How to Do a Simple Palm Reading — Ohm Terra

0 How to Do a Simple Palm Reading Divination Jun 8 Written By Julie Hey guys! You’ve  been asking for more on palmistry, so I put together this post with some basics and hopefully you'll be able to know more about a person, or yourself, with just a handshake and eyeballing a few fingers. 

I chose to start with the hand reading because it gives you a nice overview of the personality of the person and it’s something that you can do without most people even noticing. You don’t have to ask to see their palm, you can just observe their hands from a distance to learn about the person. 

Even Alexander the Great would use palmistry as a way to gauge the character of his troops, so why not use this info to gauge the character of those that you spend time with?

By the way, if you want to know more about the history of palmistry, I put the link to my video on that in the description.

We are first going to be looking at the fingers. There are things like the length of the fingers in relation to the length of the palm and the characteristics of the knuckles that can tell you more about someone.

When you look at the hand, are the fingers short and stumpy in relation to the rest of the palm?

If so, this is likely someone who acts on their more primal instincts. This isn’t someone who is overly emotional or logical. They act like they’re living in survival mode all the time. They might even seem a bit more stressed out with a lot of stimulation or choices.

If the length of the fingers and palm are about equal, then this is likely someone who's more of a go-getter, they’re very smart and come from a family of people like them… think about families of doctors and lawyers.

If the fingers are thin and longer than the palm, this is your bookworm. These types are likely to find themselves studying or lost in their own thoughts. They’re the scientists, researchers, philosophers, and big-picture people. They’re looking to cure cancer or come up with a way for us to live on Mars.

This is doubly true if the person’s knuckles or joints are more pronounced. The bigger the knuckle the bigger the brain. (See! Size DOES matter)

But if your long-fingered friend has smooth fingers that aren’t very knuckle-y then they’re more likely to be an artist, designer, or creative of sorts. They’re more impulsive than the person with pronounced knuckles and don’t do well in situations where structure and control are important.

Now that we've covered the overall size of the fingers and their relation to the palm, let's dive into each finger individually and how the fingers compare to each other.

The pointer finger is known as the dictator and the finger of ambition.

Pointer and Middle Fingers about the Same Length

If it's about as long as the middle finger, then you can expect someone who is large and in charge. They handle being in positions of power and control with ease and seem to handle the stress of managing others without the stress.

If this finger is long and crooked, be on guard- they’re ambitious and likely out for what you have and will dig up your dirty laundry to get what they want. Think about politicians and elections where they're not out to bolster themselves, but out to tear others down.

Pointer Finger Shorter than Middle Finger

If the pointer finger is shorter than the middle finger, this person is always just barely doing what they need to do to get by. They don’t handle power and control very well. This is the low effort kind of person who only wants to do the bare minimum that they have to.

Moving onto the middle finger... if it's straight and well-shaped, this person has a very serious demeanor. Your jokes might not seem to phase this person and they might seem a little on the depressed/ unemotional side. They might be that very flat personality friend who just does the things without any real emotion.

But if the middle finger is crooked, then this person is going to have a lot of splaining to do. They always seem to find themselves in the weirdest situations and they have no idea what they did to get themselves into it in the first place. These people may find themselves struggling a little bit to figure out why all these weird things keep happening to them.

Ring finger is shorter than the middle finger

When its super long and straight, like longer than the middle finger almost, the person craves glory, celebrity status, and publicity. They’re the actors, politicians, public speakers. This isn’t someone who wants to be on the sidelines. They want to be center stage, all eyes on them. Think big Leo energy. That bold, outgoing personality. 

If the ring finger is crooked instead of straight, the craving for glory is only intensified and they might be a bit money hungry. They love spending money and having nice things, but they don't care about the cost, only the status that comes with owning the things. They might even have a gambling habit. This is not someone that you wanna lend your credit card to or hire as your accountant. 

The pinky tells us about our style of communication and is considered long if the tip of the pinky passes the nail bed of the ring finger. Those with a long pinky are amazing at speaking, they always know what to say and are able to easily command a room. 

But if it’s short, you might think this person is an introvert because they’re not very good at expressing themselves. They tend to be more quiet, but they may love to write. They find that writing is much easier than speaking and may have dreams of being an author or writer of sorts. 

Now if the pinky is crooked, their behavior is emphasized. Someone with a long and crooked pinky would make an amazing criminal or politician. They will tell you anything that you want to hear to get what they want. They’re amazing liars. But someone with a short and crooked pinky will find themselves wanting a lot more "me time" and may get lost in their writing.

Before we move onto the thumb, let’s discuss a few of the comparisons between the fingers for a minute.
