THE LIFE LINE

The life line is one of the most important lines in the palm, revealing among other things, your physical constitution and your current state of health.  The life line originates at a point above the thumb between the Mars and Jupiter mounts (see section on Mounts) and curves downwards following the outer edges of both mounts encircling the ball of the thumb. The Life line basically represents the quality of life in terms of physical well being. 

THE HEAD LINE

The Head line represents the mental constitution, so that energy running through this line reveals the way a person things, his brain power, concentration and memory, intellect and reasoning ability.

THE HEART LINE

When considering the feelings and emotions, the line to look for is the Heart Line.  This line crosses the palm below the fingers, starting on the edge of the palm below the little finger and crossing the palm to end anywhere beneath any of the other fingers. The heart line can be straight, or it can curve smoothly or deeply upwards. 

THE FATE LINE

The line running from the base of the palm up towards the Saturn (middle) finger has been named the Saturn line, the line of fate or the line of Destiny. Whichever name is used, it will always be found in the middle of the palm pointing in the direction of Saturn. 

THE APOLLO LINE

The Apollo line, also named the Sun line, may originate from any point in the palm, heading towards the Apollo Mount. This line is not often found in it’s true form, that is, running from the palmar base to the Apollo mount, but is more often found starting higher up the palm, sometimes only appearing on the actual Apollo mount itself. In many hands the line is missing completely. 

TRAVEL LINES

When someone asks me if they are likely to travel, my first reply is likely to be ‘Do you want to travel? The very fact the question has been asked hints that the person may have already considered travel, or is keen to travel and broaden their horizons.

MARRIAGE LINES

When looking into your own hands, remember that palmists look for many signs within the hands, gradually building up clues about the person and his life. A palmist will never, ever, make a statement by looking at one sign standing alone. It is also important to remember that marriage is a contract made on paper and as such, is not recognised by the hands!

CHILDREN'S LINE

Palmists are divided in their view about the accuracy of child lines within the palms. Some palmists insist that child lines have always proved to be accurate, while others will say they have not found them to be sufficiently accurate to warrant mentioning them.
