The above two lines are enough to prove the importance of the hand. It is not only a palm but an abode of all gods, religiously and spiritually speaking. In fact,prophesying (future telling) is the highest attainment of our age because there is so much strife and struggle in the present time as it never was.
Astrology has many branches. Palmistry is important and authentic because its results are clear. In the other branches of Astrology, the moment of birth of a person has a very important role to play and if the moment of birth is not fully sure, then there will be difference in the results of the forecasts.
So, there are 4 fingers and 1 thumb in every man's hand.
Thumb - angushta , it has 2 phalanges
Index finger - Tarjani - three phalanges
The finger of Saturn - Madhyama in Sanskrit
The finger of Appolo - Anamika
The Little Finger or the Finger of Mercury Kanishttika
Five fingers represents the five elements in nature:
little finger ( Kanishttika) - Earth element - Mooladhara chakra
Finger of Appolo ( Anamika) - Water element - Swadhishttana chakra
Finger of Saturn ( Madhyama) - Fire element - Manipura chakra
Index finger ( Tarjani) - Air element - Anahat chakra
Thumb - Angushta - Sky element - Vishudha chakra
( The entire creation is a play of these five elements )
Venus mount comes under thumb
Jupiter mount comes under index finger
Saturn comes under Middle finger
Sun comes under ring finger
Mercury comes under little finger
Other mounts are Moon, Mars Dragon's head - Dragon's tail Harshala Neptune and Pluto
Now there are Seven Main lines (Life line, Head line , Heart line, Line of Sun, Fate line, Health line and Marriage line or Love line ) and
Twelve Secondary lines ( Ring of Jupiter, Line of Mars, Ring of Saturn, Ring of Appolo, Ring of Venus, Ring of Moon, Line of brilliance, Journey line, Children line, Bracelets, Casual lines , High post lines )
The Fate of a person enters as Prana shakti transmitted by various planets and enter our brain through our fingers.So above lines shows the flow of prana shakti , its relative importance in deciding the fate of the person , these lines indicate flow of energy between these mounts which represents planets.
Depending on the combinations of prominent mounts in the palm of a person , his character and fate can be evaluated,
Now , there are signs in the hand which appears upon these mounts and even in the phalanges in fingers
Lines, Several lines,Lines intersecting each other, Point, Cross, Star, Square, Circle, Triangle ,Net
Signs and symbols in hand : Upon mounts there appears Sign of Sun, Sign of Saturn, Sign of Jupiter, Sign of Mercury, Sign of Venus, Sign of Moon and Sign of Mars
And there exist Rashi symbols and the graha (planet) symbols in hand which helps in horoscope making when birth date and time are not sure ( there are 12 Rashi or houses in astrology).This is a topic of research in Palmistry as given in Gurujis Subodh hastha rekha
The other significant signs on hand include Triangles, Crosses, Points, Circles, Islands, Squares, Nets & Stars.
There exists around 240 Astrological combinations or Yogas which has been explained in the book Practical Palmistry available in Hindi and English by Dr. Narayan Dutt Shrimali ji
Now lets us try understanding the idea of depicting ones fate by painting lines on palm by the Creator
For example , Matsya yog or Fish combination exists if the mount of Venus is developed, the thumb is thin,long and slightly inclined back and along with it if the line of the Sun is ladder shaped
Such a person is correct and accurate fortune teller, he progresses by his wisdom.
Fish combination has Venus and Sun in it . Fish is connected with water element ( ring finger) and the mount below it is Sun . So, Fish is related with love ,since fish dies immediately as soon as taken from water, it wont live outside water . And Venus is the planet of Love and beauty. Fish has love for water in which it live ,it is related to swadhishttana chakra.Venus mount developed makes ones good in fortune telling .The source of prana shakti is Sun right? the basis in astrology.
Gandharva Yog or Combination of Musicians - If the mount of Venus in both the hands is fully developed and it has a mark of square on it, with the Sun line and the mount of Sun as prominent and clear, then it is called Gandharva yoga. Venus is below sky element and Sunmount is below water element right? So gandharva (demi gods in heaven) are related with water element and sky or ether as we see it . Arts ,music and highest shastras are known to the Gandharvas
The remaining grahas Mars is related with blood ,placed between the air and sky elements .Infact there is Progressive Mars and Regressive Mars in our hand and can be studied similarly based on elements which represent the chakras
Moon represent our mind and Sun is our soul.
Dragon's head is in the area below the Head line and are surrounded by the mounts of Moon, Mars and Venus. The fate line passes over this mount while going towards mount of Saturn .
Dragon's tail mount is located a little above the bracelets, dividing the mounts of Venus and Moon
Pluto is Indra. Then there are Harshala mount and Neptune mount as well which are studied along.
So , Palmistry can be studied in the perspective of Tantra with Chakras and five elements which gives us deeper insight into the character and fate of an individual . It requires constant study of many Hand palm pictures.
