The Meanings of Moles

StarzCristina

The gypsies of the world, whether they be from Romania, Spain, Ireland or America are superstitious people particularly when it came to moles on the body. They believed the appearance and placement of moles represented a personality characteristic of the individual or it was a “sign” of things to come.

If the mole was very large and round, it meant abundance or prosperity. The darker the mole, the more pronounced that characteristic. If the mole was oblong then it signified a moderate share of good fortune. If the mole had a hair, it signified the person has strong intuitive power and could even be a healer or psychic.

According to my grandmother, Antolina Mateos Ramos, and Raymond Buckland, scholar of Gypsy life, moles on different parts of the body have different meanings as follows:

Forehead: To have a mole in the middle of the forehead represents wisdom. This person has clear insights. She is active and industrious. It also means this person will probably have a happy marriage. On the right side of the head, it means she will make a great partner in business or marriage. If the mole is on the left side of the head, then her luck may not be so good.

Eyebrows: If you have a mole on the right side of your eyebrow, it signifies great success, a wonderful marriage, many healthy children, wealth. If it is on the left side signifies cowardice, addiction, few children, and bitterness in life.

Eyes: A mole outside the corner of either eye is a good sign the individual is honest, sober and trustworthy.

Nose: A mole on any part of the nose means the person has a passionate disposition, the larger the mole the more they seek sexual activity J

Cheek: A mole on either cheek indicates the person is strong athletically and has a lot of courage. The larger the mole the “faster” the individual tends to be physically.

Ear: If a mole appears on the ear at all, it’s a sign that the individual will have money. But if the mole appears in the lower half of the ear it means the person should be careful around water because they have the propensity to drown.

Lip: A mole that appears on the lip means the person should watch their weight and diet. They may have some health issues in their life that need constant attending.

Chin: A mole on the chin signifies a person who loves to travel and is brilliant in business. The individual is friendly and charming and probably a good salesperson because she is a natural persuader.

Neck: A mole on the front of the neck signifies good luck at the card table. If the mole is on the back of the neck it means the person could become a “pain in the neck” as she gets older and luck is not so good.

Shoulder: If a person has a mole on their left shoulder, she is usually apt to be quarrelsome and may insist she is right all the time. She may find her life monotonous and dull.
