Barack Obama: the hand of power!
UK Palmist Lori Reid about the tell-tale lines that reveal Obama's complex personality.
In a few days, he will get his hands on the most powerful job in the Western world. And those hands could reveal lot about what Barack Obama will do with it. Lori Reid, a hand-reading expert, has examined the lines on the President-elect's palm, as well as the length and width of his digits - and believes she has his personality all worked out.
Miss Reid says that Mr Obama's hand (left) has extraordinarily long fingers and a long palm. These are Lori Reid's comments about Barack Obama's hands.
THE ARTICLE INCLUDES PHOTOS & 18 COMMENTS MADE BY PALMIST LORI REID ABOUT BARACK OBAMA'S HAND SHAPE, FINGERS & HAND LINES:
BARACK OBAMA: THE HAND OF POWER
Also included in the article:
BARACK OBAMA'S HANDS OF GOOD LUCK:
Taken from the WHITE HOUSE PHOTO BLOG - Barack Obama carries for good luck various things including: a bracelet belonging to a soldier deployed in Iraq, a gambler’s lucky chit, a tiny monkey god and a tiny Madonna and child.

... there are definitely some more discussions about Obama's hands, however often we (including myself) used to write his name incorrectly so it might be a bit more dificult to find these earlier discussions again - when using Sue's search tool.

I really like the pic with all the hands upon B. Obama. Really intriguing. I was wondering how to interpret the ending of his fate line at the heart line. That really makes sense, since it is clear the importance Michelle and his daughters have in his life. Thanks for all the info.

Martijn, thanks for sharing these photos and reference articles - as always, the consumate researcher and presenter of information.
What I noticed first when looking at the photos of his good luck charms are the independent head lines on both hands. In my world of hands, this is an independent thinker, somebody ahead of their time with ideas, solutions and processing information, who is not always received easily at first sharing. And with much practice, is a good communicator, on the master path. And I certainly feel he does both of these: thinks ahead of his time and is a strong communicator.
With these markings, a big challenge is going to be dealing with people 'inside the box' who are challenged to look at things in a new way. It takes much more communication with them to understand his viewpoint and perspective but I do feel he is up to the job.

"Miss Reid says that Mr Obama's hand (left) has extraordinarily long fingers and a long palm. "This hand shape fits into a category known as The Water Hand and is a common feature of artists, writers and thinkers", she says. "
I disagree with this - I think his hand is more air shaped than water. Water hands usually have thinner fingers and the hand is thinner. I recall when I was first learning hand shapes that if the hand looks like it could fit in a shoe box, it's an air hand. And this looks air to me - not only the fingers not being thin enough for water, but the palm isn't watery looking to me.

"Miss Reid says that his surprisingly long thumb is another indication of his ability as a public speaker. "
And I would add, to impose his will - strong thumbs are good at manifesting, implementing one's will. I don't see him sitting around waiting for others to take action which is a strong thumb behavior.

"Mr Obama's head line is not typical for his hand shape. It should be steeply curved, indicating extreme imagination, but is fairly straight, suggesting that he is a logical and pragmatic man - a realist."
He has a slight curve on one hand and the other is very straight - the straight one is consistent with what I see as an air hand so I see that as consistent and hands hardly ever are just one way! Thank goodness we all have a variety of approaches to things and are not all just water, air, earth or fire. And, there are some people who are strongly one element but most people have a mix of elements.

Dear Pamela,
Obamas head line in the left hand is straight and changes the direction under the gap of the Saturn and Apollon finger to the moon. i think it's a sign of "logic visions".

Here is one more picture of Obama's Left Hand. Does he has a big gap between the Life Line and Head Line? Attachment: Obama_hand.jpg (Downloaded 353 times)

Someone wrote on my FB wall today about what watery hands President Obama has -- and I had to disagree. Because, like you, I see much Air in his hand. Frankly, I see a good amount of water in Mrs. Obama's hands and a decent bit of Fire and some Earth in VP Biden's hands if memory serves. It seems we've got a nice little unit -- would be interesting to take a look at Mrs. Biden's hands too!
Best,
Peggie

Helen -- I think Pamelah mentioned this gap earlier? As I have been reading hands, I see this large space between head and life lines as an indicator of independence. This is a person who has been thinking for himself since birth most likely.
When I was studying I was confused because some folks likened it to being separate from your family and I at first took that to mean that you didn't much like them, or that you couldn't wait to get away from them. Now I have realized (as I have this on both my hands) that it's more about the sense of independence from one's family. You can love them very much but be of your own counsel. I suspect given his upbringing this would make much sense - -and the independence of thought is a wonderful trait in a leader so long as he can continue to seek counsel when necessary.

