Karla Kogan is a Hand Analyst certified by the International School of Palmistry who has been reading palms in the Monterey Bay Area since 2001. She worked 16 years in banking and the financial industry, and now as a legal administrative assistant.
Karla is newly married and a mother of three teenagers, four dogs and four cats.

"My philosophy and approach to the hands combines practical theory and application with intuition.  Palmistry for me is about recognizing the gifts and the lessons we are blessed with and encouraging positive direction on our individual paths.  There is no sense in looking at the lines, markings and other features of the hands and saying, "Oh, look at that!"  without discussing positive movement forward to make the utmost of what is held there.

The most important thing I can share about Palmistry is that there is NO hand that I would ever consider a BAD hand.  Nonsense.   Coming to recognize the amazing traits each person possesses is why I do this!  Equally important to remember is that we all go through chapters in our lives in which we change, and so do our hands!  My wish for you is that you never experience a negative palm reading from ANY reader.  You should NEVER be told you will die in ten years or suffer a disease or lose a loved one.  Free will and the power of creative thinking alone would make such predictions irrelevant.  Hand Analysis is a scientific tool that can enrich ones life through self-knowledge and anticipation that the best is truly yet to come."

In addition to offering personal readings and enjoying groups and events, Karla has volunteered readings at the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life, recognizing the strength, faith and yes, happiness in the hands of cancer patients, survivors and families.  "I have to tell you how amazed I am each year at the JOY that is being experienced at the Relay for Life.  Do you think cancer forces us to shift our priorities and enjoy every triumph ten-fold?  I'm blessed to be able to participate and learn from these wonderful people."

You can also schedule readings in person with Karla at the ROTA Psychic Fair in Monterey held in May and October each year at the Monterey Fairgrounds.  A gathering of some of the best healers, readers and craftspeople, the event runs for two days and you can learn more at http://www.rotapsychicfair.com "I highly recommend the free lectures.  I try and sneak off to a couple each fair.  I swear the energy here is so fantastic that I leave feeling like I've learned and received far more than I've given.  Look forward to seeing you there!"

Karla has also appeared as a guest on the Sheila Gale show on KXRA Radio and read the hands of in-studio guests.  "It was a challenge to read hands on the air!   I can really see the value of being descriptive and detailed in a reading!  What a fabulous time!  Sheila is great!  Her show has brought healing in a variety of ways, to many, many listeners."  For more information about Sheila Gale and links to KXRA Radio, please visit her website at http://sheilagale.com
