Hand Lines
The Head Line
● starts between the index finger and the thumb and moves across the middle of the palm.
● This line determines how a person thinks and acts
● "A long line could mean that the person is more likely to keep going after their goals in the face
of adversity. It might also mean they take longer to make decisions."
 ● "A short line could mean that the person will shift their goals and adapt when obstacles arise.
Also, they may make their decisions quickly. "

The Heart Line

● This line starts at the outer edge of the hand and ends under the middle finger or index finger.
● This line determines a person's passions, what appeals to them and pushes them towards action,
and what their relationships could be like.
● When reading this line, it is important to note the length..
○ If the line is long, the person can probably sense the emotions and feelings of those
around them, and are very considerate towards others.
○ If the line is short, the person values personal freedom within relationships, and probably
prefers one-on-one interactions to groups.
● Next, check if the line is straight or curved.
○ A straight line could mean the person thinks in a more logical and rational sense with a
tendency to be analytical when careers are involved.
○ A curved line could mean that the person is willing to go to great measures to follow their
passions.
○ X’s on this line can indicate a betrayal by a loved one.
○ A double heart line (two smaller heart lines that run parallel) could mean that the person
usually puts the feelings of others above their own feelings.

The Life Line

● This line is the arc that runs from between the thumb and index finger and ends near the wrist.
● This line is indicative of a person's health and comfort level in the long term.
● Check for how deep and visible this line is.
○ The higher the visibility of this line, the more resistant that person is to illness. If the line
is hard to see, it could mean that the person may need to take extra precautions in staying
healthy in their day to day lives.
○ Breaks in the Life Line could indicate a possible health issue or major traumatic event in
that person's life. However, these events can be avoided by making self-care and healthy
habits a priority.
● When reading, don't put too much emphasis into the length of the Life Line. Most readers believe
that the length has little to nothing to do with the length of a person's life
.

Other Hand Lines

 This goes from the base of the palm and moves up toward the base of the middle finger.

over their heart. If the heart line doesn’t intersect the head line, the person may trust their heart
over their head. .

of others around them. If the head line and life line are completely separate, the person is largely
independent and self-sufficient.
