Thumb Phalanges
When the first phalange is long and strong it shows energetic will and confidence. The second phalange should
be a little longer than the first, and rather thick, as the combination shows good judgement and will. When the
first and second are of the same length, and the thumb (as a whole) is relatively longer than the fingers, it
shows a strong and sensible character. For the third phalange, see Mount of Venus.
The human thumb has been divided into three main sections, each of the sections has been allocated a
different role.
1. The topmost phalange is representative of will.
2. The middle phalange represents logic.
3. The lower or bottom section is representative of love.
Top Phalange
When the top part of the thumb is flat and thin, it is clear indication of unwillingness to take up responsibility. If
this section is quite firm and less developed, then the individual will be materialistic and egocentric.
Middle Phalange
If the middle section is well developed, it means the individual has the tendency to force others do what they
want. However, if this is thin, the person will have a lack of power to make choice in delicate circumstances,
they will be very choosy as well. If the thumb is slightly thin, the person will be fairly logical.
Bottom Phalange
In the instance, the lower part of the thumb is overdeveloped in comparison with the size of the whole thumb;
the person will always go against logic and will make personal decision with the heart. The problem is more
serious when the lower part is smaller than the other sections.
The height of the thumb is important to the rest of the fingers. Benham (a famous palmist writer) stated that a
murders thumb is often short, clubbed and does not have a middle phalanx.
Long thumbs
People with long thumbs are often self willed, fully dependent on their self's and have the desire to take control
of other people. They consider knowledge and intelligence of being more valuable in their lives. Generally they
are labelled as intellectuals in society. Such individuals have a high interest and specialization in engineering,
and mathematics.
Short Thumb
Individuals with short thumbs cannot make decisions on their own but are rather dependent on other people to
make the decisions. Their lives prominently feature emotions rather than intelligence. They have an interest in
three disciplines namely; music, poetry, and painting.

Hard Thumb
An individual with a hard thumb is quite alert and obstinate. The main characteristic of such a person is the
ability to keep anything they can close to their hearts! They do lack emotions and their lives are ruled by the
power of intelligence.
Obtuse-angled thumb
Thumbs that form obtuse angles with the index finger are normally perfectly formed, they can be long or thin.
Many refer to themselves as being gentle. Such individuals are soft and friendly. Most musicians and artists fall
into this category.
Right-angled thumb
If the thumbs makes a right angle to the index finger this means the bearer will be strong, elegant, and their
physical appearance is pillar like. The character believes in working hard all of the time. They may have short
tempers. They are strict with promises made and will always stick to their promises. On the other hand, when
offended, these people have high desire for revenge. They can never be stable friends, nor can they be worst
enemies.
Murderers thumb
As mentioned earlier on, in the past, palmists considered people with clubbed hand murderers. This was due to
then fact the thumb was considered from someone who was hot tempered. Such a thumb has short fist, and is
broad. Obviously, as time has gone on this has been proved to be untrue.
