How-To Read Palms - Chiromancy
If you do not believe in the paranormal or metaphysical please do not leave mean or rude comments on the instructable, thank you :) We realize the metaphysical & paranormal can be emotional for people who want to judge or testify for religion but we're not here doing that to others so please don't do it to us. The belief that reading a person's palm reveals a pre-destined life is far from a new idea. This practice has existed since Biblical times, many believing that 2nd Corinthians shows that God sealed every person's palm with their destiny. 2 Corinthians 1:21-22 "Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm in Christ. He anointed us, set his seal of ownership on us, and put his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come." As the witch hunt years sank into Europe some European countries outlawed the practice of Palmistry (such as England) and was condemned by the Catholic Church. However, other countries (such as Germany) embraced this "seal" of destiny and offered it as courses in their universities. When reading you should read your dominant hand for the best results.
