Is there any one who knows about palmistry historical roots? Or any idea about that is palmistry a knowledge from god or devil?

This work originally began in 1989 as a short history of chirology of some three thousand words and was but merely a summary of the main events in the development of chirology over the centuries. However, historical studies have a habit of drawing you in and leaving you unsatisfied until all stones have been turned! The second draft multiplied to thirty thousand words and the third draft, in turn, multiplied to some sixty thousand words. Some seven years after finishing the research this, the fourth draft, was finally published in April 2001.

And yet, there are still many more nooks and crannies to be explored. For although this work comprehensively covers the literature to be found in academic institutions within the UK, notable gaps can readily be seen with regard to the literature held within European institutions and much more so with regard to the history of the development of the art in countries such as India, China and the Middle East. Despite these obvious shortfalls, it is some consolation to consider that a historical overview such as this can never be truly complete; it can only be a history of that which has been written down and can therefore only be a history of those texts which have survived the many centuries. Of that which has not been preserved, we can know nothing.

This work is therefore presented knowing that there is still yet more to be written.

I acknowledge a considerable indebtedness to the four men who have gone before me in this endeavour, Edward Heron-Allen, Gino Sabbattini, Fred Gettings and Andrew Fitzherbert. I owe a particular debt of thanks to Fred Gettings whose work 'The Book of the Hand' of 1965 was the inspiration for my own researches into this subject. Most of all I must thank my good friend and constant challenger on matters historical over many, many years of correspondence, Andrew Fitzherbert. It is to him that this work is dedicated.

And to all the frauds, imposters and would-be wizards, I thank you also. For it is always true that one can never find the jewel without having previously sifted through all the dross.



The above is something written by someone whose ideas says what.

If u believe that that knowing the future is bad do not delve in it. Delving into the future is for the strong minded.
As for the phrase"And yet, there are still many more nooks and crannies to be explored". Even medical science needs exploration to develop itself.

Hello Leotim

RE:  is palmistry a knowledge from god or devil?

I was raised to believe that palmistry or any kind
of divination was wrong,  I wouldn't go anywhere near it,
because of this...  

However, 20 years ago a dear friend gave birth to a
Downs Syndrome child.
He was diagnosed by the Doctor the second he saw the
newly born's handprint.  Hmmmmm... This wan't a gypsy.
The hand print was correct. I thought this to be most
interesting.

I gave palmistry a good look and found that it is rather
Scientific ... Nothing to fear here at all.
