Palmistry: as old as History

Palm reading was first found in Indian civilization and then spread to China and Tibet. Soon it became a practice in Egypt, Israel, and ancient Babylonia. It captured the popular imagination of the times as spirituality, religion, and the occult ran deep in the psyche of the cultures.

Palmistry also entered Grecian society. It was said that Alexander the Great had his soldiers’ palms read to ascertain their character and loyalty. It caught Europe’s imagination as well. However, in the Middle Ages, it was banned in the continent when the Catholic Church suppressed it, calling it a pagan evil.

Revived around the mid to the late 19th century in Great Britain, proponents wrote articles and books on the subject and attracted famous celebrities of the time, like Mark Twain and Oscar Wilde, among others. It has become a recognized science, this art of foretelling one’s future via the lines and creases in the palm.

Palm Reading in the New Millennium

Now practiced all over the world, palmistry has gained stature and respectability. There are schools offering its study, publications solely devoted to the art have considerable circulation, and also, associations of like-minded advocates that include palm readers themselves have become legitimate and sought-after resources of the science. Some individual practitioners gain celebrity status. These days a well-trained and knowledgeable palm reader is an available friend and guide.

Also known as the psychic hand, the etheric hand corresponds to the elemental nature of the cosmos. This rare hand shape resembles a more extreme version of the air hand. If you have exceptionally long fingers and nail beds coupled with a very long palm, you may have an etheric hand.

The lengthy palm of the etheric hand is associated with a deep, introspective mind. The long fingers indicate an aptitude for retaining detailed information. People with etheric minds are often good at learning by themselves. They are also the most inclined towards psychic abilities; an etheric-handed individual may find it easy to transcend the barrier between the physical and spiritual realms, and will likely be a good medium or astral traveller.

If you do not have an etheric hand, this does not mean that you are incapable of experiencing the metaphysical. There are many other signs that may point to a psychic inclination. Visit the Psychic Shop in Lynnwood for a palm reading to learn more about your own psychic potential.

A water hand is similar to an air hand in that it is long. Unlike an air hand, it is characteristic of a damp quality that will be apparent upon touch. The palms will generally have a soft, round appearance with high mounts. Occasionally, there may be a pink coloration on the palm mounds and fingertips.

People with water hands are known to be highly emotional. They frequently exhibit superior compassion and a heart of gold. They are also highly susceptible to the currents that run through their lives. Negative emotions can lead them down a self-destructive path if they fail to develop the protective shell they need, while positive emotions can make them some of the best friends you can have. Generally, these people are the natural empaths of the world, prone to discomfort with crowd situations often struggling with psychic claustrophobia.

Earth hands are generally fairly easy to identify. These are the thick, bear-paw like hands with large, expansive palms and wide fingers. Often times, they may be a little rough, possibly even dry and chapped in appearance.

The wide palms of Earth hands are attributed to a reflective mind. People with such hands are likely quiet, though not necessarily shy. They are akin to the earth in the way they apply their energies: steadily, reliably, and quite possibly resistant to change. Earth-handed people are known to be sensible and practical, good at getting the job done with a “no nonsense” approach. They are attracted to professions that let them work with their hands. Some will even claim that their hands work by themselves. Not a particularly emotional group, they are the least likely to be attracted to psychic phenomena.

A fire hand is defined as one with a wide, expansive palm, often boxy in appearance. The fingers of a fire hand are short, and sometimes have a stubby appearance.

The shorter palms of a fire hand are seen by a palmistry expert as a sign of a fiery mind, hasty in its decision-making. Your short fingers are often the sign of a stubborn nature. If you have fire hands, your strengths are likely in your passion and daring impulses. You may be a charismatic person prone to brilliant, fresh ideas. Unfortunately, your passions may be a fickle and fleeting phenomenon. If you cannot keep your focus, you may find that you are frequently guilty of not following through with your projects.

