How does Tickle know this about you? Using a sample of over 1400 people, Tickle's psychologists sought to validate what palmists have known for centuries — the lines in your hand and the formation of your palm can be a true reflection of the individual if properly interpreted. Through rigorous statistical analyses, Tickle was able to find empirical evidence that certain relationships exist between the characteristics of your palm and the way you approach life. For example, our research experts found that there is a significant likelihood that people with:

A Life Line origin high and close to their index finger live life to its fullest
A variable depth Head Line have widely varying levels of concentration
A Heart Line destination curving toward their middle finger are highly expressive
Rounded fingers and thumbs are impressionable
A pink Mound of Saturn have a high sense of self worth and are reliable and cautious

Hand analysis has been used for centuries to explore possibilities for the present and future. Hand analysts believe that your life shapes the lines in your palm because the way that you use your hands directly reflects your relationship to the world. An in-depth analysis of your palm can help you tap into your special abilities as well as help you guide your future by reading the signs.


To help you better consider the information you might hear from a traditionally trained palmist or hand analyst, Tickle has generated a traditional palm reading with scientific annotations. These annotations reflect the confidence with which Tickle would agree with a traditionally trained palmist. Items with three checkmarks reflect a high confidence of accuracy — three or more claims were statistically validated in Tickle's study. Items with two checkmarks indicate that two claims were statistically validated. Items with one checkmark indicate that one claim was statistically validated. Items with no checkmarks were not validated in Tickle's study.

Palmists can learn a substantial amount from the lines of your palm. The four major lines are your Life Line, Head Line, Heart Line, and Destiny Line. From your Life Line, a palmist can tell what your general approach to life is and how you deal with life's challenges. Your Head Line reveals how you process information and think through problems. Your Heart Line can give a palmist insight into your personal relationships, including friends, family, and significant other(s). Your Destiny Line pertains to changes in your personal drive and focus over time. In addition, a palmist can read some of the lesser lines — if they are present in your palm — for information on your level of creativity, communication skill, and attachments you may have or will have with others throughout your life.


Life Line

The Life Line reveals your approach to life and how you handle uncertainty or hardship. It is a common misconception that the Life Line can tell you when you will die. Even persons with relatively short Life Lines can live a long life. Generally, the information that can be gleaned from your Life Line pertains to your overall outlook and the ease with which you will travel through your life.





You have a natural ability to show your love and sympathy for others. You are generally supportive when friends or family come to you for assistance.

One of the most important things to you in life is to make sure that you are living your life to its fullest. When you have regrets, they are likely to stem from a sense of not having done enough or wishing that you had done something differently.

When you are confronted with serious problems in life, you tend to become confused or overwhelmed. This may mean that it is hard to get clarity on certain issues. You sometimes find yourself fumbling to decide between what is actually a bona fide problem in your life as opposed to a minor distraction.


Head Line

The Head Line reveals how you process information and think through problems. It is a common misconception that the Head Line can tell you how intelligent you are. Persons with various styles of Head Lines can be very smart, but in different ways. Primarily, the information that can be gathered from your Head Line pertains to your particular way of understanding the information you come into contact with throughout your life.





When it comes to leadership, you are probably quite comfortable in either the role of the leader or the follower. Since taking charge is not necessarily something you covet, you are usually fine with stepping aside to let someone else take the lead. However, if no one else steps up, you know you are capable of taking on the leader role.

Your thought process tends to be a balance of rational and imaginative approaches. While you can solve complex problems when necessary, you may also enjoy listening to your intuition when faced with decision-making. Your ability to draw on both rational and intuitive parts of your brain may be confusing to some, especially if your ability to do so is sporadic or inconsistent.

The projects that you tend to like the most are ones where you are sleuthing for a solution to a complicated problem or set of issues.

When you have a choice, you'd probably rather research and investigate multiple options simultaneously. You are likely a master multi-tasker who enjoys having many balls in the air at the same time.


Heart Line

The Heart Line reveals how you handle the relationships in your life and how comfortable you are with intimacy. It is a common misconception that the Heart Line can tell you definitively what relationships you will have in the future. On average, the information that can be collected from your Heart Line indicates the influences in your life that have in the past or will in the future affect your personal relationships, including friends, family, and significant other(s).





Your ability to be intimate with others may be influenced by a lack of commitment. You may find it difficult to make emotional promises, even if you are married. People you don't know well may find you somewhat distant.

In close-knit connections, you tend to be an analytical person who spends a lot of time thinking about and seeking to understand your relationships. Your ideal life partner will likely marvel at your considerate and thoughtful nature. Beware though — at times you may get stuck inside your head too much, always thinking, and not allowing yourself to go with the flow.

For more information about your close relationships with others, see the "Attachment Lines" section of this report below.


Destiny Line

The Destiny Line (also called the Saturn Line) reveals changes in your personal drive and focus over time. There is much that a palmist can tell about your career and/or personal drive, including approximate timing of major events or changes — just by looking at the Destiny Line! Primarily, the information garnered from your Destiny Line on your right palm — the Palm you looked at to answer the questions on this test — pertains to your career. In turn, the information gathered from your Destiny Line on your left palm pertains to your personal sense of purpose.





Your career choice is likely influenced by your intense focus, along with your gifted ability to systematically set and achieve goals. Dedicated and persistent, the job most likely to make you work around the clock is one that rewards your steady and unwavering pace toward completing objectives.

Chance and luck may play a big factor in your chosen career. There may be a time that you have to choose a certain direction. To make a decision, it's probably best to keep your mind open to the different options that come your way.


Apollo Line

The Apollo Line can predict your level of creativity and flexibility, although not everyone has an Apollo Line; it is a vertical line that appears below your ring finger.





