Bows of Intuition form definitively semi-circular arced lines which encompass and encapsulate part or all of Moon mounts. Water-governed Moon mounts lie on the ulnar (baby finger) sides of hands, between the Pluto mount at their base, and the Mars upper/Uranus mounts above. The middle of the bows curve toward the Plains of Mars while the ends are on or near the Mercury mounts and the Moon mounts respectively.
To understand the Bow of Intuition, the significance of the Moon mount is key. There are several specific principles, characteristics and traits which are ascribed to Moon mounts.
Symbolically, the Moon represents the subconscious dream world. She stands for awareness of the Akashic records and collective consciousness. She embodies the potential for comprehension and inner awareness of the cosmic forces in our material and non-material realms.
These deep areas of our palms have no emerging digits; they are water-governed and are the primary storage capacitors in hands of our feeling responses, our emotions. The qualities of mother Moon are understood as being yin, feminine, passive, reflective and receptive and these watery mounts also relate directly to the nurturing mother archetype and to the mother relationship. In readings, interpretations of the shapes of these mounts contribute to how readers perceive the quality of the client’s emotional wellness.
Another key Moon principle is sensitivity, which is also why the Moon is directly linked to psychic and intuitive perceptions and to spiritual planes. Forms of and markings on our Moon mounts also reveal the extent of our potential relationship with our inner-tuition, the voice of our souls, which speaks through impressions, strong hunches and feeling responses to people and situations. Our capacity for imagination, and of the creativity which might flow as a result of inspiration also in-dwell in Moon mounts.
Consider too that Bows of Intuition can either conjunct or be part of minor air (Mercury) lines; their relevance is strongly influenced with the overlay of Mercurian traits of curiosity, astute insight and shrewdness. In calibrating other people’s energy, a strong Mercurian influence will add perceptive accuracy. In fact, we might debate whether or not the Bows of Intuition are in fact minor air lines; some readers consider them to be Mercury lines in a different form. However, we also occasionally find that Bows of Intuition are completely separated from and present alongside minor air lines.
Minor air lines are also called ‘Mercury’, ‘health’ and ‘intuition’ lines. These mostly diagonal lines run between air-governed Mercury and any of several positions lower in the hands. Air rules thought, breath, nerves and neural activity; their presence suggests that unconscious physiological and mental processes are brought to conscious awareness. The three realms of life traditionally associated with minor air lines are health, business acumen and intuition.
Bows of Intuition are one of the most significant indicators of psychic and mediumistic abilities in people’s hands. Having even one Bow of Intuition in your hands might feel like you have antennae that are permanently plugged into non-material realms. Conceptually, these enclosed and encapsulated sections of Moon mounts keep their owners in constant conscious or unconscious contact with celestial source. Owners are attuned to the Divine, they receive messages and perhaps foresee future events. They are natural mediums who may find themselves offering spiritual guidance to others.
