The Air Hand
Gemini, Libra and Aquarius are all air signs and as with the other elemental hand shapes, their general hand shapes remain the same across gender and all age groups. Intellectual air signs are known for creativity, adaptability and the ability to visualize and implement innovative concepts far beyond the grasp of many of their more grounded counterparts.
The overall shape of the air sign’s hand is a square or rectangular palm with long fingers. Occasionally the knuckles will appear knobby – another sign of the deep thinker that values privacy. This might seem somewhat at odds with the typically gregarious nature of air dwellers, but these individuals learn to balance their need for social engagement and “alone-time” to suit the introspective times that may unexpectedly surface.
There is great diversity within the overall palm/finger combinations of the air hands, which seems to indicate that the individual is afforded a full bag of tricks at birth from which to determine their life path. As their interests and intellect develop their hand shape develops in response to the tools of their trade. The artistic air sign might develop long, capable fingers with the sensitivity to impart delicate perfection in artistic projects. The scholastic air sign might develop the knobby fingers of the philosopher, and the inventive air sign might develop the strong, powerful fingers of the craftsman.
“Logic over emotion” are generally the watchwords of the air sign. Just as many influences beyond those of the ruling planet impart the distinct particulars of the individual’s personality, the broad strokes of planetary influence can generally be relied upon more than 90% of the time. Likewise, these distinct planetary influences are reliably reinforced in the palm/finger combination, which should give the reader a sense of confidence in identifying the basic character and interests of the seeker.
Air signs do not suffer fools lightly, so palmists are well advised to avoid over-embellishment of the reading in an effort to impress the seeker with their knowledge and insight. Better to stick to the basics and follow the lead of the seeker. He or she will ask for more information when they’re ready, which helps to define the pace and direction of the reading.
