Significance Of The Color, Shape, Texture And Flexibility Of The Hand

In palm reading, it is not just the lines that are read – due importance is also given to the color, shape, texture and flexibility of the hand. Let’s take a look at each of these in turn.

Color
Ever notice how a doctor checks your palms? White hands mean a lack of blood circulation. Pink hands generally indicate good health. People with red hands could probably be suffering from high blood pressure. Some people have bluish hands, which shows inadequate blood circulation. Ideally, the hand must be pinkish.

Shape

How is the shape and formation of the hands? Let’s look at the most common shapes:

• A square hand – practical, focused on success
• Tapering hand – artistic, enthusiastic, sensitive
• Spade hand – energetic, positively inclined
• Pointed hand – idealistic, impractical
• Long hand – with knotty joints, thinker, philosopher

We often come across mixed hands, so you’ll be able to see the characteristics of those features.

Texture

How does the hand feel to the touch? Is it hard, rough or soft? Usually, those with soft hands are said to be sensitive and refined. Rough hands could mean tough people who enjoy being active with rugged activities.

Flexibility

Flexible hands mean a reasonable nature. Very pliable hands mean unconventional and broadminded. People with inflexible hands are usually stubborn. Also look at the thumbs and fingers. Sometimes the thumb is set low forming a wide angle with the hand – these people tend to be careless. If the thumb is set high, it means a careful determined type.

Which Hand?

You have probably wondered about what the difference is between reading the right hand and the left hand.  People who are right handed are more logical and left-handed people are more creative. Palm readers consider the fact that the left hand is connected to the right side of the brain and the right hand is connected to the left side of the brain. The left brain/right hand features logic, attention to detail, facts and realism. The right brain/left hand person shows intuitiveness and risk taking ability. Therefore, the palmist looks at both hands since they reveal two different aspects.
