Stress Lines and Trauma Lines on the Palms

Stress Lines on the Palms

Stress lines and trauma lines are very similar and can appear in many areas of the palm. The other names for these lines are interference or worry lines. They are not always a negative marking and are often suggest regular domestic worry or family influences (primarily early responsibility or difficulty).

When the lines originate from the mount of Venus and cross the line of life, their meaning becomes more significant. The various stress implications of a worry line crossing the life line can vary. They can be things like life events such as having a child, struggling with finances or emotional issues. All of these things might affect the career or another part of life.

If a worry line is long, originating from inside the mount of Venus, crossing the life line and reaching the head line, it can denote worry over finances. The same markings on the heart line would indicate an emotional matter. A line reaching the fate line can imply career influence, financial concern or both. If there is an island on the fate line and the worry line crosses the island, it can suggest bankruptcy.

A hand covered in many lines

A hand full of lines shows an emotional person who often worries about too many things. Most of these extra lines are stress lines. The subject might have their energy all over the place and their mind doesn’t ever really switch off. The habit of fretting and absorbing other people’s energies is common. I always recommend meditation or other relaxing activities.

Trauma LInes and stress lines

If these worry lines rise from the beginning section of the life line, all the way to the Saturn finger (middle finger) it would suggest a childhood disturbance or trauma. Trauma lines almost always end beneath the Saturn finger; they depict events that had a profound effect on the psyche. The trauma line is almost always fragmented, blurry or faint in its appearance. If this is the case, it may not be a permanent mark.

When I mention this trauma line to someone, many deny ever having anything happen that caused it. However, it is not always something that a person remembers because they might have had the issue during the developing years—such as weaning from the mother, abandonment issues or any other psychological distress as an infant.

Sympathy Lines look like stress lines

Mistaking the sympathy line for a trauma line or ring of Solomon is easy to do. The trauma line reaches the base of the Saturn finger. The sympathy line looks more like a partial ring of Solomon. It shows a compassionate and understanding nature.

The fingernails can also show signs of stress

When looking for clues to stress or the health from the nails, we apply the same principles as for the hands, which is to find something unusual. We also look at the quality. A delicate textured hand should have matching smooth looking nails. If the nails are coarse on a smooth hand, the healthy balance is out of proportion. The coarse nail is usually short dry and dense, more commonly seen on a big hand with rough skin.

A nail usually takes six months to grow from the root to the tip, so some markings can be timed based on where it is on the nail. As an example, a horizontal ridge halfway along the nail would suggest a change or loss of vitality around three months ago. A typical healthy nail is pliable; it has a smooth texture; an average thickness and the colour of the nail is typically light pink. The moons should be milky white, and usually only visible on the thumb.

BLUE/PURPLE NAILS

A bluish tinge within the nail bed can be due to circulatory or respiratory problems. Please note, sometimes this is temporary due to cold weather or cold hands. Also, it is normal for a woman to have bluish nails during the early teens and again at menopause when there are changes in the body hormones. A faint blue tinge covering the nail shows nervousness and possibly some heart weakness. If there is a deep blue colour under the tiny and narrow nails, (most pronounced at the base), heart weakness is almost inevitable.

WHITE NAILS

A white-looking nail bed can suggest iron deficiency, low vitality or more severe liver dysfunction. A pale, white or greyish tinge under the nails can indicate selfish leanings or lack of warmth. Depending on the quality of the nail, if it appears to be lifting off the quick, clouded, brittle and dry, it could indicate a fungal disease.

YELLOW /BROWN

Yellow colour in the nail beds or a brownish discolouration, splotches or stains in the skin directly under the nail, can indicate jaundice, liver or gallbladder conditions. These marks can also occur when there is a high level of bilirubin in the blood due to the body producing too much or not getting rid of it fast enough.

When the nail itself is white and clouded on the top section and yellow at its base, it can signify kidney disease. Other conditions can also cause yellowing, such as fungal infection or regular contact with heavy-duty chemicals on the nails.

RED NAILS CAN POINT TO STRESS

The redness of the nailbed mainly points to someone with intense passion or extra strength. Very red nails can be due to high blood pressure, bad temper or cardiovascular disease. Look at the colour of the palms to see if they too are red. If so, the subject may be doing everything in excess, mentally or physically stressed.

WHITE SPOTS OR LINES

White flecks or spots can show a vulnerable nervous system or a weak constitution. They are usually the first sign of delicate nerves and can appear during times of stress or when the body lacks a mineral such as calcium, zinc or magnesium. White lines across the nail can indicate acute fever or coronary disease.

