- A life line that is long and deep is suggestive of a full life brimming with health and vitality. A short life line that is strong and deep is also representative of great vitality and the potential to overcome health problems.
- If there are extra lines doubling or tripling the life line, it shows great vitality in your life and that there will always be positive forces around you.
- A straight line that sticks close to the side of your palm, shows a limited exploration of love due to a very cautious nature.
- If the life line is short and shallow, your life may tend to be controlled by others. A long swooping semicircular life line around the base of the thumb, shows great strength and enthusiasm and a good love life.
- If your life line appears like a chain, it denotes a not so robust physical health and emotional well-being. You may be prone to allergies.
- If you have a donut right in the middle of the life line, it indicates hospitalization due to some accident, whilst a square indicates protection when you need it and may also mark a turning point in your life.
- If your life line breaks in between, it represents a sudden change in lifestyle, an accident or an illness.
- If there are lines above the life line in the direction of your fingers, they show an ability to recover from situations, and ones that extend below denote that you have a habit of wasting your energy.
- If there are lines intersecting the life line, they indicate worries or dangers. If there is a star somewhere, it indicates a crisis.
- If the head line is stronger than the life line, it means that the person likes intellectual stimulation more than physical activity. If there are small lines arising from the life line, it is suggestive of someone who's quite active and vibrant.
- If the line extends to the middle of your palm in the direction of its base, away from the thumb, it means you'll travel a lot in you life.
- Branches leading to the mount of Jupiter suggest that you'll go quite ahead on the academic front; those leading to the mount of Apollo suggest a lot of the green stuff (money) flowing in and those leading to the mount of Saturn suggest success with property transactions.
- If the head line and the life line join at the beginning, it indicates a strong sense of mind that rules the body. These people have a rather cautious outlook about their childhood and have fears. Separated lines denote a sense of freedom, love for adventure and enthusiasm for life.
- If the head line ends short, it suggests a rather straightforward person and quite a simplistic way of thought and limited mental aims. If your head line is long, it means that you're given to thinking things through very carefully.
- Double lines show strong mental abilities.
- If the line is short and curves upward, you have short attention span and are a bit of a scatterbrain. A long line curving upwards represents retentive memory. If the short head line swoops downward toward the heel, the person is more imaginative and creative.
- A straight line indicates someone who is narrowed, with a more realistic way of thinking. Deeper the head line, the better the memory, whilst a curved one suggests someone who's open to newer ideas and suggestions and has a more expansive way of thinking. If the line is more horizontal, it means that you're of a practical nature and if the line is slanted, you're more creative.
- If there's a star on the head line, it represents quite a significant mental achievement.
- If there are crosses through the line, they are indicative of some important decisions in your life.
- The space between the life line and the head line is called the 'angle of luck'. The greater the space, the more your luck.
- If your head line is of a chain-like structure, it means you're quite a nervous and uptight person.
- If the head line is wavy, you have a short attention span and don't think very deep, but that is no hindrance to your intellect.
- The heart line often has more than just one line, and when it's that way, one line is usually curved suggesting romantic affairs, whilst the other which is straight is passive. Curved lines are more frequent in men and straight in women. Partnerships work well and smoothly if both partners have similar heart lines.
- Quite a content and normal love life is represented by a heart line that begins under the index finger.
- If your heart line begins right below the middle finger, then you have a selfish and materialistic view about love.
- If it begins between the index and middle finger, you may have a slight disregard to the real meaning of love and the responsibilities it brings along. You tend to give your heart away easily.
- If the line extends boldly across the entire palm, then you're looking for people who are above your own status and respect them a lot, possibly more than yourself. And if such a line runs straight and parallel to the head line, that means you have a strong control over your emotions.
- If the heart line is long and curved upwards, then the person has a pleasantly romantic nature and they extend their warmth through their deeds. They may also tend to give a lot of themselves to love, regardless of its cost.
- A short line shows that you aren't so interested in matters of love and affection. But if this line is strong and deep, then whatever affections you have are stable.
- A wavy, broken or chain-like line represents numerous loves and none so serious.
- A star on the line is representative of a happy marriage while a donut or a circle would represent a time of depression.
- Emotional loss, by way of death or end of a relationship, is symbolized by broken line and a line with tiny lines intersecting it.
- If there are tiny lines extending upward towards your fingers, they show happiness in your love life; those extending downward symbolize disappointment.
- If you have double heart lines, then you'll be protected by your loved one.
- A heart line with a conspicuously strong curve below the index and middle fingers denotes a strong sex drive; and one's who're driven more by libido and lust than love have a short and straight heart line. A heart line that ends right below the index finger is of a person too choosy about a partner.
- If there's a conspicuous branch that goes below to touch the life line, it implies a person who's very easily hurt in love.
- A weak or faint fate line indicated someone who's quite unsettled and always on the go. He may change his jobs a lot. Whilst, a strong fate line indicates someone who is quite well-settled.
- A fate line that starts at the bottom of the palm means that someone has found his life path and are well on it. If the fate line ends at the head line, it means someone who has lost his way a bit and need to change direction to get right back where they should be in life.
- Most fate lines end at the heart line but if it goes all the way to almost meet the middle finger, it means you'll be quite the active one even when old.
- When a person has more than one career, there will be a double fate line. In some palms, there isn't a fate line at all which shows instability.
- A fate line that joins the life line, suggests a self-made individual, knowing from a young age what your true aspirations are.
- A fate line that begins at the wrist and then joins the life line suggests sacrifices of your own interest or surrendering these interests to those of other people. If this fate line separates again, then you'll be in control of your life again.
- If your fate line begins at the base of your thumb, inside the curve of your life line, it represents a point where you have all the support of you family and close friends.
- If your fate line starts at the base of your palm, it indicates that you will rise from obscurity to being in the limelight as a politician or an entertainer.
- If there is a break in your fate line at the head line and then it goes on, you will successfully change jobs in middle years.
- If there's a star at the end of your fate line, it indicates that you will be certainly successful. If the fate line with a star ends under the index finger, you'll be successful and famous in non-creative fields. If the star ends under the middle finger, you will see success after several years of working hard. If the star ends under the ring finger, you'll find success in a creative and artistic field.
- If your fate line breaks abruptly, it means you will have quite a bit of trouble in your life and it won't be so smooth.
- If you have lines intersecting your fate line, you will have times that will be shadowed due to opposition by others.
