| LIFE LINE: If the life line is broad and quite long, of good color, and with very few crossing points, it is a cettains sign of a long life. But if it is slender and short, it fortells sickness and a short life. If it happens to be broken anywhere along the way, then you will in great danger of losing your life when it reaches that point ( or maybe a major life change will happen there). Where crosses appear on it, they show that you have already had troubles or are to have some. If these crosses are at the end of the line, toward it's base, they show that you have had misfortune early in life. If this line is thicker than usual at its base, it signifies that you will live to a ripe old age. A double life line indicates great strength. When a life line ends in a fork, it shows a great loss of vitality. If it ends in a cross, sudden death is predicted. FATE LINE: All important events in a person's life can be found in the fate line. If it does not appear on a palm, then that person's life will be uneventful and dreary. A long, very strong fate line indicates that social position will be gained and many exiting things will take place in your lifetime. If the fate line happens to branch off, a career or social change will take place. When it starts at the life line, the person's family will have strong influence on a chouice of career. Wavery lines indicate indecisiveness in direction and that little will ever be accomplished that is worhtwhile. Any breaks in the line are signs of important changes to take place both for good and bad. When lines cross the fate line, they represent obstacles in the path of success, and if these crossings should originate from the life line, they indicate death in the immediate family. A double fate line predicts and even brighter future. Branches which drop down and away from the fate line are always signs of reversals in life, but should these branches rise up and way from the fate line, they denote more successes in a variety of endeavors.. HEART LINE: The heart line is the barometer of feelings of live and afeection. Ehen it is long and very clear, this line designates a person with high ideals and very loving frame of mind. A short heart line indicates selfishness, passion without love, and leanings toward crime. If the line is branched, it shows friendshops made over the years, but if it is crossed, broken friendships are indicated. If the heart line forks, it means more faithfulsess and deeper love. If one of the branches of this line drops down and runs into the life line, a close friend's death is forseen. If the heart line cannot be found in the palm, the person doesn't really know love. There will be no time for love and close friendships. HEAD LINE: The mental capacity of person is measured by observing the head line in the palm. If it is very prominent of deep, concentration is evident. If it is very long and deep, concentration is an important part of the person's daily life, but if instead it is short and deep, this ability will be used only for specific interests. If the line is short and straight, common sense is indicated, and if it is long and straight, becoming wealthy and obtaining power and prestige will be the driving force in this person's life. If a double head line appears, it shows that a hobby or other side activity is as important as a career. Whenit forks, the person may lie and can be extrememly diplomatic when necessary. If it joins the life line, a lack of confidence is shown. A feathered line is often indicative of nervous problems. If the haead line runs into the fate line, bad luck it predicted. FORTUNE LINE: When the line of fortune is clear and uncrossed, it is indicative of great wealth or at least very comfortable means. These individuals will emver have to worry about finances, For they will always have more than enough. When this line is seen as double, then the source of the money or wealth will come from various places. IF it breaks anywhere along the way , a great loss of wealth is certain to take place, but it will be regained if the line is strong. If this line crossses the life line, it shows that close family members will waste some of you money, but if it runs alongside othe life line, a large inheritance will be yours. When the fortune line starts at the head line, riches will come only after many years of working and investing. When lines ceoss the fortune line, obstacles will have to be overcome in order to be wealthy. If a serparate line joins the fortune line to the fate line, money will be made through a profitables business partnership. HEALTH LINE: When this line can't be see, it is an indication of excellent health and strength. If it is seen, it should be clear and very straight. When this line appears crooked or wavery, there is a tendency toward illness of many types. If it is broken, there are problems with tthe digestive organs. When red lines show themselves, the individual is prone to fevers. If smalll lines cross the health line, headaches are indicated. Generally speaking, the heavier and more prominent this line, the weaker and more sickly the person will tend to be. INTUITION LINE: This line will never be found on a hand of a person who doesn't possess stong intuitive qualities. It must show on both hands in order to be a strong force in his life. If it is seen only on one hand, the power is there, but it is not being capitalized on at the present time. If the line is deep and clearly seen on both hands, the individual will be alive to all occlt influences. His sixth sense will be developed to an astounding degree. Girdle Of Venus: This line is never a sign of good things and usually signifies some type of misfortune in life. It often indicates loss of friends, rejection of love, career disappointments, and family problems. When it appears to be broken, failure is even more prominently indicated. General unhappiness and bitter reverses are certain when this line appears at all. It is often a sign of fatality and uncertainty. |
