Sternomancy . . . fortunetelling with breastomancy or breast gazing

The English edition of Pravda once published a short piece discussing how a Women’s Inner World Written on Their Breasts and Nipples (see http://english.pravda.ru/society/sex/05-03-2009/107192-women_breasts-0/ for the original article in English-translation).

While some folks prefer the term Breastomancy, the correct term for this sort of practice is Sternomancy, a method of divination that was particularly popular in Spain in the Eighteenth Century and has cousins in Asia, particularly with practitioners in Thailand and Japan.

Sternomancy is related to palmistry, phrenology, and the like in that there is a belief that one’s “fortune” is written upon one’s body, particularly in the breasts and nipples.

While our purpose here is certainly not to provide a comprehensive course in Sternomancy, those who are logged in as Premium members can see a brief primer below that discusses different breast shape and their correlations with personality as well as nipple type.

There you have it. Now you have all you need to get started, regardless of whether or not you believe in the phenomena associated with Sternomancy or if you think it’s more a matter of Forer’s Effect in action or if you’re like some rather beyond creepy folks who use the excuse of Sternomancy to fondle women’s breasts.

So . . . barring creepiness, happy Breast Gazing!

Just for fun . . . and a bit more . . . Basic members can view here a very brief video clip of a Sternomancy master in action in Japan as women enter his shop, much like that of any other fortuneteller, and they then sit behind a special screening setup to accent the breasts as he pokes, prods, and much more to read their fortune while consulting charts and diagrams.

Please note, the following video is most NSFW (that’s very very not safe for work).

Obviously, this particular fellow is a bit on the well-beyond-creepy side and he is taking advantage of the context to molest a number of these girls (actually, this video is heavily edited as some of the original footage includes some very very unprofessional inappropriate behavior on his part).

Of course, the purpose of this particular post is certainly not to convert anyone into becoming fledgling sternomancers. Far from it. However, it is worth noting that this rather unknown practice is still active today.

No, sorry, but my Psychic and Metaphysical Hypnosis DVD set at http://www.briandavidphillips.com/products/psychic.html does not cover sternomancy. However, it does cover a number of much more useful and very very effective and powerful processes.

All the best,
