Palmistry is not a mystical thing
That palmistry cannot foretell the future with certainty is not a disqualification of palmistry. It is in fact its qualification. Because, if our future was pre-determined, what is the point of palmistry or any other such study? It is precisely because we can change our future that we get our hands read. To know our weaknesses and strengths and to see where the obstacles lie.
A doctor sees the physical symptoms to arrive at conclusions, a palmist looks at the lines in the hand to do so. The doctor studies the lifestyle of the patient and asks him to change it if it's necessary and also gives medications to improve the life of the patient. Palmistry does not give you any pill. The palmistry pill is one's motivation and desire to change. Remember, your
character is your destiny and even a slight change in circumstances do not change one's future. But a bad habit or new way of life can change one's life for the worse or for the better.
Palmistry is not a superstitious or mystical or mysterious thing. The lines on the palm are simply a reflection of the brain. Our brain is not static, and therefore nor is our future. From studying the palm, the palmist can make certain deductions of the personality, temperament and character of the person. From this he can arrive at some idea of the lifestyle of the person, sometimes with the person’s help, and discuss the causes of a certain problem which may seem imminent.
The beauty of palmistry is that the brain is always is in the know before the body, as the lines reflect the subconscious as well. We may deny certain things in our behavior or changes in our body, but the subconscious mind always knows and therefore the palm reveals thoughts and events much earlier, well in time for the person to rectify the situation.
Let me explain this a little. Almost every one of us gets "feelings" about certain happenings, and some of these feelings turn out to be wrong. This is because our conscious mind cannot always make sense of what our subconscious is feeling and mixes up genuine intuition (which comes from our subconscious) with subjective and wishful thinking. Palmistry helps here.
Lines and hands can change
If we remove the cause of a problem, the line showing the problem disappears. A line can disappear or appear even in one day, though usually it can take a few weeks or months. Sometimes when the change is gradual, it takes longer.
If you observe the lines on your hand diligently for months, you will see certain changes. There have been instances where even the shape of the hand and fingers have changed. This usually denotes a significant change in the character of the person due to circumstances.
Note: Palmistry is based on scientific principles, but hand reading is and Art. This is because the same line or sign on two different hands means two different things. More important, no one sign or line can be important enough to tell you about the person's character or future. Each line or sign has to be read in combination, always.

Palmistry Myths and Misconceptions and how palmistry can help you lead a better life Don't be afraid of Palmistry:
Palmistry frightens people because they feel that a certain thing is fated to happen. But when we go to a doctor with high cholesterol or other symptoms, are we frightened even though we know what could probably happen if we continue a certain way of life? If we can go to a doctor without being afraid, we can certainly go to a palmist...because we know that nothing is "fated" to happen. It's all in our own hands.
A palmist also gives you a diagnosis and tells you of certain trends in your life as well as the probability of a certain event happening...if a certain lifestyle and behavior is continued. Your character is your destiny. Your destiny is not dependent on chance but on yourself.
If we change, our lines change and with it our future. And just as no doctor can predict with certainty that a heart attack will happen, a palmist cannot foretell the future with any certainty.

So this is where you are since so long :) :) was wondering where has nita disappeared :) Palmistry is fascinating. Happy reading palms :) :)
ReplyDeleteActually I had disappeared to Europe. I was doing this in conjunction with work on my other blog. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is a good way of letting people know what palmistry is all about
ReplyDeleteInteresting. I thought palmistry was about predicting future events! It is more in the lines of character analysis I guess... It is surprising to note that lines can change! Anyways all the best with your new blog...
ReplyDeleteDestination Infinity
Hi Sudhir. Yeah, thats one of the things I want to do.
ReplyDeleteDestination Infinity, nice to see you here. I think most people think of palmistry as some sort of fortune telling. And when one thinks that our characters and personality can change, then its not surprising to know that our lines can change
Hello,
ReplyDeleteI like your blog and find it very interesting. I did not know that lines can change. I am very interested in Palmistry. Thanks for sharing:)
Hi and welcome to my blog Viv. I agree with you there! Palmistry is absolutely fascinating and it always pains me when someone rejects it out of hand. And lines change just as we change. The more you change, the more the lines change. The hand is you and it is there to tell you everything about yourself. What matters is the interpretation.
