Elizabeth longed for something magical to come into her life to help ease the pain of her past memories and to give hope for the future. In her intense search, she was living a life full of expectation hoping tomorrow would be better than all the bad yesterdays. Meanwhile the present became increasingly busy, with pressing demands, obligations and responsibilities. This state of mind is reflected by a busy network of lines in Elizabeth’s hands, denoting an overwhelming feeling that her life was out of control.

Elizabeth felt overwhelmed and alone as a single mother taking care of three children. In her consultation, she was hoping for a magic remedy that could ease some of her stress. I explained to her that her mind was overly occupied, as confirmed by the many crisscrossing lines in her handprints. I promised that we would work together to achieve greater peace of mind, eliminating one line at a time.

She realized her past habit was to try and escape reality by seeking solace in relationships. However as she got involved too quickly, each relationship only ended up adding further disappointment and hurt.  She realized she was depending on her relationships to make her happy, putting aside her need to discover herself and her own self-expression. In her before handprint, in addition to too many lines, there is a faint destiny line showing she is distracted from fully realizing and embracing her life purpose.

After working together for several months, she began to take charge of her life, keeping a specific goal in mind. Rather than dwell on the past or future, she concentrated on being present each moment, enjoying her role both as a mother and as a professional. The satisfaction she began to experience replaced her fears, frustrations and anxieties. She is now feeling more focused, disciplined and structured towards fulfilling her dreams. We can see in the ‘After’ handprint, her destiny line has become stronger. The saying of a great Himalayan yogi, Babaji, really resonated with her, “Banat, Banat, Ban Jai” which translates as “By doing and doing, it is done.” She is really enthusiastic to see the changes in herself one line at the time.  

In my personal coaching, I concentrate on specific areas that my clients would like to work on. I explain to them, however, that what may have taken many years to develop as a negative habit or self-defeating pattern needs time and commitment to bring about change.

Whatever issue you would like to focus on, whether professional or personal, such as building confidence, developing charisma, or attracting love – I would be more than happy to work with you and to see the successful changes in your life, confirmed by the changing patterns in your hands.

We always have a choice, like Shakespeare said, ‘to be or not to be!’ Peter had great challenges to not being happy. He was in the vortex of a very difficult divorce, both financially and emotionally. Also, he discovered that his wife had developed a relationship with his best friend. Additionally, she had turned his children against him. These painful events occurred in 2009. Although he has a long, idealistic heart line, there is also a branch of the heart line turning down, closing up his quadrangle, which is a sign of hurt and distrust.

His misgivings towards others acted like an armour to protect himself from the possibility of any further hurt. This attitude shaped his new way of life. I needed to help him realize that this protective pattern was becoming a weakness. I wanted him to focus on his strengths and to realize two important points. First, our lives are guided by the law of karma – where we attract specific lessons that can help us evolve in becoming a better person. And secondly, that we have the free will to change what we perceive as unchangeable.

A confident and proud Peter walked in my office a year later. He was very curious to see the changes he anticipated in his hands. Why? As he told me, “Guylaine, I made a definite choice to be happy and peaceful!” This positive affirmation can be seen by a line of motivation arising on his life line after an interference line was crossing the life line. The line of motivation also turned into a wisdom marking instead of blocking the quadrangle – the landing strip of the angels where we see the receptivity to invite other people into our life.

The saga of his divorce still continues. His wife wants more money and the children still don’t want to see him, but he decided to help other children in his community, which fills his heart with great joy. This is confirmed by his destiny line originating from the Moon which shows a desire to nurture others. comfort

This story is another inspiration of the treasures of human life taken from my files. It proves that you too can choose to be or not to be like Peter!

Steve’s first visit was memorable. He arrived at my office very sceptical and guarded. It turned out that his wife, a client of mine, had given him an ultimatum to see me as their relationship was on the rocks. Consequently, although he was reluctant to have an appointment, he wanted to save the marriage and so he agreed to see me.

As I studied his print, I soon realized that despite his outer show of strength and machismo, there was a sensitive individual hidden inside. He was anxious and afraid of what the future held for him without his wife in the picture. He realized somehow the dynamics in his relationship needed to change, but he felt at a loss not knowing where to begin.  

During the consultation, I could sense a huge relief as Steve sank into his chair and burst into tears. He let go of his initial resistance trying to prove he was right and refusing any responsibility in the troubled state of the marriage. He was able to acknowledge his own flaws and how they contributed to the deterioration of the relationship. He admitted his insecurity was largely responsible for him to be so intense and demanding, that it even resulted in pushing his wife away. This behavior is confirmed in his hand by his long, straight, unbending heart line. Although idealistic, Steve could be tense and unyielding. To maintain a long-term harmonious relationship, it was important for him to make a conscious effort to be more flexible in recognizing and accepting his partner’s feelings and needs.

