From a new life in spain, to an old life in britain, 'roaming brit' documents uncertain times!

Picture

On 31st January 2016, my partner and I left Southampton to start a new life as Expats in Gran Alacant, on the Costa Blanca. This blog will document our journey, as we navigate the Spanish system, travelling a path untried and untested. With Brexit looming, political turmoil in Europe and an unpredictable future, harsh decisions have to be made. Illness, family bonds and a Change of heart all make for challenging times in a life of a 'Roaming Brit!'

A snapshot in time!

Picture
​A little old lady, her head and face covered in a thin silk scarf and adorned with cheap gold jewellery… Cross her palm with silver. This is the stereotypical palmist. In a faded windswept tent at the end of a rusting, old pier. A small wooden table wobbling gently under a yellowing, frayed lace table cloth.  Flickering candle light, the smell of the sea breeze in ones nose, musty drapes and smokey air!  I went here once and never went again, leaving more confused than when I entered the old tent at the end of the pier!

Well I am a Palm Reader or Chirologist and, despite the fact that I may wear a silk scarf in the privacy of my own home, none of the above applies.  I am a normal middle aged man, who just happened to stumble across a book in an old antique shop, written by 'Cherio', one of my Palmist hero's.  The more I read, the more amazed I became.  There was more to this Palmistry and I wanted to know what!

The study of hands, palmistry, or to give it its proper title, chiromancy, can be traced back to ancient Egypt and Rome. It reached its highest point here in Britain during Victorian times, where a fascination with all things 'occult' blossomed.

Now I may be a palmist, but I am certainly not an occultist - worshiping the devil or a slayer of sheep. This is the mistake the victorians made and many people also make today. Chiromancy at its most basic level, is a science used by academics, medical practitioners and psychologists to assess clients.  The hands tell a story, our story, our journey, our fate and just how we have and will continue to change it!  Each hand is unique to the individual.  As a Chirologist, I only see what you want me to see.  An open heart and head is needed to achieve the correct reading for you!

Take a look for a moment at your hand. There is a simple test to see what type of person you are, or rather the type of person you want others to see. Hold your writing hand up in front of your face - the hand you use most. Look at the lines on the surface. Most people will see at least three, others will see a few more, and many more will see a myriad of criss-crossing lines and symbols. The more lines you have, the more you worry. People with so many lines that are difficult to unravel live on nervous energy, unable to sleep at designated times, but with wonderful imaginations.

We use our hands more than any other part of our body. Just think of the many movements we make, the way we hold our hands and yes the scars we attain over our life time. All are assumed to be random. But what or who tells us to make these movements? Well our brain  of course is the source. Other lines begin to form on the hand through our unconscious movements. All we need to do, is interpret the code that is formed.

Some lines on the hand can change every day, others take about six months and on the hand we use least lines change every six years or so. This hand remains our private self, how we see ourselves, our well used other hand is as we would want others to see us….this is the edited version!  There are lines within the ball of the thumb, that change every day.  These are influence lines, they include people, objects, places, in fact anything that tends to influence our daily lives.  How the lines, form on our hands, determines how we see these influences.  A logical list or an ilogical mess, people we take notice of and others we don't.  We make these lines, nobody else does, just us, little old us.  Equally we can alter and change them.

Interestingly there are many signs on a persons hand that can point to their sexuality indirectly. There is not a “GAY” mark, but bought together, a number of factors can offer an opinion, as to a persons sexual orientation.  I mention sexuality, because of my own orientation.  Marks pointing to a persons sexuality, begin in early childhood. Assuming that someone who has feelings for someone of the same sex, went through a difficult time growing up, wrestling with their own thoughts, emotions and feelings, the indicators will show in their hands, at appropriate junctures.  Each indicator is cross checked with other indicators, marks and lines, situated in the same position in time on other lines of the hand!

Next time you use your hand in whatever capacity, take notice of the way you hold it, the lines on the palmer surface, the colour of your nails, the spacing between the fingers and the scars that have formed.  In order to discover exactly what is going on with each persons hand, awareness is the key.  Dates, times, people, events including deaths and relationships, can all be seen in  the lines on the palm.  The shape of ones hand, how one holds it under normal circumstances, the prints on the tips of ones fingers and the mounts that rise above ones lines, are all factors in determining, just who one really is!

Everything can be explained, nothing is random. Above all nothing is certain. We can all alter our fate, which is why the lines on our hands change. When a hand is read, it is simply a snapshot in time.

    A place to call home
    Finally, a place we can call home.  A community of like minded individuals, who used to call Britain home.  Now Spain is our choice, an altogether gentler, happier, sunnier and safer experience!