ReplyDeleteDear Nita,
ReplyDeleteWith all due respect to your vast experience of 30 years studying this science, you have not mentioned actually how or why these lines form except saying that they're related to the brain(isn't our whole body related to it? Then why can't you read, say, my tongue and offer me your insights?). Exactly what factors lead to changing of these lines? Have you ever gone beyond the pretext of the "brain effect"? Under what circumstances, do these lines change? Exactly what is the dark pigment of cells which makes these lines stand out?
I have an explaination. The lines appeared where they are just so that they could help the early man achieve the grip he needed to hold the weapons during hunting or when he needed to hold something. These lines increased the friction and helped in the same.
The lines serve no other purpose except maybe provide employment to palmists!!!
I make my own future and not line can tell what is it going to be.
Take this challenge and tell your humble readers things that you expect these great men or women would do or would happen with them by your palm sciences. What you've written is very general stuff which everybody knows about them. Defend your career/industry with this challenge!!
Aniruddh, I am happy to take up your challenge, as you have been very polite.
ReplyDeleteWell, firstly the maximum nerves are in the hand and this has some relation to the lines forming on the palm. However if I knew exactly WHY it would be very easy to answer the question. What I do know is how palmistry evolved. Early palmists saw that some signs on the hand led to certain readings and when they saw these signs repeatedly on hands it was taken to be a sign which meant something. Palmistry was developed thousands of years ago by the ancients because of actual cases, and it has taken thousands of years for it to develop to what it is today.
Also, the future is in your own control. I think that is very clear from my writings on this website. Lines can change and so can the shape of one's hand and fingers. As you change the lines change. Any palmist which tells you of a fixed future is a fraud. Unfortunately there are more frauds in this profession than genuine palmists and that is why palmistry has got a bad name. As mentioned in one of my articles on this blog, signs have to be read in combination with each other. Just like a doctor takes several things into consideration before making a diagnosis. It is very difficult and takes years of practice.
As to why the lines should show some future trends it is very simple. Our subconscious mind knows many things which are conscious mind does not want to acknowledge or admit. That is reflected on the hand. If a certain person has some bad habit he will know that it is going to lead to some disaster, although he may not want to think of it. His subconscious mind will know and it will show on this hand. If this habit changes, his lines will change.
You say I have written some general stuff. Do you have any idea how difficult it is to read the hand of someone whose lines one can hardly see from public photographs? I spend hours and hours on each hand so that no mistake is made. I have read hands of people who I barely know. However it is not possible for me to give exactly how I reached the conclusions as I am writing a book. I cannot give away my knowledge for free. I have worked very hard for it.
If you doubt me you can send your hand for a reading and I can tell you about yourself. And if you don't want to know about future trends I won't mention them. The price is lower for just a character reading and I can give you a discount. I cannot do this for free because it takes several hours to read one hand, at least for me. I cannot take a hand and read it in a few minutes as many frauds do. I need photographs which I study over a certain length of time.
It is also quite exhausting as it means going into the mind of the person. I take this work very seriously Anirudh and believe in it implicitly. That is because I have seen it borne out on the hands of people I know personally, over many years. Whether it is childhood and college friends or relatives.
Anyway, if you have any more questions, you are welcome to ask.
HI NITA,
ReplyDeleteCAN U EXPLAIN HOW LINES ARE FORMED?THEIR STARTING POINT SUCH AS HEART LINE START FROM MOUNT OF JUPITER OR MURCURY? WHY HEAD LINE GOES TO MARS?
STARTING POINT OF LINE IS THICK OR THIN?CAN FATE LINE START FROM MOUNT OF SANI?HOW LIFE CURRENT ENTERS IN BODY?LIFE LINE STARTS FROM JUPITER+MARS OR FROM WRIST TO JUPITER+MARS?HOW ABOUT INDIAN PALMISTRY?
Anonymous, I can explain why but I believe in the life force.
ReplyDeleteAs for the line being thick or thin, it has a meaning.
Fate Line starts from the bottom and ends on the mount of saturn, or should end there.
A lot of people talk of eastern palmistry, indian palmistry and western palmistry. I don't care for these labels. I just do the palmistry I believe in.
R/NITA,
ReplyDeleteNOT MENTIONED STARTING POINT OF LINES.NOR WHY THE MOUNTS ARE THEIR IN THAT CERTAIN POSITION.
