Chirology (Hand reading)
Insights, myths & misconceptions

Hand reading is an ancient craft, that has developed into a modern art, known as Chirology. The art of hand reading requires methodical analysis of a number of different features and aspects of your hand, including the lines, fingerprints and form of the hand.
Your fingerprints and palm prints are the map to your true self. They form as you do in your mothers womb. They do not change and thus they are with you for life. They are unique to you, hence they identify why you are the way you are.

The lines on your hand form before you have even formed the ability to close your hand. They identify how your unique, individual traits and perceptions have manifested.
Hand reading should not be confused with Palmistry. Hand reading does not tell your fortune or future. You are the one making your life decisions, I am not a psychic and as such can not predict what choices you will make or what events you will experience over the course of your life.
A hand reading is for you, if you are seeking a deeper understanding of yourself. Are you ready to acknowledge, accept and understand your true self? Is it time to make better choices, decisions and to have a more peaceful and harmonious relationship with yourself?

A little bit about me...
Born and raised in Australia, I relocated to New Zealand in 2014 with my (now) husband.
From a young age, I have always felt the need to understand why we are the way we are. I have always shared the knowledge and insights gained wherever and however I can with... well, anyone interested in listening. But none of it means anything if not put into practice. So I am always aiming to put all that I learn into practice, and by doing so - Reiki & Chirology Therapy has manifested.
I first experienced Reiki in 2017. Many years later I became a qualified Reiki practitioner. Reiki is an experience that can be profound, or simplistic, the experience is unique to the individual. I give myself, my spaces, my plants & my animals Reiki on a daily basis.
I have also completed a Diploma In Counselling and Psychology. This was an introductory course and provided me with the tools and information I needed to refine and expand my natural skills.
It highlighted a desire to further understand myself, so I embarked on a intensive self discovery journey and completed a number of courses in Chirology. Understanding myself through the map of my hand gave me insight into why I think the way I do and how that impacts on the way I perceive and experience life.
I believe that there is not one moment where my story began, it is a culmination of events, experiences & choices that started well before I was even born.
So if you too, wish to self heal and to better understand who you truly are, then Reiki & Chirology Therapy will provide you with the tools and insights you need.
