If someone wanted to start learning the art of palmistry where would be a good place to start? bearing in mind:

On no account should you try that garbage that Ian Rowland writes

I am intregued as to what books are a good reputable source of knowledge for this "palmistry lore"

quoting Mark Lewis:

I notice that Bobby Cat has not confirmed that he has few lines on his hand. Perhaps he has- perhaps he hasn't. It would be interesting to see if I am correct or not.

unfortunately, few lines, many lines... surely a very relative situation. i will make some comparisons and get back to you in due course.

re the palm reading excersize mentioned, in particular your suggestion Mark of reading 3 - 4 palms of people who's identity you did not know. seems like it's a no-go so too bad. i'll get back to you on the "lines issue" though.

Just the one?

I must inform Eckozero that I did not say that he was necessarily quick tempered. I merely indicated that the gap in the lines indicated that this was a typical characteristic of people that were. It is certainly a characteristic of people who are outspoken and impulsive.

He said that the quick temper was a problem he used to have. I would have to check the scan of his hands again. I would also like to know if he is right handed. If this is the case then his left hand would show the characteristics that he has inherited. The gap may be smaller in his right hand. I will have to look when I get time.

With regard to the appearance of the various hands here I suspect Craig has a lot of lines and possibly long fingers. The life line and head line may be somewhat jagged. Come to think of it I expect the heart line is too. I won't go into why I think this.

I think Bobby Cat has a squarish hand with few lines. This is the sign of a sceptical practical down to earth person. If I see a hand like this I know I have an unbeliever unless there are certain lines which indicate otherwise. Farmers seem to have hands like this for no reason that I can particularly figure out. It is just something I have noticed.

Costas has more lines than Bobby Cat and quite a distinct loop underneath and in between his index and second finger. Moreover his fate line is quite apart and distinct from his life line. I haven't the time to explain the individual lines and where they are. I am getting fed up with the subject already since I am earning no money from it.

I get a psychic vibe that Abraxus has a rather hairy hand................

Incidentally I have had another look at Eckozero's hands. He IS impatient in the sense that he does not like to wait for a bus or line up in a supermarket. Of course most people don't but Eckozero is a little more antsy than usual in this department.

When I am less exhausted I will read his palm. As for Bobby Cat's agreement to my idea of reading several palms without knowing who the owner is I am glad that Mandrake ruled against it. I wouldn't be able to do it anyway and I wish I hadn't mentioned it. It would take far too long and be far too tedious for me. Rest assured that I have done it many times and that it is perfectly feasible. Not that I am anything special. Any competent palmist can do it.

Tarot cards are different. You really need the presence of the person although I have often done it without. However the reading is far more accurate if the person is there because you pick up on things.

However if I do not pick up a darn thing during the reading (tarot) I just calm down and leave it to the universe. I do a silent prayer for the person that they will never know about ( I don't believe in God-figure that one out) and say to myself "I don't know the answer to this. I shall let the cards figure it out" And you know what? The cards always do................

Again I don't believe there is anything supernatural about this. It is NATURAL and there is a perfectly reasonable earthly reason for it all working.

I don't care if it is "real" or not. I just care if it works and it makes me money. And it does.

Mark is on the mark, as it were... I have many very deep lines as well as finer (worry) lines all over my hands. You'll also find some "pentacles" in both palms (insert spooky music here) and have a hard time sleeping on the full moon... shouldn't be too big a surprise in that one of my main totems is the wolf, but I am careful about crossing Gypsies... I just don't need another curse in my life like that one

Yes Mark, sorry, I forgot to mention - I am indeed right handed. However the ring on my left hand is not indicative of marriage if that is of any interest to palmistry at all...

At your age indeed!

Mind you, in the Fens who knows?

"Incidentally I have had another look at Eckozero's hands. He IS impatient in the sense that he does not like to wait for a bus or line up in a supermarket. Of course most people don't but Eckozero is a little more antsy than usual in this department. "

I think Ecko Zero scanned my hands by accident. That described me pretty well I'm the most impatient person alive.

Let's not discuss marriage in the fens especially when the sheep can't defend themselves.

Mr Lewis...I don't know if this is anything at all relevant to palmistry, but I've always wondered...on my right palm I have a mole, it's on the left side at the bottom beside a line that runs up alongside my life line. Is this unusual, does it mean anything at all?

The mole means nothing..............
And if you are indeed impatient then the odds are that you have short fingers.

Just watch out for the toad and the water rat!

Ah okay.
Actually I don't have short fingers, they're not overly long but by no means short.

If I say they are short they are short. Your opinion has no bearing on the matter. After all I am the psychic not you.

"Short" does not have be short. Short in palmistry terms means in comparison to the rest of your hand. Therefore the fingers can be long but short at the same time.

See. We psychic people have an answer for everything.

Incidentally the line that runs parallel to your life line might mean that someone close to you passed away. If nobody did then it could simply mean a guardian angel of some sort. It sounds like a protection line. It is difficult to judge without seeing it.

However that will cost extra.

Enough of this nonsense. I find Eckozero's hand a very interesting one and fascinating to read. The only trouble is that I cannot figure out a way to read it and then type the results on here. I have to keep referring to his hand and keep typing. The back and forth is very time consuming. Still I shall try.

The first thing I am struck by is all the jaggedness in his heart line. He has certainly learned the hard way in love and in fact may be going through some sort of turning point at the moment in that area. At the very least there seems to be some confusion around his life in that department. At the very least the path of true love has not always run smoothly for him. He could well be at a crossroads in love. However the future will be much better than the past if he learns from past mistakes.

He certainly bottles up his feelings because the line goes straight across in an almost horizontal straight line. He likes people but he needs a fair bit of space on his own sometimes. He doesn't like to be crowded in.

I give up. I cannot figure out a way to go back and forth between the picture and the typing. Let me work on it and get back to you.
