    Some interpretations see the M as meaning that you can understand and judge the character of other people well. In other interpretations, the M means you have good leadership skills, are highly motivated and have a strong will to succeed in all that you do. An M may also indicate creativity, intuitiveness and an excellent ability to solve problems. From a more external viewpoint, it can be a sign of good luck. It is important to read more about this according to the type of palm reading you prefer, as the M can have different meanings depending on which hand it is located, whether or not it appears on both hands and which cultural background you’re making the interpretations from.

    Do you read left or right palm?

    The answer depends on which palm reading approach you’re using. One school of thought thinks it is best to read only the dominant hand (your writing hand) because this is considered to be your active hand and may have more lines to read than your non-dominant or “passive” hand. Check your own hands to see if this is the case. It’s the approach this article has adopted. However, there is another school of thought that says it is important to read both hands, as the left hand reveals your potential (what God or the universe has blessed you with, such as talents, abilities, etc.), while the right hand reveals what you’ve achieved from that potential (what you have acted on, made the most of, done with your life so far, etc.). You’ll need to make the decision for yourself which approach fits best.

    Staff Answer
    The love line is also known as the heart line. It is the line that is found above the head line. It begins from the edge of your palm under your little finger, then goes horizontally across your palm and finishes under your middle finger or forefinger. You can learn how to interpret this line by reading step 4 of Method 1 above.

    It is not possible to read people’s minds in a direct sense but you can observe their body language and make careful assessments based on actions, words and signals. You can also go by prior behavior (although people can and do change, so this must be accounted for). Or, you can go to the old standbys of mentalists and magicians and focus on the commonalities we all have to How to Make People Think You Can Read Minds or to How to Read Minds . This latter option picks up on subtle “tells” we give away subconsciously, as well as picking up on things said and matching these to the common ways many people think and react.

  • Question
    Can you really depend on palm reading?
    Community Answer
    No. More often than not a palm reader will make vague enough statements that they could apply to virtually anyone, or the person getting the reading will twist logic to make it apply to them if they want to believe. DO NOT rely on divination readings (although it IS fun and exciting to try).

    What do branches going downward from the heart line to cross with the head line mean?

  • Question
    What if I have only three lines?
    Community Answer
    As the article suggests, not all people have a fate line. Many people only have the heart, head, and life line. There is no cause for worry if you only have three major lines.
  • Question
    What does it mean if the life line is cut and joined again?
    Community Answer
    See if there are multiple life lines. Multiple life lines indicate extra strength and vitality. A break in the life line means a sudden change in lifestyle or interruption. If the life line is broken on both hands, this may indicate a serious illness or injury. Circles in the line, or a chained line, indicates that the person is susceptible to many health problems and that their life may take them in many different directions.
  • Question
    Are there lines to show that you have a guardian angel?
    Community Answer

  • Question
    What does it mean if my two hands have very different markings from each other?

    Why does my palm have four lines?

    It's hard to say, because there's no description of these lines. Having less lines is generally better, but the question is too vague to be more specific.

    What does it mean if I don't have all of the lines described in the article?
