They say that marriages are made in heaven, and that the two individuals simply meet on Earth. Well, I don't know about that. Maybe palm reading can give us some clues? Palm reading, as we all know, is the ancient art of trying to decipher how your life will turn out to be, with the help of the intricate lines on your palm. Although it is not an exact science, experts claim that it is considerably accurate. The main lines on our palm are the head line, heart line, and life line. This article is going deal with the marriage line. Yes! This is one line which arouses a lot of interest for many. Here is more on those 'lines'! Marriage Line Before proceeding to read the marriage line, we have to know its location on our palm. This small line(s) is located underneath the base of the little finger or the pinky. It is not as prominent and deep as the three other major lines, but it can be seen clearly. The number of strong lines there, are supposed to indicate the number of relationships/ marriages you would have. A palm reading diagram will help you know where exactly this line is. Now that we know the basics and the location, let's take a look at the different aspects of reading the line. Pointers for Reading a Marriage Line Different aspects of the line indicate different things, like the depth of the line, nature, curvature, and so on. Given below are the meanings of what each of the factors indicate. ☛ Long and Straight When the marriage line or lines are long and straight, it is an indicator of a long and satisfactory relationship. The love line or heart line, is located very close to the marriage line on our palm. ☛ Faint Lines In the said area of marriage lines, faint lines represent flings and romances. On the contrary, if the line is prominent and deep, it is a strong indicator of marriage, according to palm reading. Marriage line with a fork has a different meaning altogether. ☛ Close To or Far From the Small Finger It is believed that if the marriage line is lower on the Mount of Mercury, which is the fleshy area below your pinky, close to your heart line, you will marry early. If the line is higher, closer to the little finger, it means that the individual will have a late marriage. ☛ Lines Indicating Children In case there are other, slightly fainter lines, meeting the marriage line but not crossing it, it indicates that children will be born after marriage. On the other hand, if the faint lines cross the marriage line, then it indicates that children may be born before marriage. ☛ Fork in the Line Look closely at your marriage line. Is there a fork? If there is, a fork which is near the starting point of the line indicates a long engagement before marriage. On the contrary, a line ending with a fork indicates a possible separation, divorce or no divorce. ☛ Double Lines This is a really tricky aspect in palm reading. Dual lines indicate relationships with two people at the same time. Moreover, the depth of the relationships will be determined, by the depth and prominence of the lines. ☛ Curvature of the Line If the line curves downward, it is believed that a person will outlive his/ her partner, while if the line has a strong upward curve, in the direction of the base of the finger, it means that an individual may remain unmarried, but not necessarily celibate. In relation to marriage and life line, if the line curves upwards in the direction of the Mount of Sun, it means that the individual will get married to a rich person. ☛ Break in the Line If there is a break in the marriage line, the split lines usually come together again with an overlap, after breaking. As per the palm reading guide, it represents union after a separation. Astrologers and palmists believe this to be true and accurate, but I do not know for sure. What I am sure of is, as regards palm reading, what you have been told (especially if it's not rosy), should in no way deter you from doing what you have to, and what you feel is right for you!
