As there are many lines that, together, create numerous combinations, we have selected only the three major lines, which are the most apparent and, therefore, easier for a beginner to recognize. Much like snowflakes, where no two are alike, each of us is uniquely different. However, there are standard formations of lines, which we can aim to have in our hands. For example, each of the major lines is considered ideal when they are long, deep, round and originating and terminating in specific areas. These formations denote the most harmonious representation of that area of life.

For example, a long, round heart line in the dominant hand reflects a commitment to loving others without reservation. However, a short heart line in the non-dominant hand reflects a definite need to learn to be more compassionate. A karmic analysis of the heart lines in both hands reveals that we are consciously working towards the goal to become more loving.

However, in order to help our conscious resolve become a reality, we need to change our subconscious karmic roots. For that reason, in the Recommendations part of your analysis, we may suggest that you visualize one of your lines growing. For example, in the case of the heart line above, it would be good to visualize a longer heart line in the non-dominant hand equal in length to the heart line in the dominant hand. By learning to understand the significance of the lines as indicators of predispositions, you have the freedom to nurture your strengths and decide what changes you want to make in your life.
