    How to Read Palms: Life Line

  1. Step 1

    Look to see if the life line is deep and long. This means you are vital and rarely get sick. It also means that you are very energetic and enjoy a bold life. A shallow, short line means that you have a weak immune system and are probably more prone to worry.

  2. Step 2

    Watch for a large, swooping life line that swoops far away from the base of your thumb. This means you are adventurous. If your life line swings close to your thumb, you are more cautious.

  3. Step 3

    Check for a chained life line. This means you have a life full of health issues. According to ofesite.com, people with allergies often have this type of life line. A chained line can also mean you live in constant worry or apprehension.

  4. Step 4

    Look for a break in your life line. This means a life-changing event. It could be an accident, a crisis or a great opportunity. There is no true way to tell if it is a good or bad situation.

  5. Step 5

    Look at the lines on your life line. According to ofesite.com, lines that extend up on your life line show that you have the ability to overcome problems with success. Lines that shoot down from the life line show that you have difficulty overcoming problems.

Tips & Warnings
  • Understand that palm reading is simply entertainment, and that you should not take these readings to heart.

on 7/27/2009 The heart and life line touch at base of my palm and have itched for over two weeks. Any significance? I use lotion regularly and it is not dry to the touch. It is only on one hand. Does one hand mean more than another? LadyLakeMI
