Health Warnings in Palmistry

Health warnings in palmistry usually combine many indicators from the hands. One thing that some people might miss is the fingernail colour.

When looking for health signs from fingernail colour in palmistry, 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.

WORD OF WARNING

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

Quality of the nail: 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.

Broken Heart Line or Chained and Marked Line

BROKEN HEART LINE MEANING IN PALMISTRY

If you understand a little about palmistry, you might know that not everyone has the same heart line type. The heart line is the upper transverse crease. Typically, the heart line begins on the side of the palm on the pinkie side. It stretches horizontally to somewhere around beneath the middle or index finger. However, this line appears very different in some people, like when it’s a broken heart line in one or more places.

A heart line in palmistry shows how we feel or shows our emotions. It also depicts how sentimental we are (or aren’t). A smooth and long curved line would suggest an effortless and unchanging way of emotional thinking. Think about this line as energy flow. If broken, the flow of feeling has changed or can change. (See types of heart line here).

A broken heart line can manifest in difficulties expressing feelings or someone who is subject to mood swings or emotional stress. There may be a period in their life when there is a significant change such as a broken relationship. These people might often feel like they are not emotionally connected and feel phases of unattachment.

Where is the heart line broken?

Sometimes the meaning of a broken heart line can change depending on where the break is on the line. On a few occasions, I have seen the break at the start of the line near under the pinkie. If at the start, it can represent an early upset in life, such as losing a parent at a young age. By young, I mean up to the age of 21 or so (approximate).

If the break is in the middle of the line, it can still represent a period of hurt or emotional confusion. But mainly, it shows a disconnection on the emotional side. I mean that the person might have strong feelings one minute, and the next, they feel different (or disconnected).

A broken line at the end can depict the change of feelings or the way the person handles their relationships; their relationship style. For example, they might have previously been hopeless romantic, but not anymore.

CHAINED HEART LINE

A string of small islands throughout shows a moody, changeable and hypersensitive nature. Sometimes the chained look is brought about by mineral deficiencies in the diet. Look carefully at the other lines on the palm to see if they are all chained in appearance. If so, there may be some mental disturbance or disability issues.

The chained heart line shows a nervous disposition emotionally. It can also be one of the signs of depression; look at the head line for breaks, islands or one that dips all the way down to the Mount of Moon.

If the chained appearance is only on the part of the line, it can represent a period of indecisiveness about their feelings. Some see the chained line as a sign of a fickle flirtatious or unfaithful lover. A heavily chained line can suggest actual heart problems.

BRANCHES ON HEART LINE

Rising branches reflect idealistic and happy experiences and a keen interest in the opposite sex. Drooping branches show insecurity or disappointments, poor quality relationships or losses.

If there are drooping lines along its entire length, it can indicate a sense of failure or negative thinking with regards to relationships or the fact that they may be restless or hypersensitive, possibly even prone to depression.

FORK AT THE END REACHES HEAD LINE

A fork at the end of the heart line, with the lower section touching the head line, the individual prefers everything to run smoothly and avoid confrontations whenever possible. If a part of the heart line touches the life line, like a branch or line connecting the two, it can be due to a secure connection with the parents.

In some situations, where the family was not close, this connecting line can be a yearning for closeness. Someone with this type of line may need much emotional support. If a branch from the Heart line reaches past the life line, into the Mount of Mars, it suggests a  loss of a relationship.

DIRECTION OF BRANCH INFLUENCE LINES

The thicker end of a line is its starting point. The branch lines almost always taper at the end. See example – One and two are dropping lines, three and four are rising.

MARKINGS ON THE HEART LINE

A star mark would suggest an emotional upset or shock.

Bar lines depict obstacles in unions or restlessness.

A cross is also an obstacle but for a more extended period than the bar line.

Poison Line (Poison Bar) Meaning on the Palm

by
poison line

Poison line (also known as the allergy line)

The poison line or poison bar (also called allergy line or Via Lascivia) is sometimes challenging to recognise because it doesn’t look the same on every hand. A long and slim hand with many lines are the ones most likely to have this line. Although it can be on any hand, the nervous type is most common.

Where there is a poison line present on the palm, it doesn’t mean there is poison in the body. But what it can denote is sensitivity towards food, drugs or both. The person could be sensitive to airborne pollutants, smoking, and alcohol. This line also appears redder when an allergy or infection is present in the system.

Strangely enough, however, those with this line often seem to have a subconscious awareness of their sensitivity, leading them to leave behind drugs and chemicals entirely. Naturopaths and healers are among many who possess this line. Beryl Hutchinson says that it shows a strong awareness of affinity with nature. It might even suggest healing and self-healing abilities.

