Put your hand flat on the table, palm up. Now look at the little cushion of flesh right under your index finger. That’s the Mount of Jupiter. It’s the easiest mount to find and, for my money, the most interesting one to read. Why? Because Jupiter is the ambition mount. It’s about confidence, leadership, self-respect,...
A working reading, in the Western lineage I want to start by telling you how a Mercury Line reading really goes, because it isn’t how the popular posts describe it. Someone sits down. They turn their hands over. And I don’t look at the Mercury Line. I look at the little finger — its length,...

Western Palmistry — Palm Lines Series Everyone who learns a little palmistry ends up doing the same thing: flipping their hand sideways, squinting at the edge below the pinky, and counting the tiny lines there. Because those little lines are the ones that supposedly hold the answer to the question we all secretly want answered...
There’s a reason so many people who feel drawn to the stars and the lines of the palm feel drawn to stones as well. All three are ways of slowing down and paying attention — of treating the world as something that speaks, if you’re willing to listen. Crystals belong in that same quiet family....
Western Palmistry — Palm Lines Series You’ve read your heart line. You know how you love. Now look one line lower — at the crease running horizontally through the middle of your palm. This is the head line, and in palmistry it is read as the map of your mind: how you reason, how you...