BLACK/RED LINES

Several long, thin black specks or lines underneath the nail, is associated with a bacterial infection of the heart valves. If the line or speck is very close to the tip, it may be just a splinter or injury. Red lines or specks can be due to long-term high blood pressure, or if at the tip, also injury.

Fate Line Timing Events Scale in Palmistry

If you are interested in palmistry, you would also want to know how to estimate the timing on the lines. Fate line timing events: The timing on any line is never an exact science; this is mainly the case for the fate line, which registers our advancement through life. Each mark, break or divergence can potentially match an event in our life. Fate line timing is to possibly spot an impending change of career or another life event.

The fate line is the middle vertical crease on the palm. Some people call it a career line or line of Saturn. It is an excellent indicator of change in the life of its bearer. A perfect and straight fate line that runs directly from the palm’s base to below the middle finger can denote an unchanging and steady career, drive or direction in life. The person knows who they are; they are self-motivated and in control of their path in life from an early age.

Estimating the timeline on the fate line

What I find to be the easiest way to get a close estimate is to use the different lines to compare. If the heart and head lines form in a typical manner, such as in the palm photo below, then the age of approximately thirty-five is where the line crosses the head line. The age of fifty is when it crosses the heart line.

Where it crosses the heart line is usually the age of fifty. Not all palms have the lines in the same position, but this timing works if you imagine where the head and heart lines usually are. If there are breaks in the fate line, you can use this timescale to see approximately what age change is and what age the progress continues.

Age fifty on the fate line

How to know if fate line timing is accurate?

The best way to make the fate line timing more accurate is to compare past life events on the line. For instance, if there is an island on it (indicating a period of financial trouble). Ask the subject what age they were at the time of that event, and then it can be judged from that point.

If the hand does not have the typical lines, for instance, displaced higher or lower than average, or there is a Simian line, then I adjust the timing from the age of thirty, being the centre of the palm. The spacing tends to get narrower towards the later period.

Where the fate line starts

If the fate line starts from the life line, it shows a traditional start to a career. That means the career started from the individual’s background, education or personal merit. It represents a competent person determined to apply their energy and talent to succeed. If the fate line starts at the wrist at the centre of the hand, it shows first responsibilities and a balanced personality.

The fate line beginning at the base of the palm is a sign of common sense and independence using own efforts, which can manifest in the choices in life (and possibly the career). A fate line starting at the Mount of Moon shows people (or the public) based professions of their choosing. They succeed due to their appealing and essential qualities, which can be in the public eye. Often found in entertainers and actors.

What if you have two fate lines?

Depending on how tight they run to each other, a double fate line can refer to two similar occupations, hobbies or study alongside a career at the same time. If the lines are close, it can depict a successful business partnership and may even represent a husband or wife who is considered very supportive.

What if you don’t have a fate line?

Having no fate line does not mean the person has ‘no career’ or is unmotivated. Instead, it is more likely that they prefer to take life as it comes, not bound by any demands, responsibility or purpose. If you imagine the fate line as a path to follow, and there is no path, you are free to make one of your own. If you need to get to the other side of the forest and there’s no trail, you can still get through by finding or making that track.

As an example, a man who is a self-employed salesperson with goals and motivation to run his own business might not necessarily have a fate line. The probable reason for this may be because his skin may be coarse. He plans his days one day at a time and has no strict boundaries for his career.

Another example comes from a woman whom I know. This lady did not finish her schooling, leaving at sixteen to earn a living. She did not have any significant plans or ambitions to be successful but only wanted independence. She had no fate line, yet she was a regular and steady worker. However, she may have one now, as these lines can form when situations change.

The common aspect I noted about both people is that they have no interest in worldly achievements or obligations. They accept whatever comes along yet take responsibility for their role in life seriously. Someone not having a fate line explains quite a bit about the meaning. It shows how difficult it is to analyse on its own.

If you are reading for someone else

Remember, if you are doing a reading, use care and tact, and never alarm a potentially nervous or sensitive subject. It is not our job as hand analysts to humiliate or discourage anyone. If you fail to verify something, you might not have judged the whole hand correctly.

The lines do change over time

Remember, the lines can change over time. Therefore, what is evident in your hands now, does not imply a fixed quality or event. When using the lines for prediction, gather information from past trials that have led the person to be where they are now. Any lines or markings that represent the future are just assumptions. They show what is potential for the subject based on past actions. I hope you enjoy reading all my articles. Check out some of the latest ones below.

