The Dalai Lama's hand analysis

His Holiness Dalai Lama is the spiritual and political leader of Tibet. As a palmist and hand reader, one would expect significant differences between his passive and active hands because his life changed dramatically when he was a child and this would have impacted his personality and the future. The passive hand shows inherited/subconscious qualities (in Dalai Lama's case his left hand is the passive one) and the right active hand would show the current state of his mind. 

There are some differences. The headline is longer on the right,

Salman Khan's hands tell us that he is impulsive

Salman Khan's* personality is known to be a little volatile and his hand seems to bear this out. His fingers and palm have a good shape from the palmistry angle, but some of the mounts seem overdeveloped. The mounts of Venus, Lower Moon and Lower Mars are strong, and this indicates that his personality is strongly influenced by the qualities of these mounts.

The question that arises is: Are there other character traits shown on this hand, which will balance this out?

Deep passion, fighting qualities, a high level aggression and pushiness need to

Jacob Zuma's hand analysis

Jacob Zuma’s hands tell us why he became the President of South Africa. He is far more than just a capable man - he is a master strategist! 

In some ways, Zuma’s hands are very well balanced. Hands, fingers and palms are well shaped, fingertips squarish, with the Apollo (ring) fingertip is likely to be spatulate. The thumb is good, in the sense that it is long with a good balance of its first and second phalanges, although the second phalange is thick. 

This indicates a person with an overall balance of personality, a broad outlook on life, common sense, and a doer mentality. There are other important indicators of his personality shown in his hand, like

What do Suresh Kalmadi's hands tell us?

A comparison of Suresh Kalmadi's (politician and sports administrator in India) right and left hands tells us that his destiny changed because he changed. He writes with his right hand, and thus his right hand tells us about his current state of mind and the left, his inherited or subconscious qualities which would have guided him towards another destiny.

Although the differences in his left passive hand and the right active hand are not too many, they are significant. For one thing,

Albert Einstein's hand analysis

Those born with great intellect, a creative mind and an effective personality are considered lucky. Those who grow up in an environment which enhances their best qualities and brings out their full potential are considered extremely lucky indeed. Albert Einstein was lucky enough to have had both.

Two aspects of his hand leap out at you. The long, balanced and deeply etched headline entering the Moon mount, shows not just a fine mind but a mind with a high level of mental concentration and mental stamina, which is as important as intelligence. Just intelligence without staying power does not work. The curved, well-developed Mount of Moon reveals immense creativity. It is the Middle Mount of Moon which is the most developed, and when combined with his kind of headline, tells the tale of an inventor.

What better combination than a fine intellect, mental stamina and creative genius? Well, a person needs something more –

Omar Abdullah's hand reading

Omar Abdullah's political inheritance catapulted him into the Chief Minister's chair in the Indian state of Jammu & Kashmir. When one comes from an eminent political family the person’s suitability for the job is rarely questioned. But a study of the hand can invariably reveal the truth about the personality of this political scion.

Perhaps Omar Abdullah would have done well in a country with less politics in politics, Britain for instance. The way he is, he will find it tough

Alejandro Jodorowsky's hands show his genius

Reading the hands of an exceptional and brilliant personality can makes one's heart skip a beat. One may not be lucky enough to meet these geniuses in real life, but there is the privilege of being able to delve into their minds. In a way, that can be more gratifying than meeting and shaking their hands.

Alejandro Jodorowsky is a well-known Chilean filmmaker who is also known as a spiritual guru. I had not heard of him until a reader requested me to read his hands. Unfortunately, with so few photographs of his hands available on the internet this proved to be a difficult task. However, I was persuaded to read with whatever little I had. This is a brief reading.

The most striking aspect of Jodorowsky’s character is his exceptional creative ability, fantastic imagination, quickness, mental agility, and a high degree of intelligence, musical ability, deep passion, love, and ambition.

There is some controversy regarding him. Apparently, he said

Rajiv Gandhi's hands show that he was shy

Rajiv Gandhi’s hands show some qualities of a leader, but they also show that he lacked boldness, independence and self-confidence. Cautiousness, sensitiveness and diffidence were a part of him. He inherited a shy nature (shown by the left hand which in his case is the dormant hand) which was enhanced due to his environment.

It is generally believed that he had charisma. He was good-looking but he was too shy a man possess charisma, at least in

Hand analysis of Ayatollah Khomeini

Grand Ayatollah Seyyed Ruhollah Mousavi Khomeini (1902-1989), Iran’s first Supreme Leader, has an interesting hand, and one that corroborates his achievements and also tells us something about his personality. He was a holy man, but does his hand shows that he was a genuinely spiritual man?

One significant character trait quite noticeable in his hand is his charisma. He has been criticised by the non-Muslim world, but it is clear why people in Iran revere him even now, years after his death. He was a leader with a powerful and towering personality.

His hands have a long, narrow palms and either medium-length or long fingers. The development of the mount of Venus on his hand, along with the long thumb and the slight gap between his head and lifeline shows that he was bold, confident, and had a love for his people. He had great self-control and control over others although his hand shows bias. He was the kind of personality with a great will to implement his ideas, without bowing down to opposition. Strong and determined

Ustad Zakir Hussain's hand analysis

Zakir Hussain’s hands reveal his enormous talent - and more. They show that his talent was inherited, and then developed and honed to an extraordinary degree because of his early environment. The combination of an inherited talent plus intense training from childhood can lead to only one result –

Wen Jiabao's hand analysis

Wen Jiabao, the Chinese Prime Minister, has a hand that shows a love for his country and also strong idealism. This is common in many good politicians. At the same time, his hands show that he is humble and at heart, not very confident deep in his heart.

His hand shows that he has a genuine warmth for people, a reasonable attitude, and a lack of stubbornness. He is not diplomatic, however; can be blunt. He is an intelligent man, with a good imagination and in that sense, he can be called a visionary.

He has a

Aamir Khan's hand analysis

Aamir Khan, a leading Indian actor and director, has a complex hand. It comes across as belonging to a strong-willed person with vision, intelligence and talent. The contradiction lies in the fact that he can be quite unreasonable despite being intelligent, and he can be mean despite a strong compassionate side, and he may give in to his physical self despite enormous self-control.

The shape of his palm is broad, and he has shortish fingers, with good first and second phalanges. The Mercury (little) finger is long although overall his fingers are short, and most of his fingers have squarish tips, and all this shows
