The mounts on the hand differ depending on your nature, character, and temperament. These mounts are seen more clearly in people from southern countries than in people from northern countries. People with clear, raised mounts are usually more emotional than people with flat palms and undeveloped mounts. The mounts on the hand are named after the seven planets believed to influence life on earth. These planets are the Moon, Sun, Mercury, Venus, Saturn, Mars, and Jupiter. Greek scholars gave these mounts their names, based on the traits of these seven planets. These are:
- Venus stands for love, passion, and sensuality.
- Mars stands for energy, fighting spirit, and courage.
- Mercury stands for intelligence, science, and business.
- The Moon stands for imagination, changeability, and romance.
- The Sun stands for brilliance, success, and productivity.
- Jupiter stands for ambition, control, and power.
- Saturn stands for reserve, seriousness, and sadness.
The Mounts of the Hand
In astrology, the earth is said to be surrounded by the 12 houses of the 7 main planets of the solar system. Astrologers and astronomers describe the Zodiac as the path of the universe, a band about 16 wide where the planets move. The Zodiac is divided into 12 houses, or signs, of 30 each. On average, the sun moves into a new sign every 30 days. One solar year is complete when the sun finishes the full 360 Zodiac circle after 12 months. The sun, which shapes our lives, is one of the great mysteries of the universe. It is almost 330,000 times bigger than the earth. As it moves into each new Zodiac sign, it changes the magnetic effect of that sign on the earth. So it makes sense that someone born in April and someone born in May have different traits and usually a different fate, since character is closely tied to destiny. The tables below show how the mounts of the hand relate to health and illness, based on birth date. Using this together with palm reading can help you give an accurate reading, and it can be fascinating both for you and for the people whose palms you read.
