Palmistry Explained

In a message on my front page I wrote:
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.

To continue:
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 as well as objective 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.

(This post is to explain to readers the science behind the Art of Palmistry. And I said "Art" because the practice of palmistry is an art. 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.)

So this is where you are since so long :) :) was wondering where has nita disappeared :) Palmistry is fascinating. Happy reading palms :) :)

Nita said...

Actually I had disappeared to Europe. I was doing this in conjunction with work on my other blog. :)

Sudhir said...

This is a good way of letting people know what palmistry is all about

Destination Infinity said...

Interesting. 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...

Destination Infinity

Nita said...

Hi Sudhir. Yeah, thats one of the things I want to do.

Destination 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

Fibro Viv said...

Hello,

I 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:)

Nita said...

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.

Dear Nita,

With 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!!

Nita said...

Aniruddh, I am happy to take up your challenge, as you have been very polite.
Well, 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,
CAN 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?

Nita said...

Anonymous, I can explain why but I believe in the life force.
As 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.

SHRIRAM DESHPANDE said...

R/NITA,
NOT 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.

Nita said...

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.

Hello 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.

I 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?

Nita said...

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.

There 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.
