Divination

One of the most powerful tools at the disposal of a witch or magician is Divination. Divination is a branch of magick which deals with predicting the most likely outcome of events if a series of conditions do not change or how the outcome will be effected if certain things happen. Divination allows a witch to decide if a certain action will have the desired results or if negative things will happen. In addition, divination can also be a guide to better understanding yourself, the world abut you and the univeserse.

This lesson coveres the different types of divination and several are looked at in detail (Ouija, Tea Leaf Reading, Runes, Fire Gazing, Water Gazing, Tarot).
