The reading of palms (or, to give its Greek title, chiromancy) is an old and established form of divination, interpreting the lines of the hands and acroos the fingers to read the shape of one's fate. But the use of the gestures of the hands for operative sorcery and spell-craft - to actually change and redirect fate - is rather less well known or discussed, despite being an incredibly powerful technique in the magical practitioner's arsenal.
 
In this class, professional diviner, consultant sorcere, and historian of magic, Dr. Alexander Cummins will take us through the fundamentals of such gestural magics, concentrating on their applications in planetary magic - from empowering ingredients to directing energy, and fro launching spells to saluting spirits. No previous knowledge of astrology of astrological magic required!
