De qué trata este libro

Indian Palmistry is a compact handbook by Mrs. J. B. Dale, who died in 1921. It sets out how the art of the hand is practised in the East, as she presents it. The reader learns to look for destiny in the palm, the fingers, the nails and even the forehead and the feet. It is built as a working reference, with fifty-six numbered entries followed by rules, summaries and lists of signs.

You get a guided tour of the hand, from the raised pads under each finger to the lines that cross the palm. Every entry gives a name, a place on the hand and a meaning. The author also tells you how to look, which hand to read and how to place events in time. Let us begin with the mounts, the fleshy pads on which the whole system rests.

Read the mounts under each finger

The book opens with a numbered reference, and its first entries are the mounts, the raised pads at the root of each finger. Jupiter sits under the forefinger, Saturn under the middle finger, the Sun, also called Apollo, under the ring finger, and Mercury under the little finger. Venus lies at the base of the thumb, and the Moon rests on the outer edge of the palm.

Each mount has its own range of meanings. A prominent Jupiter points to pride, while a small one points to idleness. A clear Saturn suggests wisdom and prudence, and a very full one suggests sadness and silence. Apollo stands for art and intelligence, Mercury for invention, wit, writing, law and journeys, the Moon for imagination, Venus for love of beauty, and Mars for courage.

A special sign is the set of small concentric circles made by the pores of the skin. The author says such circles on a mount promise success in that mount's field, such as religion and marriage for Jupiter, or honor through the state for the Sun. Elongated circles bring weaker results, and none means little success. The lesson for a reader is that fullness, size and markings are weighed together.

That’s 1 of 4 key points.