The presence of an Apollo Line — even a short or faint one — suggests higher than average success in creative ventures. A person with an Apollo Line is more likely to receive acknowledgement as an expert or specialist in their chosen field. There is also a high likelihood of gaining personal recognition.


Mercury Line

The Mercury Line can foretell your skill at communication or psychic ability. However, not everyone has a Mercury Line; it is a vertical line that appears below your pinky finger.





If you don't have a Mercury Line in your palm, it doesn't represent a lack of communication skills. Usually, it suggests you land around average or slightly above in your public speaking skills. Otherwise, there is a chance that you may not listen to your intuition as closely as those with a Mercury Line.

Your palm does not contain the Line of Psychic Ability, which resembles an arc that is an extension of a person's Mercury Line. While psychics do not always have the Line of Psychic Ability, those who have the line can more easily tap into their paranormal skills. While you may have psychic abilities, you will likely have a more difficult time accessing them than someone with the Line of Psychic Ability.


Attachment Lines

The Attachment Lines reveal the major relationships you may have with others. Traditional palmists engage in ample debate about the validity of these lines as predictions of marriages and children. However, most agree that the attachment lines indicate the possibility that a person might marry or have children, whether they choose to or not is a decision left to the individual.





A palmist would say that you will be married multiple times or have several committed relationships that do not lead to marriage. It will be up to you at some point to make a decision that will either drive you toward or away from each of these relationships. A palmist would say that you will have the opportunity to have at least one child, probably including a boy. The decision to embrace this opportunity to bring children into your life is yours.




The mounds of your palm can tell you what kinds of energy you possess naturally and which energies will be more difficult for you to access. Through a careful examination of the fleshy areas of your hand, you can learn which areas of life you will be most likely to find success. The following traits were determined by looking at the shape and color of different areas of your hand.

Mound of Saturn







The Mound of Saturn — located in the upper portion of your palm, just below your middle finger — is related to your concept of self-worth, personal satisfaction, and security.

Your palm reveals a somewhat poor Mound of Saturn, as affirmed by its shape and color. You probably don't have an innate gift for self-reflection or personal accountability. To tap into your inner tranquility all you need to do is put forth the commitment to change. It's well within your reach!

The Mound of Mercury — located in the upper portion of your palm, just below your pinky finger — is related to intimacy, spiritual understanding, and interpersonal communication.

You can tell by its great shape and color that a healthy dose of Mound of Mercury sits in your palm. When things are going well for you, one could say that communicating clearly is your strong point. You really understand what makes people tick. Others feel comfortable sharing intimate details of their life with you that they may not with others. Family and friends look to you as a deep and insightful confidant.


Mound of Mars

Upper Mound of Mars




The Upper Mound of Mars located in the middle left portion of your palm — is related to inner calm, boldness, and skill at dealing with life's problems.

The plump shape and color in your palm signifies a strong Upper Mound of Mars. When you have your best foot forward, you have the uncanny ability to maintain your cool in the midst of chaos. This singles you out from the rest as an exceptionally stable and brave individual.


Lower Mound of Mars




The Lower Mound of Mars — located in the middle right portion of your palm — is related to action, aggressiveness, and the momentum to make things happen.

You're all that, with your strong Lower Mound of Mars, as indicated by its healthy shape and color. On your best days, your take-charge attitude makes people stop and listen. This is a great attribute along with your energetic approach to life that is contagious. You stand out above others as extremely motivated.

As illustrated by its awesome shape and color, you have a mighty Mound of Moon. When you're at your best, your inventiveness can lead you to truly original ideas that most people wouldn't think of.
Your Fingers and Thumb
While you may not consider the fingers and thumbs as part of a palm reading, they really do play a significant part of a traditional hand analysis. Palmists read signs in the fingers and thumb as well as using them as landmarks for other parts of the reading. The interpretation of the mounds and lines of the palm are highly influenced by their proximity to each finger and the thumb.

The shape of your fingers and thumb reveal that you are an impressionable person. You are open to the influences in the world around you, yet you generally don't act in drastic ways. Moderation is key for you. The finger and thumb shape create energies that influence the reading of each of your fingers and thumb and by extension, your entire palm.





Your index finger, also called the Jupiter Finger, traditionally corresponds with leadership abilities. Your Jupiter Finger is strong which means you probably enjoy being in charge. You'll likely prefer to have a team of people working under your direction and enjoy guiding people to meet their potential. Your index finger leans in toward your middle finger, indicating your need to know that others feel good about you. While gaining approval from your peers is a positive thing, you need to sustain a solid sense of self-worth. Becoming dependent on positive feedback won't help you in the long run.

Your middle finger, also called the Saturn Finger, traditionally corresponds with confidence. Your palm bears a strong Saturn Finger. One could probably bet your sense of self- worth ranks high. It is more likely that you take risks in life because you believe in your ability to succeed.

Your ring finger, also called the Apollo Finger, traditionally corresponds with creativity. You have a strong Apollo Finger, which may mean you were born with your own creative nature. You probably love contributing to the world in ways that challenge you to think of unusual and original methods of doing things. Your ring finger leans in toward your middle finger, indicating your concern for the consequences of your actions. This tendency may be hampering your creativity because you are always thinking in terms of boundaries and limitations.

Your pinky finger, also called the Mercury Finger, traditionally corresponds with insight and understanding. You are blessed with a strong Mercury Finger. As a result, you probably find that you have a natural talent for understanding other people. Your friends usually routinely turn to you for your insight. Your guidance helps them understand their interactions with others. Your pinky finger leans in away from your ring finger, revealing your strong notion to think as individual and not adopt mainstream ideas.

Your thumb can be read to ascertain your level of flexibility when it comes to dealing with people or unpredictable situations. Your thumb reveals that you are a fairly flexible person who commonly tries to keep the peace.
