Reading Hands :
The hand is divided up into areas or mounts, like a geographical map, so that areas of the
hand can easily be identified. The markings on the hand consist of the major lines, the
minor lines, sister lines, little markings (like triangles or squares) and some thin
hairlines coming from other lines. Imagine that the hand is a country with high and low
hills (mounts) and the lines flowing in and out of the country like rivers.
Handanalysts consider the following :
What is the shape of the hand ?
The mounts - high or flat ?
which one(s) seem dominant ?
How soft is the flesh when you press into it ?
and how does it bounce back when the finger is withdrawn ?
How flexible are the fingers (bending back them backward) ?
What is the shape and length of the fingers ?
Reading hands is learned by examining as
different hands as possible and comparing them, until you get a feel for what is normal or
unusual. You might notice that the fingers are very long, or the hand is incredibly soft,
or that one of the lines is unusually pronounced, or wobbly, or broken, or connecting to
other lines, etc. etc. Although there is no such a thing as a 'perfectly normal hand', you
will start getting a feel for what is peculiar to a person after examining many hands.
Make a Palm Print :
First assemble the equipment you need which is black water soluble printing ink, rubber
roller, quality paper, a rubber pad and a marble slab.
» On the marble slab put an inch of black ink.
» Spread the black ink with the rubber roller in an area enough to cover a hand.
» First place the hand on the ink and spread on the palm over as much area as possible.
Use the rubber roller to cover the balance of the hand.
» Place piece paper on rubber pad and press keeping hand and fingers still.
» Gently press the hand and fingers to paper.
» Lift hand carefully off pad.