MISSING FATE LINE

The fate line is the vertical line on the palm which rises towards the middle finger. It is also known as the career line or Saturn line. In palmistry, it is usually referred to when analysing the hand for life changes, including the career. If you have a missing fate line, what does it mean? Don’t worry, I will explain in this article.

A perfect and straight fate line that runs directly from the base of the palm to below the middle finger is rare. However, it can denote a decided career or direction in life. The person with this type knows who they are; they are self-motivated and in control of their chosen path in life from an early age.

career line on the palm

Having no fate line does not mean the person has ‘no career’ or that they are completely unmotivated, but instead, it is more likely that they prefer to take life as it comes, not bound by any demands, responsibility (or purpose).

As an example, a man who is a self-employed salesperson with goals and motivation to run his own business might not necessarily have a fate line. The probable reason for this may be because his skin is coarse (tough, thick). He plans his days one day at a time and has no strict boundaries for his career.

Another example comes from a woman whom I know. She did not finish her schooling, leaving at the age of sixteen to earn herself a living. On top of that, she did not have any significant plans or ambitions to be successful, but only wanted independence. There was no fate line on her palm, yet she was a regular and steady worker. It is possible, however, that she has one now, as these lines can form when situations change.

You can still succeed without a fate line.

The common aspect that I noted about subjects with no fate line is that they have no interest in ‘worldly’ achievements or obligations. They accept whatever comes along, yet still, take responsibility for their role in life seriously. Someone not having a fate line explains quite a bit about the line and just how difficult it is to analyse on its own. The person can still succeed, but they do it without the boundaries of having ‘fate’ decide so to speak. 

Usually, when someone does have a full and straight line, the person has set himself life goals with purpose but with conventional boundaries which can limit the diversity as far as occupation is concerned. It does not by any means show a perfect career.

FATE LINE PRESENT BUT NO CAREER

The fate line does not only represent a career; it shows a person knows what they want in life. An instance of this comes from a man, who at the age of sixty, had a strong fate line rising to the mount of Jupiter, which usually means a highly-determined nature. However, he had been unemployed for the past thirty years, with his only income coming from a government payment. I told him that it shows on his palm that he is successful in his chosen path, and he was surprised because he had not intended on returning to work anytime soon.

We both quickly realised that his line meant that he was on a steady path, no matter what it was. He did know what he wanted from life, which was to continue doing what he does. It made him feel comfortable and happy. That is probably why the fate line was so smooth, even though it had nothing to do with his career. He was ambitious, but not in a typical way. He had chosen his path and didn’t intend to divert from it.

Bent Index Finger Meaning in Palmistry

Index Finger Meaning in Palmistry

The index finger, also commonly called the Jupiter finger, can vary in its meaning, depending on whether it is short, long, thin, thick, straight or bent. This digit represents the ego, pride, confidence, security, ambitions, self-image and leadership. It also relates to religious beliefs. The length of it also makes a difference in its significance.

For example, an extended index finger shows a highly ambitious and charismatic personality. These types are proud and easily take on a leading role. A short one, if thick, can have the same meaning. The qualities weaken If it is thin, short or bent.

curved jupiter finger, bent index finger

What does it mean when you have a bent index finger?

A bent index finger is when the finger itself has a curve in the bone. If the finger is just leaning towards the thumb or middle finger, the meaning is different. Simply leaning towards the middle finger shows a shy or introverted nature. Leaning towards the thumb is the opposite, an extroverted and outgoing personality.

An index finger that bends towards the middle finger tells us that something from the individuals past has changed or affected their normal behaviour or attitude. It may be a person who was a shy child or someone who struggled with communication or independence. They may have had to depend on others, especially family.

It can also denote some form of insecurity, possibly due to a history of unfortunate economic times. If the uncertainty or worry is still current in their life, this finger will tend to cling to the middle finger. However, frequently these people grow up to become very self-assertive and determined achievers. They often persistently work towards their goals (and have a dutiful outlook on life). Especially if combined with a strong thumb and a loop of seriousness.

The types of curvatures

When the whole index finger curves towards the middle finger (Saturn), it shows that in relationships, they are prone to be emotionally secretive or feel unstable; exposing a possessive or jealous nature. At the same time, the subject is likely to cling to the security of their partner or their family, especially financially.

When only the very tip is bent, the mental faculties are restrained or reserved, potentially affecting the self-image. The subject might have gone through some change in their life which affected their focus or ideas.

