Where Is The Lifeline On Your Hand


Life Line Meaning 

Hand Lifeline Meaning:


Short Life Line Versus Long Life Line

It extends from the edge of the palm above the thumb and travels in an arc towards the wrist. It is believed to represent the person's vitality and vigor, physical health and general well being. 

The life line is also believed to reflect major life changes, including cataclysmic events, physical injuries, and re-locations. 

Contrary to popular belief, modern palmists generally do not believe that the length of a person's life line is tied to the length of a person's life. 

If the head line is stronger than the life line it shows a person who is more mentally than physically active. 

Absence of Life Line on palm is very rare it indicates that the life of the subject is extremely precarious and death might occur at any moment.
