When someone asks me if they are likely to travel, my first reply is likely to be ‘Do you want to travel?�?The very fact the question has been asked hints that the person may have already considered travel, or is keen to travel and broaden their horizons. And if this is the case, then there are likely to be features within the palms, particularly in the passive (non writing) hand which may indicate the desire and the possibility of travel. If the person makes this travel a reality, there may also be features of travel in the active (writing) hand. But travel can mean many things to many people. To some it is the opportunity to travel the world, moving from place to place. To others it is the idea of seeing another country, perhaps for a holiday, while to others it is the desire to emigrate and completely change one’s lifestyle. To others still, it could be a dream, a fantasy, which is never likely to be acted on or become reality, remaining only a desire to escape the pressures of some of the more harsh realities of this world.

 

 

So if you are asking whether travel is likely in your life, then the chances are that you are already the type of person who is keen to expand your vision and broaden your horizon past what you can already see. Your hands may reveal this and can be seen by looking at your life line, in either hand. A widely sweeping life line covering one third of the palm and circling a good Venus mount development will reveal that you are prepared to seek out new experiences and broaden your vision, with a desire to get out of life what you can. Circling around the thumb, seen in the diagram to the left, reveals that although you are keen to make what you can of every experience which presents itself, you are likely to remain attached to your roots.

 

 

 

Perhaps you have a life line that, instead of ending by curling back towards the thumb, extends outwards to end either on the Neptune mount (centre base of palm) or reaches out further than this, heading across to the Luna mount on the other side of the palm. The more the life line reaches out across your palm, the greater your desire for movement, with an ever decreasing attachment to your home and roots. The diagram to the left demonstrates a life line which swings out towards Luna. This is an extreme example of a person who has a particularly strong urge to get out and see the world, without looking back!


 

 

 

Sometimes though, the life line will sweep out across the palm forming a broad arc, curl back to end below the thumb, but will have branches reaching out towards the Luna mount. Here the person will always remain attached to his roots, but will have an urge to expand outwards, perhaps making several important journeys, or taking memorable holidays. When a particularly strong branch is seen, this can indicate a particularly important journey, and sometimes possible emigration. You may have any one or more of these branches in your palm.

 

 

 

 

These small branches do not always indicate journeys, but more a desire to escape from particular people or situations. The diagram on the left demonstrates a person who is feeling strong pressure from other people in his life, and finding it difficult to cope, is strongly feeling an urge to escape the
situation. The influence lines crossing the Venus mount are relentlessly attacking the life line, bringing severe pressure. The downward branches on this life line indicate a need to get up and run away from the situation.

 

 

Sometimes a long influence line may cross the Venus mount and cross over the life line in the direction of the passive Mars mount. This hints at a person creating an influence which may eventually result in some kind of movement, or possible emigration. It is important not to confuse this with an
influence line that heads towards the heart line or an attachment line. Horizontal lines which cross the percussion, as in the diagram to the right, are known as travel lines and indicate possible journeys, but are frequently found to indicate a general restlessness within the nature, often found in the Fire hand element personality.

So, if you have any of these signs in your hands, are you likely to travel? Well, it could be up to you�?..are you prepared to make it happen? Appearing in your passive hand, these signs are possibilities, options available for you to take, a desire within yourself. If you are the type who canmake things happen, you are likely to see these signs in your active hand. But remember that your hands are a living reflection of you�?..you are not a victim of circumstance�?.you control the lines in your palms, they don’t control you. If you have the desire and the drive to make something happen, and the option is there for you to take an opportunity, then you will take it.

As life unfolds, we take different roads and new opportunities arise, sometimes opportunities which we would never have believed could take place. The lines in your hands change as you change and as life unfolds for you. Destiny is never already decided, you do have a choice!
