Palmistry

through his work in Chiromancy and astrology.

Also known as Chiromancy, Palmistry is the study and interpretation of the
landmarks of the hands. The title “Palmistry” is actually a misnomer that has
evolved over time. With its limited descriptive scope, “Palmistry” misses the
mark of almost half the communication our hands can give us. In true
Chiromancy, not only the lines of the palm are studied, but all aspects of the
hand are taken into account.

Yes, we know. You hear “palmistry” and
in your mind you see that hunched-over
crone with bandanna around her head,
scarves everyway, a fringed shawl thrown
across a tabletop, incense and candles.
Off in the corner sits a crystal ball and
the neon light fritzes and frizzles as her
voice cackles “Let me see your palm.”
In your head the lines to “Gypsies,
Tramps and Thieves” and “Love Potion
Number 9” scream warnings of fraud. In
Renaissance times Palmistry was
associated with the Romany who are
believed by some to be the keepers of
sacred knowledge. In the Victorian era
notables such as Cicero, a celebrated
mystic, received international acclaim

Since the earliest of times, the Hand held
power. Ice Age carvings in caves such as
LasCaux in France, El Castillo in Spain, in
the Marang Mountains in Borneo, and in
dreamtime drawings of Aboriginal
Australians all show the power and
importance of the hand to our early
ancestors. Spirals appear in pre-historic
art throughout the world across cultural
boundaries. Very impressive examples still
exist today at the New Grange and Temple
Wood sites on the British Isles. The swirls
and circular spiral patterns have been
proposed to represent the Universe, others
speculate they are strictly decorative in
manner some say the swirls represent the
veil between the world of the living and the
world of the dead, while others say to learn

the language of the swirls is to know the true power of the stones. There are a
few that propose that the swirl and spiral patterns are actually representations
of the swirls and patterns of the skin on the hands.

The Ancients appear to have fully understood the power of the hand. Some
cultures ascribed the power to feminine energy. Others felt the power of the
hand should only be controlled by the masculine energy paths. Looking into
your hand is another way of looking into yourself. In his sketches Jean-Michel
Chazine catalogs over 50 different patterns on the hand paintings in the
Marang (National Geographic Magazine, August 2005). Many of the patterns
are easily recognizable to the practitioner of Chiromancy. There is also much
said in the outline of the hand, how it is splayed, the way the fingers lay, etc.
With Cave paintings dated to well over 10,000 years old they cause one to
ponder what the ancients did know and understand about the magical power of
the hand.

Each person’s hands are unique. Before the advent of DNA testing, law
enforcement agencies around the world used the study and comparison of the
swirls and circles and patterns of the skin on our fingertips as state of the art to
identify individuals with complete accuracy. Getting fingerprinted was a
standard part of the arrest processing procedure and remains so today. As
these lines, patterns and designs identify us as individuals, they, in conjunction
with the messages of the rest of the hand such as length of fingers, breadth and
width of the hand, and many other factors, tell us about ourselves.

As a reading modality, a palm reading can be conducted in one of two ways,
although the first step is the same for both reading types. Take a small amount
of white talcum powder and dust it on your hands. Wipe off the excess powder
and brush your hands. Then, make a copy of your hands, both palms up and
palms down. Make sure the lines on the hands are easy to see. (Yes, we*do*
need to see those squiggly lines on the inside of your knuckles. Please
remember when making the copy to get the best resolution possible. The better
quality submitted picture/copy of your hands, the better the analysis. Yes, we
need your thumbprint too. We’ll give you complete instructions on how to make
the copies/take pictures during the ordering process.)

After the analysis, you can receive your interpretation either in writing by e-
mail or, for an additional donation, by telephone or hard copy. The analysis will
include a complete review of not only the major lines in the palm, but the more
detailed characteristics and messages found in the smaller lines, patterns and
size relations. Because they tend to be detailed in their analysis, we recommend
that you opt for the e-mail version of the interpretation for extra savings, and to
have a copy of the written interpretation of your “palm” reading to review over
time.

Some people feel that once they have a palm reading that they need never have
one again. This is an incorrect assumption because it suggests that the palm of
the hand is static and unchanging. It simply is not. Some elements are less
subject to change (width, height, etc.) but through a variety of ways the marks
on your hand can change. Lines that were subordinate before may become
dominant. The lines on your hand do move and change directions due to the
effects of scars, repetitive motions, and the normal wear and tear of life. Cuts,
scratches, nicks and scrapes are all part of our daily fare. The hand is part of
a living breathing entity, subject to change and free will so it can shift its
message for you as you grow and continue life’s path.
