Scans might currently be a good source for measurements as the hands are usually pressed flat against a level surface.

PS. Lynn, I have checked my measurement on paper and on my
computerscreen - resulting in scores above the maximum score that you
just described. That leaves me only wondering if you have used the full
fingerprint seen for the 3th finger... but I assume that you have used
it. Hmmm... I guess then it must have been your printer that slightly
changed the format of the hand print. scratch

I didn't use the bit where the fingers have moved and there is a blob on top of the fingerprint.

OMG!! Martijn I have just noticed at the top of the print-out it says "fragil10.jpg Image 744x1065pixels Scaled (53%).

"Fragil10" may have given me a clue that the person has a learning disability!
Honestly I am not consciously aware of reading that before, I got the idea about learning disability from various hand features, but now I feel like a fool. I award myself a banana Intro to 5 element chirology - Page 7 510804

Now this is even more worrying, if I can't read hand shapes from a screen because screen resolution distorts them, and I can't read them from my printer because you reckon my printer has distorted it, then I have to question every reading I have ever done via computer !! affraid

Try these hands and see if you both come up with the same figures:

sorry I am replying to posts in random order. It has been difficult to keep up with it all this evening. I know since then you have changed your diagram Martijn.

Of course behaviour comes into it! (and that isn't me being subjective fire/water, especially since you re-classifed me as being fire/air Wink) You are classifying hands according to the elements, which is a symbolic way of looking at the hands that also includes interpretations based on the elements!

Seeing as how I measure across width of centre of palm, and you measure across metacarpals, I have no idea why my data fitted into your graph Laughing
(some of the measurements were from photos).

Case closed & solved:

Because I have used the - what you call - 'blob'!

(Let me explain: not using it would make the nail phalange of the 3th finger shorter than the nail phalange of 2nd finger - which is quite unlikely; and it would make the nail phalange of the 3rd finger hardly any longer than the nail phalange of the 4th finger... also quite unlikely because the nail phalange of the 3rd finger is usually clearly significantly longer than the nail phalange of the 2nd and 3rd finger)


PS. Lynn, now I can WITHDRAW my suggestion that in the printing proces something might have gone wrong. That takes away at least one more worry. cheers

and just look at the print! You can see the outline of the actual fingerprint. Logic tells you they have moved their finger and created a blob!

anyway at least you've given me the relief that my printer is not distorting pics.

these discussions would be so much easier if we were in the same room!

It looks like in the printing process the hand was lifted from the print, wrist first until the tips of the fingers touched the top leaving a slight mark/blob above each finger.

Don't worry Lynn... you're doing fine answering & responding.

Since the model now confirms the classification for your hands (based on your own guidelines) I have not much to add regarding the issue of behavior in the perspective of this discussion.


Regarding the other hands that you measured yesterday:

I think in general the width at the metacarpals is smaller compared to the width at the point near the thumb. However, I can imagine that in many cases it hardly becomes an issue since the difference concerns usually only a few mm's... my estimate would be on average about 3 or 4 mm.

But the effect of your mistake influenced ONLY the finger length to palm breadth ratio... so, at the end the effect of your mistake might turn out to be not very large.

Therefore I am looking forward to see you posting new measurements for palm breadth at the metacarpals. And then we can see in how many of those hands we find inconsistencies between your approach and the format, etc. etc.

Yes, I agree... that is an option. But in such cases I always try to figure out whether it is the most likely option. And in this case the length of the digits made me chose for the option that something else might have gone wrong during the printing process.

NOTICE: See also the shape of the index finger: a likewise effect is visible there. One could also 'project' your interpretation on the nail phalange of the index finger... but then that phalange would become even smaller than the nail phalange of the pinky finger. Etc. etc.

Therefore I have rejected the hypothesis that the distal part of the print is the result of an error.

(Anyway, the print does not play any role in the discussion about the elemental axes)

Intro to 5 element chirology - Page 7 Empty Re: Intro to 5 element chirology

Post  Martijn (admin) Mon May 26, 2014 1:09 am


This weekend I got involved in a (facebook) discussion focused on the role of the principle 'Chi' in 5 Element Chirology - after I become aware that the Taoist concept 'Chi' (or Qi) should not get associated to represent a single element, nor should it get associated to be an equivalent to the element 'ether'.

Now I am glad to see that inside this discussion Lynn used the term 'ether' to describe the 5th (spiritual) element in 5 element chirology. And I am happy with this since it would be a fundamental mistake to replace 'ether' for the concept of 'Chi'... because even though 'Chi can be described the underlying principle of all 5 elements together, this implicates that 'Chi' itself does not represent one of the elements in specific.

Intro to 5 element chirology - Page 7 Ayurved_elements

NOTICE: 'Chi' is the central principle in Taoist philosophy and it represents the essence of all there is (in Taoism 'space/emptiness' is described to to represent the 5th element next to earth - water - fire - air); interestingly, in Hindi philosophy likewise principles are used, however the equivalent for 'Chi' is in Hindi philosophy the concept named 'prana' - see the pictures above and below (Hindi terms for the 5 elements are only featured in the picture above, some other concepts from Hindi philosophy are featured in the picture below).

Intro to 5 element chirology - Page 7 Untitled

Finally, I would like to add that the concept of 'Chi' (or Qi) occasionally also gets associated with the Buddhistic philosophy... however, there we see a completely different approach featured with different dynamics regarding how the 5 elements interact (e.g. where 'air' gets replaced by 'wood', and 'space/emptiness' gets replaced by 'metal'), see picture below:

Long and sometimes hilarious discussion. So if the handshape is not clear, go on to skin texture. Some people say that lines don't tell very much, relative to the other factors. So I am a little bit reluctant to skip this one.

I was curious what indian palmistry would tell about handtypes, and to my surprise they are using the system of d'Arpentigny, or is it the other way round?
