some novice doubts!

ok....so i am totally new to the science of palm reading..js started a few months ago!

the questions that has been intriguing me since i read my first book is regarding the length of one's thumb...which thumb is exactly a large one? in wht respect i mean? of the books i found tht a large thumb is the one which reaches the first joint of his jupiter. but wht if the thumb is high set? should one compare with respect to a normal saturn?

and one regarding the age at which a serious relationship starts.
acc to modern palmistry the age should be calc frm the heart line...bt frm wht i have observed the age calc frm the base of mercury was usually the correct one!
if i am not wrong thts the vedic palmistry method!
so which one should i follow!

n yeah...! thank you so much for creating such a great site!

also like astrology do the mounts of saturn mercury and mars denote physics maths and chemistry abilities (respectively) as well?

Hello,
You can generally look at a person's hand and tell if the thumb is large or small without exact measurements, Using guides such as the one you describe only confuses matters. And regarding relationships, what do you mean exactly? The age which a serious relationship starts cannot accurately be predicted from the hand. I know an old couple with markings of a serious relationship at age 35-40, but they were married at 21 and have been for 65 years now!, so, none are correct, only estimates, sorry.

Your comment, Sari, intrigued me. I've notice an influence line on my partners hand located on the line. The location would indicate around 10 years or younger but the line has been created recently. What does this mean? Is it a past event that wasn't a big impact at the time but is important now?

Are you referring to a specific conjunction between these planets? Mars, in astrology, is the energizer and aspects to Saturn act as a sort of bi-polar reaction (the person may experience emotional highs and lows) and to Mercury it makes them very quick thinking, workaholic types. Saturn is associated with restrictions and authority. Mercury is the communication planet. Aspects to these planets can cause people to be hard workers, students or gifted intellectuals but I've never been able to look at someone's chart and say yup, they're good at math. Astrology is more emotionally based than anything else.

Hi Zeblethai
These influence lines can be any person, not necessarily a relationship. For instance, say if he had a person offer him a job, and this career became very successful for him, this line might be the 'boss' who gave him the opportunity. With regards the age of 10, did you mean that this line joined his fate line at that age measured on the fate line? What you say could be possible, I would like to see the image and take a closer look, it may actually be something else.

Hi Zeblethai,
It also depends on the timing method.May be in your system of timing it is 10 years ago, but in another timing method, it could be 10 years in to the future, since everyone here uses different methods.

@ Sari
k...thank u for your reply!
but me and my father both observed that age calc sys almost perfectly accurate!! from his hand to my sis's and 10-15 other hands i saw who act were in a serious relationship!

@Zeblethai
act i dont know much about astrology a friend studying astrology told me so !
i js wanted to know if these attributes can be associated with the equivalent mounts on the hands!

sorry sari, it the line is on his life line around the ten years mark. He said he had an awakening around this age, maybe this awakening has only started to be important. In regards to posting a pic, no can do he is not interested.

It's Benham that attributes skills for example math skills to mounts.. correct? Has anyone found this to be accurate?

If the thumb is medium setting then it should reach the middle point of the third phalange of the Jupitor Finger, If it is low set then slightly lower and if higher set then it should reach upto the upper edge of the third phalange. For proper illustration go through W.G. Benham's Book "The Laws of the Scientific Hand Reading". Now this for a normal length thumb and not large thumb. Large thumb has nothing to do with length. Large thumb such as murderer's thumb is called large for it is top heavy at the upper portion of the phalange and quite thick and a little hard. If the thumb is longer than the above description then you can call it long thumb, i.e. longer than normal and longer the thumb the more knowledgeable/wise a person is. I read somewhere a person having a thumb which is medium set and ends at the upper edge of the third phalange of the Index Finger is quite long and this would indicate that the person has wisdom, knowledge.

As for marriage age I never refer to relationship lines for calculation of the marriage age. It is only meant to confirm that the person will marry or have some serious relationship with opposite sex. For this the indications I look for is the Fate Line coming from Mount of Moon, Influence line parallel to life line, cross on Mount of Jupitor, Vertical Line on Life lines, any sudden change in direction of head line or life line or fate line or appearance of some new influence line. When a person marries something new has to occur in his life and it could be positive or negative too.
