What is the meaning of a fork at the end of the Head line?
This fork is on or leading to the mount of Mars, it shows stratagem and ability to see all sides to a question, especially if the line of Fortune is clear.
If the line is joined to the Life line at commencement, this fork indicates a love of literary work, also originality and much imagination: if the fork is a long one and curves towards the mount of Moon, then the subject will be fond of occultism, will possess clairvoyant and intuitive gifts, with accuracy in dreams, presentiments and first impressions, will also be ac lever sophist and always able to emerge from a dilemma, and fond of controversy and argument; if, however, this sloping line forks almost to the wrist it shows a danger of self-delusion and that the imagination has a fatal influence over the life.
When one end of the fork goes straight across the hand and the other comes downwards to the wrist it indicates good practical sense of an idealistic and poetic nature, for it combines a good strong Head line with the influence of a good mount of Moon. If one end of the fork touches the line of Heart, and the other goes onto the mount of Moon, it shows an affection so strong that intellect, reason and all else is sacrificed for it, and if the Fate line is also stopped by the line of Heart, ruin of body and mind has followed this strong love.
