The hand reading of Deepika Padukone

Deepika Padukone has apparently inherited her father's genes. (I said apparently because I have not seen her father's hands, who was a globally successful badminton player.) Both her hands show physical capacity and sporting ability. When it comes to her temperament, she is passionate and serious. The hand also shows that it belongs to a strong and ambitious person but someone who tends to see things in a subjective way, from her own point of view. 

Deepika has a long hand and a long, large palm and relatively short fingers with rounded tips, and the second and third phalanges are good. The most prominent mounts on Deepika’s

Mike Tyson's hand reading

In the case of Mike Tyson, and indeed in the case of many famous people, the passive and active hands differ significantly, and this reveals that the early circumstances faced by these people were not exactly smooth, resulting in changed personalities and values. There were challenges, battles to be won, and mental upheavals, and as a result, there was a change in the psyche.

While Tyson's hand shape and strength of the various mounts are approximately the same on both hands, there is an important difference in the length of the Apollo (ring) finger. All the Mars mounts are well developed on both hands, and this in combination with the shape of his hand reveals Tyson to be contentious, ambitious, competitive, and

Why Robert Mugabe is who he is

Robert Mugabe, the current President of Zimbabwe, is known to be a dictator who wants to hang on to power at all costs and has brought Zimbabwe to economic ruin. What is the reason behind his seemingly irrational behaviour that is evident in his personality? His hand explains it all too clearly.

Some aspects of his hand which stand out are the long rectangular palm, wavy, uneven lines on his palm, a broken, high-set headline set distinctly apart from the lifeline, a weak Jupiter (index finger), a long supple thumb – the type of hand which can send a chill up one’s spine! This combination

The difference between Indira Gandhi and Margaret Thatcher

Indira Gandhi
Indira Gandhi was called India's Iron Lady by none other than her British counterpart, Margaret Thatcher, who was known as Britain's Iron Lady! The two strong personalities bonded when they met, have been compared to each other and were believed to share some similarities.

These two ladies were quite different, however, with distinctly different characters. They were almost as dissimilar as their politics. That is what their hands tells us. 

Margaret Thatcher’s hand shows her to be bold, arrogant, aggressive and stubborn. Indira Gandhi had a similar image, but oddly enough her hand does not bear it out.

Paulo Coelho's hand reading

Paulo Coelho pic
Paulo Coelho is famous all over the world for his novel – The Alchemist. He has 28 other books to his credit. He was also committed to an insane asylum by his parents but later managed to get out. Some people consider him their spiritual guru. One would think he is quite an intriguing personality, complex in fact!

His hands show a heavy development of mounts, short, straight, plump and flexible fingers with square tips, a very large thumb with a well-developed and supple top phalange, and good knots on the back of the hands. The thumb is also thick. The mounts of his hands which are the most developed are the Venus, Jupiter and Moon mounts. These mounts are excessively developed. The Jupiter (index) finger appears to be pointed. Knots are developed heavily.

Unfortunately, not much of the headline on his hand is visible and therefore one has to rely solely on the shape of the hands and fingers to get a glimpse into his personality. It was disappointing to

Li Keqiang the Chinese Premier

Li Keqiang's hand reveals extraordinary leadership ability; the ability to handle people and get the most out of them. His hand also shows an ambitious disposition and immense self-confidence as well as the ability to lead others. It shows the capability to rule and manage people without appearing to be a tyrant.  Of course, this can be said with confidence not just by looking at one sign, but because overall, his hand is good. 

Brilliant leadership cannot be determined by just one sign on the hand. A hand with chained lines or a short thumb will negate any good effects of other signs. A leader needs to have a clear mind backed by a strong, determined and goal-oriented personality which can connect with others.

The shape of Li Keqiang’s hand is a good one.

Arvind Kejriwal's hand reading

It's not surprising that Arvind Kejriwal from AAP (Aam Aadmi Party) and Anna Hazare, the social activist, did not see eye to eye. Their hands show that both of them are headstrong but that is where the similarity between them ends.

