Divination

 

From the earliest stages of civilization people have used various means of divination to communicate with the supernatural when seeking help in their public and private lives. Divination is most often practiced as a means of foretelling the future, and sometimes the past. It is one of the primary practices used by witches, wizards, medicine men, sorcerers, and shamans. These various groups of persons are often called diviners, who often belonged to special classes of priests and priestesses in past and present civilizations, and are specially trained in the practice and interpretation of their divinatory skills.

Cartomancy (literally, divination from cards) is a type of fortune-telling by reading cards such as the tarot. See Tarot Cards

Dowsing is the action of a person--called the dowser--using a rod, stick or other device--called a dowsing rod, dowsing stick, doodlebug (when used to locate oil) or divining rod--to locate such things as underground water, hidden metal, buried treasure, oil, lost persons or golf balls, etc.  The dowser tries to locate objects by occult means.Map dowsers use a dowsing device, usually a pendulum, over maps to locate oil, minerals, persons, water, etc. However, the prototype of a dowser is the field dowser who walks around an area using a forked stick to locate underground water. When above water, the rod points downward. (Some dowsers use two rods. The rods cross when above water.)

Scrying is a type of divination. To scry  is to spy out or discover by the eye objects at a distance. In occult literature, the term is used to describe the act of gazing at a shiny stone or mirror or into a crystal ball or into a dark dish of water,  to see things past and future. (When a crystal is used, scrying is known as catoptromancy or crystallomancy.) Occultists claim that if one concentrates hard enough while gazing, one can conjure up the dead because scrying allegedly clears out the consciousness and opens a direct line to the other world.

Runes are an alphabetic script used by the peoples of Northern Europe from the first century c.e. until well into the Middle Ages.In addition to their use as a written alphabet, the runes also served as a system of symbols used for magic and divination.

Scrying the Secrets of the Future: How to Use Crystal Balls, Water, Fire, Wax, Mirrors, Shadows, and Spirit Guides to Reveal Your Destiny  R160  item added 23 Sept 2008

Cassandra Eason

Scrying means seeing magical images in a reflective medium, such as a crystal ball, mirror, or natural source of inspiration like fire, water or clouds. The word “scry,” derived from the Anglo-Saxon word descry, means to “perceive dimly.”
Scrying in shiny surfaces has been practiced in almost every culture and time, not only by mystics, clairvoyants and magicians, but also by every girl who has gazed into a mirror and hoped to see her lover’s face in the glass.
Though it is one of the most ancient ways of predicting the future, scrying is as relevant today as when our distant ancestors gazed into pools by moonlight to locate the herds – it does not conflict with modern scientific knowledge or psychology.
Scrying the Secrets of the Future offers practical, hands-on guidance to using a wide variety of methods from many cultures and ages—from Ancient Egypt, the Aztecs and Mayans, and Classical Greece and Rome to Medieval European magicians, village wise women and 21st century coffee-shop divination.
Discussion of each method includes its history and cultural background, traditional practices, and how to adapt these techniques to the needs of the modern world and everyday decision making. This unique book will help you:
• Learn to see and interpret images in many forms, including wax, herbs and oils 
on water, crystal balls and candles, shadows and dark mirrors. 
• Explore additional techniques of clairaudience, psychic hearing and 
clairsentience, and psychic impressions, to make your scrying multi 
dimensional.
• Discover how to prepare yourself psychically, find the best scrying tools, 
empower them, ensure you are protected spiritually as you work, and how to 
close down your psychic energies after divination.
• Find out how to maximize future possibilities, avoid potential problems, and 
advise others privately and professionally through clairvoyance
• Communicate with and channel angels and spirit guides and discover past lives 
and worlds.

The Magic Mirror:Divination through the Ancient Art of Scrying   R420
by John Nelson
“Snow White is the fairest of them all,” says the evil queen’s mirror in Snow White. In Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, a mirror displays happenings in the realm. The Mirror of Erised in J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter books reveals a person’s deepest desires. The Mirror of Galadrial in J.R.R. Tolkien’s fantasy displays the past, present and possibilities for the future. While these accounts are fictional, the black mirror has been used for developing clairvoyance and divining the future for centuries. 
John Nelson has reinterpreted spiritual and metaphysical concepts to make them more accessible to today’s reader. You will learn the origins and history of scrying, how to develop clairvoyant powers and how you can benefit from scrying. Traditional rituals and interpretation are juxtaposed with modern-day psychological explanations. You, too, can have a magic mirror. What will your mirror reflect? 
The Magic Mirror comes in a gift box including a book, your own scrying mirror, and a CD with instructions on mastering the ancient art of scrying.  item added 4 November
