Palmistry basics and free online palmistry course with palm reading hand chart.
1. Free online palmistry course: Basic palm reading
This is the 1st of 3 pages in this basic palm reading course. In this introduction to
basic palm reading we show how the brain, nerves and lines connect in both reflexology and palm reading
using the palm reading hand chart. The other 2 pages of the course, "lines of palmistry" and the "palmistry
how to case study" can be reached from the menu to the right.
A homage to reflexology
In order to understand basic palm reading techniques we need to understand that nerves run from
the brain towards the
extremities of the body - the feet and hands.
What we do & think, what we did and thought, what we want, and how we
behave is reflected through our nerves and shown on our hands (and feet).
The palm reading diagram below refers to this process and shows the nerves running from our left and right hand sides of the
brain to the hands and feet.
It is not only the lines on our hands that are the recipients of our thoughts
but also:
the structure, flexibility, suppleness, colour, shape and texture of
our hands.

Reflexology and palmistry are sciences that recognize these
facts and can then be used to our advantage to help us.
Reflexology is in a sense a reversal of our normal thought behavior.
What would have been: thought (brain) - nerves - reaction,
is now essentially:
action - nerves - brain = reflex, to stimulate a required body zone.
The basic palm reading hand chart below shows the 4 main corporeal zones reflected on the hand:
the head, chest, abdomen and pelvic area.

The theory behind and practice of Palm reading
extends back to at least 3000BC in China, many millenia before these studies reached the European shores.