Hi Peggie,
Thank you for your respond, so as per my understanding the bigger the gap the stronger is the sense of independence. How that quality would affect the desision making? (I am not sure if it is affecting it anyhow)

Helen - -from a personal perspective first. I am adopted. I've known this my whole life, so aside from the traditional "stuff" that comes with that information, I'm a well-rounded gal (so I say).
However, my mother will assert that from the moment I learned a task as a baby I insisted on doing it myself and that includes, eating, writing, talking etc. as a youngster this was frustrating for all - I assumed because I'd learned a task I should be perfect at it - - and of course, my parents and other loving elders wanted to ease me into whatever it was.
I am also the oldest child which gave me a sense of "I'd better take care of this to make it easier on mom and dad." And ultimately, I believe my genetics kick-in to a certain extent -- I'm just DIFFERENT in thought and reasoning from my family.
So the independence for me works at constantly learning to build bridges (now in this phase of my life anyway) to connect rather than to stand alone as I did for many years.
I've heard similar stories from others with this break. When I read hands and this is there I ask if the person was raised by someone other than the biological parent - -because I'm curious and about 3-4 out of 10 were. Others were raised in the house with the bio parents but felt that they were ALSO raised by someone else (grandparent, friend, neighbor, teacher). All are staunchly independent and cannot fathom why someone would call a parent (or a spouse for that matter) before buying a car or even a house. I don't think this means rash or not-rash decisions, it's just that we're so used to relying on ourselves it doesn't occur that there may be others involved.
However, on a master path one would recognize that they're decisions have far-reaching repercussions and use their self-realization and reliance to include others that may well have differing opinions. So that they can see all sides, so to speak. They may make the decision they had come to on their own -- but will be more likely to weigh it. I see this as a trait of most wonderful and strong leaders in any area -- the abilty to hear all sides. Whether or not you have this separation, you may have the ability to weigh the opinions of others -- the challenge for some with this separation, is to learn to trust others' opinions and concepts.
Best,
Peggie

It's a head line so it's independent thinking - thinking differently from the family, tribe, clan.

I agree - I really like the energy between Obama and Biden - I remember the first time I saw them together and I could feel such a strong bond and fabulous links energetically. I'm sure there will be a time with Mrs. Biden's hands will be available in the not too distance future. I'm excited about the energy of this administration.

The other thing about an independent head line is that the holder of it is ahead of their time in thinking because they think independently - they aren't tied to having to fit in (master path) or have overcome that need from childhood. So they are actually quite free to see things, provide solutions (head stuff) and process information separately from the expectations of the clan.

Helen, after Peggie's (personal) answer ... Pamelah has answered your question as well (with a more classic perspective)!

Helen, the difference in the size of the gap relates to 'how independently do you think". The person who has a larger gap can see things, process info and provide solutions that are completely outside the box, where if the gap is smaller, maybe on some topics they are independent and some they are more inclined to go along with the tribe. On the student path, the larger the gap, the more a person could feel like they don't fit in anywhere and try to fit in so the challenge of wanting to belong always looms heavy. That is until the person realizes he or she isn't supposed to fit in, that he/she is designed to come up with ideas others haven't reached yet. Inventors or people in new industries would fit this bill. Or people who have ideas for new approaches to problems, like Obama is sharing in all his speeches.

Hi Pamelah, thank you very much for explaning it to me, it is becoming more clear to me, however I am little bit confused in one aspect.
I recently learned that our palm is devided into several sections. The top section is Mind and Bottom section is Body.
As per my understanding our Heart Line usually is located in the Mind section area that is mainly driven by emotions, now if there is a big gap between the Head Line and Life Line it will possibly move / shift the Head Line into a Mind Hand Section (closer to the Heart Line). Am I correct? So does that mean that Head Line will be more influenced by Emotions?
Am I lost? Would it mean that independent desision making comes from the emotional / intuitive / gut feeling? 
Thank you

Hi Everybody,Mr Obama's hand belongs to Water Category.Both perfect Fate Line & Sun Line denotes definite purpose of life,inwardly happy.Developed Mount of Moon will provide good imagination,Separate start of Head Line making him original thinker,courageous and fast decision taker love of independence.Finger of Jupiter bent towards the Saturn denotes thinking "I want & I will".See space between the two fingers of Mercury and Sun which denotes love of independent actions.What a magical long thumb he has!Due to long little finger he is powerful leader,efficient politician,orator.Mount of Venus giving him good health & making him generous.Termination of Heart Line denotes happiness in love matters for him,but, secretive.He will not take unnecessary risk.Yours PMS Sethi.

Thank you
dividing the hand this way is news to me and doesn't make sense - I've seen others divide the palm into 4 sections -s hte premise of what you are sharing doesn't make sense to me (where is the emotion if there are only two parts to a hand?).
