four years ago, i encountered a man in his late 50's whose doing this palmistry thing. it was my post debut party at the beach that i had this chance to have my fortune read for free.
i never really believed stuffs like that but i must admits in also thrilled at that moment of what the old man will have to tell me about my future, and lots of other stuffs about me... so gave it a try just to check if he can guess some personal info about me.
first, he ask me to right my name on his notebook. then he started talking about my attitude, things that im good at and he even gave me some personal advice. i was really amazed! everything he said about me was true. even my hidden desires and secrets hope that i never tell most people not even my bestfriends.
next thing he did was read (if i remembered it correctly) my left palm. he's been looking at the different lines and saying so many stuffs about my future, my health, including my lovelife. the funny thing is that he even guessed i had a mole in a hidden part of my body. (what's this some kind of xray vision? lol) Out of 4 things he told me about my future, 2 became excatly true and the other 2 was somewhat different but still related to what he said would happen. i didnt take it seriously at first i said it was mere coincidence.
5 months after, i saw him again in a nearby dormitory close to our house doing that thing again. i can even hear the girls gigling as if they are having so much fun having their fortunes read. out of curiousity, i asked the man to read for me again as he passed by my house. this time, i had to pay a small amount for his service. i never mentioned anything about meeting him before. and there again, he told me few things same as my first reading then add more revelations. i remember he told that my boyfriend at that time is not yet the one i'll marry and that i am still about to meet my future husband and he even gave a description. he also warned me of a bad thing to happen if i engage in a love tiangle or something like that...it was just in time that i was really encountering problems with my boyfriend, we also had 3rd party. and another shocking thing he said to me was " time will come you have to choose 2 important things in my life, do not be afraid or doubt the decision you have in mind coz it will be the right thing to do." months past, my boyfriend died a sudden death. then after that month later i met another guy whose now my husband. everything happened too fast. now were happily married for more than 3 years with two kids.
i had my palm read 4x up to the present and it seemed like im almost convinced. for the past few years, reevaluating evrything that happened in my life also on my other friends who tried it also, 94% of it has already happened.
what would be your opinion about it? do you think im just going crazy about this stuff? should i rely on these readings?
personally, i'm starting to get interested in astrology. is it wrong to believe on these things?

I think the palmistry is not true.................
If u just fold ur hands u can see the lines on ur hands are formed only where ur hands fold to form a fist....
but i think numerology is far much true

I think you should read Palmistry.I have seen all the 7 type of hands as pure and also in mixed manner. There are 7 mounds and 7 major lines. Just by seeing the hand from back side you can say many things about aperson. Ionce did it and the man was astounded.

Palm reading is just a way of people "reading" the person and telling them somehting vague enough to make sense to them. It's no more real than Tarot, Runes, fortune telling,etc. They are awesome scam artists but really the only help they provide is by paying attention to a lonely person and making that person feel understood.
A friend or family member can do much better good in real life.

yes maybe... i have had a very difficult situation in those times which is probably the reason why i was easily persuaded to believe these stuff is real. but do you actually believe in tarot, runes and the likes? i have tried getting a free membership in a site before where they offer free readings like these. its not like i believe what the reading says but i still try anyway. its free of charge

I think palmistry is a science and is genuine. I have found that its true in my case. I happened to ready my palmist many years ago. He was able to tell my past, about my education and up to what I will be able to finish education, whether I get a job or not, about my health, about my future, etc.
The person who read my palm was one of my friend. About 98% what he said was sucessful. He could even tell about relation and charachters of my friend correctly.
There are lots of books on palmistry. When we read these books and look at the hands of ours or our friends we are ablt to find somethings written in the plams are true.

this are also pre planned by god
one of my relatives had an interesting experience about it
one day he met one astrologer in one of his relatives house
that day he just showed his hand and whatever the astrologer said every word of his mouth turned out to be true
next time they met met accidentally in my relatives own house
till then some of his predictions had come true
but whatever he said this timenine of it came true
so may be this was god's wish
personally asking me i believe in them whenver they have something good else i treat it fake
so keep believing in good predictions

Well in my opinion it's not wrong to be intrested in knowing what is yet to come in future... not only this one can notice when we talk about the future, every one in the room get on to it... I have been myself reading hands and almost all of my prediction went ture.. to my surprice one of the prediction that i made in May 2003 to my relative went ture in Dec 2005. I dont do it any more...
But we must understand few thing...
(1) Future can not be predicted to 100%, yes it can be predicited to some extent.
(2) The lines in your hands changes it shape in every 3-5 Yrs depending on each individual.
(3) If you already know what going to happen then what the fun in living the entire episode..
We have taken birth as human.. all of us have the capacity to handle what ever comes our way... this reminds of a quote "You don't stop living when some one die, coz it's not your time to die yet". So having faith in what we do, whom we love, in our Aim for life......can help us more than any thing else.

Practicing these will have curses.I too know to read them. But I dont do it now.This can never be accurate. Most of them are guess work.Some people make a fortune out of reading the palm. Please keep away from them.

About Palmistry I will tell you a joke. Keep in mind.
Once I went to an Agent to get employment abroad. In our talks, I came to know that he reads Palmistry. I showed my hands and asked him whether I would go abroad. Immediately he replied going me abroad is in his hands and not in my hands.

I think many times they tell you things that you really already know and it amazes people to the point of belief.

I don't think it is wrong to be interested in these things.
My mom had her future told to her in the early 40's and everything came true.
My dad was told when I was 7 by a lady we were visiting that I would be married at age 17. Dad just laughed. I was married at 17. Didn't think anything of it until about 6 months after I was married.
My friend was told by some lady at a donut shop she would have 2 girls and miscarriage and then her boy. This was right after she had her first daughter. She now has 2 girls and the boy did come after the miscarriage.
So I say again there is nothing wrong in believing these things, because some are scammers and some are not. And if it interests you then that is all that matters.

both astrology and Palmistry are true sciences and have very ancient back ground. Read the book Language of the hand by cheiro you will find many interesting incidents mentioned there the most amazing is the life of Dr Mayer. You can lern astrology if you have the inclination for it.

Palmistry is now considered not less than a science and people have actually studied the lines of the palm and have made certain laws which if seen seriously do have a valid significance on the lives of people

sometimes we have nothing to do and turn out thinking so many things. sometime we reflect ourself asking what will happen to me in the coming days or the near future? that comes up the idea of why not ask for a palm reader. Well at first its sounds fun but later you will just make yourself worry of many things because that will bother you but dont get rely on that and not get serious with it. Although there is really a study of that reading the lines of our palm, that has meanings but we should not rely on that because we are the one who makes our fate. Things that happen after just merely coincidence. Few only are gifted on that reading the lines of our palm so be careful for those not because some are fakes and they just do it for income purposes.
