Understanding the Physiognomy of Gypsy Witchcraft

The principles of philosophy demonstrate that human features are a reflection of the mental and physical workings of the system, as influenced by surrounding circumstances. These features play an important role in depicting the lights and shades of temperament and disposition. Additionally, the color and nature of the hair are indicative of character. In the following sections, we will explore the prognostics drawn from hair, forehead, eyebrows, eyes, nose, mouth, chin, and the overall assemblage of features.

Gentleman: A man with very black and smooth hair, hanging far over his shoulders and in large quantity, is mild but resolute; cool until greatly provoked; not inclined to excesses; constant in his attachments and not prone to many misfortunes.

Lady: A woman with the same kind of hair is moderate in her desires; addicted to reflection; not violent in love, but steady in her attachments.

Gentleman: This type of hair suggests a man given to liquor; somewhat quarrelsome and of unsettled temper; desirous of riches but often disappointed in his wishes.

Gentleman: Generally robust, obstinate, eager in pursuits, a lover of the fair sex, fond of variety, curious, and flexible. He is likely to live long unless guilty of early intemperance.

Lady: Similar to the gentleman but more steady in conduct and attachments, especially in love. She will enjoy good health, have many children, and a reasonable share of happiness.

This hair type makes minimal changes in character. A gentleman with such hair will be quicker to strike when provoked, while a lady will be more prone to scolding.

Gentleman: Peaceable, even-tempered, and rather generous; will prevent mischief if possible but will strike furiously when provoked, later feeling sorry for his passion. He is amiable, affable, and kind.

Lady: Tender-hearted but hasty in temper; neither obstinate nor haughty. She has a good constitution but is seldom very fortunate.

Gentleman: Of a weak constitution; reflective, especially on religious matters; assiduous in occupation but not given to rambling; moderate in amorous wishes and unlikely to live to old age.

Lady: In contrast, she has a good constitution; determined in purpose; passionate in love, enjoys company, and delights in praise. She often lives to a great age.

Gentleman: Cunning, artful, and deceitful; addicted to some form of trade, restless, and desirous of love pleasures. He is covetous of money but spends it foolishly; indefatigable and not easily deterred.

Lady: Talkative, vain, impatient, and fiery; does not submit to contradiction, enjoys love pleasures, and has a vigorous constitution but seldom lives to old age. Her promises are unreliable.

Such a person will be easily led, rational yet often duped, and prone to money disappointments affecting their credit or forcing expense reduction.

This indicates obstinacy, peevishness, passion, and a fondness for commanding others. The person will enjoy telling old stories and will be a good provider for the family.

Both men and women with an arching hairline are innocent, credulous, moderate in desires, persevering, modest, good-natured, prosperous, and happy.

A person with a low hairline is selfish, designing, surly, unsociable, and prone to drinking. They are addicted to avarice and constantly scheming.

Indicates a gloomy, litigious, quarrelsome disposition; greedy, brooding over melancholy subjects, and not an agreeable companion. The person is diffident, penurious, and weak in understanding.

This feature suggests a fickle disposition, weak-mindedness, credulous nature, vanity, talkativeness, and a tendency towards contradiction and drinking.

A person with such eyebrows has an agreeable temper, sound understanding, tolerable wit, moderate addiction to pleasure, generosity, sincerity in love and friendship, and a good constitution.
