I have created a new spread called the Chakra spread which instead of telling you what will happen, it will tell you how you feel base on the chakras. For example, if I want to know how I will fell about the new college I am entering, I would do the spread, look at my heart chakra to see how my feelings will be and so on. *Have to research on the chakra a little more before I actually start the readings.* If I found out that I will feel uncomfortable about the place, I can do an additional three spread to find out the cause of it.
This reading can be great for mediation to see if any of your chakras are disrupted. I think so anyway, won't know until I try it out.
It is done in a straight vertical line spread. The top card being the head chakra and the last being the chakra at the tail of your spinal cord.
If any of you have decided to test out this spread. Give some feedback please! blaugh Also feel free to post your own spread!

If anybody want their fortune told, I will be happy to do it! Remember though that I have only recently started doing readings over the internet and not sure of its total accuracy. What I usually tell the questioner to do is to send some of their energy to my cards so it can have a feel of your aura.

What are some other tools that you guys use? The poll indicates that nobody here does scrying or nobody that voted and the choice "others" is a second majority. Please tell me what type of fortune you do besides tarot.

I also look to nature to find out what's going to happen. It's really easy to dismiss animal sightings as nothing. Personally, I have noticed that certain animals make themselves known to me whenever I've had a decision I need to verify. If I have a question as to the right path I should take, I will see a red-tailed hawk after the decision has been made. For example, after I decided to end a 6 year relationship, I saw a red-tailed hawk. When I decided to go back to school to become a librarian, I saw a red-tailed hawk. Note: These sightings of this particular bird took place at a time of the year when hawks were not prevalent in the area.

I scry with fire, mirrors, my mind...dreams...
I also get premonitions in the form of feelings, "deja vu", "daydreams" [visions], and visions in my dreams.
*thinks* Nothing else I can think of off the top of my head...though more might pop in later.

WinggemLNightTigress How do you scry or what do you do to prepare for it? Do you actually see an image on the scrying tool you are using? Well, I don't know how it works for other people, but for myself...I just focus on what I want or need to see, and let it play itself out. If the scene or imagery isn't forced and just comes, then I know it's real and something I need to listen to. If it feels too forced or fake, I know that's all it was, and I keep searching for something real.
If I scry with fire, I just focus on the flame and let it show me what it wants. If I need something specific, I ask it to guide me to what I need, but I never force something from fire...the images for this are almost always played either in my mind or just above the flame.
With a mirror, I usually just "zone out" and let whatever wants to play out, play out. The images from that are usually on the mirror.
For dream scrying, I lucid dream, with a specific thing in mind. If I need to find someone or something, then I focus as strongly as I can on that person or item, and let the dream play out. I focus on what I need from it, and let the other details slip past - to be remembered later, if needed. This scrying is all done in my mind and is seen in a very strong dream.
Before I do any of it, though, I seal my mind against anyone interrupting or intruding, and I set barriers around the tool, my room, my mind, and myself.

Right. I have a minor problem. My dog decided my tarot cards were a tasty treat - I don't know how they got there, but they were laying on the bed, well within the puppy's reach. She threw them around, grabbed on card, and ran off with it. She soft mouthed all but the one card she carried away - my brother returned it to me, and there are several teeth marks in it now. I quickly and profusely apologized to my cards for allowing my dog near them like that, and they said that they didn't mind at all. Which struck me as odd since if I let the wrong person within range of them, they get very testy with me.
The card she left marks on was the Page of Wands. I told my boyfriend about it and his immediate response was, "What does the card mean?"
According to the book, the card's meaning is, "A message that gives hope comes at a crucial time. You receive important news that relates to your job or field of studies. Some phase of your job or social activities brings you into contact with foreign countries or people."
Which, doesn't make sense with my life, unless it implies the fact that today I found out my insane sister wants to enter into studying psychology. My chosen career is psychiatrist, to help people like her. She claims it's to learn how to better understand herself, but all my sister does is manipulate and hurt people. She has no compassion and no feelings.
Though, even that interpretation doesn't entirely make sense - the card feels more about love and happiness, then it does the terror that my sister brings to my mind, whenever I think of her. The fact she wants to enter into the same field of study as me, terrifies me because I worry about all the people she could destroy with something like that. Even though that news today about my sister reminded me of the tarot card, which means it does have something to do with the card since my cards never remind me of just one of them unless it has something to do with something that happened, it still doesn't feel like that was it.
So, I was wondering if you guys have any ideas on this one?

