Chiromancy – Swimming in the Sea of Time

Hand shapes correspond to the four elements, Fire, Air, Water and Earth, and thus also correspond directly to the four Tarot suits, the Wand/Fire Hand, the Sword/Air Hand, the Cup/Water Hand and the Pentacle/Earth Hand.

The Wand/Fire Hand has a long (rectangular rather than square) palm, longer than the fingers; the fingers too may be quite long, but never as long as the long palm (if they were equally long, it would be a Cup/Water Hand).

The Wand/Fire Hand indicates a fiery, charismatic nature, and a natural leader and/or showman, though not necessarily an extrovert: many performers in the world of music and theatre and film have the Wand/Fire Hand but “off-stage” can be quite introverted.

Here are a few examples of Fire Hands that I found on a quick Search:

Boris Johnson, too, seems to have Fire Hands:

As, by the look of it here, does Donald Trump:

I was going to draw attention to what these people have in common, then realised that one very obvious thing was they were all men! So here are a couple of famous women who both seem to have Wand/Fire Hands:

At this point it occurred to me, as a numerologist, to do a quick check on their names (with the Chaldean system I always use) and these were the results:

Bill Gates – 7
George W Bush – 2
Michael Jackson – 8
Boris Johnson – 3
Donald Trump – 3
Angela Merkel – 3
Monica Bellucci – 2

The three 3s are interesting, aren’t they, given that all three also share Fire Hands? Returning to the Tarot, which would their card be, the Three of Wands or the Knight of Wands (12 = 3)?

They are all 12s:
Boris Johnson – 48 = 12 = 3
Donald Trump – 48 = 12 = 3
Angela Merkel – 39 = 12 = 3
and it seems to me their card would be the Knight of Wands ( a 12), for unlike Greta Garbo and Will Smith, for instance (who are both 30 = 3, and therefore 3s but not 12s) Boris Johnson, Donald Trump and Angela Merkel are all, in their own idiosyncratic ways, born crusaders.
