How to Read Your Palm Lines
Use Your Dominant Hand
Your dominant hand shows your conscious mind and current path
Look at Line Quality
Deep, clear lines show strong traits; faint lines show developing ones
Consider the Whole Hand
Lines work together—look at patterns, not individual lines in isolation
Important Reminder
Palm reading is for entertainment and self-reflection. Your lines don't determine your fate—they reflect tendencies and potentials that can guide personal growth and decision-making.
