Dactylomancy : ウィキペディア英語版 | Dactylomancy
Dactylomancy, from the Greek word for finger, is a term used by proponents to define a form of divination using rings.〔Jacob, P. L. (1878) "Science and Literature in the Middle Ages, and at the Period of the Renaissance", Bickers and Son〕 == Modern dactylomancy ==
In some traditions of dactylomancy, a ring is suspended like a pendulum above a surface that is marked with letters or symbols. The direction of the swing indicates which symbols are to be consulted, or which letter are to be formed into a message, in answer to a specific question.〔Spence, Lewis (2003), "Encyclopedia of Occultism and Parapsychology", Kessinger Publishing, ISBN 0-7661-2815-6〕〔Cunningham, Scott (2003), "Divination for Beginners: Reading the Past, Present & Future", Llewellyn Worldwide, ISBN 0-7387-0384-2〕 Another tradition follows the same pattern as Séance table-rapping. In it a ring is suspended from a tumbler so that it may touch the sides if swung and a code is agreed upon (e.g., 1 for yes, 2 for no). A question is then posed and the number of the times that the ring strikes the side of the tumbler is interpreted as being an answer.〔〔
