Editorial Policy

How we research, write, check and correct every palmistry guide on this site.

Last updated: October 20, 2026

This policy explains how we research, write, check and update everything on Palmistry Palm Reading. We publish it so you can judge for yourself whether to trust what we write.

Our principles

  1. Palmistry is presented as tradition, not science. We describe what palmists traditionally read in a sign and never present it as proven fact.
  2. No fear. We don’t publish readings that predict death, illness, accidents, divorce or disaster. Old texts sometimes did; we say so and explain the modern reading.
  3. No made-up facts. No invented statistics, fake reviews, fake testimonials or unverifiable celebrity claims.
  4. No remedies or upsells. We don’t sell gemstones, rituals or “fixes” for palm lines, and we don’t tell readers to buy anything to change their fate.
  5. Answer first. Every guide gives a direct answer at the top, then the detail.

Who writes and reviews

Every guide is written and reviewed by Clara Wynn (pen name), a palmist with four years of experience in classic Western and Indian palmistry. Each guide shows the author and the date it was last reviewed.

Sources we use

  • Classic palmistry texts, such as Cheiro’s Language of the Hand (1894) and William G. Benham’s The Laws of Scientific Hand Reading (1900).
  • Indian and Chinese traditions, including Samudrika Shastra, so readers can see where traditions agree and differ.
  • Reliable references for factual claims, such as MedlinePlus (U.S. National Library of Medicine) for medical information, peer-reviewed studies for research findings, and established dictionaries for terminology.

Sources for checkable facts are listed at the bottom of the relevant guide.

How a guide is made

  1. We look at what readers actually ask about a line or sign.
  2. We write the traditional meaning from our sources and reading practice, comparing Western, Indian and Chinese views.
  3. We check every factual, medical or research claim against a reliable source, and remove anything we can’t verify.
  4. We review the guide for tone: calm, clear and free of fear-based predictions.
  5. We publish it with a “last reviewed” date, and review it again when needed.

Health, money and life claims

Palm lines can’t diagnose health conditions, predict lifespan, forecast income or decide relationships. When a palm feature has a real medical meaning, like the single palmar crease, we explain what doctors say and recommend speaking to a doctor. Read our full Disclaimer.

How we use AI

  • The palm scanner uses AI image analysis to identify lines in your photo and match them to traditional meanings. Its readings follow the same principles as this policy: no fear, no health or death predictions.
  • Our guides may use digital tools for research and editing, but every published guide is reviewed, fact-checked and approved by Clara before it goes live. A person is responsible for every word.

Corrections and updates

If we get something wrong, we fix it. Email [email protected] with the page link and the problem. We review every report, correct confirmed errors promptly, and update the “last reviewed” date on the guide.

Independence
