Figure 41: Murderer’s Thumb

If the tip section (willpower) is longer than the second phalange (logic), the person will act without thinking the matter through. People with this formation make many mistakes as they go through life, but pick themselves up again each time, and keep on going. Often, they become extremely successful, since they do not know when to stop.

It is much more common to find people with a second (logic) phalange that is longer than the first. These people get plenty of ideas, but never quite get around to acting on them. They procrastinate and dream about all the great things they are going to do one day.

The tips of the thumb follow the system of hand shapes that d’Arpentigny devised one hundred and fifty years ago.

If the tip of the thumb is square in shape, the person will be down-to-earth, practical, capable, and have a strong sense of what is right and wrong.

If the tip is spatulate, the person will have an inventive mind and an inquisitive nature. He or she will always keep busy.

If the tip is conic, the person will be graceful, charming, and refined. A conic tip often belongs to a thumb that has a “waisted” second phalange. This means that the second phalange curves inwards on both sides and appears to have a waist. People with a waisted second phalange are diplomatic, caring, and tactful. If you know someone who can say “no” in such a gentle way that you are halfway down the street before you realize what he or she has said, you will know someone with a waisted second phalange.

If the tip appears to taper towards the end, the person will be a deep thinker, who can convey bad news in a gentle, caring manner.

If the tip is flat and broad, the person will be methodical and careful, deliberating at length before acting.

You will also occasionally come across what is known as the “murderer’s thumb.” The first phalange of this type of thumb appears to be a knob resting on top of the second phalange (figure 41). It indicates that the person will be tolerant and patient for a long while, but then something trivial will cause them to erupt in anger. This is probably the reason why this thumb gained its bad name. In fact, this type of thumb is usually inherited. Many years ago I read the palm of a man with “murderer’s thumbs,” and he told me that his father, grandfather, and infant son all had identical thumbs.

You will now understand that palmistry is much more than the lines on the palm. In the next chapter we are going to take everything a step further by looking at the mounts.