WHEN WE KNOW HOW LINES ARE FORMED THEN ONLY WE CAN THINK FOR CHANGE IN LINES.ORIGION OF PLAMISTRY IS IN INDIA.OUR GREAT RISHI FOUND IT IN TRANCE.THEN ONLY PLAMISTRY SPREADS TO ALL WORLD.AND TODAY ONLY COMMERCIAL PALMISTRY IS PRESENT.WHICH IS NOTHING TO DO WITH RELIGION,SOUL,ATMA.PURPOSE TO COME TO THIS WORLD,WHY WE ARE WE & HAVE SPECIFIC HANDS & LINES,MOUNTS WE DONOT CONSIDER ALL OF THIS.
This post does not explain the whole of palmistry. Also, the mounts are in that position because of the nature of the person. I am not a hundred percent sure HOW lines are formed. I will be exploring this in my book. But to me it is one of the mysteries of the world. Not all mysteries have been solved.
ReplyDeleteHello Nita, I read you article on Palmistry. You mentioned that your future can not be told with certainity. How come that guy Chiro the famous palmist did for many people. How come so many people mentioned that he predicted with 100% accuracy. He also said that to read a females hand it should be her left hand and for males it should be right.
ReplyDeleteI really want to get my palm read one day, but it is very difficult to find someone who is a expert. When it comes to future trends, what can you say when you read someones hand?
Anonymous, The future told on the basis of palmistry will come true if the person does not make any changes in his/her life. We have to see how many people are willing to change. Very few people even acknowledge that they need to change. These people believe in destiny and well, in their case their destiny will be fulfilled.
ReplyDeleteThere are some famous people whose hands I have analysed who have changed their destiny. It is not easy because it means developing qualities which have not been inherited.
I do not follow Cheiro. I also believe he had strong intuition and not all that he predicted was from the study of palmistry.
It is a good idea to get your palm read, and choosing a palmist is not easy. It is far more difficult than choosing a doctor as quite a few palmists are not experts. You have to be very careful when you choose a palmist.
The future trends that can be seen from the hand are relationships, obstacles in career, bad periods, good periods, career satisfaction, whether ambitions will be achieved, whether the person will be content with the amount of money he has and so on. Major events of the past can also be seen. And once armed with your character analysis it is possible for you to make the necessary changes to improve your future. You can change your future if you know how.
Hi neeta... must say your blog is really an eye-opener.... i have something really specific in my mind that i need to ask you.. that is can palmistry exactly tell the future career prospects and whether one is pursuing the right career path... i will be glad if u can answer.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous, ofcourse palmistry can tell whether one is pursuing the right career path. In fact palmistry does that very accurately indeed. And yes future career prospects can be told but the person can make changes in his life and the future can change. It depends on whether he makes a serious change either in his life or personality.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your reply.....
ReplyDeleteCan u please tell me what are the hand traits of a successful politician... any specific lines or marks....
Anonymous, a successful politician is not necessary a good politician. There are people who have inherited their political career. These people will be successful but their hand will be different from someone who made it on his/her own. Also, some political systems are such (for eg. India) where corrupt and inept people can rise to the top in politics. A clean and honest person may not make it although he may have other skills. Therefore it is not possible to talk about traits that successful politicians have. However one can talk about certain temperaments that are suited to politics. Take Rajiv Gandhi. He was temperamentally unsuited to politics as he was an inherently shy person. There are greater chances of success when one is temperamentally suited to a profession as one is happy doing it. Rajiv Gandhi would never have made it if he was not a Gandhi. So the right career path is one which is suited to one's personality. Whether one succeeds or not depends on one's intelligence, will power etc, traits which are needed for success in general.
ReplyDeleteHi nita,
ReplyDeleteyou said that the future cannot be told correctly and can change if one needs. But u know everyone is trying to change their lifestyle when it needs. But it is hard to change, because we all have our own character and it is fixed. In some cases great changes are happening, but it is not by ourselves. Every thing is already fixed. But no one can tell 100% accurately.whether it is palmistry or astrology everything has its own limitations. no one tell when he will die. So just keep it to god do your duty. see what is happening.
ofcourse it is hard to change. It requires will power, especially when the thing one is trying to change is major. Some people never change and they have a fixed destiny. They expect it and they get it.
ReplyDeletethank you !i had a good time... now i know what to say during my speech!
