Interpreting the Hands
Determine the hand shape
Each hand shape is associated with certain character traits. The length
of the palm is measured from the wrist to the bottom of the fingers.
The basic interpretations are as follows:
-
Earth - broad, square palms and fingers, thick or coarse skin, and ruddy color; length of the palm equals length of fingers
- Solid values and energy, sometimes stubborn
- Practical and responsible, sometimes materialistic
- Work with their hands, comfortable with the tangible
-
Air - square or rectangular palms with long fingers and sometimes
protruding knuckles, low-set thumbs, and dry skin; length of the palm
less than length of fingers
- Sociable, talkative and witty
- Can be shallow, spiteful and cold
- Comfortable with the mental and the intangible
- Does things in different and radical ways
-
Water - long, sometimes oval-shaped palm, with long, flexible,
conical fingers; length of the palm equals length of fingers but is less
than width across the widest part of the palm.
- Creative, perceptive and sympathetic
- Can be moody, emotional and inhibited
- Introverts
- Do things quietly and intuitively.
-
Fire - square or rectangular palm, flushed or pink skin, and shorter fingers; length of the palm is greater than length of fingers
- Spontaneous, enthusiastic and optimistic
- Sometimes egoistic, impulsive and insensitive
- Extroverts
- Do things boldly and instinctively.
Look at the mounts
That's what the fleshy bit below your fingers are called, on the
opposite side of your knuckle. To make them visible, cup your hand just a
bit. Which one is the largest?
- A high Venus mount (the one under your thumb) indicates a predisposition for hedonism, promiscuity, and the need for instant gratification. A non-existent Venus mount indicates little interest in family matters.
- The mount under your index finger is called the Jupiter mount. If this is well-developed, it means you are dominant, possibly self-centered, and aggressive. A lack of one means you lack confidence.
- Under your middle finger is the Saturn mount. A high mount shows you're stubborn, cynical, and prone to depression. If it is low, it's an indicator of superficiality and disorganization.
- The Sun mount is under your ring finger. You're quick-tempered, extravagant, and prideful if you have a high Sun mount. A low Sun mount means you lack imagination.
- The Mercury mount is under your pinkie. If it's protruding, you talk too much. A low mount means the opposite -- you're shy.
- None of this is based on science. And your hands are known to change throughout time. Don't take any of it too seriously!
