Some students of chiromancy do ask very frequently that how long it takes to learn palmistry. In fact, it is out of question to tell exactly how long it will take to have fully command over the language of the hand. Someone may grasp it within six month and some other may take years to even understand the basics of the language of the palm. The students of chiromancy should have photographic memory and fertile imagination to learn palm reading effortlessly.

The major problem that appears before the new comers in palm reading is to understand the shape and size of the palm. There are seven kinds of palm in the study of chirognomy. It should be fully understood by the students. The palmist should have knowledge of both chirognomy and chiromancy to be a successful palm reader.
