Astrool Palm Reading
Your hand's major lines and mounts, read from a photo and interpreted against the traditional system palmistry has used for centuries.
What palm reading looks at
Palmistry, or chiromancy, reads the lines, mounts and general shape of the hand. The three lines most readings centre on are the heart line (emotion and relationships), the head line (thinking style and decision-making) and the life line (vitality and major life change, not lifespan, a common misconception).
The major lines
| Line | Traditionally describes |
|---|---|
| Heart line | Emotional expression, relationships |
| Head line | Thinking style, decision-making |
| Life line | Vitality, major transitions |
| Fate line | Career direction, external influence (not present on every hand) |
Mounts
The mounts are the fleshy areas at the base of each finger and along the palm's edges, each associated with a planet in the older tradition: the mount of Venus (base of the thumb) with vitality and passion, the mount of Jupiter (base of the index finger) with ambition and leadership.
How Astrool reads a photo
Take a clear, well-lit photo of your palm and Astrool identifies the major lines and mounts, then interprets them against the traditional meanings above. A flatter light and a fully open hand produce a more reliable read than a shadowed or curled one.

Common questions
Does my life line predict how long I'll live?
No, that is a popular misconception. The life line traditionally describes vitality and major life changes, not lifespan.
Which hand should I photograph?
Most traditions read the dominant hand for how you act and the non-dominant hand for innate tendency. Astrool reads whichever hand you photograph.
Do my palm lines change over time?
The deep lines are relatively stable, but minor lines and the hand's overall texture do shift, which is part of why some traditions treat a reading as a snapshot rather than a permanent verdict.
