Square Conic Spatulate and Pointed Hands

Besides the four element types, palmists also classify hands by shape, following the system made famous by Cheiro and earlier European palmists.

Square hand

Square palm and square fingertips: orderly, practical, punctual and disciplined. Good for administration and business.

Conic hand

Rounded, tapering fingers: artistic, emotional, impulsive and attracted to beauty.

Spatulate hand

Fingertips that widen like a spatula: energetic, inventive, independent and restless. Good for engineering and exploration.

Pointed (psychic) hand

Long, slender hand with pointed fingers: idealistic, dreamy and spiritual, but less practical.

Mixed hand

Most people have mixed features — different finger shapes on one hand. This shows versatility and the ability to adapt to many roles.
