Ryan Gosling – the extraordinarily talented actor

What a sweet heart-warming expression Ryan Gosling has...one just can’t help but like this actor. His expressive face and acting skills have charmed millions world-wide. 

Can one assume from his face that he has a personality to match? Even if so, we know that is not the secret sauce that led to his success. There has to be something else that catapulted him into the big league. That's where hand reading comes in.

Ryan has fairly large hands with a broad,

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

Sanae Takaichi - Is she good for Japan?

Sanae Takaichi is the first woman to become Japan’s Prime Minister. Japan is considered a patriarchal society so if a woman has risen to the top, there must be something very special about her. Is Takaichi really that extraordinary? The answer is written on her hands.

She has longish hands, with a long palm and fingers which are of medium length or may be a little long. Her thumb is long and its first phalanges are balanced with each other. The thumb is held fairly close to the hand and is likely to be high-set. 

The first phalanges of the fingers are good, although the first phalange of the Mercury (pinkie) finger seems to be the longest amongst all the other first phalanges and the tip of the Jupiter (index) finger is decidedly conic. The

Adrien Brody – the intelligent actor

Adrien Brody is listed by Time as one of the world's 100 most influential people globally. He’s won two Academy Awards, as well as a British Academy Film Award and a Golden Globe Award, in addition to nominations for Emmy Awards and a Laurence Olivier Award. He started his acting career early and often those who start careers early have some kind of genetic predisposition to the work. His parents were not actors, but he had a flair for it from a young age. Do his hands show that? 

Lee Joon-gi - the shy and introverted actor

One of the best South Korean actors today is Lee Joon-gi. After admiring his work in the K-drama series, Flower of Evil, one cannot help but be curious about his personality. Actors are private people and Lee Joon-gi is more so than most. Reading his hand is the only way to uncover the many layers of his persona. 

Lee Joon-gi has biggish hands, a broad palm and medium length fingers, with a low-set and long thumb. His fingers are mostly straight, although the Mercury (pinky) finger is bent. The Jupiter (index) finger is low-set, although it seems to be of normal length. The middle phalanges of the fingers are not too long but very slim; first phalanges are long; third phalanges are not developed, and could be on the shorter side or may be just about average. The head and life lines are joint considerably, till almost Saturn (middle) finger. The headline tends to dip downwards after some time, a little sharply. The heartline is curved, long and forked.

He is right-handed, which means the right is the active hand which shows his current personality and the left the passive, showing the subconscious and/or past traits. It is by comparing the two hands

Hand analysis of Argentina President Javier Milei

Via Wikimedia Commons

The most prominent sign on Javier Milei’s hand is the general fleshiness of the palm. The Moon mount is highly developed and a little reddish in colour. The bottom part of the hand is more heavily developed than the top part; the Lower Mars mount and Venus are developed as well. The third phalanges of the fingers are a little thick. The fingers overall are on the shorter side, though not very short, and the Mercury (pinky) and Jupiter (index) fingers are slightly bent. The palmar lines are of medium length, with the heartline quite straight. The headline seems to be fainter in the latter half. It is significant that the head and heart lines are darker than the other lines. The fateline, sunline and lifeline are all visible but lighter than the heart and head lines.

The thumb is long with a good balance of both phalanges. 

This hand shows a quick thinking, restless and action-oriented

Dr S Jaishankar – clever, passionate and articulate

Dr S Jaishankar is a prominent Indian politician, the Indian foreign minister currently. He was a diplomat once and has made a name for himself for being diplomatic, yet assertive, and for his strategic, witty and incisive commentary. There is nothing on his hand which contradicts this image. The hand, however, does tell us something more.

His hand doesn’t have too many lines and the lines which are present, are dark and long. A long straight heartline, a little low-set, and almost end to end. A headline closely attached to the lifeline and though not as long as the heartline, fairly straight and even. The lifeline, though clear, seems to be in two parts but as there were no high-res photos to confirm, can’t really read this line. Even the fateline is not clearly visible on the palm and this could be because it is not

Claudia Sheinbaum shines amongst her peers

It’s a relief to see the hands of a famous person and find out that the person deserves to be famous. Claudia Sheinbaum's hands tell us of a person who is mentally balanced, has a good heart, is intelligent and capable and is...well…just a normal human being! Decent and kind like all human beings should be. She is of course more than just this.

