Summary
Details

La Chirognomonie; Ou, L'art De Reconnaitre Les Tendances De L'intelligence D'après Les Formes De La Main (Chirognomy; Or, The Art of Recognizing the Tendencies of Intelligence According to the Forms of the Hand) explores the historical practice of palmistry. Written by Casimir Stanislas Arpentigny and originally published in 1843, this volume delves into the occult science of interpreting character and predicting the future through the study of hand shapes.

Arpentigny presents a detailed examination of hand forms, their classifications, and their correlation to various intellectual and personality traits. This work offers a fascinating glimpse into 19th-century occult studies and the enduring human fascination with divination and self-understanding. It remains a significant text for those interested in the history of palmistry and the broader field of occultism.
