Before reading your palm, you should choose the right hand to read. There are different schools of thought on this matter. Some people think the right for female and left for male. As a matter of fact, both of your hands play great importance in hand reading. But one is dominant and the other is passive. The left hand usually represents what you were born with physically and materially and the right hand represents what you become after grown up. So, the right hand is dominant in palm reading and the left for supplement.

Markings and symbols in palm have meanings that can be distinguished independently. Some symbols are very destructive, such as stars, islands, chains, spots, etc.; some usually have good meanings, such as triangle and square. Besides considering the marks’ location, their meanings should also be interpreted by reading other lines or mounts around.

Mounts, which are bumps of flesh on your palm play a very important role in palm reading. According to the Chinese palmistry, there are seven mounts for a person with each named after a planet and stands for different characters.