Claudia has a hand which is of a good size, and it has a refined texture, a broad palm and medium length fingers with a mix of conic and rounded tips. The thumb is a good length with its first and second phalanges well balanced with each other and the second phalange is slim as well. The lines on her palm are fine and the head and heart lines are of medium length. The headline slopes a little and the heart line curves somewhat. The lifeline, though closer to the thumb in the first half, goes outwards as it progresses. 

Claudia's Apollo (ring) finger is long, and

Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Pete Hegseth, Kash Patel and Pam Bondi - who's the worst of them all?

Mirror mirror on the wall...who's the worst of them all? Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Pete Hegseth, Kash Patel or Pam Bondi? You guessed right! It's a toss between first two. 

And their hands will tell us why.

Robert Francis Prevost, Pope Leo XIV – what's his personality like?

Are religious leaders cut from the same cloth as other human
beings? In other words, do they have human weaknesses like all of us do, or are they somehow noble or perfect in every way, and that is why they have reached the position they have? 

Their hands will reveal how great they really are. The hands of the spiritual leaders I have read on this blog tell me that it is rare to find a perfect human being, even amongst spiritual heads. Most spiritual leaders do possess something special, however. And just like amongst other human beings, it varies.

With regards to the previous Pope, Pope Francis, it was likely the intensity of his views and his unflinching commitment to the religious cause that made him special, but the pragmatic outlook must also have helped to elevate him to that position. It set him apart from the more conservative Pope, Benedict XVI.

And what about Robert Francis Prevost, who is the current head of the Catholic Church – Pope Leo XIV? Where does his greatness lie? 

Marco Rubio - how long will he last?

From the Wikipedia

Marco Rubio’s is an inspiring success story; he’s the highest-ranking Hispanic American official in U.S. history. A cursory look at his hands tells us that he is a very capable man but people are more than about capability; they are also about temperament. Rubio’s hands reveal interesting aspects of his character which can tell us whether he will be remembered as a good political leader.

Rubio has a broad, fleshy palm and the most prominent mount is that of Moon, along with Upper and Lower Mars and the Jupiter mount. The Mercury and Venus mounts are also developed. The length of his fingers, which are slightly thick and slightly bent, are well balanced with that of the palm although the Saturn (middle) finger appears to be a little

Mark Cuban - Idealistic Entrepreneur

The hands of Mark Cuban, the American billionaire entrepreneur and investor, speak volumes. The shape of his hand, the mounts, the fingers or the lines on his palm – all tell us a story. However, there's a lot about this man which remains hidden because for all his appearance of being open and outspoken, he is at heart, a loner.

Mark’s hand shape is quite good: the palm is broad and it’s balanced with the length of the fingers. The fingers are the correct length, neither too long or too short. A similar balance is seen with the phalanges of his fingers as well. Whether it's the first, second or third phalanges, they are neither too long nor too short. His fingers too are all of normal length although the Jupiter (index) finger is low-set, but it is normal in length. 

However, the third phalanges are a little thick except for

George Soros - philanthropic with an agenda

George Soros the billionaire is known to be brilliant, influential and a philanthropist. He is an open supporter of progressive policies and has also been the target of conspiracy theories, many of which have been debunked.

His hand has a broad, fleshy palm with medium length fingers. The mounts of Venus, Moon, Jupiter and Mars are the most well-developed mounts on his hand. In fact most of the mounts on his hand are developed. The lower (third) phalanges of his fingers, the second phalange of the thumb and the lower part of his hand are a little thick. His fingers are balanced in length although the Jupiter finger is low-set. The thumb is low-set as well.

He has fine lines. The heartline is more or less straight and does not reach the Jupiter mount and the headline is long, sloping, and ends on the moon mount.

This hand tells us that George Soros is a clear-thinking, perceptive,

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

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.

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?

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

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 of Stray Kids is a born leader

Bang Chan leads a South Korean boy band, Stray Kids (SKZ), and is the lead vocalist, lead dancer and a rapper. They have their English and Japanese language albums as well.

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
