yea i have faith on all these subjects but do not have enough faith on those who are doing business in name of telling future ,if someone is making atom bomb after knowing nuclear technology that does not make the technology bad it makes the person bad who is using it for wrong purpose.

Definitely we believe in astrology, palmistry etc. Main issue is that each and every celestial bodies have their own magnetic strength and they influence human body because it is also another magnet. The behaviour of human being is definitely influenced by celestial bodies and therefore life and happenings can also be.

In my case, i don't believe in palmistry and future predictions. It's you who brings luck and it's you who make your future. There's future predictions done but they failed to predict the future. Maybe some people said what they predict to them happened that maybe a coincidence. Astrology,some of my horoscope are true but 100% maybe it's only a coincidence. Happy posting.

I dont have any faith in these. Looking for these is waste of time. Instead just put your faith in yours. Be strong to face anything. Keep your self confidence in high level. Start a work with faith that we can finish this work. Dont think about the future. If you look you cannot do things with fulfilment. Just think the world is ours. No one is going to ask us. Enjoy life every minute.Dont look on astrology and palmistry and all. Just a waste of time

I believe that astrology and palmistry do work, but not exactly. It can actually do more harm than help. If you put too much faith in them you can create negative self fulfilling prophesies. Also if you put too much faith in them you can be discontent with the journey of life, and greedily await what may or may not ever happen. Be careful, and use it for fun. Don't put too much faith in these things or it can ruin your life.

Let me put in my 2-cents:
Being a muslim I believe that Palmistry and Astronomy are forms of science and that they can't predict or change anyone's future and that only Allah has the power to know and change anyone's future.
Having said that, I believe that these people sitting on the roadside who claim to know our future or past are merely quacks who lure us common persons into telling them about ourselves and based on that sels-revealed information, they then make calculated guesses.
While I don't disagree that Palmistry and Astronomy are strong sciences and that a learned person of any of these sciences can tell much about a person or the world, still I would say that these are only as true as any other science. These are our interpretations, our names, which may or may not be the truth.

I have to admit that I am a believer. I don't trust all readers, but have encountered a couple of really accurate ones. Personally, I have studied astrology and Tarot; I am a member of Golden Dawn, an esoteric Order. I am not particularly good at either one. I have never really got into palmistry. I have also done some geomancy (not to be confused with feng shi) and biblomancy. My preferred method is Tarot, and the best readers I have encountered are using that.

I am a believer while in circle and lodge, a skeptic when outside. I have met some readers that I have told me things that no one knew, and proved to be very accurate in their predictions, including things that no one should have been able to predict. On the other hand, I have dealt with some that had to be cold-reading. In Golden Dawn, and wicca, we actually study these sciences.

Hi,
friend,
first in my country , the astology thing, and all the prediction things, we dont call them the science~~we call it the superstition~~
but maybe some people will believe in it, for they may came across some problems or hurt, sorrow things, but I just don't buy it

I don't think palmistry and astrology are ancient. Hieroglyphics is ancient, but many people still practice palmistry and astrology nowadays. I don't always believe in it though. I've very selective in what I believe in. I tend to trust my future prediction is it's positive and logical. If it's too extraordinary then I won't believe it. And if it's negative then I wouldn't want it to happen would I so I'll just doubt the prediction. :)

Hi nutanjain,
Be very careful of those people because some of them could be tricksters and no one can tell your future.

I wish theres someone who could really tell about what will happen in our lives so that we can be aware of it.But i believe all are in God's hands.Like you there was one time that i try to have my palm read out by a woman who said she was an expert of it and a card reading also.Just the fun of it but i still remember what she said about whats going to happen in my life.But alas!after five years it happened.I could not believed it.It came true.I may say, there are people that are really gifted on that thing but God can change everything that they can predict.He has all the power and i only believe on Him because He is my saviour.

I don't know if I believe or not. I have been to a palmist once and what she told me was surprisingly accurate. My brother reckons that she just guessed well etc but I am not so sure. I know I did not give her any information a I am a skeptic and very careful not to tell these people anything they can use to make informed guesses.
So I listen with an open mind and I wonder but I am not sure if what they say is accurate or not.

Hi friend,I never believe anyone predicting my future or telling my past.No one can predict our future.If you take your horroscope to 3 different astrologers you would certainly get 3 different predictions about your future.Which one would you believe?Will you take all the 3 different predictions and sit and worry about your future?Many predictions about my family and others have gone wrong and only just the opposite happened to us.My mom used to believe hooroscopes and predictions but my father and myself have just the opposite opinions about horroscopes and predictions.thanks for sharing.happy mylotting.

Hey there! I don't believe in it. I know a friend who believes in it but the opposite of their predictions was what happened to that friend of mine. There are some astrologers who says they can tell your past and future but a lot of them are fake.

well...i am not believe ancient knowledge can predict our future.
the logic is very simple, in ancient time, did the astrologist know about internet?
did they have predict about the revolution of computer?
but, i think to know that knowledge is good for you..
just to add knowledge and also for having fun......

Nope! There are only instances that predictions may happen but the fact is know one knows what will happen for the next coming days.
