Quick Guide to Palms: Heart, Head, & Life Lines

On your palm, there are three main lines going horizontally. The top one is the Heart Line. Curved means you’re sensitive, straight is direct. Darker is emotional and impulsive, while pale means you need reassurance. Any chains you see represent a broken heart.

If that line is close to your fingers, you have spiritual love. If it’s low, your emotions are tempered by reason. I have a narrow space between this heart line and the next one down, which is the head line. Narrow means introverted. If you have a wide space, you’re extroverted.

The middle line is the Head Line. Strong means a powerful mentality, while a thin line represents daydreaming and difficulty with decisions. Mine is long, meaning I have lots of interests. A short line represents specialists. My Head Line is curved, which signifies a creative communicator. A straight line is someone analytical with good concentration. At the end of that line, two lines fork off, which means I’m a writer.

The bottom of those three lines is the Life Line, a line of health and energy. If it’s prominent, then physical activities are more important to you than intellectual. If you have a broken line, your constitution is delicate or you had an accident. A wide semi-circle is a zest for life.

Branches up from your Life Line are successes, children, or relationships. A fork at the end of your life line means lots of travelling, or that your life can alter dramatically. A double, parallel line represents protection against illnesses or a long-term mate.
