Palmistry
Palmistry, or chiromancy, interprets the lines and shapes of hands symbolically.
How to approach it
A reading begins by recognising a sign and relating it to a question. Describe the observation first, then explore its associations: the image opens a reflection rather than imposing a conclusion.
An important distinction
Names such as «life», «head» and «heart» belong to that symbolic language; the lines do not measure years of life.
An example to explore
A «heart» line can prompt reflection on expressing affection without diagnosing your health or someone else's.
Taking the idea further
To explore further, compare the related concepts and note differences in material, procedure and interpretation. If you open a related tool, read its own rules; sharing a symbol does not mean carrying out the same practice.
