The Witches' Dream Book; and Fortune Teller: Embracing full and correct rules of divination concerning dreams and visions, foretelling of future events, their scientific application to physiognomy, palmistry, moles, cards, &c.; together with the application and observance of talismen charms, spells and incantations.
Noe, A. H.
Dreams; Fortune-telling
A lady with the same kind of hair is tender-hearted, but hasty in temper;
neither obstinate nor haughty; her inclination to love never unreasonable;
her constitution will be good, but she will be seldom very fortunate.
A gentleman with fair hair will be of a weak constitution; his mind given
much to reflection, especially on religious matters. He will be assiduous
in his occupation, but not given to rambling; very moderate in his amorous
wishes; but he will not live to an old age.
A lady with this colored hair is on the contrary of a good constitution;
never to be diverted from her purpose; passionate in love affairs, never
easy unless in company, and delights in hearing herself praised,
especially for beauty; delights in dancing and strong exercises and
commonly lives to a great age.
A gentleman with long red hair is cunning, artful and deceitful; he is
much addicted to traffic of some kind, restless in his disposition,
constantly roving and desirous of enjoying the pleasures of love. He is
covetous of getting money and spends it foolishly; he is indefatigable and
no obstacle will induce him to forsake his enterprise until he has seen
the issue of it. He is inclined to timidity, but by reflection may correct
it and pass for a man of courage.
A lady with the same kind of hair, is glib of tongue, talkative and vain;
her temper is impatient and fiery and will not submit to contradiction;
she has a constant flow of spirits and is much given to the pleasures of
love. However delicate her person may seem, her constitution is generally
vigorous; but she seldom lives to see old age, for obvious reasons. Her
promises are seldom to be depended upon, because the next object that
engrosses her attention makes her forgetful of everything that preceded
it, and she will always resent any disappointment she may meet with.
If the hair falls off at the fore part of the head, the person will be
easily led, though otherwise rational, and will often be duped when he
thinks he is acting right; he will likewise frequently meet with
disappointments in money matters, which will either hurt his credit, or
force him to shorten his expenses.
If the hair falls off behind, he will be obstinate, peevish, passionate
and fond of commanding others, though he has no right, and will grow angry
if his advice is not followed. However preposterous, he will be fond of
hearing and telling old stories and tales of ghosts and fairies, but will
be a good domestic man and provide for his family to the utmost of his
power.
If the hair forms an arch around the forehead, without being much
indented at the temples, both the lady and the gentleman will be innocent,
credulous, moderate in all their desires, and though not ardent in their
pursuits, will still be persevering. They will be modest, good-natured,
prosperous and happy.
