Fate Line Is Stopped By Head Line And Heart Line | Palm Reading


It is an unfavorable sign if the Fate Line is stopped by the Line of Mentality. In this case, the progress of the Fate Line is arrested by the Line of Mentality.

Fate Line Stops At Head Line 

 It is an unfavorable sign if the Fate Line is stopped by the Line of Mentality. In this case, the progress of the Fate Line is arrested by the Line of Mentality. It is a principle of hand analysis that two main Lines should clash, but both lines should proceed favorably to their natural termination. 

The Line of Mentality also refers judgement, so such a formation means that the subject has made some blunder either in career or in finance Whether the subject recovers or not will be seen by the subsequent structure and character of the Fate Line. I have confirmed one case where a woman client trusted her brothers and was deceived by them in money matters instead of immediately withdrawing the money left to her by her husband on his death. 

She delayed, and with this gain of time, the brothers, by some foul means, secured the share due to her. In other cases the subject may have had to leave his job due to some major blunder on his part.

It is also unfavorable if the Fate Line is stopped by the Heart Line.

Fate Line Stops At Heart Line 

It is also unfavorable if the Fate Line is stopped by the Heart Line. The Line of Heart deals with emotions, and a Fate Line terminating at the Line of Heart shows that the subject will either suffer from heart weakness or make some wrong emotional decision. Both these interpretations are possible, so now we have to decide which interpretation will fit the subject. 

Examine the Vitality Line, the Health Line and the nails for health defects at the age the subject consults the hand analyst. If there are no confirmatory health defects, you can rest assured that this formation refers to some emotional sorrow or trouble due to unfortunate emotional involvements. 

In such a case, the subject may have an unwise affair of the heart, be deceived by relatives, or in general carry out some immature emotional decision. You w often find this on the hands of men and women who have an affair of the heart from which they find it hard to withdraw. 

In mos cases, you will find that the Fate Line is better developed in the inherited hand, as compared to the active, operational hand. This is not surprising as most people either do not fully develop the potential that is in them, or else they fritter away chances of improving in life by some character defect or by wasting their time on trifles.

Fate Line Starts From Life Line

Fate Line Starts From Life Line independent person
Fate Line from lifeline indicates person is independent and self-made but early life is drastic and under lots of influence of parents.  Struggle a lot in early life due to family restrictions and control but subject will get success on own efforts at age when fate line separate or starts from life line.

Subject will get portion or share from family property in middle age but if fate line starts from the end of life line then subject will get family property in old age (around 60s).

Also this type of fate line indicates that subject is family person and very close to family, caretaker and thinks a lot about family and parents.


Subject loves to stay at home, watching TV at home, small friend circle, home food instead of travel, eating outside, etc.


Meaning Of Triangle On Fate Line | Palm Reading

Triangles On Fate Line (Destiny Line) | Palm Reading

Triangles on the Fate Line are always favorable features. They refer to a period of heightened success for the subject. Generally, a triangle refers to financial gains expected or unexpected, as the case may be. 

The triangle need not necessarily be attached to the Fate Line. It can be beside the Line, on either side. The bigger and better marked the triangle, the better the effects. These are the various interpretations for a triangle on the Fate Line, which have been found to be true in practical experience:

(a) Promotion

(b) Passing an important examination

(c) Sudden wealth (e.g., gaining on the stock market)

(d) In general, feeling happy with life, feeling creative and at peace with the world, and

(e) A gain of property.

Should the subject be studying in a university or college and at the respective age a well-formed triangle is found on or beside this Fate Line, you can confidently tell him her that success in the examination is assured. 

Always give a favorable interpretation when you find a triangle on or near the Fate Line, and search for confirmatory indications to find out precisely what the correct interpretation is.
