What is palmistry?
Palmistry — known as chiromancy in the West and hast rekha in India — reads your character and life patterns from the hand itself. A reading looks at the shape of the palm and its element, the four major lines (Heart, Head, Life and Fate), the minor lines, the seven mounts, the fingers and thumb, and any special marks or rare Samudrika Shastra signs. Together they describe how you love, think, work and grow.
Unlike a chart-based reading, palmistry has no birth data to compute from — the story is written in your hand. So Astronaad reads a clear photo of your open, dominant palm and maps exactly what is visible onto the authentic classical framework, never inventing a line or a meaning.
How Astronaad reads your hand
You upload a well-lit photo of your open dominant palm with the fingers slightly spread. Our AI Vision examines the depth, length and curve of each line, how prominent or flat each mount is, the proportions of your fingers and thumb, and any marks it can genuinely see. Every observation is interpreted against a fixed classical knowledge base — the meanings of the four lines, the seven planetary mounts, the elemental hand shapes and the auspicious signs — so the reading stays true to traditional chiromancy rather than guessing. If a feature is unclear in the photo, the report says so honestly instead of inventing it.
What your reading reveals
Your report opens with your hand shape and element (Earth, Air, Fire or Water) and the character it reveals, then walks through all four major lines and the minor lines, the seven mounts, your fingers and thumb, and any special marks or auspicious signs. It then draws this together into clear outlooks for love, career, health and wealth, your core strengths, practical guidance and a summary of the life story your palm tells. The full reading is available in 24 languages and can be downloaded as a polished PDF to keep or share.
Frequently asked questions
- What is palmistry (hast rekha)?
- Palmistry — chiromancy, or hast rekha gyan in Hindi — is the classical art of reading character and life patterns from the hand: the shape of the palm, the four major lines (Heart, Head, Life and Fate), the minor lines, the seven mounts, the fingers and thumb, and any special marks. Astronaad reads a clear photo of your dominant palm against this fixed classical framework, so every interpretation maps to authentic palmistry, not invented meanings.
- How does Astronaad read my palm from a photo?
- You upload a clear, well-lit photo of your open dominant palm. Our AI Vision then examines what is genuinely visible — the hand shape, the depth and curve of each line, the prominence of each mount, finger and thumb proportions, and any marks — and maps it onto the authoritative classical framework (the four lines, seven mounts and Samudrika Shastra signs). It reads only what it can actually see in your hand and never invents a line or mark that is not there.
- What do the four major lines mean?
- The Heart Line (top of the palm) governs love, emotions and relationship style. The Head Line (across the centre) reflects your intellect, thinking style and decision-making. The Life Line (curving around the thumb) shows vitality and how you move through life — it is about energy, not lifespan. The Fate Line (running up the centre) speaks to career, direction and destiny. Your reading interprets the actual depth, length and shape of each line in your hand.
- What are the seven mounts in palmistry?
- The mounts are the raised pads at the base of each finger and around the palm, each named for a planet: Jupiter (ambition, leadership), Saturn (discipline, wisdom), Apollo (creativity, success), Mercury (communication, business), Venus (love, vitality, family), Luna or the Moon (imagination, intuition) and Mars (courage and resilience). How prominent, balanced or flat each mount is colours that area of your life, and the reading covers all seven.
- Should I photograph my left or right hand?
- Photograph your dominant hand — the one you write with — since in palmistry the dominant hand reflects your present and the life you are actively shaping. You can choose Right or Left in the form so the reading is oriented correctly. For the most accurate result, take the photo in bright, even light with your palm open and fingers slightly spread so the lines and mounts are clearly visible.
- How much does a palm reading cost, and what do I receive?
- A full palm reading costs 299 NaadCoin and is charged only after a successful reading. You receive a structured report covering your hand shape and element, all four major lines, the minor lines, the seven mounts, fingers and thumb, special marks, any auspicious Samudrika signs, love, career, health and wealth outlooks, your strengths, personal guidance and a summary — available in 24 languages and downloadable as a PDF.
