The Life Line
The Life line is one line you will always find on the palm. It begins on the side of the palm between the thumb and index finger and heads down the middle of the palm along the base of the thumb. Usually, but not always. It is distinct. Sometimes it is doubled or even tripled. It can be quite short or very long. All these characteristics have special meaning – as do the markings along it.
The life line easy to identify because of its position on the palm – pushing the extended thumb toward the palm will make it clearer. It serves as a guide to the identify of the other lines on the palm, which sometimes can be recognized exactly only by their relation to it.
The life line has much to do with vitality as well as length of life. Think of it as representing the total life force – the effectiveness with which you approach the world. Depth and strength in this line can be as significant as length. An extremely long life line does not always mean a long life: a fairly short line may not mean an early death
Special markings along the life line show events that affect the life force for better or worse. To know when in life these events take place – so you can be prepared for them and perhaps ease misfortunes and take better advantage of good periods- divide the life line into time zones this way:
- the start of the line at the side of the palm shows infancy: irregularities here show the usual childhood diseases - Evaluate the life expectancy. A line that swoops down to about an inch above the base of the palm is normal. It shows a life expectancy of about 70 years in a woman, 60 to 65 in men. A much longer line, unless broken, shows survival to extreme old age. A shorter but strong and deep line should be considered worth survival past middle age
