Psychology
Hands stand for action and work. Reading palms may reflect a wish to review what you have done and see what lies ahead. Studying your own palm is introspection; having it read means you want advice.
Folklore and history
Palmistry is traced to India and China and was popular among ordinary people in Edo Japan. Terms like the life, heart and head lines remain familiar, and a single line crossing the palm is said to mark strong luck.

This site's view
In this site's view, watch how the lines change. Lines growing mean you feel able to rewrite your future; lines fading bring both fear and freedom from a set path. Palm lines are a record of every day you gripped and let go.
Going deeper: our reading
The major creases of the palm are known to begin forming before birth, while we are still in the womb, so the lines palmists read are etched before we even arrive in the world. Some palmists compare left and right hands, trying to separate what you were born with from what your way of living has changed. In this site's reading, the dream reflects a wish to see how your path so far is written into your own hands. Gazing at your palm and tracing its lines suggests you are quietly comparing your inborn nature with the road you chose. Having someone take your hand to read it shows a wish for a trusted person to affirm how you live. This is our speculation, but holding hands with someone dear and seeing your creases seem to overlap means the road you share is gaining great meaning in your life.
What to do on waking
Open your hands, recall one thing they achieved, and care for them with some hand cream.
