Many times we would like to know the outcome of casting a particular spell. Will it accomplish the goal exactly as we envisioned? This simple spell will help give you insight before you cast. While holding a deck of Tarot cards, relax and focus on your goal. Say the words:
“Show me the true Path!”
Draw three cards.
The first represents past influences, the second shows the current situation, and the final card will show the outcome of casting the spell.
Once the fire has died to a glowing reddish-white mass of coals, stare into its heart. If you wish, throw some Fire of Azrael incense onto the coals (equal parts cedar, juniper & sandalwood). This will flare up & burn, but will quickly die down. With the scented smoke rising from the divination incense scry in the coals. See what shapes the charred wood seem to form, & determine their meaning through the language of symbolism.
Take a broad, thin piece of bark. Put it into a bright fire until it catches flame then quickly set it a little distance from the fire. When it has stopped burning, carefully stare at the symbols visible in the charred ash-laden wood.
Large ritual fires and bonfires also supply divinatory information. Capnomancy divines using images appearing in the smoke of ritual fires. Enhances the divinatory power by burning herbs associated with psychic vision: mugwort, wormwood, Syrian rue (harmel), diviner’s sage.
A slightly different version observes which part of the fan burns versus which part doesn’t.
Fold paper into an accordion-style fan.
Write desires or choices on each fold of the fan.
Place the paper in a fireproocc receptacle and set it alight.
only light the paper once should the flame go out without burning the paper in its entirety, analyze remaining words versus destroyed words to receive your oracle.
Should the entire fan go up in smoke, this is an extremely auspicious siign, a blessing on your future plans.
Flames may be interpreted without candles or containers, although even greater fire safety vigilance must be maintained: a Slavic method creates and then burns a paper fan.
Fold paper into an accordion-style fan.
Stand it up in a vertical direction.
Set it on fire.
The oracle is received by interpreting the flames as well as shadows cast.
A particularly bright full moon, shining low on a cloudless night provides an extremely powerful scrying surface. When the moon presents this face, venture out so that you are exposed to the moonbeams. Although the divination may be performed indoors or in the shadows, you own psychic reception is enhanced by exposure to moon light.
In this version three arrows may be used, one designates an affirmative answer, the second, a negative answer and the third is left blank, because not all fates can be revealed. Separate messages can be attached to each arrow or the arrows may be distinguished in other ways.
Known as belomancy, this is an ancient method of divination mentioned in the Bible and especially popular among Babylonians, Scythians, Slavs, and Germans. Various methods are used.
Snails can spell as well as roosters can. This divination method traditionally uses fireplace ashes. A more potent version might involve writing your queries on paper, burning them and using those ashes instead. For a quick fix method, use flour.
Make a smooth, even bed of ashes or flour.
Gently place a snail in the center of this bed.
Allow the snail to wander as it will and leave the circle when it chooses.
The shape of its trail will indicate initials, letters or images to provide your oracle.
Book are formed from words, words are formed from letters. One school of Kabbalah suggests that the Creator formed the entire world from Hebrew letters. Individual letters, of any alphabet, may be used to provide an oracle.
