The heart line is the first to be studied in a reading. When it comes to analyzing your love life, it’s all about the heart line.
Where is the heart line?
The heart line runs horizontally across your palm and is the topmost line you’ll see. It begins at the edge of your palm on the pinkie side, and runs to just underneath your index or middle finger.
What can the heart line or love line tell you?
The heart line’s arch, length and depth tell a story about your relationships, emotions, feelings, and connection to the spiritual world.
- Insights into your romantic relationships
- Clues about your relationship with yourself
- How you deal with your friendships
- Emotions, and your potential for personal growth.
- Your approach to spiritual life and your inner world.
How to read your heart line
Those with deep heart lines are more stable and grounded, whereas shallow lines are a sign of a sensitive personality.
A straight line means you are more stoic and guarded in your relationships, but a bit of an arch in your heart line represents a balance between holding onto your own identity and being engulfed in romance. A heart-line that splits or branches signals an inclination to put others before yourself. Relationships (including friendships) are often intense at first but fleeting.
If you’re a particularly passionate and sensual person, then you may have coarse, grainy heart lines, but lots of little lines crossing the heart line, may indicate emotional trauma.
A deep and long line signifies depth and being in tune with one’s emotions, while a heavily chained line can indicate conflicting emotions and potentially more than one love interest at the same time.
Bonus: Affection lines
The small lines at the edge of your palm next to your heart line provide a bit of extra colour to your heart line reading.
If you have an affection line or two, you have a strong relationship that will span your whole life. Think: one marriage. On the other hand, many little shallow lines hint that you’re not having the most impactful relationships. This is obvious, but if you notice a break or split on one of the lines, it means you might face a messy breakup at some point.
The goal is self awareness
Palmistry can act as a reality check and excuse for a dose of self-reflection. After all, understanding who you are in relationships helps strengthen your next or current partnership.