When the index finger leans away from Saturn, towards the thumb, it displays a very extroverted and ambitious nature; these people also like to be in the centre of attention.

With the middle and the index finger naturally held wide apart, the qualities of motivation, self-confidence and individuality are celebrated. They are independent, unrestrained and not bound by the views of others.

curved finger, Crooked finger of Jupiter, bent index finger, meaning of bent index fingertip

If all the fingers appear bent

When all the fingers bend inwards naturally, (not due to arthritis or other), it shows a timid or insecure nature. It can also denote a selfish and shrewd character. The reason for that is that the bend inwards brings all the fingers together, suggesting a lack of openness or willingness. They may have a distortion of reality in their life, which can, in some people, lead to corruption or unlawfulness, especially if the middle finger is short.

Short Pinkie and Short Finger Meanings

short pinkie

Short Pinkie and the Meaning of a Short Finger in Palmistry

Do you have a short pinkie? Sometimes it’s challenging to decipher whether a finger is longer or shorter than usual. A small finger can be thin or short, sometimes both. A short pinkie is when it does not reach the top crease of the ring finger. Be aware though, that the pinkie might be low set, in which case you might have to measure it.

If you are interested in palmistry, you might think that it’s all about the lines on the palm. Modern hand readers know that the most crucial part of a good palm reading is knowing about the character of the person. Without this information, the reading can be deficient and unsuitable for the subject. The shape of the hand and the length of the fingers are the most noticeable first impressions. You can tell just by a quick glance if someone has something unusual like short fingers.

The best way to begin is by first deciding if all the fingers are of average length.

How to tell if the fingers are of average length? Firstly, look at the back of the hand. Notice whether the palm is long and rectangular or square. If the fingers appear similar length overall, then they are average. Typical length fingers should have the middle finger the longest and the ring and index almost the same.

short pinkie

When a finger is of average length, it characteristically shows a balanced individual who would possess a normal level of confidence, ambition, ego and responsibility. Note that most males have a ring finger slightly longer than the index.

I have found that the middle finger is the best guide to begin judging the index and ring fingers, and they should reach a little over halfway along the top phalange of the middle finger. Once you have established if the fingers are long or short, then you can decide whether the pinkie is shorter than usual.

But before jumping to conclusions about the associations of a small finger, another feature to look for is the thickness because often, a short finger will be compensated for by being thicker than average. If this is the case, then the person is likely to make up for any deficiency. I have seen this especially when the Index finger is short (which would typically indicate some lack of confidence). But if it is also thick, then the trust issues are of the past. A mount underneath the finger can also help offset the shortness or thinness of a finger by its prominence or markings such as vertical lines.

Short Pinkie Meanings

A shorter or thinner than the typical finger can depict under development in the qualities that are represented by it. A large and long thumb offsets the meaning and balances out any negative aspect. Some examples:

The Short Pinkie – communication difficulties or shyness. They can quickly become tongue-tied and so may struggle with speaking in front of an audience. Some can lack a sex drive or display immaturity emotionally. The short pinkie, in general, depicts a gentle person who tends to be quiet and prefers calm environments.

Physically, they may look young for their age, or some other aspect of their build is underdeveloped. If only the middle phalange is short, it is a sign of shyness. The shyness does not affect their ego, however, and they often have a high opinion of themselves.

If it is exceptionally short, it can suggest early mental handicap or slow learning ability. The extremely short Mercury finger also denotes a severe lack of confidence in their capacity to express themselves regarding sexual matters. For this reason, in relationships, they need a caring and understanding partner.

short finger meanings in palmistry

Individual short finger meanings

The ring finger – A short ring finger can show untapped creativity. An antisocial or introverted nature. It also suggests that the person puts more focus on their outer worlds, such as their ambitions and practical matters. They are reliable and self-motivated folk who rarely act irresponsibly. Their success comes from drive and ambition, rather than pure talent, but they may be shy in front of an audience, especially if the pinkie is also short.

The middle finger – A short middle finger shows a lack of seriousness or responsibility. This belongs to a risk-taker; there is boundless energy for life and always something to do, but they can quickly become disorganised within their home or work. They usually approach life focusing on the now, and not so much the future. In a career, they need excitement because it is problematic for them to concentrate on tedious activities. As far as boundaries, they may not always follow the rules or care about the law; especially if all the fingers have wide gaps at the base. Even more so if with a Simian line.

Short index finger

The development of the index finger can vary. If it is severely short, it reveals a history of peer group rejection. A slightly short index classifies as a deficient father syndrome. The personality can be affected either way and generally, the short index finger shows a small ego. The person with this little index can lack leadership, unless with a large thumb. You can tell if it’s short when it does not reach halfway along the top phalange of the middle finger.

