Italy is lucky to have Georgia Meloni as the PM

Georgia Meloni, the current Prime Minister of Italy, is the first woman to be the Italian PM. She is a Conservative and one cannot help but be curious how she reached such a pinnacle in her career. She is not connected to an Italian political family and nor is she from a rich family. Only her hands can reveal what makes her such a special personality.

Her fingers are fairly well balanced with her palm (neither too long nor short in relation to the palm) and the fingers are normally set (neither high-set nor low-set). The thumb is long with the first

phalange slightly thick and even the second phalange of the thumb is not too slim. The first phalanges of her fingers are mostly good, as in long, as are the second phalanges. The tip of her index (Jupiter) finger is conic and the tip of pinky (Mercury) finger, which is slightly curved, is almost pointed. Regarding her fingers, although they are normally set, the middle (Saturn) finger seems to be a little shorter than normal, and the ring (Apollo) finger a little longer.

She has a fairly long curved headline and although it appears to be tied to the lifeline, it is actually a little separated. There is some disturbance at the beginning of her lifeline but it is fairly alright going forward. In fact, later the lifeline goes significantly outwards towards the palm and the Venus mount is well developed. The Lower Mars and Upper Moon mounts are also well developed.

From her hand it’s easy to believe that she is a politician. No doubt she appears to fit into the mould of a typical successful politician. A very smart one at that. Her hand tells us about her shrewdness and her ability to connect with others. She is amazingly articulate; able to use words cleverly and can manipulate others with her words. Her ability to speak well is a great quality to have for a politician. She can sweet-talk people but at the same time she is not likely to be diplomatic with her inner circle. In fact, she can be quite direct and blunt. 

Her desire to be in the limelight is also shown prominently on her hand. Anyone with this desire will be drawn to the stage in some manner or the other. This desire for fame is another personality characteristic common in successful politicians. Most important, her hands shows leadership ability. She can control people and lead them. Her hand shows her to be a strong, wilful, and at times, a stubborn leader but she is not a selfish one. She genuinely cares about people, and patriotism and idealism are also shown on her hand. And she can carry people along with her, convince them to her point of view.

Reading all this on her hand was not surprising. What is a little surprising is that her right-wing politics doesn’t quite shout out loudly from her hand. She is known to be a critic of globalism, is opposed to euthanasia, same-sex marriage, and same-sex parenting and has also been described as Islamophobic. What is clear is that her hand does show narrow views particularly till the age of maybe around forty or the mid-forties, but her hand also shows that as she grew older, she became more open to other viewpoints. Clearly not all of her views can change overnight, and publicly she has not declared any such thing. But her hands show that she is not as rigid in her views as earlier.

Also, her hand reveals that she is something of a risk-taker, and also little resentful of boundaries and traditions. Maybe she is a rebel of sorts...again qualities which do not sit well with Conservative politicians. Human beings are complex, and maybe her rebellious nature led her to form conservative views...a kind of opposition to the left liberal culture.

Her hand also shows flexibility and this is not a characteristic often seen on conservative people. Generally speaking, conservatives tend to have hardened views. The flexibility personality trait seems to contradict her wilful nature...but not really. In the short term yes, she can be stubborn, but she is the kind of person who can get influenced by others and she can change. Maybe it’s her very flexibility combined with her charm, particularly in the way she uses words, that gives her the populist appeal that got her to where she is. She can simultaneously reach out to different types of people.

She is known to be pragmatic and there is nothing on her hand to contradict this. Her hand shows her to be sensible with a holistic approach to governance. She is also a hardworking politician with an analytical mind and she pays attention to detail, all the while being able to see the larger picture.

No doubt Italy has got itself a decent and talented politician. Sometimes I think that women have to be especially good to rise.
