Do your have any whorl fingerprints? (see image)
If so, there are lots of significant psychological qualities inherent in this patterns that you need to understand about yourself.
Whorls make for a need for space, privacy and the drive to be alone and unsupervised.
Whorls are highly secretive, freedom loving, elusive, odd and eccentric.
Where there are whorls on many fingers, they make for an odd, inventive and highly original personality who’s uninterested in following trends, fashions and groups.
Whorl types get very 'wound' up and just like their circular pattern, their thoughts got around and around obsessing about their object of focus.
The whorl is seen in abundance on talented people. It isn’t on it’s own a sign of creativity, but it signals a lack of a herd instinct, originality, an analytical mind and the ability to be alone for long periods, which is the basis for any creative expression.
Whorls are rarely found on group performers, like actors who must obey script or director, they are much more likely to be the writer or the screenwriter.
The nature of the whorl means deep focus on one particular subject is far preferable to a broad set of skills, so the whorl makes for a nature that has a specialist interest or hobby. Multi-whorled people usually become experts or specialists.
Whorls give an ability to avoid group-think, and to prefer freedom, individuality, space and being alone over communal activities.
Whorl dominant types often are often perceived as being loners or anti-social and will often seek to seek adventure and travel alone.
Whenever you see a lot of whorls on a palm, it’s inevitable that person will spend the majority of their lives alone – even if married with four children they will find a way to isolate themselves for long periods of time.
If you want to discover more about the print patterns, I highly recommend Christopher Jones book: The Palmistry of the Fingerprints - the best book out there on print patterns....
