The secret of your fingerprint?

The word dermatoglyphics comes from two Greek words (derma, skin and glyphs, carve)
and refers to the friction ridge formations which appear on the palms of the hands and
soles of the feet. Dermatoglyphics is the scientific study of fingerprints. The term was
coined by Dr Harold Cummins, the father of American fingerprint analysis, even though the
process of fingerprint identification had already been used for several hundred years. All
primates have ridged

Personality can be traced early in the mother’s womb, and it is reflected in fingerprints
(dermatoglyphics). Since each person’s fingerprints are unique, we can understand one’s
innate potential, personality, and preferences by analyzing dermatoglyphics. The study of
fingerprints has become more common, therefore, some parents began to analyze their
child’s (or baby’s) prints; with the intention to identify their potential early, and provide
guidance accordingly to help expand their potential.

Dermatoglyphics will not change

The first time when skin stripes were recorded and documented was in 1823 by Czech
doctor Pa Jinjie. At that time he had taken note that the palm is covered by a surface layer
of wrinkles, which made up specific lines. Each fingerprint is unique; fingerprints on the
right hand will not be the same as the ones on the left hand. While fingerprints will
increase in size (from childhood to adulthood), it will not change, as long as one is not
seriously injured. When there is no damage to the dermis, fingerprints will begin to show
again along with healing of the wound.

Fingerprint and your potentials

Dermatoglyphics was first applied in the pathological studies, later to be extended to

study nymphomania and violent criminals in the FBI. Because fingerprints are genetic, we
can identify the personality and potential of a person based on his/her 10 fingerprints.
Fingerprints are usually formed at the 13th to 19th week of an embryo. Since each person
fingerprints are unique, fingerprints are also used for personal identification purposes.
And parents can also understand their children/babies’ innate character and learning
potential.

Dermatoglyphics is complex. Each finger represents different abilities; each print has
different interpretations. One’s potential can be generally identified based on the shape of
fingerprints. For more accurate results, the number of stripes (quantization) and ATD angle

(the angle between the A-triradius (under the index finger, the axial triradius (near the
wrist), and the D-triradius (under the little finger) need to be measured. Each quantization
represents one million genes; the more the quantization, the higher the ability. The smaller
the ATD angle, the higher the sensitivity for learning.

Although dermatoglyphics may identify a person’s potential, one may not be able to reach
his/her full potential without training. If your fingerprints identify that one has potential in
art, but lack of training of discipline, one’s potential would possibly be hidden.

Dermatoglyphics Basics

Dermatoglyphics is the analysis of fingerprints and footprints. Everyone has his/her unique
prints, therefore, it can be used in the criminal forensic analysis to prove identity. Through
nearly five centuries of observation and study of genetic medicine, amount and distribution
of neurons are reflected in a regular pattern on our fingerprints. According to European
and American experts, they found that fingerprints show different kinds of characteristics,
even with monozygotic (identical) twins, their fingerprints are different. At the same time,
the same fingerprints will appear again after healing of the wound, as long as the injury has
not affected the cells. Medical experts, with observation, recording, comparison, induction
and other methods, and clinical experiences, confirmed that fingerprints provide an
accurate analysis of a person’s multiple intelligences and potential. Experts who study
dermatoglyphics believe that fingerprints (dermatoglyphics) were marks of embryonic
nerves, which may reflect one’s genetic potential. If we understand our own qualities and
nurture accordingly, it will tremendously help in terms of career development, managing
emotions, increase concentration, and improve interpersonal skills.

Western scientists believe that dermatoglyphics is the DNA genes in the human body that
reflected in appearance. Although everyone is different prints, certain patterns can be
found in our prints. Skin begins to develop in the embryo in the 13th week, and it is formed
in the 19th week. It is closely related to the infant’s brain development. The distribution of
prints is considered to represent brain cells’ proportion and distribution in each of the
brain lobes.

In the nineteenth century, British eugenicist Galton (Sir Francis Galton), had collected many
human fingerprints and identify various lines of statistical frequency. He was the first
person who proposed that there is a connection between human prints and genetics. In the
1930s, U.S. scholars began to use prints to identify whether a newborn has down syndrome
and other potential mental illnesses. Until now, foreign scholars claim that they understand
enough of human prints to judge the potential of the human brain.

Currently, human prints can be categorized as one of the three main types (whorls-
shaped, arch-shaped, and loop-shaped). It is subdivided into eleven basic types, from

which many types of analysis have been derived, some focus on the analysis of left brain
and right brain; some believe that the print on each finger reflects different abilities.
(Thumb: action, execution and cognitive functions; index: logic imagination and 3d
visualization; middle finger: motor abilities and kinesthetic skills; ring: sound & speech
abilities; little finger: visual processing.

Uses of Dermatoglyphics

Dermatoglyphics is like a map that leads one to understand his own potential and talents.
Everyone inherits innate intelligence from their parents. By analyzing dermatoglyphy, we
can accurately understand the distribution and amount of cells in the left and right brain of
the cell and predict where the potential lies. Although everyone is bored with strengths
and weaknesses; if they are identified early, we may further develop the strengths and
improve our weakness, so that the left and right brain may grow in a more balanced and
blend way. Dermatoglyphics analysis may help

Dermatoglyphics Analysis Procedure

Dermatoglyphics Analysis is based on the formation and the number of ridges on the
fingerprints. Statistics show that the accuracy rate of dermatoglyphics analysis can be up
to 90%.

Dermatoglyphics Analysis Procedure includes collecting fingerprints with the help of a

fingerprint scanner. The process takes about half an hour; a report will be available in
approximately 24 hours. Consultants will analyze individual behaviour and study habits to
achieve the most accurate results.
