Liz Cheney - Brave and ethical

Liz Cheney's ethical stance and standing up to principles will ensure that history sees her as a hero. She sacrificed her career to do this, not caving in even after getting death threats. What does this show about her character and how is it reflected on her hand?

Clearly, her actions show that Cheney is brave and ethical and these qualities are always evident on the hand.

Her hand is a good shape, squarish palm and longish fingers. The finger of Jupiter is low-set, but not short. The Apollo finger is prominent and the Mercury finger is of a good length and straight. Her thumb is of a good length too, and conic but with a strong first phalange. It’s likely to be low-set as well. 

She has long, fine lines and although these lines are a little lighter than they should be relative to the size and shape of her hand, the head and heart lines are balanced with each other. There aren’t too many lines on her hand either. The second phalanges of the Saturn (middle) and Apollo (ring) fingers are long. She has good Venus, Jupiter and Mars mounts. What is significant is that none of the mounts on her hand are over developed.

Liz Cheney's hand photos.

Her hand shows extraordinary, almost brilliant, clear and objective thinking. Intelligence and refinement shouts out from her hand. She can see the large picture and her analytical skills are formidable. Liz Cheney is a thinker, first and foremost, and would be very good in both communication and planning. Sometimes theory can get the better of her but this does not mean that she is not action-oriented. Liz has the ability to get things done.

Leadership qualities are also evident on her hand as is the ability to think outside herself. But yes, she is ambitious as well and wants the limelight. Like all politicians she seeks recognition, but not at the cost of her principles. She is not the kind to crawl under a rock but her refinement will prevent any crass tactics.

Liz Cheney is a fighter. The developed Mars mounts show that. She is not the kind of back down and cower.

All these qualities separate her from the average person. She may not be a genius but it’s surprising how few of us have the combination of qualities that she has. A clear mind, a clear conscience, straightforwardness, broad-mindedness and the ability to think of others. If all humans were like this, the world would be a better place.

Devendra Fadnavis or Eknath Shinde? The better man?

Who is the more capable and better person? Eknath Shinde, today the Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra (erstwhile CM) or Devendra Fadnavis, second-time Chief Minister? By capable I mean a person who will get things done and done well. By better I mean who is the better human being. Maybe both these politicians are equally capable and equally good in their character. The hand can shine a light on the truth.

Their right hands were studied as both men are right-handed, and it shows who they are today. This is not about the past, but the present.

Fadnavis has a normal sized hand, flexible, and his fingers and palm are balanced with each other. The Apollo (ring) finger is good, and although the Jupiter finger is not short as such, it’s low-set and dwarfed by the Saturn (middle) and Apollo fingers which lie adjacent. Fadnavis holds his rather large thumb close to the palm and the phalanges of the thumb are balanced with other. By this it means the top (first) phalange of the thumb is slightly shorter than the second phalange, which is normal. The tips of the fingers are mostly conic and the pinky finger sticks out from the others.

The head and life lines of Fadnavis are joined considerably and the lines, though medium length, are balanced with each other in strength. The third phalanges of the fingers are slightly plump, except for the Mercury (pinky) finger's third phalange. The second phalanges of the fingers are overall good.

Eknath Shinde's hand is quite different, the main difference being the shape of the hand. Shinde's hand is larger, less flexible and its firmer, and the palm broader. The fingers could possibly be a little shorter (relative to the palm) when compared with Fadnavis, but the difference is not significant. Eknath Shinde also has a low-set, flexible thumb which is a good length. All the fingers are conic. 

The heartline is longer and darker than the headline, and is also forked. The second phalanges of the fingers are not that good, but the first phalanges are long.

