The Life Line represents subconscious levels of the mind. It also denotes the passage of time, illness and death, and other important life events. The ideal lifeline is said to be the semi-circular one, thin and deep, without irregularities, breaks, or crosses of any kind.
 The Head Line, Indian Palmistry
This line on the hand relates to the intellectual capacities of an individual. It also denotes the physical condition of his or her brain. The head line usually starts at a point between the aggressive Mount of Mars and the Mount of Jupiter. This line often ends at the defensive Mount of Mars but generally at the Mount of Mercury or the Mount of Luna.
The Heart Line, Indian Palmistry
 It is the last of the three Major Lines of the hand. This line depicts one`s loving capacity, emotional make-up and sexual well-being. It also denotes the healthiness of the heart. The horizontal line above the head line is the heart line. It usually starts below either the index finger or middle finger and expand across to the edge of the palm on the side of the little finger.
