PRELOVED Encyclopedia of Fortune Telling - Francis X King

This is a secondhand book. It has been used!
In very good condition- some scuff marks on the dust jacket, and the book itself looks unread.

A beautifully illustrated pictorial with informative text. This book is excellent for the novice as well as the more experienced fortune teller, who wishes to broaden their knowledge and repertoire. This book covers everything from tarot cards, crystal gazing & scrying, palmistry, casting runes, the I Ching, numerology, Western astrology, Chinese astrology, and other fortune-telling methods plus a list of further reading.

The ONLY book you will need to understand and practice fortune-telling.

The lines on a palm, the symbols of the tarot, even the suits and numbers on playing cards -- these are some of the remarkable ways to tell fortunes. Practice any of 16 methods to glimpse what may be in store for you, your friends, and family: numerology, runes, crystal gazing, the I Ching, astrology, dream interpretation, and more. Or step into the past and trace predictions of famous fortunetellers, such as Nostradamus. With over 200 prints, paintings and photographs.

This is an introduction to the practical art of fortune-telling. An initial chapter describes the lives and predictions of some of fortune-telling's outstanding characters. The following chapters deal with the different techniques for indicating future events, such as tarot cards, Chinese and Western astrology, palmistry, crystal gazing and numerology, while the final chapter mentions some less well-known techniques.
