If your dominant hand’s index finger appears long, (tip is more than halfway past the middle of the tip of the middle finger), projects forward, and has pink color beneath (all races), you’re a planner, goal setter, and natural leader. As an ambitious career minded professional, you’re attracted to go-getters like yourself, steering far away from strays and fixer-uppers. Anyone looking for a free ride or unable to carry his or her weight will quickly lose your respect.
Many dominant index fingered people are of medium height with generously proportioned bodies. They frequently have wide chests, high foreheads, widely spaced kind eyes, and round faces with wavy hair. These individuals enjoy being married and need a partner as much as a lover in a mate. Their relationship problems often result from obsessive or controlling behavioral patterns and judgmental, critical attitudes. False pride, gluttony, vanity, and bossiness are weaknesses that these individuals can overcome by practicing moderation and steadily earning success.
Although, long index fingered folk are naturally healthy types, they must be careful not to overindulge in rich food and drink. As their physical sense is taste, temptation is strong. They love rich exotic foods, luxurious desserts, and fine wine. If they don’t take good care of themselves, they’re prone to blood disorders, liver trouble, diabetes, stroke, high blood pressure, and problems with hips, thighs, and throat. Many of the finest chefs have dominant index fingers (reflected in the length and thickness of the bottom phalange).
As previously discussed, proportions of individual phalanges, knots, and nails are important. With a spatulate fingertip there’s more individuality, unconventionality, and originality. A square tipped person is more practical and responsible. Round and conical tips are adaptable and intuitive. Every detail, including fingerprints, must to be taken into consideration.
Dermatoglyphics rarely change, unlike lines, which change as our thinking, and circumstances change. A careful examination of dermatoglyphics requires a quality set of hand-prints a magnifying glass, and a measuring device. Dermatoglyphics and timing are beyond the scope of this blog at the moment. If you’re interested in fingerprints, Richard Unger has devoted a large portion of his career as a hand analyst to finger prints. His book, LIFEPRINTS, is worth reading.
If your index finger is short (less than half way to the middle of the top phalange of the middle finger), you’ll have to work harder than the long index fingered person. Your major challenge is learning to value and ask enough for yourself. Too many short index fingered people received too little encouragement and support while growing up. Nonetheless, plenty of successful individuals have short index fingers. They earn every drop of whatever they achieve. Nothing comes easily. Scientific studies have related short index fingers to homosexuality, a claim I’ve refuted in a previous entry. See how my knowledge of index fingers transformed my family’s destiny.
The basic shape of your hands will determine whether you’re more intuitive, practical, thinking, or feeling. If you want to cultivate a dominant index fingered person, be honest and direct, show pride in your work, and take calculated risks. Many strong index fingered people become successful managers, journalists, judges, lawyers, politicians, singers (instrument is voice), producers, promoters, priests, chefs, speakers, and salespeople.
