The lines, creases, and markings on our bodies are unique to each one of us. While the creases of the hand are fundamental to the art of palmistry, “bracelet lines,” also known as rascette lines, play a fascinating role of their own.

Rascette lines circle the inside of the wrist like bracelets, hence the name. A person will usually have between one and four lines, and the number and definition of the lines can reveal hidden insights into your health, wealth, and future self.

Hold your dominant hand out flat with the palm facing up. You may already notice faint horizontal creases below the wrist joint. Next, gently clench your fist and curl your wrist at the joint; the lines will become more prominent.

How many rascette lines do you have, and what do they mean?

The First Line: Health

The first and highest rascette line delineates health. If the line is bold, this indicates that you are currently enjoying good health and are happy and fulfilled in your life. You have a good reason to be relaxed and are not currently experiencing anxiety about your progression in life, work, or relationships.

Take note if you see breaks or cracks in this first line, however. This could indicate that there are deficiencies in your life that need to be addressed. Are you experiencing dissatisfaction in your professional or personal life? If so, there’s no time like the present to reevaluate and make changes. Reconsider your ambitions and focus on achievable goals.

The Second Line: Wealth

The second rascette line indicates wealth. If the line is deep and long then it’s likely that you are currently financially comfortable, possibly even enjoying a life of luxury.

If the second line is pronounced, this also implies a wealth of resources. Perhaps these resources will allow you to ascend the career ladder or make new friends. It can also maybe indicate that these resources will allow you to help someone else realize their potential.

According to psychology expert Lisa Firestone, being generous with your resources can have a tremendously positive impact on your own health. Generosity can reduce stress, enhance your sense of purpose, naturally fight depression, and even increase your lifespan.

A faint or shortened second line, however, indicates potential financial troubles or depleted resources. Fixing this issue will require a commitment to change on your part. You will need to reacquaint yourself with your passions and commit to performing at your best. If your vocational situation is static, however, then shift more focus onto rewarding hobbies and personal projects.

The Third Line: Influence

The third rascette line is elusive, and not everybody has one. If you do, count yourself lucky because the third line indicates influence. People with a visible third line are natural-born leaders. You may find that you have a position of high power in the workplace and a highly respected position within your family or friendship group too.

A deep third line implies that you are optimistic about your capacity for achieving success. According to Psychology Today, “Optimists are more likely to persist in their efforts than are pessimists, who may underestimate their odds of success at the outset.” Your challenge is to channel your capacity for leadership into exerting a positive influence over the people around you.

The Fourth Line: Longevity

The fourth rascette line is linked to longevity. A long fourth line implies that you will live a long life and have the privilege of witnessing your family line continue for multiple generations beneath you.

If your fourth line is cracked or faint, this only indicates that there’s work to be done on improving familial relationships. It’s never too late to act with kindness and generosity toward the people you hold dear.

Did you know there was so much to be learned from the lines on your wrist?
