In this section, we are going to go over some different tools in divination that you can incorporate into your spiritual readings in practice. We are going to talk about what exactly divination is, we're going to go over some of the different tools that you can use for divination. We're going to talk briefly about the difference between tarot cards or Oracle cards. We're going to talk about crystals as well as essential oils. So before we dive in, because people divination has a lot of power behind it, especially in the spiritual community, so I went ahead and I, I did my own research because I was always curious what other people thought divination was. Now, I got two different definitions and I was very I don't want to say surprised, but very gets taken aback by it.

Because these seem like very old world kind of definitions. And now that it's, you know, the 21st century, I think that divination is kind of took a different term, and it's becoming more mainstream and not as all as scary as maybe these definitions, you know, can make it seem so the first step of ignition of divination that I came across on the internet was the art or gift of prophecy, or the pretense of prophecy by supernatural means. I don't know if I should be laughing or not. But this is very like old world you know, turn of the century kind of meaning for divination. Another divination definition that I came across was the art or practice that seeks to first see or foretell future events or discover hidden knowledge. Usually by the interpretation of omens, or by the aid of supernatural powers.

Now as you can obviously see that these meanings, make divination sound a little freaky, a little scary and might turn you off by them. But I do want to tell you that divination now in 2019, as I, you know, create this course, it is so much different than what you know these definitions are putting out there. divination, my definition, and I feel like this is a nicer, nicer definition to go by when we're talking about divination is the practice of spiritual guidance, healing, and prophecy to promote clarity and wisdom to the seeker. divination is not all about fortune telling. In fact, it's the complete and total opposite. It's actually Actually a form where we can, you know, see a person's past, present and future, as well as see aspects of themselves.

You know, spiritually, personally things that need to be healed. And it really is a beautiful tool to have, especially when you are doing psychic readings and offering you know, some sort of spiritual guidance or guidance because it brings a lot of clarity to the readings, especially if you're not even wanting to do readings for people and you just want to do it yourself. You know, a stack of Oracle cards or a stack of you know, tarot cards. If you pull one a day, it really can bring a lot of clarity and guidance into your life. So that really is kind of like the lowdown on what divination is. And let's talk about different divination tools that you can use and incorporate into your life.

So, as I stated before, there are two row cards there are Oracle cards. There is pendulum dowsing. There are tea leaf readings, there are runes, there's this thing called scrying, which is, you know, the crystal ball. I'm sure that you've heard of it. There's automatic writing, there's Weegee boards. There are much more divination tools that aren't as mainstream as these, but these are really kind of a really great place to start if you're interested in learning more about divination.

Now, we are going to in the next section, I'm going to talk briefly about the difference between Tarot and Oracle cards, because there is a pretty big difference between them and if you are interested in you know, incorporating one or the other within your spiritual practice, it's good to know the difference. So I will see you in the next section.