The hands of these men reveal to us that both are fairly idealistic, but Shinde is the more idealistic one. What enhances his idealism is that his heart tends to dominate the head. His hand also shows significant altruism and humanitarianism. He can inspire leadership and is willing to do a lot for his people, even if it does not benefit himself. It is always his people and his team which Shinde thinks about. He is action-oriented as well, but his priorities would be different. Eknath Shinde’s hand shows that he is helpful, the kind who would reach help others, even if he gets nothing out of it. In this respect his hand shows a different personality from that of Fadnavis, who would be more selfish. Shinde's hand also shows wisdom and seriousness, and maybe he's even something of an intellectual. One can say he is a fitting heir to carry on Balasaheb Thackeray's legacy.

Fadnavis is more objective in this thinking and is probably a better decision-maker. This means that he could well get more things done and in an effective manner. He has leadership qualities, no doubt. He is a strong leader, very ambitious, and seeks the limelight. Despite some insecurities in his personality, Fadnavis is an independent type, likely to do what he thinks is right. He is able to control others, persuade and hold sway. But he will keep his cards close to his chest and is less approachable than Shinde. 

Oddly, neither politician is machiavellian, as politicians are wont to be.

Cardi B - hand reading of a dashing rapper

Cardi B identifies as an Afro-Latina, and is a famous American rapper, considered as "one of the most successful female artists in contemporary music". She stands out not only because of her musical talent but also her flamboyant personality. Well, as much as appears to have a loud and confident persona, that is not who she is inside.

Marjorie Taylor Greene and Alex Jones – Conspiracy Theorists of a different kind

There are different types of conspiracy theorists. Some get riled up because they are boiling over with an overabundance of emotion, convinced that the conspiracies they spout are true. Any shred of doubt they might feel is crushed by their ego and so doubling down on their debunked conspiracies is not a big deal for them. Other kinds of conspiracy theorists simply lie to garner fame and attention. Their imagination helps them cook up crazy theory after crazy theory. Kooks or not, they get the notoriety they crave for.

Here's a brief look at the hands of two conspiracy theorists.

Sense of Humour - can your hand show it?

Comedian colourful illustration

Do comedians’ hands have anything in common at all? If they did, it would mean they have similar personalities … but seems unlikely, doesn't it, because there are all types of humour out there. And is there a sign on the hand which tells you that a person has a sense of humour?

I picked four world-famous comedians’ hands: Jimmy Fallon, Joe Rogan, Trevor Noah and Stephen Colbert. I have not seen any of their shows, except for a couple of Colbert's shows. All of these comics possess a sense of humour, obviously, but is that quality evident on the hand? We already know that there is no such thing as a blanket sense of humour as comedians have different styles.

JD Vance, Tulsi Gabbard and RFK Jr – reasons they aligned with Donald Trump

MAGA politicians on stage sihouette
AI generated image
A bunch of prominent people who never liked Donald Trump are now his best buddies. Why?

Eight years ago, JD Vance, the VP nominee for the Republican party, compared to Donald Trump to Hitler, but now JD has embraced him. Tulsi Gabbard, a politician from Hawaii, a Democrat turned Independent, now endorses Trump. Robert F Kennedy Jr, called Donald Trump “unhinged” not too long ago, but is now campaigning for him.

What motivates these characters? JD Vance has been accused of changing because of ambition and greed for power, Gabbard has been accused to going wherever the wind blows, wherever she garners the most attention, and RFK Jr., known to have extreme views, wants power as well. In a nutshell, they think that Donald Trump will help them get what they want. It seems too simple an explanation for such a radical change in outlook, and a rejection of the values they held dear. People are complicated, and only the hand can reveal people's inner secrets;secrets which quite possibly even those nearest and dearest to them may not know.

The hands of these three – JD, Gabbard and RFK – reveal that

Bang Chan's fingers are of medium length, with distinctly slim second phalanges. His Saturn (middle) finger seems a little short, not too much so. The Jupiter (index) finger appears to be dominant, as it is high-set and bent. Another distinguishable aspect of the fingers is that the first phalange of Mercury (pinky) finger is significantly long, although the other first phalanges of his fingers are good as well. The tips of the fingers are rounded, although the tip of the Mercury finger is more conic.

