How different are Andrew and Chris Cuomo?

Andrew Cuomo, the ex-governor of New York, has been in the news lately with sexual harassment allegations and unfortunately his brother Chris has been accused of inappropriate behaviour as well. Their personalities are however quite different as shown by their hands.

Andrew Cuomo’s hand shows a person who is passionate, at times volatile, and also quite impulsive. There is intensity and energy in the moment, the kind of intensity can be very useful when one is focused on a goal. Such people give their everything when they set their minds on something. The flip side is difficulty in seeing the other side, and it can at times result in bullheadedness. Yes, the hand also shows warmth and

Arnab Goswami – what lies behind his television persona?

Arnab Goswami has made a name for himself with a flamboyant type of journalism, heading/owning as he does two of the most popular channels in India, of the Republic stable. There are critics galore but then there are devoted fans too. 

One wonders what makes the man who he is. Shouting and being rude is a part and parcel of his grandiose television persona and at times the “debates” get so heated as to sound almost deranged. Some feel that Arnab is not altogether sane…well, his hands tell us otherwise! 

The shape of his hand is normal, in the sense that he has a rectangular palm and medium-length fingers, tapering at the end. All of his lines – the head, heart and life – are well etched, although the heartline with its large fork dominates. The headline is clearly separated from the lifeline and is very high. Not only does it start high (at the base of the mount of Jupiter) it keeps going higher (not so common at all) and remains in this high position till around the time it reaches the ring finger. This narrows the space between the head and heart lines. It’s not too dissimilar on the left, passive hand. The Fate or Saturn line, though deep at the start,

Is MJ Akbar a sexual predator?

After the spate of sexual harassment allegations faced by MJ Akbar (a newspaper editor and ex-minister in the Indian government), I looked at his hands to see if there was something on his hands which explained it. It was shocking to hear that a man with such a formidable reputation and a family, should get himself into the news in this unsavoury manner

His hands are a good size and his fingers are long and slim, with significantly long and slim first phalanges and the thumb is long. He has sensitive pads on the tips of his fingers, and the main lines are fairly clear. The Saturn (Fate) line starts early and is quite dark until well into the forties. The Apollo (Sun) line is clear too and visible from a young age, an unusual marking for a journalist. The palm is slightly rectangular, not too much, and the lower mount of Mars is very highly developed, along with the Jupiter mount. The tips of his fingers are rounded, and the heartline is dominant. All these hand characteristics tell us a story.
