This increase of wealth or power is still more accentuated if at the same time it is observed that a Sun Line has made its appearance.
If the Influence Line should cut through the Fate Line, and appear on the thumb side of it, the affection will seldom last as long, or be so happy (7, [Plate XVIII].). If a still wider separation of the Influence Line and the Fate Line appear as these two lines ascend the hand together, the separation of interests and destiny of the two persons will be still more marked as the years proceed.
If an Influence Line approaches close to the Line of Fate, and runs parallel with it for some time but does not join it, some great obstacle will prevent a marriage ever taking place (see also page [57]).
If an Influence Line terminates in an "island," the influence itself will itself get into trouble, generally disgrace of some character (10, [Plate XVIII].).[5]

INFLUENCE LINES ON THE MOUNT OF VENUS
These are fine lines that run parallel with the Line of Life (11-11, [Plate XVIII].), but they must not be confounded with the Line of Mars, or "Sister Life Line," which commences higher up nearer the Mount of Mars.
These Venus Influence Lines are more often found with those persons who have what is called the "Venus temperament," or who are intensely emotional and passionate.
When many of such lines are seen, the subject cannot live without love, and will have many "affairs" at the same time.
