Travel Voyages

THERE are two distinct ways of telling travels and voyages. One is from the heavy lines on the face of the Mount of Luna; the other, from the little hair-lines that leave the line of life but travel on with it. This indication is similar to that of the line of life dividing in the hand: if one branch goes around Venus, the other proceeding to the base of the Mount of Luna, it foretells that the subject will make some great change from his native land to another. It therefore follows that the journeys told by the change in the line of life are far more important than the lines on Luna, which relate more to the minor changes or travels of the subject.

It is sometimes found that long lines extend from the rascette, or first bracelet, and rise into the Mount of Luna. These are similar to the travel-lines on Luna, but much more important. When the line of fate shows a considerable and beneficial change at the same point, then these lines are prosperous and fortunate. When, however, the line of fate does not show any advantage gained at the same point, the subject will not improve, to any great extent, in worldly matters by the change.

When such a journey-line ends with a small cross, the journey will end in disappointment.

When the travel-line ends in a square, it denotes danger from the journey, but the subject will be protected.

When the line ends with an island, no matter how small, the journey will result in loss.

On the Mount of Luna the ascendant lines from the rascette are the most beneficial.

When the line crosses the hand and enters the Mount of Jupiter, great position and power will be gained by it, and the journey will also be extremely long.

When the travel-line runs to the Mount of Saturn, some fatality will govern the entire journey.

When it runs to the Mount of the Sun, it is most favourable, and promises riches and fame.

When it reaches the Mount of Mercury, sudden and unexpected wealth will arise from it.

When the horizontal lines on Luna cross the face of the mount and reach the line of fate, the journeys will be longer and more important than those indicated by the short, heavy lines also on that mount, though they may not relate to a change of country.

When they enter the line of fate and ascend with it, they denote travels that will materially benefit the subject.

When the end of any of these horizontal lines droop or curve downward toward the wrist, the journey will be unfortunate. When they rise upward, no matter how short, it will be successful.

When one of these lines crosses another, such a journey will be repeated but for some important reason.

Any square on such a line will show danger, but protection from accident or misfortune.

If the travel-line runs into the line of head and causes a spot, island, or break, it foretells some danger to the head, or some malady arising from such a journey.
