Sunshine In Her Hands
( Continued from page 43) the brain sends its messages which run along those nerve fibers like the taps on telegraph wires. Furthermore, in each finger tip are the “Paccini” corpuscles which not only transmit sensations of touch but also act as little brains in themselves. This cor»tinual exchange of activity from hand to brain and brain to hand affects the mounts of the hand and creates a living map of character and destiny just as rivers cutting their way through a landscape determine its hills and valleys.
All that we are is the result of what we have felt and thought. This is the unceasing process of moulding character and personality. The hand is the living diary on which those thoughts and feelings are written down.
June had an air of attentive seriousness as she listened, which confirmed the story her hand was telling me of her inner life. Here was the real June, the secret soul whose courage and determination account for her enviable success.
There is nothing superficial about the lovable radiance of her personality. She is not the gay little girl, just dancing through life, but she has attained her radiance by suffering and self-mastery. The audiences respond to it because they feel in it a sympathy and understanding. Few people saw her in “Her Highness and the Bellboy” without being moved to tears.
In a way June Allyson was acting her own story.
LOOKING at the beginning of her fate and life lines I saw her poignantly unhappy childhood. There was the poverty, the lack of security.
Because June is ambidextrous we have to take both hands equally into consideration. As I searched for these important influences in June’s formative life period I saw that one of her parents was driven by restlessness, lack of self control, impulsiveness and irresponsibility — lack of all those qualities which add up to that stability which makes a person competent to rear a happy child. From the other parent however came the deep straight headline with its common sense and driving power, the inherited quality which has done so much for June.
An emotionally unstable and insecure childhood is a terrible handicap to overcome. It creates fear. Fear about practically everything. June has not yet rid herself of these fears. She worries about almost everything.
She was reticent about her parents. But she confirmed the story of a broken home seen in the islanded Saturn line under the third finger and in the lines breaking through it in her early childhood. It was then that destiny relented and she went to live with her grandmother, a woman of maternal kindness and stability who gave her love and care.
The grandmother’s love and understanding contributed a philosophical attitude to life which has left its impression on her. She reached the timid child’s heart and created a brief and very happy period in her life.
A happiness short-lived, for true to the splitting of her fate line, June suffered a terrible accident when she was only nine years old.
“Look June,” I told her, “Here is an island in your life line from the ninth to fourteenth year. It tells of pain, heartbreak and fear — all that is connected with an accident.”
June marvelled at the accuracy of the lines in her hand. “That was when I was riding my bicycle to school! I rode head
