Have you ever wondered what your future
would be like? Or maybe your calling in life, or your personality type? The key
to all of your troubles might be in the palm of your hands, literally. Of
course you use your hands for everything under the sun, but have you ever
actually stopped and wondered what all those freaky little lines are for? They
must have a purpose.
From
the tip of your middle finger all the way down to the beginning of your wrist
holds a secret meaning. This art is otherwise known as Palmistry. Palmistry has
been around for thousands of years and has been used by fortune tellers to tell
the future.
Long
lanky fingers, or short sausage stubs are all welcome to the Palmistry party.
If you have long fingers it means you are detail-oriented, full of ideas, think
things through, and tend to be critical. Having short fingers means that you
look at the big picture and are more of a realist. The index finger is the most
important finger in palm reading. The index finger helps describe a person’s
self-image. A long index finger indicates a natural born leader with some high
standards. Shorter index fingers signify lower self-esteem and trouble
expressing feelings.
So,
let’s get down to the reason why you clicked on this—the palm lines, the
meaning of life stuff. Obviously your palm lines are not going to give you the
insight to create a golden pathway through life, but they may help you
understand yourself a little bit better.
There
are three crucial lines that most palm readers generate towards. When palm
reading the dominant hand is usually the one chosen. If you’re a right handed
person it would be that one or vice versa. The dominant hand represents your
present and past life, while the less dominant hand represents your life ahead.
The
heart line can be found around the top of a person’s palm. It represents love
and attraction, along with your emotional living. If you find your heart line
under your index finger, you are content with your own love life. If it is
found below your middle finger, you are usually most selfish when in love. You
fall in love easily if your heart line is found between you index finger and
middle finger. A short love line means you might be interested in other things
than finding romance in your life. If you wear your heart on your sleeve
chances are your heart line is long.
The
second most important line is known as the head line. The head line is located
just below the heart line. This line stands for the human mind and the way to
works. If you don’t crave the challenge of something fairly difficult and
intellectual or you’re not a creative person blame your head line. A curvy head
line means you are creative. If it is straight it means you are more practical.
If you love psychical accomplishment you must have a short line. A clear and
focused thinker? Why of course your head line is long. A wavy line means you
have a short attention span; if you have taken various breaks while reading
this, don’t even look at your palm, you have a wavy line.
The
third line is called your life line. But don’t worry, if it’s short it doesn’t
mean you are going to die. It just symbolizes a person’s well-being. This line
is located at the edge of your palm slightly above the thumb and winds its way
down to your wrist. If your life line is close to your thumb, you’ve been
cursed with low energy and sleepiness. A wide and curvy life line indicates
lots of energy. If you have been wondering why you are cautious in
relationships, blame your straight life line. A long and defined line stands
for inner strength and vitality. Careful, if you have a short and shallow one,
you may be manipulated easily.
Palm
reading or Palmistry is not meant to determine the outflow of your entire life,
but can be something fun to do. Compare it to that childhood game of mash; did
you ever end up even talking to the person you got paired with? Nobody ever
knows for sure what the future holds for themselves. Who knows, maybe your
palms are the answer to your prayers and maybe they are not.
