Given the U.S. election season, I am going to focus a little bit in the coming months on politicians from the U.S. or those who are related. I start with Nimarata Nikki Haley, former governor of the state of South Carolina and currently a hopeful for the U.S. Presidency. (The hands of another hopeful, DeSantis, were analysed by me here earlier. To fill in more basic info, Nikki Haley’s origins are South Asian (Indian), and she belongs to the Republican Party. Let’s start.

Major hand: right, b. 1972

I start with the above picture first to judge the hand shape, fingers, thumb, etc. and have a general outlook on the hands. The energy levels are quite good, and the thumb’s first phalange shows an immense willpower. This is though coupled with a certain narrowness to the hand, a long Jupiter finger and a supple-looking thumb, all features more common in women (the first two especially among Indian women) than in men. In other words, there is a certain flexibility or adaptability to this person even if that thumb top phalange can make the person very obstinate at times. The fingers’ top phalanges bend a bit towards each other, suggesting a certain insecurity in the subconscious relating to identity. There, probably, also is some sexual frustration underlying the persona. The Saturn finger is just a touch longer than usual, indicating a person fond of structures and conventions to some extent. Listening skills, essential for a politician, look average, neither exceptional nor too bad. However, the mount of Mercury looks well developed, so there is business acumen or the ability to express herself. The mount of Luna looks well developed as does Jupiter; however, Venus looks decent but not exceptional. For immense success, both Venus and Luna should be exceptional, in general (there are always exceptions).

Let us now proceed to the lines and markings (if any can be spotted).

The excellent life and heart lines are showing the ability of a deep commitment and well-rootedness in her heritage. She seemed to have had a good childhood. The brain line shows a good ability to think.

Now for the important bit. Both hands suggest initially two careers (or two home bases!) in parallel, from late teens till around 26, when there is a shift away towards a public-facing career only. There is a weakness on the career front at around the age of 41, and there is some strength again between around 42 and 47 in terms of career, though not the same. At around 50, the career does not look advancing in either of the hands, giving a very strong indication that Haley’s public-facing career may very well have come to a stop now. Now, it is at around the age of 50 that Haley is trying to win the Republican Party nomination to stand in national elections opposite Joe Biden, and it seems this would bring about an end to the public fortunes. It is certainly a more bleak scenario than what appears in DeSantis’ hands.

In summary, based on her hands, even if they are quite good hands, I do not expect Nikki Haley to become the U.S. President, and I doubt if she would win even the Republican nomination to be their primary candidate opposite Biden.
