JUPITER FINGER

Learn About Your Jupiter Finger

The Jupiter Finger

The first finger is named after the planet Jupiter, which in turn is named after the king of the gods. It denotes drive, ambition, leadership qualities and the ego.

Length
The Jupiter finger should reach between half and two-thirds of the way up the tip phalange of the second finger. Ideally, it should be about the same length as the Apollo finger. If it is longer, it gives the person drive and ambition. People with a long Jupiter finger are determined to get what they want and keep on working at it until they succeed. The only disadvantage of this, is these people often do not know when to stop. In extreme cases, these people can drive themselves to an early grave. If the Jupiter finger is very long compared to the Apollo finger, it can indicate egotism. If the Jupiter finger is the same length as the Apollo finger it means the person is moderately ambitious and will work hard for what he or she wants, but also knows when to stop and relax. This person will be realistic in assessing his or her abilities. It’s not always easy to determine the relative lengths of the fingers from the palm side of the hand. As mentioned earlier, it is often better to assess the relative lengths of the Jupiter and Apollo fingers by turning the hand over and comparing them from the back of the hand. When the Jupiter finger is shorter than the Apollo, it is an indication of lack of confidence early on in life. If this finger is very short, it indicates someone who is timid, quiet and scared of life.

Curved Jupiter finger
If this finger curves towards the Saturn finger, the person will be selfcentred and need constant encouragement. This relates to low selfesteem and lack of confidence.

Phalanges
As with the other fingers the three phalanges should be reasonably equal in length. If the tip phalange is the longest, the person will have religious or philosophical interests and have a strong sense of dignity. They are likely to work in a field involving personal contact. Members of the clergy are a good example as they’re usually religious and work with people. If the middle phalange is longest, the person will be intelligent, practical and have a positive approach towards his or her goals in life. The base phalange is more likely to be larger than the others. If this is the case, the person will be interested in philosophy and religion. You could say: “You will gradually build up a strong faith or philosophy. It may or may not be a church type of religion, but whatever it is, it will play an increasingly strong role in your life.”

If the base phalange is the shortest, the person will have a low self esteem and be free of great ambitions. People with a short base phalange are happiest left to themselves, pursuing their own modest dreams.
