Another word for chiromancy; the practice of telling someone's future or fortune by examining the lines and shape of their hand.
From Greek 'cheir' (hand) + '-manteia' (divination). This term is essentially synonymous with chiromancy and emphasizes the divinatory aspect rather than scientific study.
Ancient Greeks and Romans believed the lines on your hand were written by the Fates themselves—which is why hand-reading became so culturally powerful across continents.
