Palm (of the hand) in a dream
A palm in a dream is read as openness and generosity: an open palm means you give and receive with ease.
Old dream books connect the palm with giving, receiving and the handshake that seals an agreement. In folk belief an open palm means sincerity and hospitality, and something lying on your palm a gift that is arriving or one you are offering. People also believe a path can be read from the palm, so the dream is taken as curiosity about what lies ahead. Treat it as a game: the lines on the palm are said to be only a reminder that you draw your own path.

Dreaming that your palm itches
People say a small present or a pleasant surprise is on its way. It is an old, playful belief and should be taken just that way.
Dreaming of a bird on your palm

Dreaming of holding out your palm to someone
Old dream books say you are sealing an agreement or a friendship you will be able to count on. A sincere handshake, they add, is worth more than many words.
