Palmistry: Love, Marriage, and Family

• Heart Line is broken or shows island-shaped markings (as shown in line A): The heart line reflects your emotional life. Breaks or island-shaped markings suggest emotional turbulence. If this appears on only one hand, the effect is usually milder.
• The end of the heart line droops, or branches droop to touch the head line (as shown in line B): This suggests being driven by emotion while overlooking reason, which can lead to emotional setbacks from poor judgment. The tail of the heart line relates to the outcome of love; a downward turn often points to disappointment in relationships.
• Marriage Line droops, forks, shows breaks, or is very short (as shown in line C): The marriage line sits below the little finger and reflects marital status. A straight, clear, sufficiently long line suggests a happy marriage; drooping, forked, broken, or very short lines can signal marital instability and emotional ups and downs.
• Family disaster line (as shown in line D): This line extends from the base of the thumb and crosses the life line; if it does not reach the life line, it is not considered a family disaster line. It points to changes within the family. When it appears near the beginning of the life line, it often relates to parents; when it appears around the middle, it tends to involve your own emotions and can signify sorrow.

If you notice the first or second signs above, it doesn’t necessarily mean your marriage will fail. Many couples still respect and cherish each other well into old age.

• One way to improve things is to avoid marrying too young, since youth can make it harder to handle emotional issues.
• Another is to keep expectations realistic and practice greater tolerance.

Taking these steps can make the journey of marriage much smoother.
