Great Time in Duluth!
I met lots of fabulous, new people (and hands) at Duluth this past weekend! It was a nice venue for an expo (in spite of construction) and I had FUN. My shadow, Troy Schmitt, and I were right across from Brigid’s House (official bookstore) and loved it. I even got two new shirts from BH…cute!
One thing I noticed was how many people had Social Hermit heart lines. They love people, enjoy being around them, but gotta have that recharge time.
There were also so many families there, I loved seeing entire families at the metaphysical expo. Next year it will be in September, which will be better timing for all, I do believe.
PreHistoric Hand Analysis
The reading of hands is nothing new; it is believed to date back as far as 5,000 years to the ancient cultures of Egypt, China and India. Of course, as an esoteric art, hand reading or palm reading has been around since we have had hands! I love to imagine our prehistoric ancestors sitting and comparing grubby hands as they sat around the campfire gnawing on some mammoth bone or another.
The Ancient Chinese use inked fingerprints on a vast variety of legal documents…everything from land deeds to contracts to land debts. By 246 BC, Chinese officials pressed their fingerprints in clay seals, which were then used to seal official documents.(see picture) There is proof of a trial around 300 BC where a handprint was used as evidence in a theft trial. When silk and paper came into widespread use parties put their handprints on legal document. Fingerprints were able to be used to establish identity in courts over business conflicts, but historians are not sure if the Chinese were aware of the uniqueness of the fingerprints or if there were some type of spiritual significance given to the touching of the finger to the paper. I like to think BOTH.
In 14th century Persia, many official government papers had fingerprints used for identification and one government official, a doctor, noticed that no two fingerprints were exactly alike.
In many ancient, and some not so ancient, cultures the punishment for committing an offense was the cutting off of the hand that was used to commit the crime.
GREAT DAY at Heart and Hara Studio
I was blessed to be invited to read hands at Heart and Hara Studio, Amber Hunt’s amazing healing space, in Pine River, MN. There was even a parade, I assumed it was in my honor and was a bit surprised to learn it was NOT!
Amber has a fabulous energy, grounded, connected and totally emanates an energy of Earth and Fire, I loved sharing her space! It is so warm, cozy and decorated perfectly. I will post a few more pictures over the next few days.
The hands I read were attached to lovely people and I made some true heart connections.
I will share one little anecdote…the last person I read for had a marking that pointed toward some potential ability to connect with those on the Other Side. So, I mentioned that if she were to want to connect with “Aunt Tilly” on the Other Side to set her intention and so on and so forth. She got a really funny look on her face and her eyes got WIDE and she asked where I got the name “Tilly”. I told her it just popped into my head and she told me she DOES have an Aunt Tilly who is deceased….
“Well, Aunt Tilly has a message for you, I do believe,” was my response! Whether that WAS the message, an acknowledgement of her love from the Other Side or what, Aunt Tilly made herself KNOWN yesterday!

Cancer Drug Causes Fingerprints to Disappear

Report: Xeloda caused redness, peeling to 62-year-old’s fingers
LONDON - When a cancer patient from Singapore traveled to the United States last year, he discovered an unusual side effect of his medication: missing fingerprints.
The 62-year-old man was taking capecitabine, or Xeloda, to treat head and neck cancer. Upon arriving in the U.S., immigration officials asked him for his fingerprints. But the drug had caused so much redness and peeling to his fingers that the patient, identified only as Mr. S., had none.
Customs officials held Mr. S. for four hours before deciding he was not a security threat, according to the case published Wednesday in a letter to the Annals of Oncology journal.
Capecitabine is a common cancer drug, routinely given to patients with head, neck and kidney cancers as well as lymphomas and leukemias. Doctors said very few patients temporarily lose their fingerprints while on Xeloda, but it does happen.
“Most patients will complain they’re having difficulty holding things or sensing things,” said Dr. Otis Brawley, chief medical officer of the American Cancer Society, who was not linked to the case. “I’ve never had a patient running into a problem with police authorities, but this is not an exaggeration. It could actually happen.”
After returning home, Mr. S. asked his oncologist, Dr. Eng-Huat Tan at the National Cancer Centre in Singapore, to write a letter certifying he was on capecitabine.
Surprised by Mr. S.’s predicament, Tan recommended in his letter to the journal that patients taking capecitabine carry a similar doctor’s note if they are traveling to the United States.
Unlike most other countries, American immigration officials take two fingerprints from foreign visitors.
Tan said up to 40 percent of patients on the drug develop a side effect known as hand-foot syndrome, which causes redness, peeling, numbness and tingling. Of those patients, only a small percentage actually lose their fingerprints.
“Patients probably would not notice anything until they travel to the U.S. and discover to their horror that their fingerprints are gone,” Tan said. Mr. S. was Tan’s only patient to report such a predicament, but Tan said a handful of other cases were described on cancer blogs.
Once patients stop taking the drug and apply ice to their hands, their fingerprints will return in about a month.
Brawley guessed that U.S. officials became suspicious because criminals sometimes erase their fingerprints with sandpaper or dip them in acid, which would appear very similar to how Mr. S’s fingers looked.
But he says there are too many side effects from Xeloda, including a weakened immune system and increased cancer risk, that it would be unlikely anyone would take the drug for less-than-honorable reasons.
“No criminal in his right mind would take this drug to try to get rid of his fingerprints,” Tan said.
LIfe Purpose? In MY Hands?

You keep talking about Life Purpose, what exactly does that MEAN?
Your Life Purpose is NOT your job, or even your value system…it is the spark of a theme that underlies all of what you do. For instance, if your Life Purpose is the Artist in the Spotlight, then you would have an innate need to be in the public eye presenting your creative life work. The Mentor is fulfilled by sharing all they know and nurturing others along on THEIR paths. This is just the tip of the iceberg of this system. There are soo many combinations of Life Purposes and nuances found in the fingerprints.
Let’s get started on YOUR Life Purpose.
PS - The woman in the picture above has blueprints (teehee).
Eckhart Tolle and Purpose

Here is a bit of intro info on Hand Analysis and how it can help YOU. There will be much more info on Hand Analysis in the next few posts, so add me to your RSS or whatever works for you!
I completely believe in what Eckhart Tolle tells us…“Awareness is the power that is concealed within the present moment. … The ultimate purpose of human existence, which is to say, your purpose, is to bring that power into this world.” — Eckhart Tolle (A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose)
Eckhart also tells us that Be-ing in the Now is our Life Purpose, he calls it our Inner Purpose. The “Other” Purpose is what we are talking about here. Once we are able to embrace the Inner Purpose of accepting who we are and to live in the Now…the rest is easier…ahhh.
Back to the work at hand (another bad hand pun). We each came into this lifetime with unique and wonderful life-markers created just for us…our fingerprints. Each fingerprint was carefully placed on a very specific finger, giving you clues as to why YOU are here! That is just the beginning, the exquisite lines, the myriad of marks and the shape of our hands also have a hidden message to tell.
Your fingerprints are unique, unchanging and completely formed five months before birth. In 1979 Richard Unger, master hand analyst, discovered that our fingerprints also hold the answer to the all important question of what you are to do with your life. Since then, this ground breaking method for self-discovery has helped thousands of individuals to connect with their unique life purpose and find greater direction, meaning and fulfillment.
Using a combination of modalities, with a focus on hand Analysis, I can help you find your Life Purpose Clues and EXPLODE Your Passion! Let’s Get Started!
