The area of the palm under the base of your thumb, inside the Life Line, is called the Mount of Venus. If it is well shaped and medium in size, it shows a longing for companionship and love, a wish to please others, a love of beauty in every form, and a creative, sensual nature. It is usually very noticeable on the palms of singers, artists, and musicians. The Mount of Venus covers one of the most important blood vessels in the hand, the Great Palmar Arch. If this arch is large, it shows a good blood supply and strong, active blood circulation, which usually means better health. If your Mount of Venus is well developed, your health is likely to be strong, and you are usually full of energy. If your Mount of Venus is weak, your health may not be as good.
You may lack energy in that case. Even so, if the mount is medium-sized, rather than very large, it is thought to show more passion and sensuality than in people with a flat, undeveloped palm. If this mount is large or raised, it is called Positive. If it is flat or small, it is called Negative or Mental. If you have a well-shaped Mount of Venus, and the rest of your palm is normal, it is a very good sign to have. It shows attraction and magnetism between people. If it appears along with unusual or negative marks elsewhere on your palm, these tendencies become stronger. If you were born between 20th April and 20th May, and a little into 27th May, you have the Positive Mount of Venus.
You have a curious, controlling influence over other people. You are known for being very fixed and firm in your opinions, almost forceful and unyielding. People see you as determined and stubborn. But interestingly, when you love someone, you become one of the most devoted people of all, willing to serve them completely. You feel no sacrifice is too great for the one you love. You are friendly and generous, and you love entertaining your friends. You are a great host, with excellent taste in food, and you love to serve an outstanding dinner. Your taste in clothing is also excellent, so much so that people often think you are wealthier than you really are. You are good at making the most of very little. Your likes and dislikes are spontaneous, and you tend to be very outspoken and blunt, with a quick temper. Once you are angry, no one can stop you from saying what you think.
Your temper or passion cools down quickly. Once you calm down, you begin to regret your mistakes. You are easily upset by your surroundings, and you become gloomy and down if you have to live in an unpleasant or dreary environment. Whether you are male or female, you should not marry when you are very young; usually your 1st attempt at marriage is a mistake. You are so easy-going by nature that if you marry early and then discover a fault in your partner, you may end up living an unconventional life, for which you may also be criticised. You tend to become jealous once your affections are stirred, especially when the peace and harmony of your home life is disturbed for some reason.
Health
If you were born under this mount, you usually have round or short nails, which is a sign that you may have nose and throat problems. As a rule, you may suffer from headaches and ear trouble. You may notice swelling in your neck. You may also be at risk of tumours or appendicitis, and you may have intestinal problems too.
The Mount of Venus (Negative)
The Mount of Venus is Negative, or Mental, if you were born between 21st September and 20th October, and a little into the 28th of October. This mount is rarely very prominent in you. The reason is that the affection you feel does not last long, and it is more mental than physical. Your love is more spiritual than sensual or physical. You long for a soul connection more than physical closeness. There are exceptions to this, and you can check for one by seeing whether you have a long Mount of Venus on your palm. Otherwise, your mental traits are very strong. You may have sharp perception and a mental balance in all matters that other people do not have. You may have psychic experiences, premonitions, visions, and meaningful dreams.
You often spoil things because you overthink them, and you try to solve every difficulty using your mind alone. You may never be truly happy in love, because you cannot let yourself go the way people with the Positive Mount of Venus can. You hesitate and lose chances while you are still thinking things over. Because of this, love often passes you by and leaves you with regret. So you are advised to trust your 1st impressions and feelings more, and to grab the chances that fate offers you. You spend a lot of time thinking deeply about the problems of the people around you. You are often drawn to studying law, though not for your own sake but to help others. You have a great thirst for knowledge, and you often spend your life reading about deep subjects, while always staying balanced and in control of every part of your life. You can become an outstanding lawyer, doctor, or judge, though you may not become world-famous, since you tend to keep to a specific role.
Health
You tend to have problems with your physical strength. Your nerves may become exhausted, and your spirits may be low. You may suffer from depression. You may feel lonely throughout your life. You may have severe headaches and pain in your lower back. You may also suffer from kidney problems. If you are a woman, you may suffer from internal illnesses. You may often need to undergo serious operations.
