  • What is Vedic Palmistry?

    Vedic Palmistry, or Hast Jyotish, is a science of self-discovery developed by the sages of ancient India more than 5,000 years ago. The sages realized that the features of our palms correlate to our thoughts and outlook, and that when we change the way we think and behave the features of our hands also change. Hence, studying changes in the palm provides us with enormous insight in our attitudes and behavior and is a powerful tool for initiating and monitoring personal growth.

    Indeed, the lines and signs of our hands reflect the entirety of our life experiences. Analyzing our hands gives us a unique, objective and incredibly accurate perspective on who we are as individual. It also alerts us to the challenges we are likely to face in life, our emotional and psychological makeup, and our personal strengths and weaknesses. This knowledge allows us to use Vedic palmistry to overcome obstacles, develop our natural gifts and talents, and guide us toward a happier, healthier and more successful life.
