The Gipsy Fortune Teller
Containing: Judgment for the 29 Days of the Moon, the Signification of Moles, and the Art of Telling Fortunes by Dice, Dominoes, &c., &c.
Transcribed from the [1860?] T. Goode edition by David Price
"The Gipsy Fortune Teller" by W. Parker is a guidebook on astrology and divination written during the mid-19th century, likely in the Victorian era. The book explores the beliefs and practices associated with fortune-telling, offering judgments based on astrological principles for each day of the lunar month, as well as interpretations of moles and methods for divining using dice and dominoes. In this work, Parker provides readers with detailed descriptions of the fortune-telling practices, elaborating on how characteristics, health prospects, and personal fortunes can be influenced by the day of the month on which an individual is born. Each entry outlines the potential fortune associated with different birthdays and includes insights into relationships, career prospects, and health. Moreover, the book includes sections dedicated to the significance of physical features such as moles and gives practical advice on interpreting outcomes through games of chance like dice and dominoes. The overall theme emphasizes a belief in fate and the influence of celestial bodies on human lives, catering to the curiosities of those interested in astrology and the mystical arts of the time.
