AthenaSurrenders -> Fortunes Told, Dreams Interpreted (12/27/2013 6:04:02 AM)
I got an amazing Christmas gift from my awesome mother, and I thought it might be a bit of a giggle to share it with you. She got me a book printed 1860 with the tremendous title: 'Peletiah Pettengill's Perfect Fortune-Teller and Dream-Book; Or, the ART OF DISCERNING FUTURE EVENTS as practiced by MODERN SEERS AND ASTROLOGERS being also A Key to the Hidden Mysteries of the Middle Ages. To which is added CURIOUS AND AMUSING CHARMS, INVOCATIONS, SIGNS ETC' If anyone cares to take a turn, I will interpret your dream, tell you your zodiac-based personality (be warned, some of them are damning!), advise you on how to choose a good husband or wife, make various prognostications based on your moles, or provide you with charms to make your wife fruitful or check if your valentine is true to you. Anyone want to play?

Lol I'm an Aquarius with a beauty mark on my right cheek. The cheek on my face ( before all you kinky bastards start picturing my ass) Give it a go Athena!!

AthenaSurrenders -> RE: Fortunes Told, Dreams Interpreted (12/27/2013 6:14:01 AM)
Right-o - fair warning, this woman is primarily concerned with making good marriages and bearing babies! Your beauty mark 'predicts gravity of character, good courage, fortitude, moderate success in life' You'll marry late but have a good spouse, and any children you have will be intelligent. It's an even better sign if it's very dark in colour (which means you'll be rich and powerful), and the bigger it is, the better! An Aquarius woman will be 'of a studious, industrious, and sedentary disposition; in love she will be constant and moderate; she will make a kind and tender mother, and an affectionate wife.' Looks like the fates are smiling on you, Blonderfluff!

Where on earth did your mother find this 1860 divination and dream book? I'm not an Aquarius, but I want Blonderfluff's fortune.... My dreams are too complicated to go into right now, so here goes: I'm a Libra. I DO have a beauty mark near the base of my left cheek. (Yes, the other kind of cheek.) I don't have a Valentine, so I would need advice on how to choose the right man. He has to be submissive, though, no compromising there.

I don't have a Valentine, so I would need advice on how to choose the right man. He has to be submissive, though, no compromising there. I think it was through Alibris, or some similar rare books site. I've always been fascinated with all sorts of folk-magic and fortune telling. She's a very thoughtful lady. A libra woman: 'of a prudent, modest and virtuous disposition, dignified in her manners, affable and agreeable in her conversation, generous in her temper, and in life she will be very happy. In the business of love she will consider it her first duty to gratify her husband, and she will make an obedient and complying wife, and a careful and attentive mother'. Hmmm... might have missed the mark there, Peletiah. Obedient and complying wife doesn't go well for a dominant woman. Now, in order to help you find an appropriate match I need to know your hair colour, shade of complexion and eye colour, also your build (if that's not too personal).

omg best gift ever! i'm a leo. i have a recurring dream in which i'm golfing with my (long dead) father on some super trashy course that's literally right next to a loud amusement park. there are two other dudes, a fat dude and a skinny dude, in our foursome who keep sucking up to dad. we're all wearing swords and my dad warns me that there are goblins known to live in this course which he hates playing. we get up to a sand trap and there is a huge whale flopping around and something trying to crawl out of its blowhole. my father looks disgusted and mutters "goddamn prophets. they're terrible this time of year." i don't really remember anything else. added fact: in real life i hate golf but love the outfits.

Im a Gemini with no birth marks, have a bad habit of hooking up with woman in the "sick puppy" genre, been married 4 times, and my dreams usually involve memories of combat, my late mother telling me to play the lotto, or wondering through an old house. Ancestrally, I am of the wolf clan of the Cherokee, the wolf figures strong in my Apache ancestry and one of my Welsh ancestors had a wolf on his coat of arms.

Way-y-y off the mark, but on the other hand, I'm not looking to become anybody's wife--I would be his Mistress.

Your dream isn't promising. It seems that you are (or will soon be) poor (the sword), you are in great peril of losing either life or property (the whale), and your wife will soon bear a child of dubious paternity (the other dudes). Ms. Pettengil doesn't speak of golf, unfortunately. HOWEVER talking with your deceased father is an auspicious omen, so I guess there's light at the end of the tunnel. Leo Man: 'will be of an unruly, turbulent, rapacious and quarrelsome disposition, always inclined to dispute with his neighbours, and enter into lawsuits: in life he will be forever scheming, without accomplishing his ends: he will be troublesome to others and to himself, and for the most part be unhappy: in love he will be indifferent, making it a secondary consideration: he will be unfaithful whenever his interests so dictate: he will make a morose husband and negligent father'. Ouch. Sounds like you would be a good match for me. I'm disagreeable, imperious and inclined to strong liquors.

