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.)
