What do the palm have?
This kind of study is called palmistry.

Palmistry according to accesspositive is reading the overall shape and formation of the hands which is one of the first clues to the character and destiny.

• 
  
• The square hand identifies the practical person, someone forceful, purposeful, and capable of achieving success.
• The tapering hand is likely to belong to an artist, a convivial, enthusiastic and sensitive soul.
• The spade-like hand appears to be in motion even at rest and denotes an energetic owner with need for positive actions.
• The pointed hand belongs to the idealist, the sometimes impractical lovers of beauty.
• The long hand, knotty at the joints, is that of a thinker, or philosopher.

Most people have a mixed hand, displaying features of two or more classic shapes.

Besides shape, there is also flexibility to be considered. Moderate flexibility tells of a reasonable personality, while great flexibility indicates unconventionability, and great stiffness shows stubbornness.

Historically, Palmistry, also known as chiromancy, is the practice of telling fortunes from the lines, marks, and patterns on the hands, particularly the palms.

Palmistry was practiced in many ancient cultures, such as India, China and Egypt. The first book on the subject appeared in the 15th century. The term chiromancy comes from the Greek word for hand (cheir).

Palmistry was used during the middle ages to detect witches. It was believed that certain spots on the hand indicated one had made a pact with the Devil. Palmistry was condemned by the Catholic Church but in the 17th century it was taught at several German universities (Pickover, 64). Britain outlawed palmistry in the 18th century. It is popular enough in America in the 20th century to deserve its own book in the Complete Idiot's Guide series.

According to Ann Fiery (The Book of Divination), if you are right handed, your left hand indicates inherited personality traits and your right hand indicates your individuality and fulfillment of potential. The palmist claims to be able to read the various lines on your hand. These lines are given names like the life line, the head line, the heart line, the Saturne line. The life line supposedly indicates physical vitality, the head line intellectual capacity, the heart line emotional nature, etc.

So, is it true and reliable or not... is actually depends on your own believe. Don't you think so?