ReplyDeleteMy palm was read 12 years ago and it was right on. I was just married for 6 months. The reader said I would have 2 kids, a boy and then a girl. She said that the girl would be with a different man as he was my soulmate, NOT my current husband. Well, it upset me and I chose to ignore it. 12 years later, I have a boy from my first husband and a 1 year old girl from my new husband. We weren't wanting anymore kids as he has 4 boys from a previous marriage and was using birth control. Here she is though. Today, my sons speech therapist offered to do a reading. She's in her 50's and have been doing them her entire life. Well, my life line is kind of short and branches off in thin lines. My left hand also has a short life line. So she tells me I will die in my 50's or early 60's of a serious disease. I'm 38!!! That's not many years ahead. I don't drink or smoke. I'm not over weight. Don't eat unhealthy. How do I change this?? I'm so worried.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all let me assure you that it is impossible for any handreader to predict how many children a person will have leave alone the gender of the child! It's amazing how gullible people fall for this. It was just a guess as many people do have a boy and a girl. When it comes to your second marriage, well, long term relationships can be seen with greater accuracy (although not in all hands) and when the handreader saw another relationship, he probably used his intuition. Let me repeat, the number of children one has or their gender cannot be told from the hand. Any handreader who says he can do it is a fraud.
ReplyDeleteWhen it comes life lines I have seen many hands where the person lives well past beyond the life line and also cases where the person has passed away and the life line continues well past that point. The life line does NOT reveal the length of life. If any handreader has said this to you then she is a fraud. Keep away from such people who are a shame to the handreading community.
It is very difficult to see death from the hand and dangers to one's life are often seen on the heart or head lines or the mercury line and ofcourse on the life line. But not actual death.
Sometimes a palmist who says these things plants a seed in the client's mind and it can happen that this affects the person and creates ill-health. Our mind plays an important part in it.
You said how can I change the time of death? Well, as I said death cannot be predicted with accuracy from the hand. It can NEVER be foretold by looking at the length of the life line. However dangers to one's health can be seen and the causes seen in the other lines. Therefore it becomes fairly simple to fix it. So take my advise, continue to lead a healthy and safe life and check for any genetic diseases. Have regular health check-ups. I would advise this to anyone even without seeing his or her palm. It is the way to be healthy and safe.
all i can say is u r doing a grt job. keep it up. keep it up . cheers.
ReplyDeletemy marriage line ends in a fork, alot of people say that means unhappy marraige or divorce.
ReplyDeleteit has bugged me all my life and I'm not sure what i can do to change it..
For one thing, the "marriage" lines are the most unreliable indicators of relationships on the hand so whatever anyone told you, it's not true. These lines can be used as confirmatory signs only. Relationships are shown by influence lines on the mount of venus and also by lines joining the fate line from the moon mount. Not everyone's hands show relationships marked this way but that does not mean that they will not have the relationships.
ReplyDeleteA fork on the marriage line (taking the worst possible meaning) means that the person you marry or have a long-term relationship with will be different temperamentally.
Deep vertical bars cutting the marriage line are more worrying than a simple fork. And while these deep vertical bars which overshadow the marriage lines do show disturbances in the relationship, they do not necessarily mean divorce or separation because this sign has to be confirmed elsewhere in the hand. As I said these "marriage" lines are not reliable indicators.
And then remember that legal separation, legal divorce, marriage ceremonies etc are not shown on the hand at all. These are man-made and are not shown on the hand. Relationships can be shown, good, bad, or indifferent.
Besides I know a close friend of mine with a large fork on her "marriage" line when she was 25 and 20 years later this fork is gone! :)
What this means is that "fate" does not depend on your lines. It depends on YOU. Choose a partner wisely, become aware of your own faults, do not have high expectations, be loyal to your partner, and adjust in the marriage, and you are bound to have a happy married life.
Thank you very very much Nita! I've been with my boyfriend more more than eight years, and we r still very much in love and planning to get marry next year. However, all these years we really can't resolve the country we want to settle down in,because our family live in two different countries. He has given in and willing to stay in the country I want, but I always fear this is the reason why I have a fork and not sure whether we could ever overcome this. Not sure where this will lead, but we will definitely work hard together to make it work. Sorry to bored you with my love story.. Thanks heaps
ReplyDeleteIt would be interesting to see whether his hand shows the fork too. At times the fork is shown only one hand, not the other's.
ReplyDeleteYes. Both of us has one hand with a fork. The other doesn't. Does that say something?
ReplyDeleteIt depends on which hand. The right active hand (the one with which you write) or the left passive. If it is on the passive, forget about it. I have assumed so far that the fork you talk about is on the active hand.
