Can Anyone Learn to Read Hands?

Absolutely anyone can learn to read hands.

All you need is a  commitment to studying, a good teacher and time and energy to practice.  Hand Analysis is replicable and is easily taught by a skilled hand analyst.  That’s what drew me into it in the first place. 

I’m often skeptical, which is why I so enjoyed Emily’s post about her constant battle with letting the woo-woo out of the closet.  Even though I’ve been drawn to ancient, esoteric and metaphysical things for years (starting probably with the 5th grade research report I did on Astrology) I’ve always been “on guard” for charlatans and people trying to put one over on me.  (There’s probably some great psychology behind that confession!)

When I had my hands read by a professional hand analyst for the first time I was completely and totally sucked in.  I admit, I was skeptical but curious going into the call.  I don’t think I put a lot of stock in the idea that a hand reading would make a big difference in my life overall, but I thought it would be at best fun and at worst, interesting.

Imagine my surprise when I was completely sucked in because Baeth knew so much about me and compassionately showed me all the possibilities that were before me — the ones that scared  me and intrigued because they were so BIG and beautiful and the ones that felt comfortable, but scary in another way — sticking with what I’d been doing all along. 

After the reading I went on a journey searching for information about this “magic” of hand analysis, and when Baeth mentioned that she’d be teaching a small group of life-travellers like me to read hands and become certified I was intrigued.  Bombarding her with questions, I continually asked “Are you SURE I can learn how to do this?  It seems like it’s so involved.”

She assured me that, indeed, I could learn to read hands.  Just like learning a language or how to play an instrument — all I had to do was commit, show up, study and practice.  I was intrigued.  I now realize that hand analysis is the perfect tool for people like me to start opening up and playing with our psychic muscles.  During my initial studies, I was hooked and determined to learn the data of hands – what each fingerprint, finger, mount, line and more meant.  I really wouldn’t venture at all to what my “gut” was saying -– I just wanted to rely exclusively on the data in the hand, and see for myself that this information could be taught and replicated even to someone who, like me, insisted they weren’t terribly intuitive.

Now after 4 years and more than a 1000 pairs of hands I’m definitely more open to following the data “down the rabbit hole” and into the places my “gut” takes me.

  In other words, I’ll look at fact in a person’s hands and extrapolate from there how all the data in the hands might play out in a person’s life.  That  leads me to coming up with real stories or anecdotes to help my clients.  When I do this – tell stories based on the information in the hands I’m almost always told that the scenarios I “picked out of my imagination” were almost exactly the same things happening in the client’s real life. 

For me, learning to read hands was more than a new way to make a living, it was a tool to opening up a new way of life that helps me to help people like you. 

So yes, anyone, who is willing to show up, commit, do the work and continuously study and practice can learn to read hands.  When I learned to play the flute, I was frequently frustrated and ready to throw in the towel — because it seemed like it was taking FOREVER to learn to play (I’d already been a clarinetist and a pretty skilled pianist, so this flute thing really bugged me!)  I kept practicing.  On the days that were fun, I was hitting notes, learning new music easily and loving every nuance of my instrument.  On the days that pissed me off, I was off key, the pads on the valves were sticking and I couldn’t remember which notes were which.  Not surprisingly I always got better after the worst days.  It was worthwhile when Jethro Tull  called and asked me to take a solo with them when they were on tour in New Jersey. 

I’m kidding.

They didn’t call and the closest I got to a solo was a lovely little trill during a Holiday pageant in church.  So what?  It was fun and I now can say proudly that I know how to play the flute (and the piano and the clarinet and to a lesser extent trumpet).

That’s the way you need to think about learning to read hands — the bad days lead you the better days.  Maybe like me and my trip down musical lane, you’ll enjoy yourself, learn a great deal about yourself and others and meet some funny, exuberant and goofy people who light you up and then eventually move onto other passions that make more sense at the time for you.

Or maybe, you’ll find the hands endlessly fascinating, a true gift of insight into another person’s soul and continue learning and growing and sharing the gift with all those you meet throughout your life – or until another passion comes along that makes more sense for you. 

You might find yourself somewhere between those options– but nonetheless, you can learn to read hands!
