Significations of minor lines - Line of Intuition

This line is seldom seen in a hand. When it is present, it runs like a Sister line to the Line of Mercury or the Line of Health or Liver.

This line when present, lies at the side of the hand near the percussion. It rises on the Mount of Moon, curves inwards towards the palm and ends on or near the Mount of Mercury. Its position is near the line of Mercury and is often mistaken for that line.  Its distinguishing feature is its curve. 

The line of Intuition is more often found in the philosophic, the conic and the Psychic hands than in any other of the seven types. 

A deep clear line indicates the greatest amount of intuition and if broken or defective otherwise, it signifies the limitation 
of the line’s effectiveness. 

In judging the effectiveness of the line, consideration should be given to the character of the hand in which it is present.

In a hand with long fingers, pointed tips, a prominent Mount of Moon and the head line is sloping the subject would be strongly psychic.  He would have visions and strong presentiments of danger and he would be a strong believer in signs and omens.  A clear line as described as above is generally found in the hand of clairvoyants and 
Spiritualist Mediums.

Some peculiarities of the line and their significations are as follows:

Peculiarity:  Intuition line cuts the line of Liver (Mercury or health)
