By comparing both hands, the dominant hand - the one we use to write - and the non-dominant hand, we can see to what degree we have advanced in depth and refinement of character. The non-dominant hand shows our past habits and subconscious traits. The dominant hand reflects what we are struggling to become, as well as a more conscious awareness of ourselves. Ideally, the hands reflect an evolutionary progress is taking place from the non-dominant to the dominant hand.
