Yin and Yang
Ancient people said: "If we can understand the principles of Yin and Yang, the world will be in one palm."
Two hands are divided into Yin and Yang, the left hand is Yang, and the right hand is Yin; the back of the hand is divided into Yin and Yang, the back of the hand is Yang, and the palm of the hand is Yin; the palm of the hand is divided into Yin and Yang, the palm of the hand is Yin, and the fingers are Yang; the flow pattern in the fingerprints are also yin and Yang, the flow pattern is Yin, and the vortex pattern is Yang.
Flow pattern is commonly known as "dou", and vortex pattern is commonly known as "hurtpan". The difference between the two is whether the fingerprint circle is closed. "Dou" means that the fingerprint of the finger is a closed circle of the whole child; "dust bread" is not a closed circle, but a horse's hoof-shaped body.
There was a saying in the past, "One Dou is poor, two Dou is rich, three Dou is four Dou is selling tofu, five Dou is six Dou is opening a pawn shop, seven Dou is eight Dou is the official, nine Dou is ten Dou is enjoying the blessing." Generally speaking, "Dou" means getting, and "big firewood" means giving. Of course, this statement can only be used as a reference, and there is no need to take it too seriously.
There are three main patterns in the palm pattern: heavenly pattern, human pattern, and ground pattern. This is something that is born with, basically everyone has it.
Only a few people's sky pattern and human pattern are combined into one, and they are called "broken palm pattern". Such a hand shape is called "broken palm". There is something to say, "there are broken palm patterns on the hands, and men are rich and women are lonely and poor." This is unfounded.
There are three acquired patterns in the palm pattern: jade pillar pattern, Liuxiu pattern, and research pattern. This is what grows the day after tomorrow, some people have it, and some people don’t.
Sancai
"Three talents" refer to heaven, earth, and people. Among the five fingers, the four fingers except the thumb are divided into three sections, which are the "three talents"; the "three talents" in the palm lines are the three main patterns in nature: the sky pattern, the human pattern, and the earth pattern.
Tianshi is the emotional line in Western palmistry, human thread is the wisdom line, and earth thread is the life line.

Nine Palace Bagua
The ancients generally used to turn the palm into the Nine Palace Bagua. This has a different purpose from Western palmistry divided into nine regions by seven planets.

The bulge of the palm is called "palm palace". The raised parts of the eight trigrams on the palm are called Kan Palace, Gen Palace , Zhen Palace, Xun Palace, Li Palace, Kun Palace, Dui Palace, and Qian Palace. Plus the palms called "Mingtang", then the palms are divided into nine grids, which are called "Nine Palaces in the Palm".