Some subjects who have this line do not fall into the ‘allergy’ category. If this is you, it is possible the line is a ‘blockage’ line to the Mount of Moon and what it represents. It might be reducing certain qualities such as creativity, imagination, nurturing etc. If the line sits a little higher on the mount, it might be what’s called the intensity line. (Read about it below)

Length and depth of the poison line

The length and depth of the line give slightly different meanings. If the line is long and stands out, there is sensitivity to drugs, chemicals and or foods. A finely broken and islanded line shows food cravings, and sometimes it is evidence of diabetes. If it reaches all the way through the life line and to the mount of Venus, the effect is more profound. In the case of the latter, it will be regarded as the ‘escape line’ or what some people call the addiction line. The addiction line can also vary in its length. It might also sit just above the wrist lines, or a little higher.

allergy line, poison line, intensity line, palmistry lines

The intensity line

The intensity line can be a little tricky to spot because it can look similar. In most cases, the intensity line is a clean straight line (unlike a crease that is made by the allergy line) and originates from the life or fate line, horizontally towards the outer edge of the palm. The person with this line has an urge to seek drama or thrills. It is one of the signs of hyperactivity or ADHD.

The intensity line is a variation of the allergy line. It is typically on an intuitive hand, someone with many lines on the palm. These people tend to feel a heightened sense of energy about them. They might crave the excitement of activities like bungee jumping, (or on the other end of the scale, drugs). So, you could say that this line, whether an allergy line, poison line or intensity line shows significance for two types of people, the hyperactive and the potential drug addict.

Allergy line on your child’s’ palm

Children with the poison line tend to be candidates for hyperactivity and have reactions to sweets or food additives. As a parent, if you see this line on your child’s hand, you should take care of their diet and observe for any changes in their behaviour that might relate to the changes in the meals. If there are several star patterns among the lines, it can be a sign that the diet is impacting the child’s life.

Palm Warts the Meaning in Hand Analysis

by
palm warts

What are palm warts?

Palm warts are small rough, grainy skin growths often found on the hands. They might also have tiny black dots (formed by clotted blood vessels). Common warts are noncancerous and usually caused by a viral infection of the skin. The cause is a virus called human papillomavirus. There are many variations of the virus. The one that causes warts on the hands differs from those in other body parts.

Some people think palm warts are malignant, but they are harmless. Most warts go away without any treatment. The cause might be that the immune system is weak for various reasons. However, in palmistry, many see these warts as something other than a skin infection.

See your doctor about warts on the palm if:

  • They are painful or change in appearance.
  • You’ve tried to treat them, and they continue or spread.
  • They interfere with activities.
  • You aren’t sure if they’re common warts.

Palm Warts in hand analysis

In hand analysis, warts show anxiety and self-criticism. Warts can appear on the palms due to long-term stress and emotional and mental overload; things might be out of control for the person. Like a bubble, a small white or pale spot has the same connotation as a wart on the palm.

  • On or near a union line (marriage line) under the pinkie on the side:  Problems within the relationship or with the sex organs.
  • On the Mercury mount (padded area under the pinkie): Communication or business issues.
  • Apollo mount or line (padded area under the ring finger): Reputation harm or stress within a social circle.
  • Saturn mount or line (padded area under the middle finger): Work, responsibility, legal or father/grandfather problem.
  • Jupiter mount (padded area under the index finger): Self-esteem or block in ambitions.
  • Venus mount (the ball of thumb): Worry over other people or actual physical disease.
  • Mount of Moon (lower padded area opposite the thumb): Long-term stress over emotional matters or mother/grandmother.
  • Tip of the thumb: Unable to make things happen.
  • Tip of the index finger: Lack of confidence.
  • On the middle fingertip: Worry over security, safety or money.
  • Ring fingertip: Relationships, social or creative block.
  • Tip of the pinkie: Business or sexual communication block.
  • The middle of the palm: Long-term personality issues such as bad temper, impatience, or lack of drive.

Other things to look for about the health from the hands

It’s always good to check for other signs on the hands in case of health concerns. Fingernails can give clues to some of these problems. When looking for clues to the health of the nails, we apply the same principles as for the hands: finding something unusual.

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. For 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; 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. See about the fingernails here.

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

The red 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 are red. If so, the subject may be doing everything in excess, mentally or physically.

Colour of the palms

We check the colour of the hands, looking for clues to the individual’s health. The colour is what shows the circulation of the blood or lack of it. The blood runs through the veins and arteries; it absorbs and carries away impurities, renewing and maintaining life.

The pink palm has a healthy amount of blood flowing and is a health mark. This colour depicts a vibrant, happy person, not pressured by too much blood or weakened by too little. These people can appreciate love and tenderness. They are optimistic, enjoy life and are social with people around them. It is the colour that balances the negative aspects of the hand.

PALE (WHITE) HANDS: The white hand shows coldness, a lack of warmth, life and desirability. Rather than be social, pleasant and comfortable, they have no interest in pleasing others. The blood does not reach the skin adequately, which comes from the muscularly weak heart. White-handed people lack enthusiasm and passion for love. However, they are imaginative and mystical. Many have an active mind which makes good litterateurs as a poet or prose writer.

RED HANDS: The redness of the hands comes from the force of the blood flow. It shows intensity in everything they do, whether business, art, love or war. They may find it hard to exercise self-control because the mind is blocked in its action by forceful blood. They show activity in the body and mind to the extreme. If only on the fingertips, the brain is active. If only on the inner Mars mount, they feel angry or anxious about something.