Kejriwal's hands show an energetic, strong, intellectual, balanced and focused personality. It also shows a fine calculative mind, even if a little headstrong, and an independent, original mindset. People skills exist side by side with

Your hand lines are a reflection of you; not vice versa

Your future depends on who you are and how you behave. Not on the lines or the signs of your hand. Lines do not control you or your future. You do. The lines are formed according to how you think. The hand is a reflection of your mind, not vice versa.

Despite writing about this several times I get people who misinterpret this to mean that their fate hinges on the lines of their hand. They believe that if their hand lines are good they are lucky, and if the lines are bad it's bad luck.

An anxious businessman wanted to know if he was going to bring "financial ruin" on himself because of

Cristina Fernández President of Argentina

The reasons for Cristina Fernandez’s popularity are not far to seek

although her hands do not show her to be a people-friendly personality or possessing the warm empathetic persona that some politicians typically have. In fact, her hands show her to rather secretive, and a very private person. Even if she is compassionate, her hands do not show her to be

Denzel Washington is an uncomplicated guy

What struck me most about Denzel Washington’s hands was the difference in the Headline in the left passive and right active hands. The Headline is better on the right hand, and this by itself shows that this man is self-made. Denzel did not inherit the level of focus, determination and self-control that is seen in the personality he has today. He has developed these personality characteristics. Also to be noted is the wider gap between his Head and Lifelines on the right active hand. This enhances the quality of

Sreesanth's folly

It is believed that Sreesanth the cricketer succumbed to temptation when he fell prey to bookies. That he was a "weak" personality. The weakness of character appears to be a widely held belief, mainly because of his known outbursts on the cricket field.

Actually, Sreesanth's hand reveals a far more complex mindset. He has a

Stars, Crosses, Symbols and Superstition in hand reading

Hand reading is not about superstition, but the shadow of superstition has stuck to hand and palm reading...well, at least to some extent. As a result, hand readers and palmists are seen as some sort of psychics or maybe even charlatans. Those who believe expect them to unravel the mystery of signs and symbols and tell the future with accuracy. Often some palmists oblige and either predict something dire for a sensationalist effect or are effusive with their praise and good tidings of the future. Gullible believers fall prey to this and I often get emails from confused and disturbed people asking whether a particular prediction will really come true. The predictions that people are given are about death, divorce, accidents, children dying, or some other drastic and unfortunate event. Needless to say, it's lies which have been dished out to them. 

Death and hand reading is a post which is a must-read for anyone who believes that the hand can predict death.

It's a commonly held belief that signs, shapes and symbols on the palm reveal significant events in the future, events which cannot be avoided. Whether it is triangles, circles, tridents or fish or animal signs, they are supposed to have significance. 

They don't. To begin with, shapes of animals or objects or even shapes like circles or triangles

Why is Leonardo DiCaprio unmarried?

Many Hollywood stars marry once or twice, if not thrice. However, Leonardo DiCaprio is a known player and doesn't show any signs of getting married. He doesn't seem to want to marry. What makes him different from his famous colleagues in Hollywood? Reading his hand was the nearest I could get to an answer.

The dominant personality traits shown by his hand is an enjoyment of solitude, high sensitivity and imagination that can border on the morbid. His hand also shows moodiness, with a certain amount of self-centeredness and restlessness. 

There are other reasons why Leonardo could be a commitment-phobe.

Pakistan's Imran Khan

Imran Khan, known to the world as a cricketer, philanthropist, and politician, is a celebrity of sorts. But who really is Imran Khan, the person? What is his character like?

Imran enjoys fame and name, and that is probably why he is interested in politics. There is nothing wrong with that type of motivation. Unless people enjoy being in the public eye, they won't turn to politics. Either it's idealism that attracts a person to politics or it is a desire for fame or both. When it comes to organisational ability and intellect, he is average, although

The long ring fingers of Sharad and Ajit Pawar

It is common to see similar hand characteristics in parents and children, and at times even between grandchildren, nephews and nieces. Fingerprints can also be of similar shapes although actual details are different. This similarity is reflected in the personality traits which are often shared by family members.

