Palmistry is a pseudoscientific practice that involves fortune-telling by studying the palm. It is also known as palm reading, chiromancy, chirology, or cheirology.

Palmistry is practiced all over the world, with many cultural variations. The origins of palmistry are uncertain, but it may have originated in ancient India and spread from there.
The objective of palmistry is to evaluate a person’s character and aspects of their life by studying the palm of their hand. For example, according to the University of Warwick, a fair Line of Life that is not broken with cross-lines denotes health and long life.
Some say that palmistry has value as a means of self-reflection, regardless of whether or not you believe in it.
