Divination

Divination isn’t simple fortune telling, but about spiritual awareness. A way of connecting with the subconscious or spirit realm, and noticing existing patterns.

Witches have practiced divination for centuries using tools like fire, water, bones, smoke, or cards to interpret subtle signs.

Each method asks the same question: what truth is waiting to be seen?

Divination has always been part curiosity, part communion. It teaches patience and attention, inviting witches to slow down and read between the lines of daily life. Every symbol, every movement, every flicker of smoke holds meaning. The unknown becomes a mirror, reflecting what the spirit already knows deep inside.

From casting runes to watching smoke rise, each method reveals a language of its own. Learning divination reminds us that magic is not in the tools but in the act of being present and aware.
