Soikin’s printing house), his name is unfortunately unknown, claims that one can determine the character of a person by hand, paying attention also to their gentleness. Owners of soft hands are malleable in nature, they are sensitive, impressionable and careless. Rigidity of hands can be either from nature or acquired over the years.