We began a coaching program together, and after several meetings, Steve started to become more conscious of the emotional triggers that caused him to react when he was hurt. He realized he placed too much expectation on the behavior of others and would become enraged when he was disappointed. I quoted the words of the great master Sri Yukteswar who said that wrath springs form thwarted desires and if we promise to love, it has to be unconditional. Otherwise, we are mainly interested in securing our own needs and desires. That seemed to click with him and he agreed to keep a journal in order for me to follow his progress. He promised to record any situation that caused him aggravation.

When we met a few weeks later, he presented his journal saying he had focused on forgiving anyone who had upset him during that time - the driver who cut him off or took his parking spot, the employees who didn’t listen, the friend with a hurtful remark, the bad weather causing a pain in his back. The diary entries showed that each day, he was upset and reactive about someone or something that he needed to forgive. He was shocked when he realized there were only 2 days when he had felt happy.  

Then he realized it was himself he had to forgive for having placed such huge demands and expectations on everybody he had come into contact with. Then he asked himself who would I like to be? He responded, definitely not me!  He acknowledged he would be miserable if he had to live with himself. This insight is confirmed by wisdom markings on his Jupiter mount. He was moved to realize how patient and loving his wife had been all those years to live with what he referred to as “the old and unpleasant me.” In his later prints, his Sun finger has opened, confirming Steve’s growing empathy, magnetism and contentment of heart. Also, his wisdom markings have become more apparent.

During the final session of his program, his wife joined us saying how amazed and happy she was to see such a dynamic change in his personality, and that they have grown closer as a result. They are communicating better and Steve is feeling more secure so that instead of trying to control the relationship, he is more flexible, tolerant and receptive to her needs. Compared to the first time I saw Steve, this session was full of joy and laughter, like I was witnessing the reunion of two great friends. As they were leaving, his wife called out, “Hey, Guylaine, where do I sign up to start my program?”

The first time Marie-Christine, a pretty, charming and petite young woman, walked into my office, she was only 17 years old. Like many teenagers her age, she was faced with many potentially life changing decisions.

As we began the session, one of the first things I checked was the ascendant in her natal chart and the hora chart to see the exact nature of her visit. The ascendant reveals our personality, general attitude towards life and the direction we want our life to take. Marie-Christine had a Libra ascendant ruled by the planet Venus, confirming her beauty and charming disposition. Moreover, many astrology books mention that having a Libra ascendant can be very fortunate as Saturn, the planet of structure and purpose, also becomes a dominant force in the chart. This is due to its rulership of two lucky houses, Capricorn in the fourth house related to our general happiness and Aquarius in the fifth, related to our mental outlook, love and creativity. However, if Saturn is not equally strong in our hand, seen for example by the absence of a Saturn (or destiny) line, it shows that we are not manifesting the full potential of Saturn in our life. In addition, like Marie-Christine, having Libra, an air sign, in the ascendant, can give us so many ideas, that we don’t know which one to follow. As a result, we can feel somewhat lost, uncertain and insecure. This can be confirmed in her hand by the presence of multiple Saturn lines. Marie-Christine loved to be spontaneous and free in order to follow her many dreams and inspirations. She didn’t know whether to be a doctor, a massage therapist or an artist.

Marie-Christine did not receive much support from her family, as her parents were divorced, and her mother, whom she lived with, was occupied reconstructing her own emotional life. Consequently, Marie-Christine felt insecure both emotionally and financially, having to work to put herself through school.
    
In the Before print, her two head lines reflect her uncertainty as to which profession to pursue. Although many times throughout the years, as much as she would try to remain focused and complete her education, she would become distracted, with one thing or the other, including falling in love and neglecting her studies. This pattern continued, causing her much unhappiness, as she wanted to realize her dream of being a successful professional. Her need to establish her priorities became the major focus of our consultations.

In time, Marie-Christine recognized the importance of not only making choices but also sticking to them. Ultimately she decided to become a teacher which she pursued on a part-time basis. As she completed each stage of her education, through CEGEP and university, she became increasingly certain, happy and confident in the choice she had made. Each step of the way, she was proud to show me all the ‘As’ she had worked so hard to obtain in her student reports.
    
When I saw her at the beginning of this year, she was 32 and had only one year left to obtain her degree in education. She felt, however, that her real accomplishment was the changes she had made in her handprints, as seen by the After print. She was amazed to see that her two head lines had finally merged into one, confirming all the good that she saw manifesting in her life. Also, her destiny line had become more focused. She was happy to be rid of the doubts and feelings of incompetence that had plagued her for many years. Today, she is feeling strong, certain and convinced to finish school successfully.
    
On the emotional front, she is happily involved in a supportive relationship. She realized that, in the past, it was her own insecurity that was responsible to have attracted wrong people. Her focus on her relationships gave her the excuse to miss class. This enabled her to not have to confront her fear of failing to achieve her goal. In contrast, her growing self-assurance gave her the magnetism to attract love in the form of inspiration and support. She is no longer emotionally dependent based on her complexes and fears.  By recognizing her weakness, she created the will and dynamism to change.
