Interpreting the meaning behind the lines in your palm is a significant part of palm reading. Reading palms requires an understanding that there are both major lines and minor lines. This article explains how to evaluate the different lines on a palm.
EditSteps
- 1Choose the hand for reading. In palmistry, there is the notion of an active hand and a passive hand. Your active hand is your dominant writing hand, leaving your passive hand as the other one. The passive hand is the one read for inherited traits; the active hand is read for any changes to the passive lines.[1]

- The heart line
- The head line
- The life line
- The fate line (not everybody has this line).[2]
- The heart line
- 3Interpret the heart line. This line can be read in either direction (from the pinkie finger to the index finger, or vice versa), depending on the tradition being followed. It is believed to indicate emotional stability, romantic perspectives, depression, and cardiac health.[3] The specific meanings are as follows:
- Begins below the index finger - unhappy with love life

- Begins in the middle - falls in love easily
- Straight and short - less interest in romance
- Touches life line - heart broken easily
- Long and curvy - freely expresses emotions and feelings
- Straight and parallel to the head line - good handle on emotions
- Wavy - many relationships and lovers, absence of serious relationships
- Circle on the line - depression
- Broken line - emotional trauma
- Smaller lines crossing through heart line - emotional trauma
- Begins below the index finger - unhappy with love life
- 4Examine the head line. This represents learning style, communication style, intellectualism, and thirst for knowledge.[4] A curved line is associated with creativity and spontaneity, while a straight line is linked with practicality and a structured approach.[5] The specific meanings are as follows:
- Short line - prefers physical achievements over mental ones
- Curved, sloping line - creativity

- Short line - prefers physical achievements over mental ones
- 5Evaluate the life line. This line begins near the thumb and travels in an arc towards the wrist. It reflects physical health, general well being, and major life changes (for example, cataclysmic events, physical injuries, and relocation).[6] Its length is not associated with length of life. The specific meanings are as follows:
- Runs close to thumb - often tired

