The Minor Lines or the
Lines of Influence
In Chapter IX `The
Lines-General’, it has been shown in fig. 2, that only six minor lines exist.
The Line of Mars and the Line of Affection were omitting. The Line of Mars has been dealt together with the Line of
Vitality; and it was the intention to discuss the Lines of Affections together
with Notes on Marriage-being the coming chapter in this book. In order to avoid
any misunderstanding, both Lines of Mars and Affections have been included in
this chapter.
In addition to the six
main lines mentioned in the preceding chapters, there appear in the hand eight
other independent lines of special influence and character. In very few h ands
not more than two or three lines appear at one time while the majority of hands
contain one or two lines only.
As every minor line takes
its place in the region or area of a main line or mount, it necessarily
partakes of the qualities and influence of that main line or mount whether good
or bad.
The eight minor lines
are:
Part 1
(1) The Girdle of
Venus-
(AB fig. 254), is a curved line which takes its place immediately above the
Line of Heart in the space between the Fingers of Mercury and Saturn or
Jupiter; in very rare cases it appears very long than it might be mistaken for
the Main Line of Heart (fig. 255). The Line of Heart is always clear and deep
and must start on the ulnar side of the hand, while the Girdle of Venus never
extended to that side.
The Girdle of Venus is
often found in triangular hands with conic or pointed finger tips; it is seen
in ladies’ hands more than in men’s. In every case where the Line of Heart
shows kindness or timidity or in case there is hasty hot temperament or
delicate feelings, the Girdle of Venus is always present.
The Girdle of Venus is
considered to be good if it appears in the shape of a slightly curved line as
shown in fig. 255. In such case the Line of Heart will be sword like and end
abruptly on the Mount of Saturn. A very good Girdle of Venus is always seen in
the hands of good Saturnine or Mercurians who have adequate control over their
emotions. On the other hand, if the Girdle of Venus is poor or weak, i.e.,
composed of broken lines (fig. 256), it betrays a highly sensitive nature which
could be easily aroused and moved. The palm of the hand in such circumstances
will be of soft or thin texture, the Line of Heart poor and the thumb weak.
It is remarkable to note
in such cases of bad Girdle of Venus the too much talk, imagination and debut
enveloping the character. The Mount of the Moon will be depressed and bad,
creating pessimistic hallucinations which will play the devil with the
sensation.
In a poor hand where the
bad Girdle of Venus is seen, it is important to examine carefully the Mount of
Jupiter or the Mounts of Mars and Venus; in case bad signs exist on one of
these mounts such as grilles or islands and bars, they mean excessive
indulgence in bad vice. They also denote blind jealousy and stubbornness which
will answer any temptation irrespective of any consequences.
When the Girdle of Venus
looks good and healthy, the Mount of Venus clean and the fingers long and
narrow, it indicates chastity and uprightness. This type of Girdle of Venus is
seen in the hands of hermits.
A poor Girdle of Venus
accompanied by a bad Mount of Venus and a sloping Line of Mentality of a long
poor Line of Heart (fig. 257) is a true sign of blind doubt whipped with raging
jealousy which stops at nothing and could be aroused at the slightest
provocation.
