Palm reading guide
Best Palm Photo for Reading
For upload-intent users who need practical image guidance before scanning.
Use soft light
Window light or a bright room is better than a flash. Strong shadows can make faint lines look broken or hide small marks.
Keep the palm flat
Relax the fingers and open the palm without stretching too hard. A forced hand can change the apparent depth and curve of the lines.
Scan both hands when possible
A single clear hand is enough to begin. Two hands make the reading more personal because the report can compare differences.
Questions people ask
Should my fingers be open or closed?
Keep them relaxed and slightly open. Avoid curling the fingers into the palm.
Should I use flash?
Usually no. Soft bright light is better because flash can wash out fine lines.
