Indian Method To Calculate Good And Bad Years Or Timing From Phalanges Of The Fingers
Timing from phalanges on the fingers
Another method for seeing good or bad years is from the phalanges on the fingers. Start counting on the right hand from the 3rd phalange (S.K. Das counts from the 1st (nail) phalange as shown in fig. 8) of the mercury finger and end on the thumb, as shown in fig. 9. This would cover from 1 to 15 years. From 15-30 years can be counted by going over the left hand likewise. The years from 30 to 60 can be checked by repeating the above process again from the right hand and going over to the left hand. Some authors have advised that the counting for women should be started from the left hand, rest of the process remaining the same.
Any horizontal lines, cross, dot, grill or unfavourable mark on the phalange would indicate a bad year. Any good signs, such as vertical lines on the phalange will indicate a lucky year.
However the following years are considered to be unfortunate for every one: 29, 30, 34, 35, 37, 39, 40, 44, 45, 49 and 50. If the horizontal bars are found on these years, they are particularly bad.
Since, timing the event from the palm is not a very accurate method, this author advises the student to ask the age from the client himself at which ascertain important event in the past may have taken place in his/her life. Then this point can be taken as a reference, for this person, to extrapolate the future events.
