Markings on the Palms in Hand Analysis

Markings on the palms, like slashes, stars and grilles

The markings on the palms that don’t seem to fit into any line category are still significant in that they can indicate a warning, such as from stress, or point to a sign of talent or area of focus.

Some marks can depict emotional or mental issues or even health problems. These marks can be recognised from ones like the grille, cross, star or slashes. If your hand is covered in a whole web of fine lines, it is likely that you don’t have any specific marks but are sensitive to your environment. (See this article about too many lines).

Markings on the palm mounts

In most cases, markings on the mounts accentuate the meaning of the mount either in a favourable or an undesirable way. A star is one marking that can be seen as good or bad.

But even these positive markings need to be viewed as a warning since sudden fame or success can affect personal life – An effect like keeping one’s head together and feet on the ground will ensure a more secure and happily ever after scenario. Also, it’s possible to have unfavourable fame, like some criminals.

Some of these markings will take a careful eye when analysing what they mean due to the difficulty in interpreting whether it is a mix of other lines overlapping or one that stands on its own.

STAR MARKINGS ON THE PALMS

A star will have at least three lines crossing at the same point and not be made up by other minor or major lines. It is also found independently on the palm. While most star markings on the mounts are welcome signs, they have a complex connotation. The reason could be due to the challenges usually involved in attaining high-level success or recognition.

Star on the Apollo line or Mount

The star is an unwelcome find on a line and can denote a sudden shock. A star on a line can be most favourable only when it’s on the Apollo line, Jupiter, or Apollo Mount. On these mounts, it reveals extraordinary talent, financial windfalls or even fame as a reward for consistent effort.

Star mark on the mounts

  • A star on the Mercury Mount can suggest a sudden rise in a business venture or denote dishonest behaviour.
  • The star is a mark of fame on the Mount of Apollo under the ring finger. However, it can also be the wrong fame, so be careful.
  • Star on Saturn might be problems with legal matters, restrictions or confines.
  • The star on the Jupiter mount can signify a sudden rise in fortune, achievement or honour.
  • On the Mount of the Moon, the star depicts possible celebrity status in a literary career. Some say it marks someone afraid of the sea or travelling on the water.
  • A star on the Venus Mount shows energy and passion, but it might come at the expense of another matter.

GRILLE MARKINGS ON THE PALMS

A grille marking appears on a hand when there is a group of many lines in a patch. Typically, vertical and horizontal lines overlap in one area, forming what may look like a lattice. But usually, the lines are not visible but an area that appears to be a blur of lines or skin ridges.

The grille mark, in most cases, is unfavourable. It mostly shows stress and overuse of mental faculties, depending on which part of the hand it is. For example, beneath the pinkie, the individual might focus too much on their business and communications, showing too much stress.

DOTS AND SLASHES

A dot on a line can depict many things. The thing to remember about dots is that they are not the same as moles. A mole is just a part of the skin, whereas a dot forms on the lines. The dot can be grey, brown, black, pink or red. The darker the colour, the deeper the meaning. In general, the dot depicts something suddenly happening. It can depict a shock to the mental or emotional aspects.

Slashes are like short crossing lines on top of one another and usually mean an obstacle. However, these obstacles are temporary because they do not break the line. If the slash is at the end of a line, it is like a dead-end road depicting a change in direction. A slash line on top of the marriage line is a deletion line, which often denotes a relationship that didn’t work out.

Prediction from the lines

Using markings on the palms for prediction, gather information from the past trials that have led them to be where they are now. Remember, any lines or markings that represent the future are just assumptions. Palm reading is not an exact science. What’s on the palms can show potential for the subject based on past actions, whether negative or positive. The reason prediction is only an assumption is that our hands have such a connection to our brain that mental activity is recorded on our palms. As our thoughts and desires change, new lines can form, and old ones can fade.