It appears you should choose a 'light complexioned, fleshy, good tempered man, fond of eating and of ease generally'. You might make him fret sometimes, but that's apparently good for his health. Alternatively, a red-haired man who is amorous suits 'a dark passionate girl who is exceedingly fond of having her own way' Edit because I missed it: A beauty mark on the buttock unfortunately means you are shiftless and lazy!

Ancestrally, I am of the wolf clan of the Cherokee, the wolf figures strong in my Apache ancestry and one of my Welsh ancestors had a wolf on his coat of arms. Dreaming of war is a sign you are about to have a quarrel - if you see actual battles it means a messy public argument. Speaking to the dead is a good omen (perhaps you should get that lotto ticket) A Gemini man is 'of an undaunted courage, sweet and cheerful temper, lively imagination, stern in his resentments though not easily provoked.' You'll be ambitious, but bear many crosses in your life and be 'immoderately attached to women'. You'll be a good father but an unfaithful husband.

Gemini, birthmark on right arm and right thigh, prone to strange dreams of the military and loves medieval games. I declare myself crazy and under the care of a few doctors.

Aha, I do fancy auburn and titian shades. Ahem, to be precise, this beauty mark is on the upper thigh. How do I say this? It's on the crease. (Damn, TMI) It's in no man's land, on the borderline. I have a feeling you are going to have a busy morning! [:o]

Ouch. Sounds like you would be a good match for me. I'm disagreeable, imperious and inclined to strong liquors. all eerily accurate i'm afraid, as i've recently gambled away a family fortune at various disreputable clubs in moscow and dubai and some of my more colourful creditors have taken to threatening my life in increasingly less subtle ways (this morning i awoke to find a very convincingly contrived toy gun had been placed next to my pillow while i slept), the description of me as a leo is completely wrong though, as i prefer to think of myself as more "choleric" than "quarrelsome."

If it makes you feel any better, I happen to think Leo men make great lovers. Can't help with the gambling problem--I might turn out to be too shiftless and lazy! [8\|] You don't have red hair, do you? ETA: Thanks AthenaSurrenders, you're a sweetheart.

Toysinbabeland -> RE: Fortunes Told, Dreams Interpreted (12/27/2013 7:56:44 AM)
Ahem... I dream of discovering many "extra" rooms in the home. The architecture is stunning, yet familiar, and almost always has innovation to die for. I've got a Valentine. He's got light brown hair, and I've got strawberry blonde. I've got no moles, but a birthmark on my left leg.

windchymes -> RE: Fortunes Told, Dreams Interpreted (12/27/2013 8:03:21 AM)
I'd love to hear some of the charms, like the valentine one, since the day is coming :) I have a mole on the bottom of my right foot, is that in there? That does sound like a really cool book.

Spiritedsub2 -> RE: Fortunes Told, Dreams Interpreted (12/27/2013 8:39:10 AM)
What a terrific gift! I want a reading too please! Pisces, beauty mark on my left (face) cheek, and lots of flying dreams.

Apparently your dream means you have (or will soon have) a new admirer. A mark on the leg means 'a thoughtless and indolent disposition, much given to the pleasures of love, extravagance and dissipation. You will at some time be imprisoned [I sure hope you're into cages and this doesn't mean jail!] but after that you will do better and have good luck. There are some combinations of brown-haired men and blonde/red women being a good match - particularly if he is 'thin and fretful' with an active mind and you are 'plump and amiable' (the fatter the better, apparently!). If on the other hand, you are vain and conceited you need to trade him in for a man with 'hair of raven blackness' who has a character of firmness and resolution.

I declare myself crazy and under the care of a few doctors. The military again indicates public arguments, I'm afraid. Can't find anything about medieval games. Gemini women are 'of a peevish and fretful temper; she will be vindictive and revengeful, not very industrious, but inclined to neatness in dress and in her house. In love she will be credulous and jealous, much inclined to the pleasures of the marriage bed.' So you're mean, but at least you're tidy. A mole on the right arm denotes wisdom, prudence and riches. The right thigh indicates an agreeable temper and inclined to be amorous. You'll have many fine children, mostly girls.
