Palmistry question and answers

A most brutal and passionate temper, a person to be avoided when his anger is aroused, especially when the hand is of the Elementary type and other signs of intellect are weak.

It shows a sensitive and impressionable nature, one easily affected and influenced by surroundings, whose nerves are very highly strung; but such a person possesses much intuitive perception and is idealistic.

This type, which is most frequently seen, indicates a decided char­acter, firm and stable, though not very obstinate.

The possessor of a Spatulate thumb would have a will so strong that nothing would serve to change his mind when once made up, for he would be absolutely obstinate even to his own hurt. If the thumb turns outward he will be generous, though im­pulsive in his generosity.

Inability to manage one's own affairs, no will power or reason. A person led by impulse, one who is like a feather blown hither and thither by every little gust of wind, dogma, or creed

In a proper development the thumb will reach to the Second joint of the First finger (that joint which joins the Second to the Third phalange) when the thumb is laid straight in a line with the front of the finger: according as it varies from this point so will the intellect and will of the person be inferior or superior.

It plays a most important part, and is called the Emperor of the hand, for without it we should be at a loss how to handle the many different tools which we use. In fact a well devel­oped thumb always accompanies an intellectual character.

The First phalange of the thumb is that part on which the nail grows, and it extends to the First joint; the Second phalange reaches to the Second joint; and the Third phalange, or base of the thumb reaches to the wrist, but owing to the important part which the inner base of the thumb plays in Chiromancy, it is not dealt with here and therefore the term "Third phalange" is intended to mean the outer part of the base of the thumb.

First, it is divided into three parts, corresponding with the three worlds. The top part or nail phalange represents the will, or the Divine part of the nature: the Second phalange re­presents the logic, or the Intellectual part: and the Third phalange, or base, represents the passions or the Animal part of our nature, and according to the different developments of these different parts so will the character be.

Yes, for when it is thus, the intellect is good and keen and the subject capable of carrying out his ideas in an intellectual manner.