The lines on his palm are fine and long, and the unusual line is the

Rajnath Singh - Ordinary and yet not so ordinary

It’s always amazing when the hands of people who have risen to the top seem ordinary in so many ways. Ordinary in intellect and ordinary when it comes to true leadership, of the benevolent kind.

Rajnath Singh has good sized hands, large, rectangular palm and short fingers. The Mercury (little) finger is long, as dominant as the Apollo (ring) finger, and the thumb is fairly good and possibly a little stiff. It’s a good length and not set too low or too high, although it is held close to the hand. The Jupiter (index) finger is bent, and low-set which makes it look short. His heart and head lines are

Are all serial killers psychopaths?

Graphic serial killer
By 愚木混株 Cdd20 Pixabay
Do serial killers have traits in common? According to the FBI, while the motivations and methods of serial killers vary, most serial killers tend to be self-seeking, and use charm, manipulation, intimidation to satisfy their selfish desires. They exhibit sensation-seeking and predatory behavior, impulsivity, and a desire for control. 

Not all serial killers are psychopaths, however. The psychos tend to exhibit a total lack of empathy, lack of guilt or remorse, are out of touch with reality and often live in a fantasy world. If one examines the hands of serial killers, which of these characteristics would be evident? 

The hands of serial killers are mostly

John Mayer the Musician and Player

John Mayer with guitar
John Mayer, a world-famous singer, guitarist, and song-writer, is known not just for his work, but also his numerous love affairs. At forty-six, he is still a player. He insists that he wants to marry, so why doesn’t he?

His hands are large, but not over-large, considering his height, which is almost six feet three. What is remarkable is that his palm is very broad and the thumb quite low-set and long, with a slim second phalange and a strong top phalange. The long, low-set thumb may be ideal for his guitar playing, but such a thumb has a significant meaning, in palmistry. It indicates will power and determination, and leadership qualities, and that’s just for starters!

The Venus, Jupiter and Moon mounts are well developed, but yet, not over-developed. His fingers are a good length, the Mercury (pinky) finger being significantly long, with a conic tip. The other fingers are well balanced with each other in length, and the Saturn (middle) and Jupiter finger is possibly a little bent. The Jupiter (index) finger has a conic tip as well, while the other fingertips are rounded. The third phalanges of his Apollo (ring) and Jupiter fingers are a little thick. The lines on his hand are fairly well-marked, with the headline long and slightly sloping but not too sloping. The heart line is not clearly visible in public photos, but it does seem that it is not as darkly etched underneath the Jupiter finger.

These hand features paint us a picture of who John Mayer is and it

Bongbong Marcos – a better leader than his father?

Bongbong Marcos Philippines
Bongbong Marcos, is the son of the disgraced ex-President of the Philippines, Ferdinand Marcos, and his wife, Imelda Marcos. But today Bongbong Marcos is the elected the President of the Philippines. Do his hands tell us that he is the chip of the old block? 

Well, genes are genes, and one does tend to inherit a personality, just like one inherits one's physical features. Yet, each one of us is still a little different, as in the case with Bongbong Marcos. It was his bad luck that both his parents were in the eye of the storm, and neither of them impressive characters. The interesting thing about parental genes is that unless the child is plucked out of the environment, there is little chance of the apple falling in another orchard.

Before getting to Bongbong’s Marcus’s hands, a note about his parents hands can tell us whether there is similarity between their hands and the hands of their son, Bongbong.

Wang Yibo - an actor and a philosopical man

Wang Yibo
The swanky Wang Yibo is a Chinese actor, dancer, singer, rapper, and professional motorcycle racer. Quite a versatile celebrity, and one of the most famous in China.

His hand is unique, in the sense that it is large. Sure, people do have large hands, but it is not so common. That is perhaps why there are many mentions of Wang Yibo’s large hands. Large hands have significance in palmistry, but their significance can never be understood fully unless one takes into account the hand as a whole.
