There is a belief that a newborn baby has smooth fingers and palms. As he gets older, curls and lines become noticeable on them. The more obstacles in life you have to overcome, the more difficult these patterns will be.
In fact, papillary patterns form in the fetus already at 12 weeks. They appear when the nervous system is laid. Features of the temperament and nervous organization of a person really depend on the characteristics of such patterns.
Papillary drawings are linear elevations of small width and height, which, curving, are woven into a variety of patterns located throughout the palm and separated by small furrows.
Structural features
Our skin integrates three main spheres. These are the upper (epidermis), dermis (skin proper) and subcutaneous fat.
The dermis consists of a mesh and papillary ball. The latter is elevations of various shapes and heights. Some parts of the body are covered with smooth skin, while others consist of linear elevations in the form of scallops (papillary lines). Papillary patterns are formed from such lines. They cover the palms and soles of a person’s feet.
Scallops are details of such patterns and can tell an experienced fingerprint reader about the type of nervous system of a newborn. Some properties of papillary patterns can warn of anomalies in the development of the baby.
In addition, everyone knows the abilities of people who study palmistry, predict the future along the lines in the palm of your hand.
Types of papillary patterns
Hand drawings are a unique genetic code, unique for every person.
By type, one can distinguish such papillary patterns: arc, loop, curlicue.
Characteristic of arc patterns
Similar drawings are the simplest. They are composed of two streams of papillary lines that originate at one edge of the finger and end on the opposite. In the middle are arched shapes. Such patterns do not have an internal pattern. They do not have deltas.
There are such types of papillary arc patterns:
- Simple. The center of the finger has a smooth rise, which formed papillary lines.
- Tent or pyramidal. In the middle part, you can see the rapid movement of the lines to one another with the formation of a bend. Its inner part is covered with barely noticeable strokes.
- With an indefinite structure. Drawing cannot be attributed to any particular type.
- False loop. Sometimes the location of the arcs is such that a fingerprint specialist with little experience can confuse them with a loop pattern. These lines do not end in a loop.
- False curlicues. The pattern formed by the papillary lines of the inner part of the arc resembles a curlicue, but it has other features.
- Rare patterns. It happens that arcs are more pronounced near the edges of the fingertips with the central part in the form of a tent, on the outside there are loops and heads. Such an imprint is identified as an arc and is attributed to the disadvantages of rolling.
Features of loop patterns
This type of pattern is not uncommon. It consists of three streams of lines that have a beginning at the extreme part of the fingertips. Wrapping a loop, the lines return to their beginning. Loop patterns form a series of loops that are arranged one in the other. The center of such a pattern should be a complete loop head or full loop.
On the fingertips you can see the center and delta. The center is the area in which the papillary lines turn. In the delta region, all flows merge. The most concave part of the loop is called the head. It has a peak at the turning point of the scallops. Lines that diverge are legs.
Types of loop patterns
Patterns are divided into simple, closed, curved. In addition, there are parallel or double, false-curl patterns.
Depending on where the legs of the loops look, they can be radial, ulnar. In the first case, the legs are directed to the thumb, in the second - to the little finger.
If the loop head moves to the edge, this means that the pattern is under-rolled and not classified. The direction of the legs of the loops can be different.
Curlicue patterns
They are composed of curls, which are formed from three streams of lines directed towards each other. The finger pad has two deltas located on both sides.
The shape of the curls is different. It can be an ellipse, an oval, closed and open spirals.
Such types of papillary patterns are quite rare. There is an opinion that a person who has such patterns is highly talented and gifted.
The properties
Papillary patterns are characterized by such properties:
- Individuality. Even Siamese twins do not have the same patterns on their fingers. Matches of papillary patterns are excluded.
- Sustainability. Throughout life, patterns remain unchanged. Only their size can change.
- Patterns are printed when touched on things and objects and form a clear picture.
- The ability to regenerate. After severe damage to the epidermis, patterns recover over time. When the dermis is damaged, distinctive signs of papillary patterns appear - scars and scars.
Such qualities are indispensable for fingerprint research, they help to identify a person.
Palmists, studying the lines of fingers and palms, learn a lot about a person, his present and future, although this is considered more fun. But even in official medicine, papillary hand patterns are used to determine a person’s health status.
Even if changes to the drawings do not occur, you can notice an increase in some details. For example, you can notice a thickening of the scallops, an increase in the tubercles on the palms, and a thickening of papillary lines.
Types of Handprints
A fingerprint, depending on the method of formation, can be voluminous or superficial, colored or colorless, hardly visible or invisible, static or dynamic. At the location - local and peripheral.
Volumetric traces are called three-dimensional displays, which are the result of the contact of the palms with plastic surfaces. Such traces remain on oil, cheese, plasticine, icy surfaces, etc.
A surface trace on a solid surface occurs when a trace-forming substance is peeled off or layered. There is a colorless and colored, barely visible and invisible trace.
A static handprint is formed at rest when there is no movement of objects. Such prints give the most accurate picture of the external structure of the object that left a mark (footprints on the ground, fingerprints on the glass).
A dynamic trace occurs when objects move. For example, when drilling, cutting, sawing, sliding, etc.
Within the boundaries of the interaction of surfaces that are in contact, a local imprint appears. A peripheral trace is the result of a change beyond their boundaries.
Character and palm patterns
There are many combinations of papillary patterns, and even experienced palmists or fingerprinters cannot study them.
But some types of papillary patterns can tell about a person’s temperament.
Particular attention should be paid to the thumb pad: if it has a radial loop, this indicates that the person is choleric in temperament. The main features of his character are the desire for leadership, the ability to bring everything to the end, high intelligence, a quick change of emotions. If such a pattern is observed in a woman, then she has masculine qualities.
The presence of an elbow loop on the pads of the thumbs indicates a person’s openness, the ability to adapt to any team and any situation. A ring finger with the same pattern is a sign of talent.
The elbow loop on the index finger indicates that the person is a sanguine person, has the ability to adapt to circumstances or change them in his favor. Pleasant in communication.
A little finger with a similar pattern is a good sign. A person is able to find a way out of any situation.
Those who have curls and spirals on their palms are unpredictable. Unary indicate ability to circumvent difficult situations. Deep, in the form of a funnel, indicate that a person has a complex psyche, and it will not be easy to solve it. Spiral curls are a sign of increased sensuality.
The direction of the scallops helps determine who is in front of you - an extrovert or an introvert. If the scallops with their legs tend to the inside of the palm - then a person seeks loneliness. In the opposite case, if the legs are scalloped to the little fingers, - in front of you an extrovert.
