PALMISTRY : CHIROLOGY:HAND ANALYSIS

A FEW SIGNS AND MARKINGS

'Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour.'
Proverbs:3;16

'He sealeth up the hand of every man; that all men may know his work.'
Job:37;7

“The greatest truths may lie in smallest things

The greatest good in what we most despise
The greatest light may breaks from the darkest skies
The greatest chord from e’en the weakest strings”

“Science on every side is bringing forward proof of its truth and of the
mysterious principle of life with which it teems, the dust of centuries is being
removed, facts are being dug up, and things are being spoken of in this
century of surprises that go far to prove the truth of that old statement that as
the hands are the servants of the system, so all things that affects the system
affect them.”

Chiero

“ It is the purpose of Palmistry to teach you how to conquer the ancient art of
divination by means of stated rules and not by intuition. These rules would
work at all times, and under all circumstances, while intuition comes and goes
at its own sweet will under the influence of some momentary excitement which
develops, in the rare occasions, a state of true clairvoyance, never to be fully
depended upon. In the human body everything element is combined to form a
clear, distinct individuality; the features of the face, the irregularities of the
skull, the length or shortness of the limbs, the bearing, the walk, the look, the
words, the gestures – everything, even unto the handwriting; and above all,
the members of that trace the writing: the hand.”

“Never is there a hand that does not exactly reflect the brain that directs it,
and this is the basis from which a scientific study of the hand must begin.”

Benham’s investigations led him to the study of Physiology and Medicine and
research in hospitals, lunatic asylums, prisons, penitentiaries and alm-houses
and this work has led us to establish Palmistry as a science, a study worth of
the best minds.

William G. Benham

A few observations of what the dots have indicated:

Dot on the line of : Defect / ailments observed :

Life Severe attack of scarlet or typhoid

fever

Head under the mount of Saturn In deaf and dumb subjects

Heart under the mount of Apollo Heart disease

Mercury Intestinal disturbances

Chained line
Chained line is formed by the joining together of a number of links, forming a
line not that is not clear and deep It is a continuous series of obstructions from
the beginning, making the operations of the qualities of the line weak. The
chain makes it impossible for the current to flow freely and evenly through
the line as the channel is very shallow The chain is a very serious defect as it
is labored, strained and obstructed condition. Besides it is one of the most
hardest lines for repair unless the chain is very short to be covered by a
square. In almost all cases, a chained line is repaired by a sister line or lines.
The chain is generally seen on a nervous life line, sentimental heart line and a
weak Head line.

A FEW SIGNS AND MARKINGS
The triangle: Observe whether the Triangles are found: a)in the course of a
line b)by splitting of a line, or, c) it is a sign by itself. If the triangles are
formed by crossing of the main lines then they do not have much power that
belongs to them as single signs. Well marked triangles with well cut points
show great mental brilliancy of the lines, mounts or fingers. On all the mounts
a triangle applies only to the upper world of that mount- the mental brilliancy

On the mount of Indications

Jupiter Tells of ambition and the Jupiterian mental

qualities.

Moon Brilliant imagination

The grille: The grille is formed by lines crossing each other in such a manner
as to from are or dam through which is is impossible for the current to pass.
It is like an Electric Current running into a wire netting – zigzagging in every
direction and forced to escape through the end of the each wire in the net. If
the grille is very pronounced and red, the menace is great. On any mount a
grille is a bad sign, bringing out the bad side of the, then it is a lesser danger.
If vertical lines cut deep through, then some current can pass. No current gets
through if Cross-lines re the deepest.

Cross Bars: They are horizontal lines closely grouped together without the
vertical lines. It is a worse indication than the grille, for in this case the
current is entirely blocked and has no chance to escape except by overflowing
obstructions. It brings the health defects and bad effect of the mounts. The
deeper the cross bars are compared to the rest of the hand, the worst their
bad effects.

A FEW SIGNS AND MARKINGS
The circle :It is a rare sign and when found on the Life Line or on the Mount
of the Sun or on the Head Line under the Mount of Apollo, it indicates eye
trouble.

The trident is found at the upper end of the line: Either a single sign or
sometimes connected with either the lines of Saturn, Apollo or Mercury. Or
with chance lines that run in vertical direction. It is a favourable sign,
allowing the good escape of the current through proper channels. It adds
strength to the line of the sun, increasing its brilliancy and the chances of
success for the subject. If perfect, it gives its full meaning.

The Star

It is an important and a valuable sign inall possible locations; indications rare

either good or bad, depending entirely upon its location.

The star is the electric light of palmistry, the place at which the current sends
out its points of light from a common centre.

If small and even in proportion Illumination

If large and diffused Explosion

Best star:

Perfectly formed, each ray of the same length, coming from a common centre,
forming a perfectly proportionately marking.

Large Stars:

With deep red lines and deep dot the centre: an explosion which destroys, just
like a boiler which bursts.

A FEW SIGNS AND MARKINGS
Inductions of such stars on different lines:

Life line Sudden death

Head line Explosion of mental faculties, insanity

The Cross:

Sometimes a well-marked single sign, sometimes it is formed by lines crossing

other lines. A cross is an obstacle or defect, producing a bad quality, health
defect or a change in the course of the subject’s life. The current rising along
the line on reaching the cross “burns out the fuse” and a stoppage for repairs
is necessary.

Sister lines: are most valuable for repair to any line weak, broken or defective
in any way. A weak line with a sister line makes a good combination, almost as
good as a single strong in. good lines are made better by sister lines and they
should be regarded as decided benefit.
