sexual tension or frustration between them. They have already experienced that in a past lifetime with that person.
Soul mates are alike and understand their partners needs without discussion.
Example: In a past life you were a three year-old boy living next to one the same age as you. (Hundreds of years ago extended families lived within one home for the duration of their lifetime; you remained in that home perhaps eighty years as did your next door playmate.) In this lifetime you have returned as a woman and he is the man but you remember that you are that three year-old child who grew up next to door to that boy. We carry memories that are implanted in our soul from one lifetime to the next.
Note: Think of the pea coat the Navy man wears with double breasted buttons, each with an anchor on it. If you have been on this planet 9 nine times you will have nine buttons implanted within yourself, all memories of those past nine different times you were in existence.
COULD I HAVE MORE THAN ONE SOUL MATE?
My reply, Yes, if that person is an old soul; one who has lived prior to this time. Soul mates are worldly and awe-inspired, centered and grounded, in harmony with the earth, sensitive to each others needs. They focus. In a soul mate relationship life can be exciting and comfortable simultaneously. There is a wonderful feeling of warmth between them. Neither party ever talks down to the other, considering one to be the second class citizen. There is a sounding board between them to hold weighty, lengthy conversations where each takes a turn speaking as the other listens. Instinctively they know what is in the mind of their mate.

THE HEART LINE

The Heart Line deals with all the emotions and events that are centered around love, whether it be your ability to love, or be loved. In general, the stronger and deeper the line, the stronger and warmer your devotions.
The Heart Line is the horizontal line above the Head Line. It begins beneath either the index finger or middle finger and extends across to the edge of the palm on the side of the little finger.
Special markings on this line indicate specific events which occurred in your life. The line can be divided into three parts to help judge when certain events occurred or might occur: (1) represents youth, (2) represents adult, (3) represents old age.
A normal and content love life is represented by the line that starts beneath the index finger.
A selfish and materialistic look at love is characteristic to those whose Heart Line start below the middle finger. A slight disregard to the true meaning of love and its responsibilities are indicated by the line that starts between the middle and index finger. The person tends to easily give their heart away.
If the line extends boldly across the entire palm, then the person tends to look for those whose status rises above their own, and has great respect for them. If such a line is very straight and parallel to the Head Line, then it shows strong emotional control.
If the line is long and curved (especially upwards), then the person has a pleasant, romantic nature, great warmth in their actions. They may also tend to give all of themselves to love, no matter the costs.
A short line shows a lack of interest in the affairs of love and affections. However if the short line is also very strong and deep, then the person's affections tend to be quite stable.
Awavy line, as well as a broken or chained line, represents many love interests, but none of them very serious.
A star on the line represents happiness in your marriage. A donut on the line represents a time of depression. Emotional loss may be symbolized by a broken line, as well as a line with small lines crossing through it. Such losses include deaths and the end of relationships. Happiness in love is shown by small lines that extend upward from the Heart Line. However, if the lines extend downward, then it symbolizes a disappointment. Protection from a loved one is indicated by double lines. A wavy line, as well as a broken or chained line, represents many love interests, but none of them very serious. A star on the line represents happiness in your marriage. A donut on the line represents a time of depression. Emotional loss may be symbolized by a broken line, as well as a line with small lines crossing through it. Such losses include deaths and the end of relationships. Happiness in love is shown by small lines that extend upward from the Heart Line. However, if the lines extend downward, then it symbolizes a disappointment. Protection from a loved one is indicated by double lines.

HAND LINES

The Life Line. Called the Jeevan Rekha, the Life Line marches down the hand from the Mount of Jupiter to Mount of Venus, the fleshy bulge of muscle which controls the thumb map of Subsidiary lines arising from the life line towards the mounts of Mercury, Sun, Saturn or Jupiter are called the rising lines, which indicate the rises in life in the field indicated by the mount towards which these rising lines travel. As one of the three so-called Major Lines of the hand, the Life Line represents subcnonscious levels of the mind. As the name suggests, the Life Line indicates the passage of time, illness and death, and other important life events. General health, stamina, and the condition of the nervous system are also indicated, as are the impact of family influences and interpersonal conflicts. A semi-circular Life Line, thin and deep, without irregularities, breaks, or crosses of any kind, is considered ideal.
The Head Line.The Head Line of Head relates to the intellectual capacities of the individual, and also the physical condition of his or her brain. The line generally begins at a point between the aggressive Mount of Mars and the Mount of Jupiter and sometimes terminates at the defensive Mount of Mars, but usually at the Mount of Mercury or the Mount of Luna. For an interactive hand map click here.
The Heart Line. The last of the three Major Lines of the hand, the Heart Line depicts your loving capacity, emotional make-up and sexual well-being. On a physical level, it also indicates the healthiness of the heart. To find it on your hand, look for the horizontal line above the Head Line. It should begin beneath either the index finger or middle finger and extend across to the edge of the palm on the side of the little finger. Chronological life events are said to register on the Heart Line  especially events relating to love and relationships. When the heart line ends between the forefinger and the middle finger it means you are emotional and passionate, says one palm expert.
The Girdle of Venus. Representing creativity, the Girdle of Venus runs in a broken or unbroken semicircle from between the first and second fingers to between the third and fourth fingers.
The Health Line. This line rises at the base of Mount of Mercury, and as it grows down the hand and into the line of life, so does it foreshadow the growth of the illness or germ of disease which at the time of its coming in contact with the line of life will reach its climax. It should lie straight down the hand - the straighter the better. Although it is an excellent sign to be without this line. Such absence denotes an extremely robust, healthy constitution. Its presence on hand in any form indicates some delicate point to be guarded against.
The Sun Line. According to Palmistry.com, the Minor Lines of the hand represent conscious aspects of the personality. As a minor line, the Sun Line shows how successful you have been in your work. However, you should note that this line is more naturally prominent on on the Philosophic, Conic, and Spatulate hands.
The Destiny Line. Also known as the Dhana Rekha or Karma Rekha. The Destiny Line serves as a backbone for the other lines on your palm, and suggests the degree of your desire to structure your life. To see where the line runs on a typical palm, click here. Please remember: the type of hand you have (see Hand Types) plays an important role in considering your Destiny Line: this line tends to be less marked on the elementary, the square, and the spatulate, than on the philosophic, the conic, or the psychic. Consequently if one sees, as one often will, an apparently very strong Destiny Line on a Conic Hand, one must remember that it has not half the importance of a similar line on a square type as far as worldly success is concerned.
Nails . As Brahmasri Gailasasaamy said, nails should also be taken into account when reading the hands. Here is a short summary of what the different kinds of nails mean: Short Nails Uncivilized nature; short pale nails wickedness; short rectangular nails  heart disease candidate; short wide nails stubborn troublemakers; hard narrow nails quarrelsome and stubborn; square nails  wicked, cowardly, timid and subdued individuals; short triangular Nails Such nails are generally wide at the upper tip and narrow at the lower end. Persons with such nails are lazy and hesitant to work. They like loneliness and do not like others to interfere in their matters. This is a negative selection I know, but is indicative of one side of the Palmistry school of knowledge