Sometimes a low-set index can appear short, but the meaning is very similar because of the under-developed region. These people can be very caring about others needs but might struggle with looking after their own or finding their purpose in life. It may come from a lack of confidence in their ability or just an absence of direction in the early years. They can be easily persuaded due to their kindness or failure to make their decisions.

Short thumb

A small or short thumb is classed as such if it fails to reach halfway up the base phalange of the index finger. The little thumb denotes some weakness of character with a passive nature; a daydreamer rather than a doer. However, they are mostly ruled by their heart and so are not the least bit arrogant or aggressive. The natural qualities of drive, determination, and action that come with a regular length thumb are undersupplied. Instead, it shows someone timid, quiet, submissive and at times, lethargic. Easily influenced by others, they prefer that someone else guide them as to what to do. Alternatively, somebody else doing it for them; habitually they are used to being dependent on others.

Double Simian or One Simian Line on the Palm

double simian

About the Simian Line

Do you have a double Simian line? Or just one on either hand? The Simian line is a single crease that crosses the entire palm. On a small proportion of hands, the heart line, and head line appear to be a single line across the palm, known as the Simian line or crease. With the qualities of the head line (rational) and the (emotional) heart line seemingly combined or missing, it makes sense to regard this line as a sign of single-mindedness, someone who puts their heart and mind into what they do.

The association of this line was once thought only to be with chromosomal disorders such as Down syndrome. However, now it is mostly normal and recognised as a minor physical anomaly (MPA). In most cases, it is inherited. The name Simian, as a noun, means monkey. As an adjective, it means the characteristic of apes or monkeys. The Simian line is present in primates and named when found on the human hand. Because of the name’s origin, many palm readers now prefer to call it the single transverse crease. However, I do not think about or refer to any monkeys when I use Simian!

How rare is the Double Simian Line?

The Simian line is more common in males and usually runs in families; not all have it on both hands. Worldwide it is found only on around 1.5% on the one hand. It is also more common in Asians and Native Americans.

Pierre Paul Broca, a physician and anthropologist in 1877, presented the traditional view of palm lines in anthropology. He noted that simian lines appear only around 1-2% of Europeans or Caucasians but possibly more than 10% of Asian people. In 1906 R.L. Down labelled the Simian line as a diagnostic indicator.

What does having a Simian line mean?

Having a Simian line mainly determines a personality type. The Simian does not give you bad or good luck. It also doesn’t automatically make someone gifted or special. All sorts of people can be talented in their unique way, and the Simian line has its uniqueness in how the character presents itself.

A survey has shown that many are sensitive, intelligent, determined, passionate, emotional, creative, and in some ways, compulsive. In another recent study, it is believed to show forms of neuroticism, hyperactivity and introversion. If the Simian line is connected to the life line, it shows someone more reserved. If it’s not joined to the life line, the personality is more independent and outgoing.

In the Filipino language, they call the Simian line the ‘Rapas’ and are known to show someone intense and dedicated. It shows a lot of energy when it’s available. The person doesn’t stop easily once they begin to move. But once they do stop, they stay unmoved longer than usual. The Simian line people seem to have a switch, either on or off, with little in between.

Quality of the Simian Line

Like in all analyses of the lines, we look at the quality of the line. A smooth line shows a smoother life (or clearer thoughts and feelings). A messy-looking line can denote feelings or thoughts that are confused or scattered. When there’s a full chained-looking Simian line, it reveals a lack of clarity in thinking and feeling. It shows uncertainty in decision-making (and maybe even laziness).

Double Simian personality

The double simian type signifies a somewhat different, quite intense character, not necessarily a negative attribute as it would seem. I have noted that Simian lines give qualities of either a lot of empathy or none. Some tend towards less emotion and more rational thought. Others might tend to struggle with rational thought and follow their emotions. My survey indicates many double Simians as sensitive, emotional, and empathetic. But even more of them agree (from their perspective) that they are intellectual.

The owner of a Simian line can possess great potential for strong will and focus, many of whom are ambitious and driven, primarily if they have found their niche and had opportunities in their life regarding education and family support.

Simian and relationships

It is difficult for most double Simian liners to focus on a career and relationship simultaneously. If in a full-time career, they put their heart and mind into their work and often find that they’re too busy for relationships. Or it might be that the mind gets priority over the heart. They may find it hard to form deep connections with others because they are emotionally closed, socially awkward or shy.

