There are several clues you can uncover about a man's character if you know how to read his palms. They hold more information about him than you might realize. Their condition, shape, and even the way they feel can be indicators of larger issues you may want to look into further.
Here's a quick guide on 6 things you can learn:
1. His handshake: How energetic and interested he is.
When a man gives you a firm handshake, it denotes the positive personality traits of someone who is confident and energetic. However, if he gives you a “dead fish” handshake, meaning one in which his hand feels limp and practically lifeless in yours, you should probably consider moving on. This typically indicates someone who lacks energy and is disinterested in you. If a man gives you an overpowering, bone-crushing handshake, he may be someone who needs to feel dominant.
2. The texture of his skin: How sensitive he is (or isn't).
People with softer hands tend to possess more sensitive traits, while people with firm or rough hands tend to be the opposite. Skin types fall into four categories aligned with each of the four elements: air, earth, fire, and water.
Air: Men who work on a computer all day are likely to have air type skin, which is typically soft, but dry. Many women prefer dating air types, and they tend to be sensitive enough to share their feelings.
Earth: Men with earthy skin are often involved in manual labor, causing it to grow grainy and tough. These men are less likely to share their feelings as freely.
Fire: Fire type skin suggests a man who's athletic and active, but who still has a sensitive side. The skin of their hands tends to feel dry, but not soft like the skin of air types.
Water: Men with water-type skin have slightly clammy hands, and are the most sensitive of all four types. Not many men fit into this group, and If they do, it may also indicate laziness.
3. The lines of his palm: How complex and talented he is.
When a man has an excess of palm lines, chances are high that he’s holding onto a lot of stress. If a man's hand have fewer lines, it probably means he isn’t carrying a lot of problems with him, and he's likely to have a more relaxed personality type in general.
4. His fingernails: How healthy he is.
Fingernails can actually be a great way to learn about the quality of a man’s health. People with clean fingernails are more likely to take plenty of care in maintaining their spaces and their bodies, whereas people with dirty fingernails tend to be more on the messy side.
If the base of a man’s fingernails are red, he might have an issue with high blood pressure. If they’re blue, it could mean he has an underlying problem preventing him from getting enough oxygen.
5. The straightness of his fingers: How much stress he's under and if he has trust issues.
One of the most common finger bends is located in the middle finger, which is often seen bending or leaning toward the ring finger. This is a sign of a worry or stress. If his pinky fingers are bent, this can suggest trust issues.
6. The temperature of his hands: How confident he is.
Are his hands icy cold, warm, or simply neutral? If they feel icy the first few times you get together, this could be an indication that he feels nervous around you, which can be really sweet. He wants to impress you. However, if his hands are constantly cold, it's likely he has some circulation issues. If his hands are warm, your guy is probably pretty confident.
