Awesome job to everyone that participated in last weekās Divination Discussion where we focused you you
YAY! Thank you all for participating!
@amy10 used Tell My Tarot to pick a card for themselves and will be practicing with their own tarot deck very soon
@Susurrus took the practice a step further and used their pendulum to help select a tarot card ā and go their daughter involved, too
@Amethyst pulled some cards and had an encounter with the devil who isnāt so scary after all
@janelle tossed some dice and took a stab at reading the numbers
@Rowan pulled the Queen of Cups and had an uncanny encounter involving blonde hair
@praecog29 also had an encounter with the devil that was illuminated by the moon
I loved to see everyoneās involvement here in this discussion Getting into a daily practice, as some have said they will, can be a great way to kickstart your divination education. Reading for yourself is arguably one of the harder things to do because you canāt be fully objective
Ready for the new discussion?
This week is the first week of a brand new month so itās only fitting that we use our divination skills to see what lies ahead for November This is one of my favorite tarot spreads to read because itās simple yet quite effective. Getting insight into a new month can help us see what we need to focus on, what might be influencing us from our past, and what might get in our way of achieving our goals.
Grab your divination method of choice and create a spread (if thatās possible for your method) to help you answer the following questionsā¦
What is my focus for November?
What areas from my past are influencing my decisions this month?
What might get in the way of achieving my goals?
What are the possibilities that might come from November?
If you need to see this visually in a tarot spread, I have one I created on my site that Iāll link here for you.
This challenge is not limited to tarot, so feel free to use whatever divination method you choose!
Letās discuss your findings! Did you have any difficulty interpreting the reading for the questions? How does the reading for each individual question lend itself to the meaning as a whole?
How does it work?
-
Each week, starting on Thursday, Iāll be posting a new hypothetical divination question.
For anyone that doesnāt have a divination method or wants to make it a little more challenging, Iāll have another option available for you. -
During the week, use whichever method you feel comfortable with to answer the question. Draw as many cards, throw as many bones, or pull as many runes as you need. Any spread you think will work is okay to use that goes with the challenge.
-
Write about it here in the comments and share any pictures you may have taken!
-
Discuss your interpretation and the interpretations of others and help out where you can.
-
Ask questions! If youāre not sure how to interpret something, please ask. Many of us have personal experience or other sources that we can share.
Whatās the purpose?
When we are learning a new method of divination or just practicing, it can be hard to get good practice without actually doing anything. Practicing this way with a hypothetical situation gives you an idea of questions that might be asked and it gives you practice in how to respond if youāre reading for someone else.