Fire-handed people tend to excel as salesmen, public speakers, and other jobs where their quick passions and their easy ability with people are a merit. To learn more about your palms, contact the Psychic Shop for a palm reading in Lynnwood.

An air hand is long and narrow. Such hands will often be paired with long nail beds and a long palm. Elegant and graceful, these are the hands of a hand model.

To a palm reader, the mental energy of an individual is known to originate in the wrist and move up the length of the hand into the fingers. It is here that this energy pours out into the world. We therefore recognize the long palm of the air hand as indicative of a strong mind, one which devotes significant time lost in thought. If you have an air hand, you may be thoughtful to the point of restlessness. You are a self-studier, moving quickly through life, gaining expansive knowledge in many fields. Of the five different hand types, you are the most likely to gain an aptitude for psychic phenomena.

The tourmaline is a remarkable group of stones. Wonderfully complex in their molecular structure, they are known for being the most versatile gemstones on the planet. No other stone comes in as many different colors; you can find tourmaline in anything from black to colorless, and from translucent to transparent. Many stones feature two or more colors, like the covetable watermelon tourmaline with its red, white, and green hues. There are even examples of tourmaline that will appear as different colors, depending on whether you are viewing them in natural or artificial light.

It is the great diversity of the tourmaline that has earned it its reputation for fostering flexibility, tolerance, balance, and understanding in our lives. When you consider a tourmaline, remember the impressive complexity of its molecular structure. In the same way that it is this complexity that gives the stone its exceptional properties, we can understand that our own flexibility and tolerance should come from a richly developed mind.

Lapis lazuli has been recognized as a stone of great power since ancient times. In many circles, it was valued more than gold. The Egyptians used to bury their dead with a lapis lazuli scarab to offer them protection in the afterlife. Some believed that dreaming of the stone foretold faithful love. Others associated it with mental clarity and a greater connection to the mystical world, using it to help make oneself a channel.

When pondering a lapis lazuli stone, consider its composite nature. These stones are not a single mineral, but rather a combination of lazurite, pyrite, calcite, and traces of other minerals. Try to imagine the universe around you as resembling this stone, with the easily perceived reality imbued with strands of deeper reality subtly running through it. You can use this mental image as a catalyst to heighten your psychic sensitivity and meditate on a higher level.

We’ve all heard stories about animals doing extraordinary things. Perhaps your cat always seems to know you’re about to come home, or your dog seems to be tuned in to your thoughts and feelings. Some people have even theorized that many animals possess a psychic sensitivity, one which humans may have been more in-tune with before our more complex, conscious thought began to cloud our instincts.

One of the best cases for this theory is the incredible journeys that many animals have been known to take. Some pets have been observed to find their way home from exceptional distances, with no logical way of knowing how to get there. On a grander scale, certain species make regular trips that cannot be fully explained by science. Such creatures include the homing pigeon and the monarch butterfly, the latter of which passes several generations before returning to a single, specific tree.

If animals do indeed possess a psychic sensitivity, our takeaway should be that we, too, are capable of such amazing feats. Talk to the Psychic Shop for a palm reading in Lynnwood today.

Do you ever get the sense that you can know something about a person or object simply by making contact? This is not entirely outside the realm of possibility. Among the psychic community, this is a phenomenon known as psychometry, the art or “reading” a subject by touch.

Quantum theory has theorized that the past is not lost to us, but rather accessible via quantum entanglements. Examples of this phenomenon have been observed in recipients of organ transplants, who took on memories or even personality traits of those who donated their new parts. Some psychics practice to harness this power so that they can read an object at will, gaining valuable knowledge about its nature or past.

To experiment with your own psychometry, try sitting in a comfortable, quiet place, and have somebody place an unknown object into your hands. Clear your mind, and listen to whatever first impressions you may receive. It is important to trust these impressions, even if they appear strange or meaningless; it may take time before you can properly interpret your readings.
