Palmistry: A Brief Look at the Language of the Hands
By Cassandria Hanna
There has never been conceived or made by man any instrument, machine or contrivance capable of such a diversity of usefulness as the human hand. Nothing has ever existed with such infinite adaptability to various needs or capable of being trained to such degrees of dexterity and versatility. ~ William G. Benam, The Laws of Scientific Hand Reading
Palmistry, the ancient art of hand analysis, is the science of reading people’s hands in order to gain insight into their lives. The hand has lines and markings that tell a story in great detail. In palmistry, this story or road map of signs and symbols is an unsurpassed tool in understanding the potentials and limitations as well as the character and emotional personality of the hand that is to be read. The symbols or markings on the palm do not remain the same; they will change as our lives change.
People are fascinated with palmistry because they can see the evidence right before their eyes. I became interested in palm reading after taking a course in parapsychology. This course of study included palmistry, numerology, I-Ching, and astrology. I continued my studies with palmistry and developed great interest. It was amazing to learn that there are secrets hidden in the palm.
There is tremendous satisfaction in the study of palmistry. This highly respected art form was part of the culture of many ancient civilizations: Chinese, Hebrews, Egyptians, Hindus, Buddhists, Tibetans and Babylonians. Great minds such as Aristotle, Plato, Karl Jung and Julius Speer have all used palmistry in their work.
There was a period in time when palmistry fell out of favor. Due to its’ detractors, primarily the Christian Church, who inflicted the greatest damage to the reputations of hand readers in Europe, palmistry was branded devil worship and forced underground. A revival of palmistry began after the Renaissance Period (1600) and continued into the 20th century.
