Another important learning branch is that physical features of the hands can be used to interpret personality traits and predict future events in one’s life. This can be accomplished by inspecting the palms. This form of art is called palm reading, chiromancy, or chirology. People who read palms are called palmists, palm readers, or hand analysts and they have roots in astrology.  Now a popular and fashionable worldwide way of seeing a person’s fate and personality is by reading palm lines, hand shapes and colours, etc.

It is believed that its roots are in Hindu astrology, in Sanskrit, we call it Jyotish. Sage Valmiki had written a book that contains 567 stanzas with a headline called The Teachings of Valmiki Maharshi on Male Palmistry. During the 16th century, the art of palmistry was suppressed by the Catholic Church. It is believed that its roots are in Hindu astrology. In Sanskrit, we call it Jyotish.

Some of the lines of the hand in palmistry are:

• Lifeline
• Headline
• Heart line
• Girdle of Venus
• Sunline
• Mercury line
• Fate line

For modern palm readers, it’s important to analyse both the left and right hands if we want to know the above-mentioned lines. Analysing both palms reveals how a person is manipulating their potential in this lifetime. The texture of the hand plays a key role in reading palms. The shape of one’s hands and their associated elements: fire, earth, air, and water; the hand’s mountains and plains, regions that correspond to major areas of life, as well as lines, tell a story about the future
