Palmist Pat F. is practicing palmistry in Singapore. Pat writes on her website Palmistryworld.com:

“WHAT IS CHEIROMANCY?”

… Cheiromancy (Kee-roh-man-see) is the art of foretelling a person’s likely future by knowing his/her character from reading the palm lines in their hands. The name is derived from the Greek cheir for “hand”, and manteia for “divination”.

Cheiromancy is the old name for palmistry or palm reading, and is still in use today. It is at times spelt as Chiromancy or Kiromancy. It is also referred to as Cheirology, Chirology, or Kirology. However, Cheirology really is the study of the lines of the palm, without any divination involved.

Chirognomy and Chirosophy are related subjects – the former is the study of the shapes and bumps of the fingers and hands, and the latter is the study of the philosophical and esoteric aspects of palmistry.”

Beth Davis writes on her website www.handanalyst.com about Hand Analysis:

“What is Hand Analysis?

Palmistry as a form of divination emerged in India over 5,000 years ago

Hand analysis is a combination of ancient palmistry, the latest scientific data and current advances in human psychology and philosophy

Hand analysis is NOT predictive (I can’t tell you how many children you’re going to have or when you’re going to meet that tall, dark stranger.)

Hand analysis is a repeatable system, based upon thousands of hands studied

Hand analysis can be learned, like learning to read or play a musical instrument

Hand analysis does not require psychic ability”
