Your Personality in the Shape of Your Hand

Defining the Hand You Are

It’s not just the lines that cross your palm that are important, but even the size and shape of your hand. Do you realize that the shape of your fingers and your thumbs, the prominence of your knuckles and mounds, even your fingernails say something about you? Consider the shape of your hand, they correspond to the element types – earth, air, water and fire – that define your temper and personality.

The Earth Hand. Hands are very squarish, where the width is equal to the length, and have shorter, boxy fingers; the nails are also square-set. The palms have fewer but deeper lines, the skin is usually coarse and thick in texture; colour is reddish and ruddy.

An Earth hand denotes level-headedness and a no-nonsense approach to life. They prefer physical to intellectual pursuits, and are often very practical people who work with their hands or outdoors. Examples of pursuits are landscaping and woodworking. Earth types are very responsible, prioritizing security and stability, with controlled emotions, calm and peaceful. They are often sceptical of fortune telling.

The Air Hand. Hands have long fingers and prominent knuckles. The palms are square-ish or rectangular with long, sometimes tapered, fingers, thumbs are low-set. The fingers are roughly the same length as the palm. Skin is often dry and a little pale; there are many lines but are lightly defined.

An Air hand is naturally curious and imaginative, with nervous dispositions and prone to anxiety and stress. The hands indicate high intelligence and communication skills, but these people tend to overthink things and are seemingly detached from the world around. Examples of air hand people are writers and teachers. They are social creatures but often internalise their feelings making them seem cold and not very emphatic.

The Water Hand. Hands have short oval palms and long, thin, flexible fingers. Skin is soft and supple and has fewer but deeper lines.

A Water hand is a sensitive and emotionally intelligent person with an artistic nature. They’re keenly attuned to their feelings and that of others which can make it tough coping with stressful situations. Imaginative and flexible, romantic and sensitive, they are interested in music, poetry and mystery. They are involved in work caring for others such as charity and spiritual leading.

The Fire Hand. Hands are of short, rectangle or square palms and short, squat fingers, palms usually greater in length than fingers. The shorter the fingers, the more stubborn the individual. Skin is flushed or pinkish and has many lines which are lighter in definition.

A Fire hand reveals an energetic, go-getter type, passionate, natural leaders. They make up their minds very quickly, hate to be unoccupied and are often inpatient. Highly individualized and inspirational, fire hands also signify an interest in socializing, entertaining and playing sports. They’re a force to be reckoned with but can also come across as overwhelming and as bullies.
