The hands of Nirmala Devi, popularly known as Mataji (1923 –2011) show intelligence, pragmatism, aggression and boldness, and these qualities are developed to a high degree. Generally speaking, people with this combination are successful in life. However, if I had not known that these were Mataji’s hands I would not have been able to pinpoint the field in which her success lay. Her hands do not show any great talent in

Varun Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi - a comparison
As far as the hands go, neither Varun Gandhi nor Rahul Gandhi's hands show the kind of leadership ability that the Gandhi family is famous for. However, Varun has some qualities that could make him a better politician than his cousin Rahul. Not many details can be seen from web photos but one can get a sense of what Varun is like.

Richard Stallman's psychological make-up
People hold extreme views for a variety of reasons and their hands can reveal why they think that way. People are often suspicious of radicals, especially of their motives. Are these people genuine or simply trying to attract attention? Are they kooks of some kind? The hand can unmask a person's character to some extent.
The dominant aspects of Richard Stallman's hands are the well-developed Mounts of Moon and Venus, although Moon appears to be stronger. These developed mounts overshadow other mounts, and this can create a lack of

Pratibha Patil's hand reading
One wonders whether the public's disappointment with Pratibha Patil is more because she succeeds the eminent scientist Abdul J Kalam, or whether the Indian public is right in thinking her wanting? What do Patil's hands reveal about her real self?
Patil's hands show some good personality traits. Her hand reveals analytical ability which will enable her to perform the tasks she undertakes quite well. Small things will not escape her notice. This type of ability is useful for academic work. However, at the same time, it must be mentioned that her hand shows

Her hands have a multitude of minor lines like the Mercuryline, several Fate lines and also the Girdle of Venus. In addition, there is a wide gap between her Head and Heart lines, and there is the well developed Mount of Venus.
These signs reveal that Rihanna is an intelligent woman, driven strongly by materialistic ambitions. There is

Jennifer Hudson's hand reading
Jennifer Hudson’s broken headline has been interpreted as being caused due to the shock of a personal tragedy (the murders of her mother, brother and nephew) and perhaps it is so. However, as her Headline does not break at the precise time when the tragedy took place (age 27), the answer is a bit more complicated than that.
Jennifer’s first Headline (or part Headline) shows an ambitious, strongly focused and materialistic person. This type of Headline, although good for success, shows a narrow and selfish approach. This Headline continues for

About Cheiro's hand
William John Warner, known as Cheiro, made palmistry well known but there are those who feel that his books do not explain exactly how he arrived at conclusions and made such accurate predictions. I tend to agree with this, and believe that it is unlikely that Cheiro himself knew how he did it. His extraordinary ability probably came from strong intuition, bordering on sixth sense.

The long Headline plunging into the Moon Mount is often found on the hands of intellectuals and well-known authors and poets. A Headline like that can show a high level of intelligence, imagination and brilliance in the character (as in the case of Dr Radhakrishnan) but one has to read this sign with caution.

Rani Mukerji's hand reading
Rani Mukerjee’s hands are not like the hands of a typical hand of a film star. Her hands show a personality with a love of order, punctuality, security, and also a sensible and practical attitude in most things. It is because of this down-to-earth attitude that she is able to keep her ego in the backseat. It's not as if she doesn’t have an ego, because she does. It's just that she is too practical to let it interfere with her work.
The main features of her hand are her broad, large palm, short fingers with knots and squarish tips, developed mounts, particularly Jupiter. What makes these features significant is that these signs are fairly pronounced. Her lines are visible only faintly (from the photos) but a long stable headline can be seen. The headline and strong thumb combined add to her qualities of common sense and reveal her intelligence, capability and organizational abilities.

Salva Kiir Mayardit's hand reading
A good statesman needs to have the qualities of compassion, a strong sense of justice, leadership abilities, and integrity, and of course good administrative ability and vision. Do Salva Kiir Mayardit's (President of South Sudan) hands show these qualities?
The significant features of Kiir's hands are the longish shape of the hand, deeply etched lines, a few conic fingers or normal length, a very wide mount of Venus, a high-set and sloping Headline, large supple thumb and a comparatively clean hand, with not too many lines crisscrossing each other. Either that or the finer lines are not visible on the hand.