Another reason they might struggle to find or keep relationships is because they find it challenging to see things from another’s point of view. Their partner may feel smothered by all the devotion and feel overwhelmed by the intensity, so they need to be relatively passive and understanding. On the other hand, if they do not feel an intense connection, the partner might feel unloved or unwanted, even if they are not.

If the Simian individual strongly focuses on his career, his/her partner must support their work. The Simian character can be egotistical and might expect (or continually look for) compliments or praise from their spouse. If you have Simian lines and want a deep connection, try to prioritise your emotional aspects and understand what your partner wants from you. You might have to put aside your ego and feelings of supremacy. Once you see a link with someone, however, you rarely let go, being devoted, caring and loyal, and expecting the same loyalty in return.

More about the Simian personality

The Double Simian type character tends to follow their heart, so they choose a career that gratifies that emotion. Mostly, they are either fully into what they do or fully not into it.  It is nearly always ideal for them to engage in their passion. Doing so is taking full advantage of the single-minded and determined nature. Typically, the owners of a Simian line follow their minds; in other words, they do not easily follow orders from others, hence coming across as stubborn.

However, to properly hypothesise about this crease and how it affects the personality, look at other hand features, such as hand shape, finger length, thumbs, and lines, including fingerprint and palm patterns. For example, a narrow hand will make a much quieter personality, someone who leans towards introversion. A person with long fingers will have a thirst for knowledge and likely be preoccupied with theoretical and/or spiritual matters.

Double Simian Line Personality Traits

You know you have come across a double Simian personality when you see obsessive behaviour, one of the most common traits of Simians. If used positively, this compulsion can be of great benefit to them. For instance, at work, always make sure everything is done on time, the right weight, perfect portions or whatever the job requires. The preoccupation with having everything a certain way is great if it aligns with others. It is most difficult for those who do not have Simian lines to understand some of the behaviours of a Simian owner because some things that the double Simian sees as common sense is not always so for others.

Some are very energetic, and the energy varies for each person. This energy comes in bouts; some find it difficult to relax to some extent. However, the energy is not as high on a soft water hand. While these people are intense, at the same time, they can be very empathic. Usually very open-minded, yet cynical; nonetheless, what you see is what you get. They are either fully on or fully off (extremely kind, loving and attentive) or overly argumentative and cold. Is Simian a curse? Is Simian good or bad? The Simian is not a sign that the person is cursed (a cursed Simian line) doesn’t exist.

Single Simian Line

If your dominant hand has the Simian line, then your distinct personality is more obvious to those who do not have it. The intensity and obstinacy of the personality are not so hidden. On the inside, the individual might feel normal emotions and reasoning. However, everything might be much more complicated in their day-to-day life. Of course, as with all palm reading, the shape of the hand, fingers and other features can offset these qualities.

A right-hand Simian on a fire-type hand (thick, long palm, short fingers), certainly enhances the qualities due to the already passionate and impulsive nature. This type of character might feel the need to go into whatever they are interested in deeply. They are not satisfied with skimming the surface and letting things go. They will overanalyse almost everything; they will give all they have, which is perfect in certain situations like research or the sciences. This type of determination and drive helps to get things done completely, not in halves. It might frustrate them when others do not.

In the words of a right-hand Simian person, “I like to think about everything in detail, such as when commenting or filling out forms, because I want everything perfect! My friends and people I know say that I have an attitude. However, I think it is my strength, I do not easily give up, and I am always curious.”

A narrow water hand with the qualities of introversion lessens these traits. While there might still be passionate nature, they will not be as assertive with it. The water hand gives more sensitivity and compassion, but it might also not handle stress.

The extra line above the Simian line

It is common to have an extra line above the Simian, like a floating heart line or a long Girdle of Venus. The floating heart line is usually much thinner than the Simian line and gives more sensitivity to the character. These people might be empathetic and kind-natured.

Double Simian line Variations

The Simian line can sometimes confuse the heart line that joins the head line. In some cases, the lines look like a Simian, and so can be a Simian Variant. There might be a branch from the line downward, acting as a head line. Or, there might be a branch rising upward, similar to the heart line. These Simian line variations are common and indicate the person has an outlet for their emotional or logical side which lessens the obsessive or singlemindedness.

The Suwon crease and Sydney line are variations of the Simian line; at least, they give similar meanings. The difference is that a heart line is present with the Sydney line. In the case of the Suwon crease, a head line is present. Both types can suggest someone highly intelligent, sometimes overly sensitive. To learn more about the Suwon and Sydney lines, you can get the ebook, or see this article.

