The Science Behind Palm Reading, Exploring the Fascinating World of Chirology

Palm reading, also known as chirology, is an ancient practice that involves studying the human hand to gain insight into a person’s character and future. The science behind palm reading evolved because we know the brain directs and communicates with the hands.

The Skin Texture is the First Clue

A human hand’s fineness or coarseness determines whether it suits fine or coarse labour. There is no question that other markings indicate the types of jobs it is best suited for. A lady’s delicate hand cannot do the same strenuous work as a labourer’s big, mighty hand. The labourer cannot easily do the beautiful stitching of the lady’s fingers so carefully created.

Our Bodies Are Adapted to Different Things

This logic is also valid for other body parts; a person’s height indicates what work he can do. Nor is there any doubt but if different persons are engaged in different kinds of labour. Those with the most suitable physical capabilities and natural aptitude are best suited to carry out these tasks. This conclusion is drawn from our knowledge that animals bred by man have their parts and faculties adapted to his service; their strength, speed, eyesight, teeth, horns or teeth for fighting or tearing flesh to get food are all used by them in one way or another.

The Mind is the Guiding Force in Life

The mind is the guiding force in life, and physiology plays a prominent part. It is that hypothesis that scientific palm reading began. A leading factor is that health affects temperament and character. There is so much information in the hand; when you realize how logical and rational hand reading is, it can’t be anything but scientific.

The Shape of the Hand and the Mounts

The shape of the hand serves behind the science of palm reading (chirognomy). It starts with the mounts located at the base of the fingers and the sides of the hand. We can identify the personality of someone by correctly evaluating the various combinations. See my article on hand shapes. Other elements add to an understanding of the science, like how we carry our hand when walking, the texture of the skin, consistency of the hand, colour, nails, and even hair on the hands.

Our Health Patterns are Affected Mainly by Our Personalities

Similar to how our genes influence eye colour, our chromosomal structure dictates the shape of our hands. We know that our health patterns are affected mainly by our personalities, which are also represented in our hands. Our hands are live registers that keep track of all information about who we are, how we think and act, how we work, love, and interact with others, and our goals, aspirations, and driving forces.

Research has demonstrated that, despite environmental influences, some illnesses are more likely to affect certain people. There is also little question that our hands and our health are related. For centuries, doctors have frequently checked their patients’ hands for some symptoms that will support their diagnosis of a sickness, in addition to measuring their pulse. The science behind palm reading has evolved due to its use in aid to diagnoses of mental, behavioural and health conditions.

The Connection Between the Mind and Our Hands

More than any other area of our anatomy, the palms of our hands are densely packed with nerve endings. They function as excellent registers for biological signals and neurological responses. Furthermore, recent scientific studies have shown a connection between atypical skin or fingerprint markings and genetic or congenital problems. This connection is now well acknowledged and could be very helpful for genetic counselling and general medical diagnostics.

Dermatoglyphics

Though now used by modern hand readers, dermatoglyphics is unrelated to palmistry. Cytogenetic laboratories accept and apply the science of dermatoglyphics. It has been a standard diagnostic procedure in many major hospitals for over half a century. This topic, its application in the behavioural sciences, and its data sources now go beyond fingerprints to include the morphology and makeup of the entire hand. In therapy, hand reading assures an extra factor that can convert a learned and sterile practice into a fundamental, functional, exciting method.