Major and Minor lines – Excerpt from Destiny Palmistry

Most palms have the major lines: a heart line, a line of the head (or Simian line) and the life line. Some hand readers also refer to the Saturn and Apollo lines as major ones. I do not because they are not always in everyone’s hands, along with the fact that they are most likely to change along with the person’s circumstances. The major lines are what people tend to look at first when examining the palms because they are usually the longest and deepest. These lines can also subtly change over time; therefore, what is evident in your hands now does not imply a fixed quality or event.

Some lines change quicker than others

The lines that are most likely to change quickly are the minor lines. But most lines depict what has led to the current circumstances and what is happening now. Remembering that any person can take control of their destiny, palmistry can be used to determine some consequences or guidance for our future. Accordingly, if a line shows an attribute, looking for other indications for confirmation is essential, as one feature can offset another.

For example, a line that shows success for a person may indicate this as a likely conclusion. However, if other signs are against it, such as a lack of willpower, attaining that success may be difficult (but not impossible). Finding adverse marks should not be bad but instead an incentive for making positive changes for better future outcomes.

Island on Life Line Meaning in Palmistry

island on life line

The Island on the life line

My curiosity about the lines on the palm, including the island on the life line, started when I was eleven. I attended my uncle’s fortieth birthday party with my family. He had hired a palm reader to entertain his guests, and as a curious little girl, I had to know about it. The palm reader quickly read my hands, and I have never forgotten what she said to me because they came true.

By the time I left high school, my interest had grown to the extent that I had spent many hours in the library searching for suitable books to read. It was not long before I was practising with my friends and taking notes for my study. My hands were the most significant asset as I continued my learning over the following years to come. It has been a long journey that continues as I live my passion for hand analysis.

The main reason I originally got interested in reading palms was personal. I discovered that some negative markings had appeared on my palms (based on what I had read in books). One mark was the look of my life line (the line which wraps around the ball of the thumb).

The island on the life line was like a split in the line and then it formed back into one.

island mark, islands on lines

Some palmists say that an island on life line is a negative mark, even to say it shows a disease like cancer. So, you can imagine my horror and fear when I found this island in my palm. This marking is not, however, a reliable indication of cancer, nor is it a forecast that cancer or any other disease is present. It is, at most, a sign that something causes the energies to split in two directions.

The energy levels might be depleted during the period indicated on the line. Mostly, the island on a line shows a temporary state, lasting only for its duration. In some people, of course, (depending on other factors) it can mean a predisposition to a particular disease, such as alcoholism, PTSD or depression.

Depending on what part of the line the island lies, has a different meaning.

Island marks on the life line

The island mark primarily indicates uncertainty or interruptions to life. These disruptions do not have to be negative. They can and often are positive changes or life events, such as having children or getting married. Starting a new kind of life at any age can interrupt a career, hobbies, friends, family and even the general outlook on life. These changes, in turn, can make their mark on the palm of your hand, especially on the life line.

island at the start of the life line

At the beginning

When the island appears at the very beginning of the life line, it depicts the early years from 1-7 (or so). It is fairly common to have this mark and sometimes it is just a connecting line. The line of life regularly connects to the head line, showing the security of a family and a cautious personality. However, if the mark is clear-cut, it can suggest illness during that period.

The island directly under the index finger depicts the age timeframe of around 15-21. Considering that at this age many young men and women go through hormonal change, it can represent the change into adulthood. I have also seen this type of line when the subject changed their country of origin. Check the other lines for clues of travel or other marks which might point to ill health.

island in the middle of the life line

When the island is at the halfway mark of the life line, it points to the approximate age of 35-40. Most people are well into their career or family life by this age, so it can be stress-related. There might be family issues like divorce or uncertainty about the career. If it’s stress-related, often there will be worry lines around the mark. Look for marks on the fate line about money and job. And the heart line and marriage lines about relationships.

island past halfway mark on the life line

Past halfway mark

The island past the halfway mark points to the age around 50-55. For women, it can depict the hormonal changes like menopause. For a man, it can be a time of uncertainty in life as well because he might also be having hormonal changes.

island at the base of the life line

At the very base of the life line, the island is the most unfavourable because it’s more likely to point toward ill health. Remember to check the consistency of the flesh, the texture of the skin and other indicators of resilience. Around the age of 60+ years, many people start to slow down as they near retirement age. It is a mark also common when someone who lives alone or becomes a grandparent, especially if they are very involved in the role.

