Full Moon Magick

Well, my friends, the full moon is upon us again!

A wonderful time for healing, prophecy and divination, any magick to bring something to you or a goal to fruition.    I personally use this time to brush up on my divinations skills.  I'm still learning to use Tarot, so that will be my endeavor tonight!

If you want to learn a new divination skill, now is the time to do it!  A great resource for learning Tarot can be found at the About.com Pagan/Wiccan pages.  It's great fun learning to use a pendulum, I've found that each pendulum I've owned speaks a different "language".  My current pendulum circles clockwise for yes and counter clockwise for no, with a bunch of extra squiggles for not now or soon.  Asking a series of questions you already know the answer to will help you figure out how your pendulum is speaking to you.

There is a whole range of different types of divination!  And there are some strange ones out there, let me tell you.

Axiomancy is divination through the observation of how an axe/hatchet quivers or points when driven into wood.

Cephalomancy uses the skulls or heads of donkeys and goats for divination.

Oinomancy uses wine for divination...I could handle a little more of that!

Hippomancy is divination using the neighing and stamping of horses.

Stolisomancy considers omens seen in the way people dress.

A whole huge list of common and uncommon forms of divination can be found here.  I've always like blibliomancy; divination by book!

What, if any, forms of divination do you use?  What will you do with your full moon?

Goddess Bless,

Stacy

  3. I'm planning a little tarot, but I'd also like to work on some energy and healing for myself. This phase of pregnancy is just kicking my butt.
