03/10 - The Line of Life

T H E L I N E O F L I F E









The line of Life (Life line) is the line which shows the longevity, health, temperament, success, accidents etc. Please see the picture above which shows the main lines in the palm and the fingers. The picture is taken from the book "Language of the Hand" by Cheiro, very famous author of Books on Palmistry.





The line of Life is one of the most important lines in the hand. It starts from below the Finger of Jupiter and encircles Mount of lower Mars and Mount of Venus and reaches the base of the hand.

The line of life should be long, narrow and deep without breaks, crosses and irregularities. Such hand indicates long life, good health and vitality.



When the line of life starts from below the Mount of Jupiter (mount below the index finger) instead of from the side of the hand, it shows that the life has been one of ambition.



If the line of life is closely connected with the line of Head at the start, the life is guide by reason and intelligence. The owner of such hand will be extra sensitive with anything which affects him.



If there is medium space between line of Life and line of Head, the person is more free to carry out his plans and ideas. It denotes energy and go-ahead spirit. If the space is very wide, the person will have too much confidence. It also denotes that the person will be foolhardy, impulsive, hasty and lacks reasoning.

When the line of life, line of head and line of heart are joined together at the commencement, it shows that the person runs into danger and catastrophe. This also shows that the person lacks his perception in his dealings with others.

Many persons have their life line with lots of chains at the commencement of the line. This shows that the persons had suffered bad health in the initial part of his life. If there is a break in the life line, but another line starts near it but before the first line ends. It shows that there will be accident or ill health which may threaten life, but the person will survive.

There is an instance where a person came to show his palm to me. His life line was having a break and just before this break there was another life line starting. There was no such break in his left hand. This sign was seen in his palm almost the age at which he was showing his palm. I told him that he might have already met or would meet an accident or will have ill health very soon which may threaten his life, but he will survive. I told him that he was about to die at that age, but would be saved. He was surprised with this prediction. He told me of the instance that took place in his life few weeks before.

He told me that he was having a boy of about 15 years as servant in his house. He was not happy with the boy as he was not working properly. One late evening he told him to leave the work. As the boy was young he advised him to leave the house next morning as it was very late hour for the boy to go out of the house. His family consisted of his wife and two sons. The sons used to sleep in the adjacent room. He normally would not bolt his room from inside as the two sons aged 5 and 9 would come in their room during the night. That night however he did latched his room from inside.

Somewhere during the night he heard the scream of his younger son. Both husband and wife went to children's room. They saw that the servant was sitting on top of the elder son and was slitting open the son's neck with a knife. The younger son was struggling with the servant and was yelling for help. This person overpowered the servant. The servant was handed over to the police immediately.

Next morning the servant confessed to the police that he wanted to kill the master as he had removed him from the job, but since their room was locked, he decided to kill his elder son,
who was sleeping.

The line of life showed that the person escaped the death though his body was not even touched by the servant.

I will narrate more instances in the next blog.


Bye, bye.