ReplyDeleteThe reason I asked is that at times this feeling of a "difference" of temperament/ideas or values is a feeling that only one party feels. If it is on both the hands, it means that both feel it. That's all it means. As I said before it does not mean divorce or separation, whether it on one partner's hand or both.
Thanks again Nita. Hope you have a wonderful day! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Nita,
ReplyDeleteI went to a palm reader on a whim to see what it was like. She said I had an unusual hand (she looked at my dominant hand) and frankly seemed spooked when she looked at it. Since my father died young, I had the feeling that she was witholding information.
I went to the Internet and saw that the asterisk that I had at the end of the line going to my middle finger supposedly predicts a tragic death. I stopped looking up stuff after seeing this--especially since I have several other asterisks. I also have an asterisk directly under each of my other three fingers, but not the thumb. Moreover, there is an asterisk that is on a line that goes to my ring finger as well as an asterisk that is vertically below my ring finger and horizontally lined up with the base of my thumb. I also have another asterisk between what the palmist told me was my heart and my headline that initiates from a line that curves and goes directly to my ring finger (this is the line that has that other asterisk on it). There is also a small circle right by the asterisk directly under my ring finger. The palmist was interested in this circle, but didn't say much about it, but her body language, again, was concerning.
Is there a possibility from your experience that all of this stuff means early death or can it be something else?
Thanks,
Concerned
Hi Nita,
ReplyDeleteI tried to send something to you, but don't know if you got it. I am going to try again...
I went to a palmist on a whim and she was very vague. She looked almost shocked when she looked at my palm (on my dominant hand). She mentioned an asterisk on the line going to my middle finger and a small circle just under my ring finger and said they were unusual. I went to the Internet and saw that an asterisk at the end of the line going to the middle finger meant a violent death. At that point I stopped looking stuff up!
Even more concerning is the fact that i have several more of these asterisks. I have one directly under my ring and index fingers. I have one just to the side of the base of my thumb. I also have one that starts with an asterisk below the pinky (between the head and heart lines) and curves to the ring finger ( with a second asterisk on this line just under the ring finger). Finally, I have an asterisk that is way below my ring finger that is horizontally lined up with the base of the thumb.
My father died young. Is my hand predicting the same fate for me?
Worried
Dear worried and concerned, I think perhaps by asterisks you mean stars. Stars are relevant if clearly marked and not formed by the main lines. They are not always an unfavourable sign and basically signify intensity of some sort. I think you should go through a post of mine here:
ReplyDeletehttp://palmistryforyou.com/2012/02/can-palmistry-predict-future-events.html
and this will explain to you whether it is possible to predict future events. As you will realise after reading the post, it is quite impossible to predict anything with certainty.
To come to the conclusion that you will have a tragic end to your life because your father did is not at all logical. If such an event is by some chance marked on your hand, you can change it. I am not sure what kind of trauma you suffered when your father's death, but I suggest you see a counselor to sort out any issues with the past. At times a tragic event in one's past can interfere with a person's will to live and can create anxieties which can in turn lead to tragedy. So please get it out of your mind that anything is "fated." That is the first thing. If you wish you can send me your hand photo. I will not charge you, just tell you if I see anything significant.
My great granny was a well known palmist, I would love to follow in her footsteps but beyond the 3 main lines I struggle to learn. Every palm I see is so different, my mind goes blank and I mumble vague things. Is there any way I can get my act together?
ReplyDeleteDear Anonymous. Choose a profession where your mind does not go blank.
ReplyDeleteHello Nita,
ReplyDeleteIt would be interesting for you to adopt a theory as to where the lines in the palm come from. Once there is more certainty there, then this blog about the ability to change becomes somewhat more tangible.
Dear Anonymous, yes, people assume the lines to be something mysterious and mystical and want to know where they come from. This questions is asked very often. Unfortunately Cheiro (who I think is the most read author on palmistry) propagated some theory about some "force" which entered the tips of the fingers. That is not true, but has given rise to the theory of some mysterious force creating the lines.
ReplyDeleteThe truth is that there is no mystery at all. The lines are a reflection of our brain. They are formed by our brain. The same way our other body parts are formed. The lines on the hand are a part of our body. Now why they are formed, why they are there is another matter. But if we look at it from a non-mystical point of view, the answer becomes clear. The lines on the hand serve a purpose. They are a guide to us humans. Just like our fingers and toes serve a purpose so do the lines. Only highly evolved creatures like humans have these lines, and we are the only ones who have a highly advanced brain. So you see, the brain is the doer of these lines. The human brain.