I think maybe your sister will benefit from studying pyschology. She'll find out why she hurts and manipulates others and may change her way. That is probably what the "hope" the card is talking about. Hope that your sister will change her ways by going into the same field you are interested in.

WinggemLNightTigress I think maybe your sister will benefit from studying pyschology. She'll find out why she hurts and manipulates others and may change her way. That is probably what the "hope" the card is talking about. Hope that your sister will change her ways by going into the same field you are interested in. ...She KNOWS why she manipulates and hurts people. BECAUSE SHE LIKES IT. It gives her a thrill, a rush of adrenaline. She's MENTALLY ILL and they won't treat it because they're SCARED OF HOW MUCH SHE ENJOYS THAT ILLNESS. After knowing my sister her entire life and knowing her little "games" of cat and mouse that ALWAYS end up with someone being severely hurt or destroyed in some way, I can safely say my sister most definetely does NOT want to learn psychology to understand her illnesses.
She's followed me into everything I have ever done in my life. She has tried to steal my identity, tried to kill me numerous times, has manipulated the psychiatrists, the law, the police officers, school administrators. She actively pursued the end of my Mother's marriage and the end of her relationship to her boyfriend. She actively pursued the destruction of my Mother's hope, dreams, and life - not to mention that of my two brothers and myself.
Anything I express an interest in, she obsesses over it. It doesn't matter what the interest is in or how big my interest is, she completely 100% obsesses over it.
She doesn't want to enter psychology to understand herself. She's entering into it in order to better manipulate and destroy everyone around her. As much as it hurts to say this, my sister is evil. Her group mother, even her friends, say there is something terribly evil about her. Without compassion and without emotion, my sister can never pursue anything and have something "good" in mind. Everyone is afraid of her and she's totally oblivious to it! The only time she notices is if she pauses long enough to manipulate that fear to her advantage.
She is an obsessive compulsive, manipulative, schizophrenic, bipolar, manic depressive, ADHD teenage girl with an IQ of 150 and a photographic memory [and who knows what else!]. She has no feelings and no emotions. All she wants is to destroy anyone who doesn't let her do what she wants. While that is just the mental illness talking - that is all my sister is now. The mental illness. She refuses treatment and allows the illnesses to take over, because she enjoys seeing others suffer. She used to cut her arm, just to feel that pain.
There is no hope left for my sister, until she stops enjoying her mental illness and inflicting pain upon other people.

*pokes chels* Your going to get us off topic.. But yeah, your sister is one scary a** chic. Maybe the hope was for your own career or it may be more linked to the puppy. That may have been her way of speaking to you.
And I also scry using water. I use streams and waterfalls right now, but I've been told a round, solid blue bowl works, too. I just cant find one of those that doesnt coast a ton.... Basically, I stare at the water and zone. It doesnt tell the future, so to speak, but it helps me sort through whats going on and such. I follow my feelings during such a thing.
I also have learned to listen to my gut on things. I know when I've forgotten something, not done homework, if something bads going to happen, etc, quite often by a certain feeling.

Chels, your sister sounds like she might be the next Evil Genuise bent over on conquering the world...Now that I think about it, psychology can be use to manipulate people in some way, that thought has cross through my mine a few times during my AP Psychology class. I know why people play hard-to-get now, it's the reward of gaining attention or something from the other person each time the relationship progresses. Can't really explain it that well, I'll flip through my notes if anybody is interested in this topic. xp
Hate to be negative, but what if the destruction of your cards represent the downfall of you? The cards can represent every aspect of you and the card that you dog carry away indicates your sister is going to accomplish this by manipulating you mind using psychology? sweatdrop

Silver Mist: You can also just use a regular bowl and place black rocks at the bottom of it, fill it with water and its like another version of a scrying mirror. Although maybe the black rocks will cost as much as the blue bowl. xp .
I have gut feelings if I'm missing something while I leave the house for school, too. The problem is I don't know what I am missing sweatdrop .

I think I want to start a Divination class in this Guild where I will do research on the different types of divination and present them to the class. It will be a learning experience for me and everybody else here! blaugh
I was going to start posting a list of different types of divination, but it is too wide a range and so much to explain here!!
