Head Line

The mind plays a pivotal role in shaping our destiny, and the head line highlights our curiosity and intellectual pursuits. It is located at the center of the palm, and reveals the lessons we need to learn in life. The length of this line reveals the range of topics that you discover. If it is a wavy line, this indicates progressive thinking, while the straight line reveals more traditional thinking.

 

Heart line

It is located above the head line of the palm, which is the heart line. This line is also known as the love line, and it is related to your relationships, including romance, friendship, sex and commitment. If the line begins below the index finger, it means you are fulfilled by your relationships; however if it starts below the middle finger, it reveals emotional instability. Also, the depth of the line indicates the importance of your personal relationships, while the length corresponds to the time you usually spend in a relationship.

 

Life line
