Nails are the mirror of our personality, Looking into which the
expert reader can unnoticeably observe all characteristics of a
person through one's nails. In this article, a systematic method
has been projected to peep through the nails of a person and read

HEALTH AND NAILS :

Indian palmists and chiromancers, after through study of nails

have described that by studying through the nails of a person, a
lot much could be predicted about one's health, nature and
character and about the coming events in the person's life.

It is mentioned in Garun Puran that a person whose nails are like

frost, is a born impotent. Person with zig-zag nails is a pauper.

Garbh Samhita reveals that a newly born child if without nails for
a year, or shell shaped, small, worn out nails are indicative of
extreme poverty. On the contrary, subjects with clear, smooth,
pinkish nails are fortunate. Many such descriptions are found in
Shastras. The nails in the hand of a person reflect his fate or in
other words, the nails are thewindows to peep into a person's life
and through these windows is perceived about the culture,
thoughts and work style of the subject.

Also scientifically, nails are very important in the life of a human

being, because at the top ends of fingers are provided plenty of
nerves which are very sensitive. Nails are of the following types :-

The types of nails described above have the following effects :

Such subjects suffer largely from nerve diseases and heart
disorders.

This type of nail is short both in length and width. Such nails often
are visible with knotty fingers and look like a dot at fingers end.
Such subjects are mostly stupid and easily excited, but if this type
of nail appear in female's hand, she would be a disciplined, strict
and with masculine characteristics and likes to rule over her

Persons having such nails are scary by nature. Usually they suffer

These subjects always hide their mistakes and throw blames on

others. They are critic by nature.

6. Broad and Square Nail :-

Subjects with this type having pink colour and round shape at the

heart. If They miss pinkish colour of the nails, they are not
completely guileless.
7. More in Width and Short in Length Nail :-

These are analytical persons. They are highly successful

mannered, diligent and prudent people with enough self-reliance.

13. Small Triangular Nail :-

These are subjects who love seclusion and are scholarly and
academic. But few besides these qualities are lazy and careless
also. If apprised of their potential, they can prove to be very
useful persons.

14. Pale/Yellow Nail :-

This type are cheats to the core, liars, and even gamblers. They
are always dogged by poverty.

15. Blue Nail :-

If the nails are blue at the root, the subject is weak hearted and
suffer from bronchial diseases.

Nails of Ladies's Hands :-

Ladies with their pink nails-pinkish and slightly projected, are

fortunate ones. They are materially prosperous. Contrary to this,
if the nails are rough, spotted and without lustre, tending to
yellowish or whitish colour, the subjects are poor and addicted to
corruption. Their lives are always full of scarcities, worries,
mental agonies and they have their lives with uncertainly,
according to "Bhavishya Puran."

Ladies with very short nails on their fingers of hand, are of

irascible nature. It will not be too much to say that ladies with
such nails are like Mahakali. They always want to keep their
spouses under control. The husbands of this type of ladies should
behave their wives carefully and politely. The children also are
under control of this kind of ladies. They are ladies with good
character. If the nails are short with their colour pale, the
subjects are violent liars. and are crooked to the core.

Marks, Spots and Lines over nails :-

1. If there are black spots or dots on the nails, such subjects have
criminal and sensuous tendencies. They may suffer from skin and
blood related diseases.

2. White spots on the nails are indicative of obstruction in blood

circulation. If the spots are lustrous white, this indicates mutual
and assertive love.
3. A white crescent at the root of nail is a good sign. Such
subjects are always progressive.

Index Finger :- A white crescent on the nail of the index finger,

generates the circumstances conductive to progress and profit.
But, if there is a black spot on the nail, this indicates a sudden
loss of wealth and deficit in business. In case the dots is white,
the subjects gains in business and commands respect.

Middle Finger :- A white spot on the nail of the middle finger with
a crescent make the subject to undertake voyages, bring wealth
and gain prosperity. If there is a black spot or black dot, some
near and dear helps to resolve the problems and helps in troubles.
And if there is a projected spot with palish yellow shade of the
nail, the subject is rewarded according to the efforts made, but
such a case harms the wife and brother of the subjects.

Ring FInger :- If there is a crescent on the nail of Apollo, the

subject achieves success in mechanical and machinary work. If
there is a white spot or dot, the person takes interest in religious
activities. Such person developes affinity for studies. If there is a
black spot, the subject may suffer from allegations or blames and
loses respects of others.

Small Finger :- A crescent on the nail of small finger indicates

gain in business field. White dot is not good and indicates
unsuccess and loss to the subject.

Lines on the nails :- The lines on the nails show their real effect.
Vertical lines on the nails indicate nervous disorder. Vertical lines
on the nails indicate nervous disorder. Vertically curved and
unlevelled lines indicate disorders of blood pressure and blood.

This also indicates damage to the nervous system. Whenever

horizontal lines are visible on the nails, it should be understood
that disease is finding its way into the body.
Nails: The shape, length, width of nails give indication of the personality
and health of a person. I usually study the health part as that is the
most important.

Broad nails with length being just little less than the width. Very good
health especially if the blood colour seen is pink and if red then you can
expect a person to be very physically romantic as he has lots of energy
and magnetic power to attract others especially the opposite sex. I am
using He but it could be either. I have met boys having red blood who
have had many sexual escapades with opposite sex and still not
committed to anyone. A Doctor who was married could not help it as
women seem to be attracted to him like bees to a honey. Red shows the
excess side of the subject.

Narrow long nails: Narrow health, narrow mind.

Slightly narrow and long nail: Again slightly narrow health and slightly
narrow mind. Everything is logical reasoning.

Very short nails but broad. I once met 3 brothers who all had such nails.
They were always ready to pick on others. They saw shortcomings in
other quite easily as they are good critics but at the same time irritate
others by negative comments of others. All the three brothers would
bite their nails and claimed their nails were short only because of this
habit. I told them the area the nail covered is also short and hence it
does not reflect on their biting the nail. If these people have Mars Mount
prominent and negative and colour of blood red and hair on the reverse
of the palm also red, thumb rigid then it best to keep away from such
people for they will wear you out through their criticism.

If the skin covers the nails at either end (on your finger) then you are
secretive and if the skin does not cover them them you are open
hearted/minded.

Nails cover the thin skin and below this skin there are various
arteries/veins flowing. Germs in blood at such place reflects through
the skin on the nails and we get ridges on the nails which is the best
indication of drawback in health. Every nail depicts the type of health
defects in your body and this could also be confirmed by what you see
on the palm. Diseases on the palm are seen much before a Doctor can
find out about your health status.

If the blood is light pink/light blue or Blue visible on the nails then the
pumping of blood to the heart is less and hence the oxygen supply
thereby is reduced thus reducing the colour from Pink to light pink
(slight heart defect) then it turns to light blue (major heart defect) and
if it is blue then severe heart attack of even heart failure is possible.
Other indications in the palm will also indicate this. This colour of blood
is seen on Apollo or Ring or finger next to the smallest finger.

The nail which looks like a bulb on a finger, usually fond on a thumb,
indicates Pleuracy. I have seen quite a few people with this indication.
In fact one of my friend had this and I just opened the Palmistry Book
and showed him the similar thumb nail. He confirmed it and said he was
recovering from this stage.