A WORD OF WARNING

To back up any possible health issues acquired from palmistry, you should always consult a qualified medical practitioner. Please don’t make the mistake of diagnosing from the nails, palms or lines alone. Many of these indicators frequently change according to the individuals’ state of affairs.

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

The lines do change over time

Keep In Mind, that 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 the 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.

Predict the Future Using Palmistry?

by
books about palmistry, predict future, faithful personality

Predicting the future using the lines on your palms may be possible.

Is it possible to predict future events from the palms? Some of us, somewhat sceptical, can find it difficult to be convinced without systematic evidence and wonder why we continue believing in the predictive side of palmistry. My answer is that the studies of this subject, explored for centuries as a form of divination, have continued to develop in modern times.

Furthermore, there is clear support for scientific research that the hands connect to the activity of the brain, reflecting the character and well-being of the person. To predict the future using this evidence means it can be done to a degree, but the future can also be altered by having this information.

Many respectable doctors examine the hands, palms, and nails for signs of illness or health warnings. From these cautionary indications, we can potentially predict an outcome and make changes in our life if necessary.

The Major Lines

The major lines are what people tend to look at first when examining the palms because they are usually the longest and deepest. For a more accurate reading, you must predict the future through the major lines. The minor lines change too often.

These major lines can also subtly 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, the information gathered in the past events that have led the person to be where they are now. Any lines or markings that represent the future are just an assumption, whether negative or positive.

Our thoughts and desires change, new lines can form, and old ones can fade. The lines that are most likely to change quickly are the minor lines. Keep in mind that any person can take control of their destiny. Palmistry can be used to determine some consequences or guidance for our future. Accordingly, if a line shows an attribute, it is important to look for other indications for confirmation, as one feature can offset another.

For example, a line that shows success for a person may indicate this as a likely conclusion. However, if other signs are against it, such as a lack of willpower, attaining that success may be difficult; (but not impossible). However, finding adverse signs should not be negative but an incentive for making positive changes for better future outcomes.

Predict the future from the Career line (fate line, Saturn line).

Most major lines on the palm are present on nearly every hand, but what if they are not? The Career line, or Saturn line (fate line), which travels from the base of the palm towards the middle finger, is not always present in young children and not even in some adults.

If the line stops and starts, it suggests there are changes in life or career. If the fate line stops at the head line, the subject might have made a conscious decision about their work. A line that stops at the heart line suggests an emotional decision.

Unestablished career goals often lead to a missing career line. However, what if you are an adult with a job? This line, in general, indicates the success of a career, whether they are settled or varying and changeable. It is not often absent in adults, but it does not mean anything negative when this happens.

During my career, I have met some businesspeople whose hands the line were absent. They all were happy to say that they were ‘self-made’ men. No fate would decide the course of their career.

So, the missing fate line (see an image of fate lines below) is just an indicator of a free spirit. They do what they want, create their path and are not bound by any regiment. (You can watch a video about the career line here.)

The fate line

A fate line that starts at the life line (1) depicts a career through study. One which starts inside the life line (2) might be a career in a family business. From the base of the hand, the fate line can show a protege from an early age. This type will have boundaries in their choice and are often motivated to succeed early in life. From the (4) position, the career involves the public or the public eye. Learn more about the (career) fate line here.

