Palmistry, also known as chiromancy, has ancient roots dating back thousands of years. This practice began in ancient India, with references in the Vedic scriptures, and later spread to China, Tibet, Persia, Egypt, and Greece.
Historical Significance
Throughout history, palmistry has been practiced by scholars, mystics, and healers. In medieval Europe, it was studied alongside astrology. By the 19th century, influential palmists like Cheiro brought palmistry into mainstream Western culture.
Modern Palmistry
Modern palmistry practitioners combine traditional interpretations with contemporary psychological understanding, offering readings that focus on personality traits, natural tendencies, and potential life paths rather than rigid predictions.
