American Academy of Hand Analysis

Bethany and her Mom and Dad came by to have Bethany’s hands printed again.  Her first hand printing was in Jan. 2010, 2nd printing in May 2010, 3rd printing in Aug. 2010 and now Oct. 2011.  She is an absolute bundle of Love.  Two Big Heart Lines have developed.  One heart line is recorded as being ’short’ in an earlier print and reading.  Now that Heart Line has grown up toward the index finger.  She owns 9 Loops on 10 of  her fingerprints.

Dad is curious too!

Preparing to Print

Inking Bethany

Lookin' Good!

 Colored ink is more fun for kids!  She picked purple this time.

A big thank you to Raymond for taking the photos!

Snowflake Wyatt came by to have his hands printed just before his 2nd birthday but he was much more interested in being a kid – as he should!  We were more successful last year because we had three adults wrangling one snowflake.  I’ll know better for next time.

If it’s OK with Mom, it’s OK with me to play on the counter top with the cooking utensils.

 His hand wrapped tightly around the hair dryer.

At last a print (below) but mostly for fun.

Makena is my newest Snowflake. She accepted my invitation yesterday.  I read her hands back in Dec. 2010 and was captivated by her presence. She was 9 then.  Now she’s 10.  She has 6 arches and called herself “Mother Nature’s Daughter”.  The arches represent peace and harmony.

These little hands came to visit today. 

This Little One’s life purpose is the Successful, Innovative Communicator. When living on purpose, failure is not an option.  She is the inventor with language whether speaking, writing, singing or signing.  She is the Master Communicator, manifesting and creating the precise ingredients for success. She has already received an award for ‘communications’ at school.

Her life challenge is to feel at home regardless of any community or family environmental issues.  By experiencing the feeling of being a “Black Sheep” she’ll learn to find her right tribe where she can feel like she belongs.  This is a journey of trial and error.  At 9 and ¾ years of age she fully understands what it takes to find the right pant size.  She knows about trying on pants that are too big and too small to get to the just right size.  With her life challenge she may roam from tribe to tribe, exploring the people, attitudes and life styles until she feels ‘at home’.  Ideally, she’ll ultimately find her ‘home’ wherever her heart is.   

As she develops being ‘at home’ she may actually turn into a Master Translator for black sheep’s from a Spiritual perspective.  The loop in her Moon Zone gives her the potential to be the Spiritual Counselor where she assists others to understand their deepest self and reach the highest self.

Snowflake Talus visiting in Summer.

His thumb is low set and angled widely away from the hand (above). This shows his desire to embrace a large playground.

Talus is becoming skilled in walking the tight rope – his head and heart are entwined into one line of Union.

Together we’ll watch his intense drive shine through his creative outlet.  Here he is moving to the rhythm of sound!

May 27, 2011: River gave me the green light for printing and taking photos of her hands today.  By looking at her bare fingerprints, the ink prints and the enlarged scans of her prints, all fingerprints could be recognized.  Now I can clarify her Soul Potential and give her Mom and Dad a glimpse into her life challenges.  Those challenges are the guide posts for staying the course – on PURPOSE.

May 27, 2011: For the first time, Finn (age 4)  invited me to print and photograph his hands.  I jumped at his offering.  Little did I know I’d need to ‘fight’ for the prints that he bestowed upon me. 

This is a fabulous depiction of the natural formations you’ll find in nature.  Imagine how these ridges in the sand are formed.  There is a language in these ridges.  So too is there a language in the fingerprint patterns.  I like to think about (and read) the vibrational imprint etched in the tips of the fingers as well as the palm.

If you have eight loops (see article on loops) on your finger tips, maybe seven, you are The Lover.  The Lover is enrolled in a Life University program to experience a full range of feelings, fully and completely, in the moment with the appropriate intensity regardless of the perceived response of another.  

These loop patterns on your fingerprints equate to a Life of Love with emotional upheaval and penetrating clarity. 

Emotional clarity results when one’s own feelings are registered, experienced and released.  Clarity can only be recognized after going through the opposite of clarity.  The opposite of clarity is ambiguity, uncertainty and doubt. This can trigger rant and rave.  It’s usually easier for the Lover to stuff the feelings deeply; to tuck them away as you would with something you don’t want to look at, but can’t let go of. 

I was just explaining this process to Snowflake Logan who is 9 years old.  Logan has enough loops to qualify for the life-program of Love.  I asked Logan if he had something he didn’t want to look at, that he has tucked away.  With widened eyes of fright he answered: Gollum!   

Gollum from Lord of the Rings

Gollum is a creepy character from the movie “Lord of the Rings”. Gollum is scary and hardly trustworthy but there is a legitimate reason to pay attention to him (in the movie).  To my 9 year old listener I explained the value in looking at and processing the uncomfortable feelings.  He said. “I am not going to move beyond Gollum.  I’ll never look at him again!”  Yet, Logan won’t throw Gollum away. 

The Lover on the master path is one who stays present with his/her feelings and allows them to flow – no matter how terrifying it may seem.  There is a “Logan” in all of us who will develop.  Tools and practice helps. 

“Tapping” is a tool that can help release the scary feelings – fear, anger, excessive grief, panic, dread, pain and more.  The first part of the process is to address the ‘hard stuff’, to feel it, to find it in your body, then to release and replace with the favorable. You can replace feelings and thoughts that no longer serve you.  Please note I am not a licensed therapist.  I am offering this to you as a certified EFT Practitioner and Master Hand Analyst.  Check in with your Inner Guidance system to see if this is a suitable approach for you.  I have found it to be very effective in a vast number of scenarios. 

To try it: 

With your right index and middle finger held together, tap on the outer edge of your left hand.  This is called the Karate Chop point.  Tap there and say to yourself: 

Even though I might be nervous, or feel sick, about revealing my feelings, I completely love and accept myself and give myself permission to feel. 

Even though I’ve stuffed a lot of my feelings over the years and I didn’t have the tools, training or support to express, I now know it is safe, healthy and liberating to feel. I am free to discover, explore and feel a full range of feelings.  

Even though I may have hidden from my feelings by blaming others  or expressing through rage, I now accept full responsibility for my emotions and I DEEPLY and COMPLETELY accept every feeling that runs through me. 

I am open to the wonder and beauty of each and every feeling.  I am open to emotional clarity like never before. I choose to be open to full emotional expression, now.  I am a genuine Lover.  

Take a deep breath and be still a moment.  Relish in awareness of your deeper and more profound self.  If you feel the urge, let me know how this works for you. Email kay@handfactor.com

 With enthusiasm, Beth shared her hands, again.  I found prints we did in 2004 which I’ll post soon.  Together we’re seeing Beth-olution!
