How do a straight and a curved Head Line differ?
A straight Head Line is often seen as a sign of logical, practical thinking that goes straight to the point. In contrast, a line curving slightly downward (toward the Mount of Moon) may suggest creativity, good intuition, and artistic talent. An overly curved line may indicate a vivid imagination, suited for business or artistic endeavors.