Signs of Success in Your Hands and Palm Lines

by
palmistry, signs of success

When looking for signs of success in your hands, the first thing to analyse is the shape of the hand. Ideally, it is a ‘practical’ hand, the working hand with a square or squarish palm. Somewhat rectangle is common but not too narrow. A long, narrow palm belongs to the daydreamer, and whilst they can still become successful, it might not be in the way that the practical type is. The square palm gives the organisation abilities. 

The second thing to look at is the texture and firmness of the hand. A successful person needs energy and determination to get the work done. Therefore, the hand should look firm and the skin not too soft. (Read about skin texture below this article). The fingers, if straight, are the best kind.

The rising line to Apollo Finger

Someone successful in their field, especially if it involves being in the public eye (singing, dancing, acting, lion taming?), has one thing in common: a rising line to Apollo (to the ring finger). The Apollo line is one of the signs of success in palmistry.

Apollo, on the hand is the area of the ring finger and the mount just beneath it. A vertical line that begins low on the palm and rises clearly and distinctly into the mount of Apollo beneath the ring finger represents the arts, including fame and fortune. For this Apollo line (success line) to show the achievement of fame, there must be a reasonably clear-cut and continuous line with a sharp definition. If there are two lines of Apollo, the chances of success are greater. A line of Saturn alongside the line of Apollo is a helpful mark because it shows the individual is trying to reach goals and is motivated to do so.

What if you do not have a Success/Apollo line?

If you have a talent and are good at what you do in the arts, a lack of Apollo line doesn’t mean you cannot be successful and famous. It may be that you have no expectations from your work, or in some cases, you don’t fully appreciate your gift. Of course, as with all indicators on the palms, you need to compare the factors before concluding. In this instance, one right thing to look for is the length of the pinkie finger (Mercury).

Watch the video lesson about the success line here.

Signs of Success from the Fingers.

A long pinkie finger shows someone who can easily express themselves. The ability to communicate is one of the best attributes; with a good vocabulary and raw eloquence, they are social, influential and very organised. It also means they are naturally good with money and do well in business, politics, science, education, television or radio broadcasting. Writing, entertaining, and music often come naturally. Any subject that requires conveying knowledge or expressing themselves using words.

You have a long thumb if your thumb length reaches at least halfway to the second crease on the index finger. Long thumbs show determination and a will to get things done. A small thumb proves a little more effort is required in most things. A mentor should be a requirement if you have a small thumb and want to be a success. The tip of the thumb will have a slight kink backwards and might be somewhat flat but square-ish front on. An overly bulbous tip will give more aggressive traits. The thumb is ideally medium to low-set on the hand.

The spaces between the fingers (at the base) should not be overly wide. The bigger the gaps, the more likely money slips through the fingers.

wide gaps between the fingers meaning in palmistry
Overly wide spaces on all fingers can show frivolousness with money
finger spacing in palmistry
The gap between the ring and middle fingers should be the smallest

Signs of success, a workaholic.

A workaholic sign in palmistry is a well-developed Mercury finger (the pinkie). It’s not a common thing to have a thick pinkie. But, if it appears thicker than the rest of the fingers or abnormally large, it shows someone who may be rather talkative. They will also have a keen interest in business or money. These people are perfectionists and potentially very shrewd.

Signs of success from the skin texture and consistency

When reading hands, it is essential to take in as many factors as possible to fully understand the make-up of the individual. Taking note of the skin texture and consistency of the flesh should be one of the first to receive your attention. The usual successful person has average to slightly coarse skin.

These factors can alter or add to the meaning of some natural traits; the delicate skin lessens the qualities, giving some refined or sensitive characteristics. Coarse skin shows the opposite, a lack of refinement. The thicker the skin, the better it protects the body from toxins. Therefore, thick-skinned people do not get sick nearly as often as thin-skinned folk. However, when they do, it comes suddenly, usually without warning.

