Divination  

Well I'm good at mind reading with my family but not really with strangers. Yeah I half suspected that one was your favorite :)

of course, reading a person's body language can tell you if they are approachable or not. It is amazing that people use this, without thinking sometimes.
and of course, ESP isn't 100% accurate. pretty darn close though!

I don't think anything is completly accurate. Of course body language can play a huge part in it. It's part of the communication tools that are available and can some times be so subconscious that can really be a good source of information for one with a good eye.

me myself i can read people i know as well as strangers, I wouldnt call it esp though, I am just a very spiritual person. Anybody that is very spiritural would be able to tell what i am. I dont tell everybody because people would not understand but I have an aunt who was well known and she was a spiritualist, she even had her own business. She helped alot of people. I believe that I inherited her gifts.

The other deck I have is called The Elemental Deck. It's ok but I much prefer my Lord of the Rings one as well. I'd love the Arthurian Legend Deck I've seen. I've tried doing the Celtic Cross a few times but I need more practice with it.

It sure is. I'm going to have to do some readings then. See what I can learn.

Mind reading isn't really a form of divination but it can aid you in doing it with other tools especially when you are reading for someone other then yourself.


I agree though. If they start with the mumbo jumbo they have been watching way too many late night horror movies and have no real clue as to how do to a reading.

I stopped doing reading for people in high school. I had one of my many moments of premonition during a reading with a group of girls friends, my best friends grandparents where the people in my vision and they where badly hurt in an accident. 2 weeks later the accident happened and my best friend blamed me for a long time. I only read for myself now to avoid this from happening again. During a reading when I was 15 I saw the 9/11 attacks and the horrific after math. 9 years later it happened and I couldn't believe I was seeing it for real. My mother-in-law freaked out when I told her about it, so now I keep most of that stuff to myself. My visions are given to me and don't share them for fear that people will take them badly. They don't always happen while I am reading and sometimes they come while I am doing mundane things like chopping veggies for dinner, but like all of us I am most open and in tune during a reading and they just float in.

I understand why you do keep them to yourself. Often that type of vision, feeling or what have you cannot be changed and it can be harder to deal with. At least that has been my experience. That even though we know it will happen there is nothing much we can do about it.

Some Ouija boards can be very beautiful I agree. You should frame it then and enjoy it's beauty if it's not going to be used.

That sounds interesting with the crystal and the string. I've heard of similar but never tried my hand at it. It is something I'd like to learn more about.

I haven't heard of those but I'll have to check them out. They sound neat and anything Celtic I usually like. I know what you mean though about prefering one over another. Just some we seem to tune into better.

I've never tried my hand at tea leaf reading. I think it would be interesting to try and to learn to do. Perhaps one day I'll have the chance.

That is great. I have had a few experiences with seeing auras but it's not something of an every day thing for me. It's not something that happens but I also don't try to either so that might be why. I can understand not doing readings for others. It can cause problems.

Nothing wrong with using non-traditional or using other cards in general. Whatever works for you is important.

I would love to have the King Arthur set. The one I saw of it was beautiful. There are a variety of spreads out there. It takes a while to find one that works best for you.

Yeah...the problem is I don't anyone to practice on to really learn the cards, the spreads, and be able to trust my instincts. My niece is coming over tomorrow night though so I may have to break them out with her.

I know what you mean. There are times when they can be very clear and really stand out. However other times I've done readings and they are muddled. I'm not sure if it's because of me, the other person, or just the cards in general.
