Main hand: Right, b. 1977

I don’t have decent photos of Macron, so this will be a limited analysis. In addition, the slightly decent photo of Macron’s major hand that I have is only from 2017, and some things may have changed since then, nullifying some of my observations. Still, for a student of palmistry, even with this half-decent photo, it is good practice, for his hand is quite unlike those of all the leaders and politicians discussed by me so far.

The very first thing that strikes one immediately on looking at both of his hands is what is called a philosopher’s hand. While Macron often says things in public that may seem hasty, after looking at these hands, one may not accuse him of being so: maybe he just does so because he has calculated the effect of that as well rather than mere instincts. Macron has got knotty joints between the second and third phalanges of his fingers, meaning a person who thinks before acting, who likes details. Of course, the top joints are not knotty, so once he has thought about it, he does not hesitate again before acting: it is at the initial stage of conception of an idea that he looks at all the details before proceeding. This is a kind of cautiousness, too, reinforced by the way he carries his fingers: a low gap between the middle two fingers. A quite balanced head line, given more to analytical mind-set rather than an imaginative one, again adds to that. In addition, the head line runs almost the full length of the palm: not a completely obsessive personality, but tending towards it. A person with a long view of things, with foresight. In addition, notice the waist-like formation of the third phalanges, notably on the third finger. This is not a person given to sensual pleasure-taking. Rather, a person who spends his energies on intellectual or business pursuits, that is, on mental pursuits. Even if the Venus is very well developed, thus a warm person, contrary to the image that Macron carries for many. In addition, the Luna is good but not over-developed, again showing that this is not a cold person. Note that this is a bit uncommon: many politicians have in fact an over-developed Luna, showing their cold side.

The next thing to notice is the origin of his life line in his major hand: from the mount of Jupiter. No wonder this man is derided, sometimes unfairly, as Jupiter. His life is from the very beginning imbued with a strong ambition. He has got lovely energy fulfilling his ambitions till the age of around 47, after which there seems to be weakness on both his life and fate lines. (Note that this is on the 2017 photo, and things may have changed for the better or worse since then.)

One can see the strong influence of a female coming into his life at around the age of 16, then reducing, but which then, finally, becomes a part of his life, and gives a significant boost to his fate, only at around the age of 25. However, from Wikipedia, I see that while Macron did meet his now-wife at the age of 15 and they became a couple when Macron was 18, Macron got married only at around the age of 29. However, my own hand reading shows his wife Brigitte’s influence making Macron’s fate strong from around Macron’s 25 years of age, certainly not 29, so this is something of an unexplained discrepancy, or maybe they had started to live together. I don’t know their life story beyond what is available on Wikipedia.

From the photos of both hands I have, none of which is recent, around 56 could be a time of ill health or similar for Macron, which would be around the year 2034. However, as I said earlier, I see quite a significant weakening of energy from the age of around 47 itself, which means from around 2025 onwards. In any case, Macron cannot stand now for the 2027 French presidential elections, having been elected for two terms, so he may have a diminished drive for that very simple reason, similar to what happened with Obama. However, unlike Obama, he is not a drifter in later life: Macron is going to have a sense of purpose and motivation throughout his life. In fact, from around the age of 54, I see that he might develop also an altruistic pursuit in parallel, probably associating himself with an NGO, trying to achieve world peace, etc.

Between the ages of around 42 and 56, one also sees a slight degree of intolerance or narrow-mindedness, call what you will, in his mind-set: however, overall, this is a fairly liberal-minded, straightforward person. Note also that Macron seems to have a dual emotional personality: while what drives him is his pragmatic personality, he also seems to have an overly idealistic, sentimental side to him, in which he is ready to sacrifice himself for others. This latter side would probably come more to the fore after the age of 54 or so. Also note that Macron, again contrary to many impressions, is an idealist. He is a pragmatist but not a cold, selfish pragmatist: he is an idealist but of the sort who knows the limits and scope of his idealism. However, it is rare for successful politicians to be idealists.

One has the hunch that Macron’s hands may have changed or could change quite a bit, so it would be lovely to see a good, recent photo of his palms, at least of his major hand. If someone has such a link, they are welcome to comment and point me out the location where I could find one so I could update this post.
