Your fingerprints are a mindfulness tool. They are about how you manage your energy: what makes me feel fulfilled and what drags me under. A lot of people think you can tell life purpose from fingerprints, and from a broad perspective that is true. But if you are looking for something more specific, like career or how can I get paid or serve other people, while fingerprints are part of that, it’s a much more specific question. There one needs to look at the whole hand, at personality. These are strengths and talents and various archetypes. You can think of the cluster of these types as an “inner team” that support you on your journey. These team players are visible in your hand, like hand shape and various line formations.
Knowing from your fingerprints what makes you feel fulfilled and what triggers you and being kind to yourself in that moment, that shifts you radically.
Knowing your fingerprints means knowing yourself on a deep foundational level. Basing your life on this blueprint, you can then choose the colors you need to have the life you want. It is all about managing your energy – mindfulness. This is the great gift of fingerprints.
What is Life Purpose Hand Analysis?
LifePrints© Hand Analysis is a relatively new psychometric tool, a way of understanding yourself and unlocking your life purpose, by exploring the energetic maps embedded in your fingerprints and hands. The system was developed by Richard Unger over a 50 year period. Unger’s breakthrough was in seeing the hands as an overlay of two totally different maps: an unchanging energetic map indicating core drives (fingerprints and dermatoglyphs in palm) and a dynamic and ever changing personality map (hand shape and other indicators). All other hand systems and psychometric tests attempt to merge these two very different maps into one. The beauty of the system is that one can very quickly pin point core themes related to deep meaning and purpose. Hand analysis is compatible with most belief systems.
Jena Griffiths uses hand analysis as a starting point to offer you a unique insight into your life.

More about Jena Griffiths
Jena is a certified Master Hand Analyst. She grew up in South Africa and has a BA in Social Anthropology and a BSc in psychology and geography from the University of Cape Town and two post graduate degrees, from University of Cape Town and UNISA.
She was SA triathlon champ in 1989 and South Africa’s top cyclist in the late 80’s and early 90’s. She pioneered women’s cycling in South Africa and was also an award winning copywriter until a crisis of meaning sent her on a journey around the world and inward, into her own psyche.
During her life long adventures she has lived in villages in South Africa as a community field worker for EDA (Environmental Development Agency) during the Apartheid years, and also taught in disadvantaged communities. After a year of sailing and backpacking across the USA she switched to advertising to exercise her love for conceptual writing. In 1996 she took a 6 month sabbatical to ‘go sailing’ and never returned. Over a six year period she sailed around the world, first with friends and then with her partner /husband. Their son was born en route. You can read about this adventure here: “Growing up afloat”
These days Jena lives in Canton Zurich, Switzerland and has been exploring the psyche through fingerprints since 2004.
Jena is interested in how fingerprints relate to ancestral patterns and how to work with these to unlock your highest purpose.
Jena consults in canton Zurich, Switzerland and elsewhere depending on schedule. Her self-help articles have been published in numerous magazines. Jena teaches professional training and also hosts self discovery retreats, in Europe, UK and Australia, and elsewhere on request. She also consults and offers hand analysis courses online.
Jena was personally mentored in hand analysis over a 13 year period by Richard Unger, author of LifePrints and now, as part of his teaching faculty, this relationship continues.
In 2010 Jena founded Earth School recording interviews with Richard Unger to preserve Richard’s vast knowledge and insight about hands, much of it not yet written down or recorded anywhere else. You can access a huge library of hand analysis classes created weekly over a 6 year period
During her own career path, she first took an intensive in 2004, then a yearlong certification, then advanced yearlong, then master certification. She also interviewed her teacher every week over a period of six years (2010- 2016) for students around the world.
In 2016 Earth School gave birth to Earthuni, where Jena has spent the last 5 years putting her own inner work first and teaching others how to do this using fingerprints as an inner GPS and hands as a roadmap.