Latest Survey Results

The latest results of my survey of the double Simian found that of the people who did the questionnaire, 48% had a double Simian, the rest had just one, either on the left or right hand.

Out of all the people, whether double Simian or only one, the results so far are: Sensitive – 90.9%.  Also, out of the same group, 70% believe they are intellectual. 28.5% of them also believe they are creative and athletic. It shows that in the combination of heart and mind, they find their strength in their intellect yet are very sensitive. You can do the survey here.

Health Signs from Fingernail Colour

health signs from fingernail, white fingernails, white nails meaning, is white nail bad?

HEALTH SIGNS FROM  FINGERNAIL COLOUR

Palmistry is not just looking at the lines on the palm, it is about analysing the whole hand, including the fingernails. When looking for health signs from fingernail colour, we apply the same principles as for the hands, which is to find something unusual. We also check the quality of the nail.

A delicate textured hand should have matching smooth looking nails. If the nails are coarse on a smooth hand, the healthy balance is out of proportion. The coarse nail is usually short dry and dense, more commonly seen on a big hand with rough skin.

A nail usually takes six months to grow from the root to tip so some markings can be timed based on where it is on the nail. As an example, a horizontal ridge halfway along the nail would suggest a change around three months ago.

A typical healthy nail is pliable; it has a smooth texture; average thickness and the colour of the nail is typically light pink. The moons should be milky white, and usually only visible on the thumb. (Text continues below)

WORD OF WARNING – Please don’t make the mistake of diagnosing health signs from fingernail colour, palms or lines alone, because many of these indicators are frequently changing according to the individuals.

BLUE/PURPLE NAILS

Bluish tinge within the nail bed can be due to circulatory or respiratory problems. Sometimes this is temporary due to cold weather or cold hands. It is normal for a woman to have bluish nails during the early teens and again at menopause when there are changes in the body hormones.

WHITE NAILS

A white-looking nail bed can suggest iron deficiency, low vitality or liver dysfunction. A pale, white or greyish tinge under the nails can indicate selfish leanings or lack of warmth. Depending on the quality of the nail, if it appears to be lifting off the quick, clouded, brittle and dry, it could indicate a fungal disease.

When the nail itself is white and clouded on the top section and yellow at its base, it can signify the onset of possible kidney disease.

YELLOW /BROWN

Yellow colour in the nail beds or a brownish discolouration, splotches or stains in the skin directly under the nail, can indicate jaundice, liver or gallbladder conditions. These marks can also occur when there is a high level of bilirubin in the blood due to the body producing too much or not get rid of it fast enough. Other conditions can also cause yellowing, such as fungal infection or regular contact with heavy-duty chemicals on the nails.

RED NAILS

Red fingernails mainly show a predisposition to poor circulation. Very red nails can be due to high blood pressure, bad temper or cardiovascular disease.

WHITE SPOTS OR LINES

White flecks or spots can show a vulnerable nervous system or weak constitution. They are usually the first sign of delicate nerves and can appear during times of stress or when the body lacks a mineral such as calcium, zinc or magnesium. White lines across the nail can indicate acute fever or coronary disease.

BLACK/RED LINES

Several long, thin black specks or lines underneath the nail, is associated with a bacterial infection of the heart valves. If the line or speck is very close to the tip, it may be just a splinter or injury. Red lines or specks can be due to long-term high blood pressure, or if at the tip, also injury.

Health from the fingernail quality

CONCAVE NAILS

The concave nail is opposite of the humped nail and appears dished and sunken in, like a spoon. It can be a sign of a lack of energy, a nervous disorder or physical stress. There may be nutritional deficiencies or exposure to a lot of water or chemicals which soften the nail. The concave nail can be a warning of a more severe oncoming illness.

HUMPED/CURVED NAILS

The humped nail, commonly associated with weak lungs, respiratory disorders such as emphysema, bronchitis or pneumonia. Long-term smokers often have nails that grow over the tip of the finger, appearing curved or humped (suggesting inadequate oxygenation). A severely humped nail, where the tip of the finger also appears swollen, indicates a more severe condition. A claw-like nail is frequent in the hands of older people who may have a problematic or dominant attitude. If there are no respiratory or age-related issues, these people are tenacious, but with a pompous attitude.

