Are you an adventuresome world traveler or a person who prefers to stay close to home? What is going to be your final destination? Even if you are not sure, the shape of your hand can let you know. The information your hands contain can show what kind of traveler you are and how you approach your voyage through life — your general propensity toward travel and attitude toward it. Here are the interpretations for each of the hand shapes:

• Earth-handed: As you might expect, people with earth hands like to stay at home and enjoy what they know and what is familiar to them. When they do travel, they visit outdoor destinations where they can enjoy and partake of nature and the elements. They tend to take their vacations in the countryside rather than in the city, and they like to revisit the same places year after year, because they know what makes them happy.

• Water-handed: People with water hands are attracted to places of mystery, power, and spiritual growth. They enjoy exploring ancient sites and historical monuments that convey a sense of time's passage and give an idea of how our ancestors lived, worked, and thought. They are also drawn to activities of aesthetic appreciation — concerts, museums, theater festivals, and art fairs — where they can enjoy humanity's highest expressions of creativity.

• Fire-handed: People with fire hands are adventurous and love to explore new places and discover new ideas and cultures. They are like children, ever running forward to seek the unknown, always excited about seeing what is around the next bend.

• Air-handed: People with air hands enjoy travel the most. They like the stimulation of interacting with other cultures, learning about diverse people and places, comparing and contrasting destinations, and exchanging their ideas about it all with their new friends. Plus, they love to be the ones in the know about where to go and what to do, what's to be seen and where to see it.
