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
If the eyebrows are very hairy, and that hair long and curled, with
several of the hairs starting out, the gentleman or lady is of a gloomy
disposition, litigious and quarrelsome, although a coward; greedy after
the affairs of this world, perpetually brooding over some melancholy
subject and not an agreeable companion. He will be diffident, penurious,
and weak in his understanding; never addicted to any kind of learning. He
will pretend much friendship, but will make his affected passion
subservient to his pecuniary designs, and given to drinking, &c.
If a gentleman or lady has long eyebrows, with some long hairs, they will
be of a fickle disposition, weak-minded, credulous and vain, always
seeking after novelties and neglecting their own business; they will be
talkative, pert, and disagreeable in company; very fond of contradiction,
and will not bear disappointment patiently; and also much addicted to
drinking, &c.
If the eyebrows are thick and even, that is, without any or few starting
hairs, the lady or gentleman will be of an agreeable temper, sound
understanding and tolerable wit; moderately addicted to pleasure, fearful
of giving offence, but intrepid and persevering in support of right;
charitable and generous, sincere in their professions of love and
friendship and enjoy a good constitution.
If the eyebrow is small, thin of hair, and even, the lady or gentleman
will be weak-minded, timorous, superficial and not to be depended on; they
will be desirous of knowledge, but will not have patience and assiduity to
give it the necessary attention; they will be desirous of praise for
worthy actions, but will not have the spirit or perseverance to perform
them in that degree of excellence that is requisite to attract the notice
of wise men. They will be of a delicate constitution.
If the eyebrow is thick of hair towards the nose and goes off suddenly
very thin, ending in a point, the lady or gentleman will be surly,
capricious, jealous, fretful and easily provoked to rage; in their love
they will be intemperate.
The eye that is large, full, prominent and clear, denotes a lady or
gentleman to be of an ingenious and candid disposition, void of deceit and
of an even, agreeable and affable disposition; modest and bashful in love,
though by no means an enemy to its gratification; firm, though not
obstinate; of a good understanding, of an agreeable but not brilliant wit;
but clear and just in argument; inclined to extravagance and easily
imposed upon.
The eye that is small, but advanced in the head, shows the lady or
gentleman to be of a quick wit, sound constitution, lively genius,
agreeable company and conversation, good morals, but rather inclined to
jealousy; attentive to business, fond of frequently changing his place,
punctual in fulfilling his engagements, warm in love, prosperous in his
undertakings and generally fortunate in most things.
