PALM READING MERCURY FINGER
Learn About Your Mercury Finger
Mercury Finger
You have, no doubt, already noticed that a number of parts of the hand are named after planets. The little finger is named after the planet Mercury. In ancient times, Mercury was the winged messenger. Today, the little finger is the finger of communication. It also relates to activity and sex. This finger should reach up to about the first joint of the third finger.If it’s longer than this, communication skills are enhanced. If it’s shorter, the person will have difficulty expressing his or her thoughts. If it’s very short, the person will be emotionally immature, which is certain to create sexual problems. The length of this finger is complicated. On many people, it’s set low on the palm. The other three fingers may all be set in a reasonably straight line on the edge of the palm, but the little finger is set down a step. The bigger the step, the greater the ups and downs the person will experience. When your client has this type of little finger, you can say:
“You have what is known as a dropped little finger, as it is set so much lower than the others. This means that everything will go beautifully for you for a long time, and then, all of a sudden, you will be dropped into a situation and have to climb out again. It means learning the hard way, learning through experience.” Like all the other fingers, the Mercury finger should be straight. This shows that the person is basically honest. If it is bent, or even slightly twisted in appearance, it’s an indication of potential dishonesty. I have noticed this formation on the hands of a number of money changers in India. When I see this on a hand, I always advise the person to be very careful and honest in all financial dealings.
The Phalanges
Now we look at the relative lengths of the three phalanges. The tip phalange governs verbal communication and is by far the longest on most people’s hands. People with long tip phalanges on the little finger express themselves best by talking. It’s a very desirable quality for sales people, radio and television announcers, teachers or anyone whose career involves a large amount of speaking. If the tip phalange is short, the person will find it hard to learn and will have major problems in expressing him or herself. Frequently, the second phalange is very small. This phalange governs written communication. People with very small second phalanges will do anything to avoid putting their thoughts on paper. People with large second phalanges usually enjoy expressing themselves in this way. You will find a good sized second phalange on writers and people who enjoy writing letters or email. You’ll also find this larger phalange on people who can explain something more easily by writing it down rather than verbally describing it. Often these people are aware that they have ability in this area, but do nothing to develop it. A good sized second phalange also shows that the person can start something and then carry it through to fruition without losing interest halfway through. Conversely, if this section is very small, the person will have a lack of organizational skills.
The third, or base, phalange relates to the material world, specifically money. If this phalange is the largest, the person will love money for money’s sake. This individual will be highly persuasive and also be prepared to bend the truth when it suits his of her needs.
