There is a saying that the right hand is for females while the left hand is for males in palmistry. This is because the left-hand side is associated with males and fatherhood and the right-hand side with females and motherhood in Chinese traditions (e.g. marriage license photos, wedding seating…).
In mainstream palm reading, gender traditions are ignored. It is believed that the right hand - the dominant hand for most people — represents now and the future, and thus can be changed with time and experience, while the left hand represents the past and traits the person was born with.
It is more meaningful to take the right hand, unless you're left-handed, as priority in palmistry, though the hands of most people are symmetrical (with subtle differences).
The first impression of the palm (given by the five major lines) tells you the general picture. A bright palm color with clear palm lines reflects good luck in recent days.
Now stretch out the palm and let's read the five main lines one by one.
To quickly check what your palm lines tell you, you can also get your palm reading result with a few taps here.
1. The Life Line — the Longer the Better
The life line is the line that extends around the thumb. It is usually in an arc. The length of the life line has no relationship with how long a person lives. It reflects one's health and physical vitality.
If the life line has a big arc and it looks clear, it means the person is energetic and vibrant. The longer the life line the better. People with a long life line are usually good at sports.
If the life line has a small arc and is near to the thumb, it is a sign that he/she easily gets tired and exhausted.
If there is more than one life line, this also indicates that the person is very full of life.
If the start of the life line (near the thumb web) is broken, he/she is/was usually sickly during childhood.
If the end of the life line (near the wrist) looks frayed, he/she should pay much attention to health problems when getting old.
If there is a circle (like an island) in the line or the line is cut somewhere, he/she might get hurt physically or be in hospital. The size of the circle reflects the seriousness of the illness/injury.
If the life line is straight, cutting across the palm parallel to the head line, he/she is brave and usually very outgoing.

2. The Heart Line (Love Line) — the Longer the Better
The heart line, sometimes called the love line, is the line stretching across the hand directly under the fingers. The heart line reflects things related to the heart, like feelings, reactions, emotional control, etc. The longer and straighter it is the better.
If the heart line is short and straight, he/she has little interest in expressing love or romance.
Do first loves come back?
It's a great story, but it's not really all that unusual. According to a study by a Cal State University professor, former sweethearts who meet up...
If the heart line is long, he/she will probably be a good lover — sweet, understanding, and romantic.
If the heart line starts from the index finger, a happy love experience is predicted.
If it starts from the middle finger, it means the person usually thinks more of themself than their beloved.
If the heart line starts between middle finger and ring finger, he/she will easily fall in love.
If the heart line has a big rise and fall, he/she will probably fall in love with several people. Each love story will usually last short time.
If there are one or more circles on the heart line, the heart line is divided into several sections, or there are some short thin lines crossing the heart line, it usually means he/she is not very happy with his/her current love life.
3. Money Line (Fate Line) — Clear and Straight is Good
The money line, also called the fate line, is the line that stretches from the wrist to the middle finger. It reflects one's fortune and career.
If the money line and the life line start from the same point, that person is usually ambitious and has strong self-confidence.
If there are two money lines, he/she could have two jobs together or a side business.
If the money line looks clear and straight, it usually means a good and lucky future. He/she usually doesn't need to do much to change his/her life and life is stable.
Some people's money line is divided into two or more sections. It means he/she will probably change jobs frequently or his/her life/career will have big changes.
If the money line is short, it means he/she might stop working before getting retired.
4. The Head Line — the Clearer and Longer, the Better
The head line, reflects a person's intelligence and mentality. It usually starts between the index finger and thumb (below the love line) and then stretches to the other side of the palm, looking like it's dividing the palm in halves.
The clearness, thinness, and length of the head line reflect mental concentration and cleverness.
A big arc of the head line tells us that he/she is rich in creativity.
A short head line usually means one has more chance of physical achievements than mental ones.
If there is a circle on the head line, the head line is cut into two (or more), or the head line wavers, he/she has a comparatively bad memory, easily gets disturbed by others, and usually doesn't focus on anything for long.
5. The Marriage Line
The marriage line is a short line above the love line starting immediately under the little finger. It reflects one's romantic relationships and marriage.
Some people have only one line in this place while some have several lines. The number of lines doesn't mean anything. Just read the clearest one.
If there are two equally clear marriage lines, he/she needs to be careful of a love triangle.
If there are several marriage lines without a main one, his/her marriage life might not be enjoyable.
If the line veers up or is short and shallow, usually he/she will not get married or get married lately.
If the marriage line stretches as far as between the little finger and ring finger, he/she has high requirements when choosing a spouse.
If the marriage line stretches to the ring finger, it predicts that his/her spouse's family is rich and friendly.
However, stretching further than the third finger is not a good thing. Reputation and fortune might be affected by the marriage.

If there is an island (like a circle) on the marriage line, the couple might live apart for some reason for a period.
If the marriage line splits into two under the little finger, he/she should pay attention to love management, as the couple might leave each other.
Rare Palm Lines: The Cutting Palm
Cutting-palm (half-palm): This phenomenon occurs when the head line and the love line are so close to each other that it looks like just one thick line cutting across the palm.
There is a saying in China that: “A man with a cutting-palm will have a good career; a woman with a cutting-palm is usually very mentally independent.”