AVERAGE (SLIGHTLY SMOOTH)

Mostly found in women, the healthy skin is not so soft to be silky, nor will it feel or look coarse. The ridges are relatively well visible, and the texture is like paper. The medium skin shows a reasonable amount of energy and sensitivity. They are receptive and casual, with excellent social and communication skills. The type you would find in a lawyer, doctor or office worker.

AVERAGE (SLIGHTLY COARSE)

The ridgelines on the palm and the fingerprints are easy to see on those with rough skin. There are not as many fine lines on the palm. It feels slightly rougher than paper. This type of skin is found in men or women who possess the right amount of vitality (physically and mentally) but aren’t particularly refined or sensitive. They are well-grounded, active, sporty, successful, hardworking and motivated.

Do you need help with motivation?

Are you procrastinating? Some tips to reduce the boredom of some jobs:

  • Try playing music or listening to the radio while you work.
  • If at home, watch television while you work and use the commercial breaks for the most difficult tasks.
  • Call a friend on the phone while you work on jobs such as the dishes or folding washing.
  • See if you can get a family member to help do a job and set yourself a time limit. My children are willing to help if I say, ‘Let’s see how quickly we can do a ten-second tidy.’ We all start tidying and counting while we do it or use a stopwatch to time ourselves, and they have more fun doing it if I help.
  • Do the boring jobs first? Get them out of the way quickly so you have more time to do the things you love.
  • Are you happily helping everyone else finish their tasks and going out of your way just to be nice?
  • Do you stop and ask yourself, ‘Do I want to do this?’ If the answer is no, then say no. You need to finish a major task of your own first. It is difficult to say no when you want everyone to think you are a superwoman or a man. However, you know you have taken control of your life when you do, which feels good!

Reasons Why You Need to Learn Palmistry

Why learn palmistry? Because the hands are amazing, what would we do without them? Not only are they the most useful body part, with their amazing capabilities. An article from academic.oup.com named ‘The sensory hand” – The Principles of Anatomy as Seen in the Hand (1919), was principally focused on the hand as a motor organ. Fascinated as they were with the capacity of the human hand for precision and dexterity of movement.

In this, they saw the hand as an executive organ of the brain. To Napier, the hand was the mirror of the brain and ‘there can be no such combination as dextrous hands and clumsy brains’. – What a great quote! The hands are amazing and most interesting because they also reveal character. When you learn palmistry, you make your life easier.

What is palmistry?

Palmistry analyses the hands, palm lines, ridges and fingerprints. These days, contemporary palmistry steers away from the predictive side of reading hands. The art in Western culture is mainly used to depict character, career and health. Other cultures do things a little differently. Palm readers in the East prefer the predictive reading of accidents and disasters, and some even tell people when they might die. Knowing those things through their hands is impossible, and readers should avoid even attempting to look for them.

Most modern-day hand readers do not see palmistry as fortune-telling. People still want to know their future from their hands, but the problem is that the hands show what is happening right now, not what might happen. Realistically, the lines cannot predict the future. People make their own decisions in life. They can tell you that whatever you have done up until now can show as a kind of consequence of what may come. For instance, if you are not taking care of yourself or addicted to food or substances, your health may suffer.

Can the hands show illness?

Some indicators on the hands can tell of poor health, especially if there is a long-term condition. However, it’s not guaranteed that you can predict a health problem. If you have features that depict weakness in the body or the character, a hand analyst could tell you what weaknesses to work on to achieve a desired outcome.

When reading hands, consider all aspects before making assumptions because some elements balance or cancel out others. As a rule of thumb, always look at the thumb. It is a critical factor in good reading.

When meeting new people, it is interesting to learn about their character from their hands before even speaking to them. In relationships, you and your potential lover have a greater chance of success when you discover their relationship behaviour and if it matches yours.

thumbs in palmistry

It is exciting to have this knowledge and to be able to understand people and improve relationships with them! Whether for business, relationships or personal reasons, your knowledge of hand reading benefits you in countless situations. If you have the qualities of someone motivated and driven to succeed, then you are more likely to have the result of becoming successful.

