 A pendulum is a simple tool to create- a cord or chain with usually a crystal attached to the end. This divination tool is usually focused on yes/no questions. If the pendulum is made by the user it typically increases the bond between tool and user. There are two different variations to how they are typically read. The clockwise/counter clockwise and back-and-forth style.  How it is used: Hold it gently within your hand, typically between your fingers so the pendulum and cord can dangle freely. Focus your energy down the cord to build a connection. It is important to program it before you ask any questions. Some people use the clockwise/counter clockwise style with back or forth direction as a maybe. Back and forth in a vertical direction means yes, side to side for no, clockwise for maybe. For both variations, the pendulum standing still means no answer. You can practice a few times to get the hang of it. Empty your mind and focus on a yes/no quest...

The art of divination can be quite simple. This exercise is an excellent tool in activating your own intuition and developing your intuitive skills. Taking an easy approach to developing your abilities allows you to discover yourself without pressure. Sometimes you can limit yourself when you put pressure on yourself. It can strain the process and makes learning difficult. Intuitive skills are instinct. 1. Find a quiet area that you find most comfortable. 2. Clear your mind and think of a simple question, such as “How will today go?” 3. Focus on your question then clear your mind. Your intuition will come up with an immediate answer. Such as “Your day will go great”. Do not doubt or over think the response. Intuition is an instinct. An automatic answer with confidence is known as your intuitive answer. This exercise may seem quite basic and almost common sense , but it is an excellent step towards your intuitive technique and is an excellent daily practice.

  This exercise is simple and can be a joy to do on your own. A tip to remember in the metaphysical and divination realm is- it is easier than you think! This exercise is a simple way to practice day to day divination technique that will enable you to “dip your toes” into the world of divination. This technique is an excellent way to open your intuition.  All you need is a book! This book can be a personal favorite book, bible, dictionary, or even a literary classic. 1. Choose a comfortable and quiet setting to sit with your book of choice. Relax and clear your mind. 2. Focus on your chosen book and riffle through the pages. As you do so, think of a simple question (for example, “What will today be like?”) and focus on this questions as you flip through pages. 3. Allow a page to “call to you” and open to this page. A line will call your attention. This will be your message. Intuitively the page calls out to you and it brings you to your message.

Candles can light your way through divination. The art of Ceromancy is a divination technique that involves dropping melted candle wax into cold water. The shapes of the solidified wax within the water are interpreted into symbols that hold meanings. The drippings along the candlestick hold meaning as well as the shape of the burning flames. Try out the exercise below but beware when working with hot candle wax, you can be burned: 1. Take two candles and tie them together with a scarlet ribbon. 2. Either place them upright in a bowl of cold water or hold them at an angle, so the hot wax will be able to drip directly into the water. Now light them. 3. Interpret the solidified wax droplets. There are a few traditional meanings for symbols (see below) but other shapes will be up to your personal intuitive interpretation. Traditional Interpretations of Wax Drops Bird: news is coming Circle or ring: It is time for reconciliation Chain: go ahead wi...

  Hickory Run State Park, PA I traveled to this magical place for the first time when I was young. I visited with my younger brother and my mother. We journeyed down the miles long bare road within Hickory Run State Park in Pennsylvania to see the acres of boulders that remained after a glacier delivered them within this field. We heard it was an eye opening experience. Along the drive to our destination my clairvoyance kicked on. I saw many mystical creatures trotting within the thick forest, flying gracefully along the road, and going about their business. I had never seen so many creatures in one area! You could tell that different sects of creatures lived in their own areas within the woods. The closer we got to our destination-the more mystical our journey became. My mother was beginning to sense the various creatures as well.  We finally arrived to our destination. It was amazing and definitely fit the definition-eye opening! A field covered with thousan...
