Palm reading guide

Palm Mounts Meaning

For readers who know the lines but want to understand the raised areas of the palm.

Quick answer

Palm mounts are the raised areas under the fingers and around the palm. They help frame a reading by showing emphasis in vitality, ambition, imagination, discipline and emotional style, but they should be read with hand shape and lines.

Mounts add context

A deep heart line means something different on a firm, active palm than on a soft, watery palm. Mounts help explain that background.

Look for balance

A mount can be full, flat, firm or overdeveloped. Balance across the palm is usually more useful than declaring one mount good or bad.

Photo limits matter

Mount shape is harder to judge from a flat photo than major lines. Good lighting and a relaxed hand make the reading more reliable.