Recognise the character quickly from the Venus mount (ball of thumb).

The Venus mount symbolises beauty, seduction, romance and love. It also shows the individual’s well-being, indicating how much energy and affection are available; a flexible, well-rounded mount is ideal, showing someone friendly, sympathetic and affectionate. A flat mount would depict the opposite: a lack of energy and warmth.

Another fine example is the length of the fingers. If you want to learn palmistry, you need to be confident in the knowledge of your fingers. Short or long fingers tend to stand out; therefore, it is a good way to instantly recognise the character. The short fingers reveal impatience for minor details but with a quick mind.

The long fingers show patience for more information and a much slower thinking person, but mentally active. If the fingers appear neither long nor short, you generally have the perfect balance of character.

When I first met my partner, I recall I looked at his hands (as would any palm enthusiast like myself). The first thing I noticed was that he had long fingers. I have fairly short fingers, so straight away, I knew that we were going to have a different way of thinking.

Twelve reasons to learn palmistry:

  1. Discover how a mere handshake can tell you who you are dealing with in your life!
  2. See how the areas of the hand show what type of “mind” they have.
  3. Learn how the hand depicts intuitiveness, sensitivity, practicality or thinking types.
  4. The eleven areas of the palm illustrate which part of their life receives the most energy (love, work, dreams, instincts, nature, music).
  5. Find out how easy it is to see negative traits from the setting of the fingers.
  6. The individual length of the fingers depicts the most important character traits they cannot hide!
  7. Recognise a charmer who might be a compulsive liar!
  8. Know when you have come across a stubborn and controlling bully.
  9. An instant clue to his style of lovemaking and more.
  10. Is your potential lover going to match your libido?
  11. Poor health warnings at a quick glimpse of the fingernails.
  12. Career options that suit your hand shape.

Venus Mount on the Palm Reveals Your Power

by
venus mount, mounts on the palm, areas of the hand

See Zest for Life From Your Venus Mount and Other Areas of the Palm.

The Venus mount is a term in palmistry for the ball of the thumb. The padded areas on the hand are named after planets, and the ones located under the fingers have the same name as the finger, except the thumb. These mounts have meanings based on the planets and Gods. For example, Venus, the Goddess of love and Mars, the Roman God of war. If one of these areas appears flat, it can indicate that the person does not put much energy into that part of their life, like love or fighting (war).

A large, well-developed mount would suggest the opposite, where much focus directs to the area. The person will have more personal power and energy than someone with a flat mount. However, as a standard rule, if the hand has large mounts all over, the person has high energy levels with enthusiasm for life. If the palm mostly consists of flat mounts, there is less zest for life.

The mount of Venus

The Venus mount is the padded area enclosed by the line of life. It indicates the ability to express emotions and affection. Symbolising beauty, seduction, romance and love. It also shows the individual’s well-being, demonstrating how much blood flow and energy is available; a flexible, well-rounded mount is ideal, showing someone friendly, fit, sociable, outgoing, sympathetic and affectionate.

You can find music ability from a sharp angle of thumb (angle of Rhythm) and a loop of music on the skin ridge pattern on the lower section of the mount. A flat or flabby mount shows a lack of energy; there may also be physical issues causing tiredness.

A high mount of Venus in a woman’s hand does not tend to be extravagance as a Mount of the same strength would in a man’s hand. In a man’s hand, a big ball of the thumb, when soft, can give him the qualities a Venusian possesses, like attractiveness, love, sympathy and even generosity.

If it is immense and firm, there is enormous vitality and potentially high libido. A very full and hard mount of Venus, together with a thumb with a bulbous tip and an enlarged inner Mars, indicates a bad temper or aggressiveness.

(See the video lesson about this and Mars mount here.)