Bipasha Basu's hand reading
Bipasha Basu* is known for her strong personality, but is she a diva? Strength of personality is a composite of different personality traits, and at times not everything about a strong person is considered pleasant. Let us see what Bipasha's hands tell us when we delve a little deep.
Her finger of Saturn, it’s length, and the relative length of the phalanges shows her intensity and passion, and her Headline, Fateline and thumb reveal her focus and willpower. She also has a developed Upper Mars and this indicates mental strength, and tells us of a person who is stoic, brave, and a fighter. Such people do not have mental collapses even in the worst of circumstances, if the headline is good and hers is. However, a strong Upper Mars needs to be softened by other signs otherwise it can imply implacability or even disagreeableness. Bipasha's hand

The secret of Oprah's success as shown by her hands
The striking aspect of Oprah Winfrey's hand are her deeply etched and clear lines which are in balance with the shape and texture of her hand. This balance is critical when it comes to overall personality balance. The major features of her hand (which can reveal Oprah's personality characteristics) besides her strong lines are her evenly set fingers of normal length (relative to each other) except for her Mercury finger and thumb, both of which are longer than normal. The Mercury or little finger and the thumb factor greatly in any individual's eventual success.

The broad shape of his palm, slim fingers, the longish thumb with balanced phalanges, and the good headline show the ability to reason and good judgment. What can also be seen from his hand is a strong determination, the ability to see issues from different perspectives, broad thinking, organisational capability and importantly, a desire to help his people and to put them before himself - all this is shown on his hand.

Why Arnold Schwarzenegger is unfaithful
Arnold Schwarzenegger and Tiger Woods are both very successful (married) men who betrayed their wives not just for one woman but for a string of them. Oddly enough, they couldn’t be more different. The only thing they share is a high sex drive.
Tiger Woods hands show him to be a better specimen of humanity as his hands show more refinement, more heart, more balance of personality, and more control. However, Woods' hands also show a naturally deceptive nature and also a high level of impressionability. When these traits are combined with a high sex drive it often results in an inability to stick to one partner although Woods is likely to repent and repent sincerely.

Prince William is not like his father Prince Charles
A cursory glance at Prince William’s hand tells us that his hand resembles his father’s hand rather than his mother’s. The major features of William’s hand (which he shares with Prince Charles) are the large, broad palm with the developed mounts of Moon and Jupiter and to some extent, Mercury and Lower Mars. This means that like his father, Prince William is a good human being, fairly unselfish and broadminded, and also healthy, active and aggressive. The Mount of Moon gives them both a restlessness, and the penchant for travel.
However, Prince William’s hand is only superficially like his father’s. Prince Charles’ hands show that he goes to an extreme

The difference between Anna Hazare and Mahatma Gandhi

The major characteristics of Hazare’s hand are his strong Mount of Moon, the deep and dark lines on his rather rectangular palm, development of the middle part of the hand, slightly short conic fingers accompanied by a long thumb. Mahatma Gandhi, on the other hand, has a squarer palm with a better balance of the Mounts, a larger hand and longer fingers, telling us that he is very different from Anna Hazare, although they share

The character of an unfortunate street urchin
The little boy in the sketch is not famous and never will be. He is a contrast to those who have found a place on this blog because he has little chance of becoming famous. Born without inherited wealth, with no access to education, without the caring environment of a family to nurture his hidden talents and help him control his weaknesses, he is probably doomed from the start.
I saw him on the streets begging. Either his parents have pushed him into it or he is an orphan. He is just one boy amongst thousands of street children and by reading his hand I am no way implying that the others on the street are like him.
This boy has one of the saddest hands I've seen. His right hand tells us what his character is likely to be when he becomes an adult, based on his status and circumstances today. Sure, he could change, although

Well, apart from a brutish, coarse nature that they shared, they were very different people. Both Hitler and Idi Amin were aggressive to an extreme extent – such people roughshod over others to reach their goals. But the goals of these two were different and so was their thought process.

Rahul Dravid is known as “the wall” for his enormous resistance or staying power. Is this quality present on his hand? Generally speaking, the “resistance” that people have can be due to several overt reasons – strong will-power and determination, a cool head and inner mental strength. In Dravid’s case, it is more to do with his extraordinary will power and a cool head and less to do with mental strength.