It was interesting to note a similarity in the hands of Sharad Pawar and his nephew Ajit Pawar (elder brother’s son). This similarity lies in the formation of their Jupiter and Apollo fingers (index and ring fingers). In the hands of both these men, the Apollo or ring finger is longer than their Jupiter or index finger and it is nearer in length to the Saturn (middle) finger.

A comparison of the hands of Pope Francis and Pope Benedict XVI

Pope Graphic

The personality or Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio or Pope Francis  as revealed by his hands is significantly different from that of the previous pope (Pope Benedict XVI). The main differences oddly enough lie in the realm of their belief system. While Pope Benedict's hands show that he was an uncompromising believer, rigid in his beliefs, Pope Francis’s hands show him to be more

Sylvester Stallone's hand reading

Sylvester Stallone may well be a talented guy, and is neither manipulative nor selfish, but his personality (as shown by his hands) is that of a person who is passionate, emotionally volatile and impulsive and he can be difficult to live with. He has high energy levels and his hands tell a story of a person who likes to live his life to the fullest. Stallone's tendency to be unpredictable is accentuated as he thinks and acts quickly. His hands also show a very high physical sex drive and coupled with his impulsive nature, it would be difficult for him to be faithful to his partner. To counter such a passionate nature, one needs more self-control than the

Oscar Pistorius's hand reading

Few believe Paralympian Oscar Pistorius’s claim that he shot his girlfriend Reeva by mistake; certainly not the police. What is the truth? Did Oscar Pistorius deliberately kill his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp? Can Palmistry really shed light on this?

The hand can guide us to some extent. It may not be able to tell if a person has actually committed a crime, but it can tell us whether a person is capable of it. The hand reveals the inner workings of the mind, and it is also possible to surmise from the hand whether a person is likely to commit a crime of passion or a cold-blooded, premeditated one.

Pistorius's hand has

Hand Reading of Angela Merkel Chancellor of Germany

Angela Merkel portrait
Angela Merkel's hand is not an extraordinary one, but she is the
Chancellor of Germany, now in her second term. Her success is not dramatically imprinted on her hand but it does show strong willpower, the ability to control others, and determination. She can be a little brusque, however, quite direct. Her hand shows a no-nonsense type of personality and perhaps that is why she is called the "Iron Lady" by some and has been compared to Margaret Thatcher, Britain's ex-Prime Minister. However, Merkel is not really an "Iron Lady", and is quite different from her namesake – Margaret Thatcher.

Couple Compatibility in Hand Reading

Synastry in Astrology is the art of matching two horoscopes for the purpose of marriage. It is a popular method for those who believe in Astrology. A reader asked me whether there was a similar method in palmistry/hand reading.

There isn't an official name for matching couples through hand-reading, but it can be used for matching couples, even if it is a more complex method. The advantage of palmistry is that hand and fingerprint reading goes beyond superficial personality characteristics and into the in-depth psyche of a person, bringing out the person's hidden

Ben Affleck's Hand Reading

Ben Affleck's personality must be a very pleasant one because he has a beautifully shaped hand, with long slim fingers, some of them waisted, and a very broad palm, one of the largest I have seen and the fingers are medium-length, if not long. The mounts are not too heavily developed, and the mounts which are well developed are Venus and the Mount of Moon. The thumb is also waisted, a little low-set and longer than normal. The lines on his palm are fine, the heart line long and straightish and the headline a little uneven and seems to be joined considerably with the lifeline. The Jupiter (index) finger seems a little short and the Mercury (pinky) finger a little long.

All of this points to a finely balanced, generous, unselfish, compassionate, and warm person with strength of character and it also shows,

Asaram Bapu's Hand Reading

Asaramji Bapu's hands tell us of a strong and wilful personality with a high level of alertness, tact, intuition and shrewdness. He would also possesses good judgement of people and he is action-orientated and quick as well. Is he a good Guru? Palmistry can have a few answers for us.
