Also called: Prithvi Hasta · The practical hand

Where on the hand: Recognised from the whole hand: a square palm carrying short, often thick fingers.

What it looks like: Broad, solid, heavy and firm; the skin often coarse; few lines, but those few deep, clear and simple. The middle finger is noticeably shorter than the palm is long.

The Earth hand belongs to the practical, grounded, physical nature — the person who trusts only tangible evidence, works steadily, keeps their word and dislikes change. Its strength is reliability; its weakness is rigidity.