Mount of Moon

This area at the base of the hand, opposite the Mount of Venus, is the mount of the Moon. It rules your moods, emotions, romance, travel, and imagination and reflects the female principle (yin) – the mother, the wife, and fertility. It associates with the subconscious, sensitivity and passions.

In astrology, the moon represents your true inner self. It is a symbol of emotions. A strong moon would depict a need for giving and receiving emotional support. When the moon is developed in a man, it still signifies his sensitivity (although he might not show it). It can symbolise his mother, his wife, or the ideal woman.

  • The size of the Moon area shows imagination and creativity.
  • A full Moon mount reveals the love of travel, empathy, nurturing and sensitivity.
  • This area is also where we can see intuition and memory.

The Mount of Moon, when well developed, shows a kind, inventive, creative and imaginative personality. They are risk-takers and can succeed in business due to their originality and inspirational ideas.

Jupiter mount

lower mount of mars

The mount of Jupiter beneath the index finger tells how much a person likes to dominate, lead and organise. On a well-marked hand, a large Jupiter mount indicates success from a character’s perspective.

The Jupiter mount shows the self-confidence, pride, ego, religion and the strengths and weaknesses of the character. Jupiter rules your luck, growth and wisdom. They are the most independent of all types in their career. If the Jupiter mount shares the space partially beneath the Saturn finger, there is a hands-on ability to achieve goals.

Someone with strong Jupiter aspects is ambitious and likes to be in charge. They are fearless, determined and have an authoritative charisma, so often seen in the hands of politicians. Any position which allows them to hold a commanding position suits the Jupiterian type. However, that doesn’t mean they are strictly business because often they care deeply and have a warm heart.

Religion is another strong quality of Jupiter, as is the love of food. Their fault can be going too far and extremes in everything, so a well-formed head line is to their benefit.

DISPLACED MOUNTS

Sometimes these mounts are not found directly below and in the centre of the finger. This is called a displaced mount. When this occurs, the qualities from one mount are shared with another. The fingers, which relate to the mounts, share similar qualities. Often, a well-developed mount also displays a well-developed finger.

Apollo mount

Under the ring finger is the mount of Apollo or the Sun. When this mount is large, it indicates a desire to be recognised. Positive aspects of Apollo show a versatile, generous, happy and adaptable person. They love to see the beauty in all things. He could be an artist or surround themselves with art. They enjoy luxury and, in the practical world, good taste. Negative aspects point to gambling or paying too much attention to appearances. If the mount of Apollo is displaced towards the mount of Saturn or between the two fingers, the creative side of the personality is significant; often, these people have a loop of seriousness.

SATURN MOUNT

The Saturn finger (middle finger) and the mount beneath it represent your boundaries; it is the balancing force of the psyche aiding rational thought. It is also the symbol of the elderly, grandparents and wise men. A large mount here can reveal pessimism or one with many responsibilities. Positive aspects show an organised and dependable person.

MERCURY MOUNT

The Mercury finger is the little finger. The little finger and mount represent your ability to communicate in personal relationships or business. It shows how well you connect with others as well as the amount of mental capacity and ideas. Positive aspects show quick wit and intelligence. Negative aspects point to deceitfulness or nervousness.

If Mercury’s mount is large and partially under Apollo, the communication element is used creatively, such as a writer. This displacement usually happens when the Apollo line rises to the finger.

The pinkie (Mercury) finger plays a significant role in the overall character balance; if well-developed, it lessens the struggles to succeed in all areas of life. (See an article about the pinkie meanings here).

PLUTO

The area of Pluto joins the Moon mount and likewise represents the subconscious and imagination. It connects to occultism, death, obsessions and sexual energy. It also reveals nurturing and maternal instincts. In some hands, this area appears to droop below the wrist lines.

MARS MOUNTS

The areas of Mars run through the centre of the palm; they show the strength of character, in general. The outer Mars area under the mount of Mercury and above the Moon indicates the amount of moral courage.

