What this tool can’t tell you

What palmistry can’t tell you. Palm lines can’t tell dates, how long you’ll live, your health, whether or when you’ll marry, how many children you’ll have, or how much money you’ll make.Palmistry is a tradition for reflection, not a science. Is palmistry real?

  • This is a drawing of a typical right palm. Real hands vary a lot, and some have no fate line at all.
  • Mounts are read by how full they look. The book lines on the map describe a full mount; a flat one is read differently.
  • The two Mars mounts are named by where they sit, because books label them in opposite ways.

Questions about this tool

What are mounts (parvat)?

The raised pads of the palm: under each finger, at the base of the thumb and on the outer edge. Indian palmistry calls them parvat and names each after a planet.

Is this my palm?

No. It is a drawing of a typical right palm, the same for everyone. To see your own lines traced, use our app; the free web reading on this site opens soon.

Why are there two Mars mounts?

The books describe two: one near the thumb, inside the life line, and one on the outer edge. They name them in opposite ways, so we name them by position.

Where is the marriage line?

It is not on this map. It is the short line, or lines, on the outer edge of the palm below the little finger. No line can tell whether or when you will marry.

Does this map use AI?

No. It is a map of traditional meanings. Nothing you tap is sent anywhere.
