When you meet somebody new, it can be fun to “check them out” using different techniques for character analysis. Palm reading is an age-old practice, and it can be a lot of fun as well. Here are some basic palmistry principles that are easy to learn, with a special emphasis on love, relationships, and attachment…
Which hand should you read?
One of the first questions people ask concerning palm reading is: Which hand do you look at? The answer is: Both, and It depends. Students of palmistry distinguish between the active and passive hand. A right-handed person’s active hand will be his or her right hand; and the left hand is considered the passive hand. Similarly, a left-handed person’s active hand is the left hand; and his or her passive hand is the right hand.
Which hand should you read?
Generally, the passive hand is read for inherited characteristics and potential. Look to the active hand for changes to these inherited traits. As a general rule, when the lines and markings on the active and passive hands are quite different, it shows a person who has actively worked toward self-development.
The size of the hand
Remember to consider the size of the hand relative to the size of the body. Generally, a large hand suggests a person who spends more time thinking than acting. A person with a relatively small hand is thought to be more active, spending less time thinking about what to do.
