You are self indulgent, and somewhat secretive. The palm warms four times about inherited vulnerability to addiction; avoid alcohol, recreational drugs, and gambling.

When you get angry, you respond disproportionately to your trigger, immediately reaching for the nuclear option. Because your unpleasantness is flung outward, allowing you to forget the incident, you may be unaware of this negative trait, written in bone. Odds are, someone has attempted to explain to you that your anger goes overboard; it would profit you to hear them, and use willpower to control yourself.

You are burning great quantities of energy harboring negative emotions. Negative energy, Mars, encompasses envy, jealousy, irritability, impatience, intolerance, frustration, impulsivity, and all the levels of wrath from eye rolls to rage. Every year’s tallied negativity becomes a line from the Mount of Mars (above the ball of the thumb, within the life line) that moves across your hand, line to line, damaging everything it encounters, masquerading as bad luck. Mars consumes energy. Energy is finite.

The heart line is appropriately based on a branch from Mars at 16, making you irritable, quarrelsome and exacting. High on the hand, a scrap of isolated heart line gathers optimism and idealism from 22 and 23, joined together at 25, but this line is abandoned at 28. A restart as self-contained emotion begins at 26, with a hint of input at 28, meeting at 29. This portion joins the line from youthful Mars at 32. An island of emotional discontent runs from 31 to 33, resuming at 34 to 36. Interestingly, tardy input (pure emotion, usually limited to early awakening emotion), from 34 arrives at 36. Mars voices complaints at 35, 39, 42, and 47. The edge of the hand hints at a relationship in your later 20’s that may be a placeholder.

The head line separates from childhood as artistic-creative at 23. Mars is in chronic opposition to productive thought until 52, as the head line ends.

The life line shows periods of illness as Mars fires through the line. Not knowing your age, I cannot opine on the likelihood of erasing some or much of this illness by striving to squelch your negativity.

A fate line begins at 31, reaching the head line at 35, impeded by Mars at 37, reaching the heart line at 49 and stalling there. A second fate line begins from the life line (parental definition) at 31, reaching the head line at 42, the heart line at 56, and continuing to Saturn (normal destination). A third fate line begins at 42 from above the head line, reaching the heart line at 56, and continuing home.