RIDGES ON THE FINGERNAILS

Horizontal ridges (grooves) on all the nails can suggest a change or interruptions in the individual’s health possibly due to severe dieting, long-term stress, acute infections, injury or trauma. Vertical grooves can occur with old age, but on a young person, they can show a delicate constitution, nervousness, stress, hormonal changes or poor nutrition. If all the nails have ridges, it could also be due to rheumatoid arthritis or overuse of nail polish removers.

BRITTLE OR WEAK NAILS

The cause of flaky nails can be a mineral imbalance, poor diet or an underactive thyroid gland. Using bare hands for work such as gardening and overuse of chemicals on the nails can also cause brittle and weak nails. Long-term stress shows as dry skin on the palms, which would also affect the nail.

Love Life Signs in Palmistry

You might be wondering what some love life signs in palmistry are? For example, how to see a person’s love style. Are they passionate or unfeeling? Do they have the energy for love, or are they sexually timid? These are questions that you might have when first entering a relationship.

The shape of the hand is the first place that we look for clues. The skin also comes into play when thinking about sensitivity and physical pleasures. The length of the fingers helps explain their love style. From the lines on the palm, we look mainly at the heart and head line.

Love life signs from a narrow shaped hand

A slim hand that appears long shows someone who might fall in love too quickly. If the hands feel soft and kind of damp with many fine lines all over the palm, it shows someone sensitive, intuitive and dreamy. Individuals with a slender and long palm are primarily introverted, preferring peace and moving at a slower pace in life. Don’t expect this sensitive soul to watch erotica with you! Because of their connection to emotions, it is easy to hurt their feelings. They can also pick up other people’s moods without even realising it.

Large palm with short fingers

Roundish or conic shaped hands (large palm short fingers) tend to be naturally romantic and impulsive. This shape is a fire type hand, and because of their energy and enthusiasm, they will usually try anything at least once. They are mostly the extroverted type with a personality that is charismatic, impulsive, adventurous, fun-loving and intense, physically and mentally. It is the fire types that are most likely to stray.

Square looking hands are the practical types. This shape shows someone down to earth, dependable and straightforward. If you are thinking about anything more than vanilla, you’re probably looking in the wrong place. Another thing is that they might get stuck in a routine that’s difficult to change. This earth shaped hand depicts a more private person. If you’re looking for loyalty, you’ve found it.

The character from the type of skin

  1. If the hands are soft, they seek pleasure.
  2. Very thin skin shows a lack of passion.
  3. Thick skin (if not coarse in texture) shows warmth and sensuality.
  4. Coarse skin is less sensitive to the feelings of others and tends towards physical pleasure.

Love Life Signs in Palmistry From the Heart Line

type of heart line, heart line types, passionate heart line, emotional line, palm love lines, heart line
  1. A curved heart line shows warmth and passion.
  2. A straight and short heart line is someone who loves their freedom. There is more physical attraction than emotional.
  3. A long heart line to Jupiter mount can be picky. They are the idealist.
  4. The line which reaches all the way to the index finger depicts the big-hearted individual. They are happiest when everyone around them is happy. They will express themselves clearly and you will know what they want from you.
  5. A Simian line can be very passionate or the opposite, very cold, depending on other factors. They might fluctuate from one to the other.

Signs from the head line

four types of head line on the palm
  1. A straight head line belongs to the more serious-minded type.
  2. A slightly curved head line depicts a flexible nature; they like to please others.
  3. A deeply downward curving line is a sign of a deep thinker, but it can also be moody and overly emotional.
  4. If the head line is barely visible, broken or wavy, the person might be passionate but also opinionated and unstable mentally.

The fingers

The shape of the fingers can give us clues to a person’s sensuality. The thicker the fingers, the more energy there is for life (unless very soft and floppy). The base phalanges and the ball of the thumb are where we look for the amount of sex drive. If the ring and little finger base phalanges are incredibly thick and bulbous, together with a high mount of Venus, it is a sign of a seducer with a high libido.

Long fingers tend to show someone who takes their time in getting to know someone before they jump into bed with them. The shorter fingers show impatience and belong to someone who wants to get things done quickly and now.

Little Finger length

When the little finger is sitting very low on the edge of the palm, it suggests under-development of the traits that the mount beneath it represent, for instance, confidence and communication. These people might be more private and emotional needs in relationships may be an issue.

The long pinkie can show a talent for creativity and communication, which can help in the area of intimacy. A small pinkie then shows the opposite, which is someone who is shy and quiet in their love style. The very small looking pinkie shows difficulty connecting, verbalising and naivety in emotional or sexual matters. If with a small thumb, they may also inadvertently seek a dominant marriage partner.
