Palmistry has a scientific basis because the enormous number of nerves present in our hands are connected to the brain. Whether we made ourselves and evolved this way, or someone made us, the truth is that the hand is a gift. Our bodies are so perfectly made so why is it difficult to believe that there is a fail safe? An alarm system?

As a palm reader, people are going to think you are a bit odd. And it has to be said it is a bit of an odd thing to do with your time. But it is enormously rewarding, and you don’t stop learning. I’m certainly learning still. And I must say it has changed over the years. Even since the time I’ve been learning it has changed.

Palmistry is fairly accurate, but cannot be precise in terms of dates. Predictions are more about trends. It is a good indicator of your personality and your life purpose.

Are you trying to reform a negative attitude or a bad habit? By having your handprints taken periodically, you can follow your improvement.

Although the fingerprints never change, the palmar lines and markings change throughout life. If our future was all mapped out for us, surely the lines would stay the same. When looking at a hand, we see the person as they are NOW, bringing their past with them and sowing seeds for the future. Although many palmists do make predictions, any prediction from the hand is only potential. Most prediction is based on the direction you are going in now. It is not set in stone - we all have free will to make choices and changes in our lives, that will affect our future and alter our "fate", and our lines will change accordingly.

Are you depressed? You need to find your inner light and bring your talents to bear. Palmistry will help reveal what these talents are.

Death cannot be seen on the hand, not even on the Lifeline. Death can occur anytime, but this cannot be predicted by the hand.

Your hand-crafted bespoke drawing focuses on personal affirmations and your focus themes for the next 6-12 months. The artwork can be part of your vision-board, for meditation, or as a touchstone for your goals.

Do you want the best for your child? An analysis of your child's hands will reveal tendencies which you can then encourage by proper education, training and support.

This is the palmistry question that I get asked more than any other!
The origin of the child lines and 'marriage' lines (also known as 'lines of union', 'affection', 'attachment' or 'relationship' lines) goes back to palmistry manuscripts dating from the fifteenth century and are well known in traditional palm reading and have long been used in fortune telling or chiromancy. These lines are located on the ulna or percussion edge of the hand, on the Mercury mount, underneath the little finger.

Smaller journeys cannot be seen on the hand. At times settlement away from your home can be seen. But this does not necessarily mean out of the country. It simply means away from your roots.

A palm reading will help you feel the joy of seeing how far you’ve come and how you can choose to develop different aspects of your hands to better shape your destiny.

Are you trying to heal your mind? How do you know how well you're doing? Palmistry offers Before and After "pychological snapshots" so you can chart your mental progress.

You may find you have more similarities with your friends than with your love partner. But chances are that you wouldn't fall in love with your friends or you wouldn't really want to have them as life partners.

Therefore, the purpose of using palmistry to evaluate your relationship is not to find someone exactly like you, but to learn at an early stage what your similarities and differences are and how to relate to each other.

If you remember from last month, the life line runs around the fleshy part of the thumb. This month I will explain what happens if there is a complete break in the life line.

Since the life line represents vitality and the “journey” of life, a break means a significant period when one life path is over and another one begins. If it occurs in the dominant hand, it will be noticeable to everybody, and may occur in the area of relationships, health or work life. If it occurs in the passive hand, it means a crisis of inner faith, or a loss of self-esteem.

The field you are best suited for can be seen. However what you will actually choose, this is not. There are umpteen instances where people choose a stream of study other than what they are suited for intellectually and/or temperamentally, and this is due to parental or societal pressures.

No, anyone can learn palmistry. Hand analysis is not to be confused with mediumship, clairvoyant or psychic reading, nor anything 'paranormal'. Hand reading is a skill like map reading, or cracking a code, or doing a jigsaw. You learn all the basics of what each feature of the hand might represent, then you put all the pieces together to build up a picture of the person. No two hands are the same, so each combination of features is unique to that person. The more readings you do, the more your natural intuition can increase, but you are still using the analytical techniques to reach your interpretation of the persons hands. The only mystery is why it should work at all!

What should I do with my life? If this is what you are wondering, palmistry can help you focus on what you can do best.

It has been done for millenniums in India. In prearranged marriages, children are matched to their life partner quite early, based on their astrological data and their hands. As long as the family's greed and social position doesn’t interfere with this decision, the two partners are united according to their compatibility. Their marriage is not based on love at first sight like in the Western world, but on the opportunity to develop a happy, long-lasting relationship. They gradually learn to love each other and their love increase with the years since they are a good match in the first place.

I I started working when I was at university in 1984/5. When I was at university I did Yoga, and the teacher happened to be part of the Chirological Society, and he started teaching me hand reading, and I’ve practised it ever since then. When I left university I became professional, and I have been a professional ever since. I was going to be teacher, so it was a bit of a diversion for me!

No, the life line does not foretell length of life, so don't worry if you think you have a short lifeline! In modern hand reading (chirology) it tells us a lot about your health, energy and lifestyle. A short line may mean that you need to use your energy in short bursts with rests in between. More common than a short line is one which stops and re-starts, usually with the two lines overlapping for a while, this shows some kind of change in your lifestyle.

Your hand cannot tell you the quantum of money or assets you possess. Property cannot be seen on the hand. It can only tell you whether you think you have enough, more than enough, or not enough. Finally it is all in your mind. In any case, your riches are not dependent on your hand. They are dependent on your ability, inheritance and/or hard work. Your success is dependent on who you are and what you do. This is reflected on the lines.

Every relationship requires some fine-tuning from time to time. Palmistry will highlight your couple's similarities and differences, and will help you deal with the differences.

In chirology you try to pertain your advice to the particular strengths or weaknesses of that person. I always read to the thumb and the head line, which may sound a bit odd. But you look at the person and see how clever they are or how they think and try to read according to that kind of mind. There is a certain line at the top of the heart line or water line, which if someone has, you know they tend to be very dreamy and arty, ruled by Uranus, which is all to do with TV and the world of illusions – things that are not real. So they love to be described to in symbolic language – to be told about their karma and their past lives and their motives and their spiritual life. You need to be more imaginative in your descriptions when you are talking to someone like that.

There is a vast ancient knowledge about hand reading and this knowledge has been built upon by many good modern authors on palmistry. When it comes to actually using this knowledge, some palmists and hand readers use intuition, astrology, psychology and superstition, and combine it with tidbits of ancient palmistry knowledge to draw conclusions. This tends to discredit palmistry.

Even if intuition is accurate at times, to rely on it or to act as if it is about hand reading is not correct. From the number of emails I get every week from people who have been victims of palmists who make dire, frightening predictions,
I view these intuitive predictions in the light of malice of some type.
