What Palmistry Says About Women Who Are Likely to Become Mistresses

Previously, we noted that influence lines on the palm can trigger emotional ups and downs, often showing up as irritability. These lines appear on the inner side of the life line and run diagonally upward, crossing it. When they are broken or fragmented, their effect on mood is minor; when they are long and deeply etched, they are called "obstacle lines." Here, we examine a specific type of influence line, the "island influence line," which is considered particularly unfavorable for relationships. What is an "island influence line," and what does it signify when it appears on a woman's hand? Let's take a closer look.

An island influence line starts from the lower, inner side of the life line, and its tip forms an island-like shape. It suggests a tendency sometimes described as a "father complex," and it may be associated with involvement with married men (sometimes called a "mistress fate"). The idea is that there may be a subconscious attraction to older, more mature men, making it easier to slip into the role of a "mistress." This psychological tendency can be adjusted during adolescence: spending more time with peers, boosting vitality, and broadening one's experiences and knowledge can help. It is also important to note that if a woman has an "island influence line" and her heart line curves downward, she may be prone to complicated romantic entanglements and related troubles, so she should be especially mindful of her choices.