The area below the mount of Jupiter and the inside of the thumb is where we find our physical courage and energy. It symbolises action, boldness, and virility. The inner Mars also represents assertiveness, aggression, and violence. A developed mount would belong to an athlete or someone in the military because it shows a higher level of temper and impulsiveness. These people love danger.

NEPTUNE

Neptune represents inspiration, sentiment, dreams, healing and psychics. However, there is a connection between drug addicts and depression. It shows a highly developed sense of psychology and awareness and of perception of ideas, buildings, and inventions. With a well-developed mount, the individual often loves being near water.

URANUS

Uranus is a rarely visible mount, and its position in the palm is controversial. It has sometimes been said to lie in between the head and heart line next to the mount of Jupiter. However, it is mostly found near the area where the fate line and head line meet or on the edge of the mount of the Moon.

MARKINGS ON THE MOUNTS Markings on these mounts affect the area described, often heightening the qualities of the mount or showing an over-use of a matter. Some distinct markings can be positive signs depending on what the mount represents.

Life Line Marks on the Palm Explained

Palms with many lines and life line marks

In palmistry, the life line (located around the ball of the thumb) helps to read potential life changes. The life line marks can help detect what type of change might occur (or has occurred). In this article, I have included several marks that might appear on the life line.

Most palms will have the lines that are classed as ‘the major’ lines; a heart line, a head line and the life line. The major lines are what people tend to look at first when examining the palms because they are usually the longest and deepest.

Using the lines for prediction

If you are trying to use the lines for prediction, gather information based on past events that have led the person to be where they are now. Past events can help us see where the future direction might go. Remember that these lines and marks can change over time. Therefore, what is evident in your hands now does not imply a fixed quality or event. As our thoughts and desires change, new lines can form, and old ones can fade.

The more marks and lines, the more active the mind or emotions.

Most of the fine lines are present because they show the individual’s nature as being sensitive, caring, nervous or possessing a very active mind. If someone tends to stress a lot, they will have more lines or marks.

Keeping in mind that any person can control their destiny, palmistry can be used to determine some consequences or guidance for our future. Accordingly, if a line shows a particular attribute, it is essential to look for other indications for confirmation, as one feature can offset another.

Life line marks and what they mean.

Almost all horizontal life line marks, such as crossbars, stars, and slashes, are classed as negative interference or obstacles. A hand with many of these lines belongs to someone with much nervous energy. They are sensitive to everything around them. They worry a lot and possibly tend to look for problems to worry about.

A rising line denotes a positive time. It can be something like an achievement of a goal or the completion of a study. Depending on other signs, it can suggest a boost in finances.

A drooping line from the life line is less favourable because it can denote a loss or a less welcoming period. (You can watch the lesson about life line marks here.)

More about the meanings of marks

The fork in a line shows divided energy, therefore, depicts a decision of some kind, often related to changing location. A spot or dot is not so favourable, as it can denote a sudden shock, injury or trauma. The spot appears like a dent or nodule (not like a mole or freckle).

A cross mark denotes an obstacle a little more difficult than the bar line. The grille on a line is also a mark that is not too good because it shows much uncertainty, anxiety, depression or even physical restriction.

An island has a similar meaning to the grille in that it, too, shows uncertainty. However, because the lines continue, it is not as damaging.

What if someone has hardly any lines or marks?

A hand with very few lines and markings belong to those who rarely fuss. They are not significantly affected by emotions. A single broad and unblemished line describes an unobstructed life path. These people don’t allow anything or anyone to change or distract them from their life journey.

Summary

So, the markings, no matter what they look like, indicate interruptions to life. These interruptions do not have to be negative. They can and often are positive changes or life events, such as having children or getting married. (See video on marriage lines here.) Starting a new life at any age can interrupt a career, hobbies, friends, family and even the general outlook on life. These changes, in turn, can make their mark in the palm of your hand, especially on the life line.
