Guest guest Report post Posted May 21, 2009 jai gurudev FINGERS Every person has five fingers including the thumb. As the thumb has very vital place in palmistry, its description and types etc. are given elsewhere. The discussion here is concerned with the remaining four fingers only. Some people have more than five fingers on their palms. But its discussion has been included in physique. According to Bhavishya Puraan, fingers should be round and not flat or square with brightness having no splits when joined together should have proper shape to prove them to be auspicious. On the contrary crooked shape, wavy fingers indicate a person in poverty. Garuda Puran gives more details of fingers. Straight fingers are good and helpful, indicate the persons long life. Thin fingers indicate a person of weak memory. The flat fingers indicate that a person prefers jobs at others rather than having his own business. Thick fingers show a person in poverty and if the fingers have backward bent, it is an indication of death of a person by weapon. According to Vivek Vilas, flat, thick and crooked fingers with splits between them show a person of poverty. The fingers having longer phalange and having many lines on the mount of Mercury are the symptoms of the person having many children and good health. According to Samudra Tilak, if the nail of the little finger reaches the top knuckle of the ring finger, the person is very rich though the cores are hardly found. According to Vivek Vilas if there is a split between the index finger and the middle finger the person is poor in his early life. If the split found between the middle finger and the ring finger the poverty meets in the middle of life, if the split is found between the ring finger and the little finger, the poverty comes in the end of life and if the splits are not found in the fingers, the person is found to be wealthy in those periods. Vivek Vilas specifically mentions that if the little finger reaches the nail/top knuckle of the ring finger, the person is rich as well as his in-laws are also rich. According to Naarad Samhita, if the little finger crosses the second knuckle of the ring finger and goes as high as the nail of the ring finger, the person can live for a hundred years. If the little finger reaches only the top of the second knuckle of the ring finger, then the person can live for 80 years, if less than that he can live for 70 years, still lower that is only the middle and the second knuckle of the ring finger, he may live for sixty years. Bhavishya Puran has specific mentions regarding the fingers of women. The woman whose fingers are round shaped and all the three knuckles of the fingers are proportionate, conical towards the top with soft skin is of good fortune and rich material pleasure. According to Skanda Purana (Kashi Khand), if women have more than three knuckles on any or more fingers, if fingers are thin, wrinkled, bony(fleshless) or very much red in colour or too small or having splits, then these women are found to be unfortunate. Their misfortune has been interpreted further as follows. The women having splits among the fingers and having the fingers too small or if the middle portion of her palm is so shallow or thick so as not to hold even a small quantity of water given to hold on it, the women cause poverty to her husband. In accordance with the western theory of palmistry, the fingers are classified in four groups. Extreme conical - having conical shape from the bottom of the fingers towards the top Conical - fingers having conical shape after the first phalange. Square - having all square shape from the bottom to the top of the fingers. Spread shaped fingers - having square shape up to the second knuckle of the fingers and then thicker or square shape at the top of the knuckle. Of the four mentioned above, the first type shows a person in his thoughts of actions and the next types show the persons faster in thoughts and actions respectively. 1) Extreme conical shape 80% 20% 2) Conical shape 70% 30% 3) Square shape 50% 50% 4) Spread shape 20% 80% The number of phalanges on the fingers are generally three. There are methods of calculating age and the person's fortune or misfortune by seeing the number of phalanges on the fingers and the type thereof. If any of the three phalanges of fingers has a cross or horizontal line, the person suffers from some unfortunate event in that portion of life (Of course it also counts on which finger it is). If all the fingers have more than three phalanges, the person is bound to go to jail for fights or thefts etc. if the palm has whiteness, the person goes to jail for political or similar reasons. If the phalanges of the fingers have rising on them, the person shows a matured intellectual growth and prefers to go by his own thinking rather taking advice from the others. He accepts the advice only after scrutiny of their feasibility.