- Circle in line indicates - hospitalized or injured
- Break - sudden change in lifestyle
- Runs close to thumb - often tired
- 6Study the fate line. This is also known as the line of destiny, and it indicates the degree to which a person's life is affected by external circumstances beyond their control.[7] This line begins at the base of the palm. Its principal features are:
- Deep line - strongly controlled by fate
- Breaks and changes of direction - prone to many changes in life from external forces
- Starts joined to life line - self-made individual; develops aspirations early on
- Joins with the life line somewhere in the middle - signifies a point at which one's interests must be surrendered to those of others
- Starts at base of thumb and crosses life line - support offered by family and friends
- Deep line - strongly controlled by fate
- 7Learn about the other significant lines on your palm. In addition to the four major lines (heart line, head line, life line, and fate line), there are several other lines that are worth noting and reading. These lines are as follows:
- Health line. The health line deals with material well-being as much as the physical.[8]This is especially so that when the life line may be faint or hard to see. If a person has very faint fate, fame, or success line, then the health line also plays a strong part in the development of material wealth.[9] The health line can be found extending from below the little finger, down across the palm, to the base of the thumb. Sometimes, it may even join with the life line. Some of the features to look for include:
- missing - the lack of this line indicates that the person will have few, or perhaps even no, health problems
- strong and undisturbed - strong business sense as well as the strength to work hard and make money
- wavy - potential health problems as a result of anxiety and nervousness
- broken - poor health will cause problems in business situations
- smaller lines crossing health line - prone to accidents
- extra lines branches onto the life line - sign of life-threatening situation in old age
- square encircling the line - a sign of protection, whether it be in the form of good medical treatment, or aid in solving a business problem
- break in the line to form a "donut" shape - a need for hospitalization
- a triangle formed by the life, head, and health lines - known as "the Lucky Triangle". This triangle signifies greater luck the broader its angle.[10]
- missing - the lack of this line indicates that the person will have few, or perhaps even no, health problems
- Fame line. The fame line reinforces the fate line.[11] The fame line influences the social rewards of success. This line, if visible, starts at the base of the hand, and moves its way up to below the ring finger, running parallel to the fate line.
- missing - one's future fame must be looked for in other areas of the palm; may still be successful but prefer to do without public acclaim.
- strong and clear - distinction and satisfaction with your life's work
- broken repeatedly - indication of the ups and downs of social recognition
- travels straight to the ring finger - likely to have fame in the arts
- starts at the head line and runs through the heart line - hard work and success late in life
- a separation at the end of the fame line (becoming two smaller lines) - success may be dubious in value
- ends beneath the ring finger in a star or triangle - spectacular success awaits in the fine arts field (acting, singing, dancing).
- ends beneath the ring finger in a square - a kindly patron.
- missing - one's future fame must be looked for in other areas of the palm; may still be successful but prefer to do without public acclaim.
- Marriage line. Relationships are indicated by the little line (or lines) that are located just below the base of the little finger. The closer the lines are to the base of the little finger, the later in life these relationships will be.
- several light lines - romances.
- strong and clear lines - marriage.
- numerous overlapping lines - affair(s).
- lines that meet but don't cross - children that will be born.
- fork at the start towards the back of the hand - long engagement.
- fork at the end towards the palm - separation (with or without divorce).
- line at the end that cuts the line off sharply - end to a relationship due to death or divorce.
- breaks that resumes with an overlap - separation with a later reunion.
- several light lines - romances.
- Money line. This line is not a direct indicator of accessing material wealth; rather, it represents the bearer's skill in acquiring riches, as well as giving some indicators of how to achieve this.[12]
- line from the base of the thumb to below the index finger, ending in a star - a natural talent for moneymaking.
- line from the base of the thumb to the little finger - wealth acquired through inheritance or family allowances.
- line from the base of the thumb to below the middle finger - money made in business.
- line running to the ring finger, cutting through the Fame Line - money obtained through luck and surprise.
- line from the base of the thumb to below the index finger, ending in a star - a natural talent for moneymaking.
- Travel lines. The travel lines are a major indication of the trips taken throughout your life that have had or will have a penetrating impact on your life. They can also indicate your desire to travel. [13] These lines generally start from the edge of the palm at the 'heel," opposite the thumb, and extend horizontally.
- intersecting the life line - a trip will be made under circumstances of health, or your health will be affected by a trip.
- crossing the travel line - danger, or problems within travel.
- a square encircles the lines - a sign of protection in your travels.
- breaks - possible delay in your travels.
- intersecting the fate line - travel will present a life-changing experience.
- intersecting the life line - a trip will be made under circumstances of health, or your health will be affected by a trip.
- Health line. The health line deals with material well-being as much as the physical.[8]This is especially so that when the life line may be faint or hard to see. If a person has very faint fate, fame, or success line, then the health line also plays a strong part in the development of material wealth.[9] The health line can be found extending from below the little finger, down across the palm, to the base of the thumb. Sometimes, it may even join with the life line. Some of the features to look for include:
- 8Read the minor lines. The minor lines can be found in most hands. They include the lines of opposition, intuition, escape, and influence.
- Lines of opposition. These lines can be found on the outside of the palm, between the heart and head lines. These lines illustrate the opposing forces that we all must deal with in life.
- Line of intuition. This line appears on the outer palm (at the base of the hand under the little finger). It illustrates strong insight. If you have this line you are an extremely sensitive, intuitive person and may have ESP (extra-sensory perception). The line can appear to curve into the palm or out to the edge of the palm. Either way, the meaning stays the same.
- Line of escape. This line is more towards the bottom of the palm, near the base. It often crosses the life line, and this crossing symbolizes the time in your life the following experience may happen. The line of escape illustrates an individual who escapes the problems of their life by indulging in their imagination. If it connects with the line of fame, they retreat into creative arts ease themselves. If the line of escape crosses with the health line, the person will resort to drugs and drinking. This may also foreshadow suicide.
- Lines of influence. These lines originate from the base of the thumb, and radiate out into the palm. Where they connect with other lines, they illustrate an important event. The much sought after influence lines are the ones that show how and where you will come into money, if it crosses the money lines.
- Lines of opposition. These lines can be found on the outside of the palm, between the heart and head lines. These lines illustrate the opposing forces that we all must deal with in life.
