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
The lady or gentleman whose eyes are sunk in the head is of a jealous,
distrustful, malicious and envious nature; deceitful in their words and
actions, never to be depended upon; cunning in overreaching others,
vainglorious and associates with lewd and bad company.
The gentleman or lady who squints, or have their eyes turned awry, will be
of a penurious disposition, but punctual in their dealings.
A black eye is lively, brisk and penetrating, and proves the person who
possesses it to be of a sprightly wit, lively conversation, not easily
imposed upon, of a sound understanding, but if taken on the weak side, may
be led astray for a while.
A hazel eye shows the person to be of a subtle, piercing and frolicsome
turn, rather inclined to be arch, and sometimes mischievous, but
good-natured at the bottom. He will be strongly inclined to love and not
over delicate in the means of gratifying that propensity.
A blue eye shows the person to be of a meek and gentle temper, affable and
good-natured, credulous and incapable of violent attachment; over-modest,
cool and undisturbed by turbulent passions, of a strong memory, in
constitution neither robust nor delicate, subject to no violent impression
from the vicissitudes of life, whether good or bad.
A gray eye denotes the person to be of weak intellect, devoid of wit, but
a plain, plodding, downright drudge, that will act as he is spirited by
others. He will be slow in learning anything that requires attention; he,
however, will be just to the best of his understanding.
A wall eye denotes the person to be of a hasty, passionate and
ungovernable temper, subject to sudden and violent anger; haughty to his
equals and superiors, but mild and affable to his inferiors.
A red, or as it is vulgarly called, a saucer eye, denotes the person to be
selfish, deceitful and proud; furious in anger, fertile in the invention
of plots and indefatigable in his resolution to bring them to bear.
A nose that comes even on the ridge, flat on the sides, with little or no
hollow between the eyes, declares the man to be sulky, insolent,
disdainful, treacherous and self-sufficient; if it has a point descending
over the nostrils, he is avaricious and unfeeling, vainglorious and
ignorant; peevish, jealous, quick in resentment, yet a coward at the
bottom.
A nose that rises with a sudden bulge a little below the eyes, and then
falls again into a kind of hollow below, is petulant and noisy, void of
science and of a very light understanding.
The nose that is small, slender and peaked, shows the person to be of a
fearful disposition, jealous, fretful and insidious, ever suspicious of
those about him, catching at every word that he can interpret to his own
advantage to ground his dispute upon and also very curious to know what is
said and done.
