Long Fingers

Characteristics:
-Talented
-Patient
-Often NOT self-motivated

I tend to be more of the impatient type lately but its all mostly right :)

Fingers sitting on a gently curve indicate a balanced personality.
Yay,I think this is pretty correct.

Thin fingers

Characteristics:
-Precise
-Logical
-Diplomatic
I agree with all these.Unfortunatly I may tend to be too precise at times though.
A short Jupiter finger (one that does not extend past the first phalange of the middle finger) indicates:

-Lack of confidence
-Inability to handle constructive criticism
-Caring personality
-Very susceptible to manipulation
-Need to learn to have more confidence in themselves and in their judgements
Unfortuatly I do agree with all of these charateristics.

A long Saturn finger (longer than all other fingers on the hand) indicates:

-Tendency to be serious
-Great ability to concentrate and absorb study
-Emotional and financial security are very important
All too true as well.

A long Apollo finger (almost as long, or as long as, the middle finger) indicates:

-Family oriented
-Likes peace and harmony
-Willing
-Approachable
-Energetic
-Sociable
-Creative
-Romantic
-Loves music, the arts, and beautiful things
Yes to all the above.This makes up most of my personality actually.My friends often use these trems to describe me.

I have a question about the mercury finger. Mine comes to the top of the middle phalange.It doesn't extend into the top at all.What would this describe about me?

[Kalika]

Great job!

[aislin_ryann]

Ok my fingers. I am just going to type this rather than copy and paste! lol

I have long fingers.
Talented - Yes
Patient - Pretty much, I have my times though!
Not Self-Motivated - so true

They are sitting on a gentle curve, indicating a balanced personality. Umm, I guess so. I am not sure on this one.

I have knobby knuckles.
Cautious - Yes, sometimes a little over cautious
Sometimes Lazy - Oh yes

My Jupiter Finger comes to the mid section of the first phalang my Saturn finger. So, it is short.
Lack of confidence - Yes
Inability to handle constructive criticism - Sometimes (So watch out Kalika! lol) It really depends on who it is from.
Caring Personality - Yes
Very Susceptible to manipulation - NO this is not me.
Need more confidence - Yes, yes, yes....

My Jupiter finger is low set.
Very Shy - Yes, normally
Low Self Esteem - Yes
Little or no courage when confronted - NO, not me. I am shy and I don't have much confidence, but I deal well with confrontation.
Eager to Please - Yes, I want everyone to be happy
Prefers to be a follower - no, I like being a leader, once I get to know you. Until I am comfortable with the situation, I am usually the "rebel"

My Saturn finger is long.
Tendency to be serious - Yes
Great ability to concentrate and absorb study - I have A.D.D. so it is hard to get started, but once I am comfortable, I can concentrate.
Emotional and Financial security are very important - Yes

My Apollo Finger is long.
Family Oriented - yes
Lakes Peace and harmony - Yes
Willing - yes
approachable - yes
energetic - most of the time
sociable - sometimes
creative - yes
romantic - kind of
Loves music, arts, and beautiful things - yes

My apollo finger is set below Saturn meaning a practicle nature. This is pretty accurate.

My Mercury Finger is short.
Shyness - yes
Reserved Personality - yes
Lack of Confidence - yes
Introverted - yes
Dislikes public speaking - I hate it!

My mercury finger is set really low on my hand, indicating that I like to study and practice in private. I love my private time and I don't like for others to see or hear what I am working on.

My mercury and apollo fingers are inclinded to each other indicating sympathetic, good listener, and a sage advisor. This is very accurate.

Here's mine.

Long Fingers - Characteristics: Talented, Patient, Often NOT Self-Motivated. I am talented in many ways, patience is something I learned to have a little bit of at this point and I actually am self-motivated, but not rabidly so. I have enough to get me going when I need to.

Thin Fingers - Characteristics:: Precise, Logical and Diplomatic. I am all three most definitely!

A short Jupiter finger: Lack of confidence, Inability to handle constructive criticism, Caring personality, Very susceptible to manipulation, Need to learn to have more confidence in themselves and their judgements.

I was seriously lacking in confidence when I was younger but have gotten more confidence along the way though I still have that lack there at times. It would tear me up to be criticized in any way but I've also learned to handle it as being help and not a personal attack. I have been manipulated in my life many times and may be again before it's over. And I am still learning to have self-confidence and myself and my judgements though I'm much better than I used to be.

A low set Jupiter finger indicates: Low self-esteem (yep, especially when I was younger, still have it now sometimes), Inclined to be very shy (painfully as a child and still shy in certain situations now), Caring Personality (very much so), Little or no courage when confronted (I used to cower and avoid, not I can at least stand up for myself and others when needed), Eager to please (yep, when younger it was bad, now not so much but still there at times), Prefers to be a "follower" (I'm no leader! :) I would rather just go my own way and be on my own)

A long Saturn finger indicates: Tendency to be serious (Oh yes), Great ability to concentrate and absorb study (me to a T!), Emotional and financial security are very important (very much so)

A long Apollo finger indicates: Family oriented (they mean everything to me or to people I consider my family), Likes peace and harmony (YES), Willing (ummm....I guess), Approachable (very much so), Energetic (yep, sometimes have too much energy), Sociable (I am in a way), Creative (my middle name!), Romantic (very much so), Loves music, the arts and beautiful things (YES)

Apollo finger set below the Saturn finger indicates: a person of practical nature. I am that very much so.

I would say I am a mix when it comes to the Mercury finger. It's not long (extends well into the first phalange of the Apollo finger) and it's not short (extending only 1/2 way into the second phalange of the Apollo finger or shorter). My Mercury finger is exactly even with the first phalange of Apollo finger, neither above that joint nor below it.

A long Mercury finger (extends well into the first phalange of the Apollo finger) indicates:

-Curious mind - Have that in spades!
-Journalistic abilities - Yep
-Creative - Big yes!
-Attracts the interesting and intellectual - I suppose
-Talented public speakers and teachers - *cringes and hides*
-Good negotiators - If I need to be
-Good organizers - If I were any better I'd be considered seriously anal. :)

A short Mercury finger (extending only ˝ way into the second phalange of the Apollo finger or shorter) indicates:

-Shyness - got it!
-Reserved personality - Yep
-Lack of confidence - Yep
-Introverted - Yep
-Dislikes public speaking - Now we're talking!

A Mercury finger set low on the hand indicates a person who prefers to study and practice their numerous talents in private. This is very, very true!

When the Saturn and Apollo fingers are inclined towards one another, this indicates a person who needs to satisfy family and business commitments equally in order to be content. This is very much so.

When Mercury and Apollo fingers are inclined towards one another, this indicates a person who is sympathetic, a good listener, and also sage advisor. I am very much the first two.....the last, I've never thought that way of myself, but suppose it applies quite nicely.
