I wasn't planning on posting anything again quite so soon, but I had a couple of things ready, and there's not much point in waiting. So here you go. As always, click to enlarge.

Oh, and sorry I keep forgetting to mention whether stuff is worksafe or not. The following probably is; I'd give it a PG rating.

Very interesting. So how does someone know they have a gift for that sort of thing? Did you just try it out and find that you were good at it? Is it something anyone can do, or do you need special perceptive abilities?

but there are just some things I sort of...know from touching and looking at the hands in general rather than intimately analyzing the lines. That sounds a bit like nonsense, doesn't it?

No, it makes sense to me. :)

Honestly, I don't know if everyone can. I personally think so--the act of learning something like tarot or palm reading opens up the natural perceptive abilities of a person, if that doesn't sound too new-agey, but I've never tried to figure out if this is true. I just picked up a book on it because I'd always thought it was neat. I was expecting it just to be a cool parlor trick, reading a couple of lines for friends and having a laugh about it. Imagine my surprise when it turned into this strangely perceptive thing. The other weird thing is that it's exhausting--two readings in an hour and I get silly, tired, have a hard time focusing and can't do any more until I've had a rest and some carbohydrates. This isn't usually a problem, except that one accurate reading usually means that everyone in the room wants their turn too, and you don't want to turn them down because they're so excited over it.
