| | DIVINATION - LoveToKnow Article on DIVINATION |
 | | Divination of this sort, therefore, may be due to observation and experiment of a rude sort, rather than to the unchecked play of fancy which resulted in heteroscopic divination. | | | Among the Australian blacks, divination is largely employed to discover the cause of death, where it is assumed to be due to magic; in some cases the spirit of the dead man is held to give the information, in others the living magician is the source of the knowledge. | | | On the side of the Stoics it was argued that if divination was a real art, there must be gods who gave it to mankind; against this it was argued that signs of future events may be given without any god. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Divination |
| | From a theological standpoint divination supposes the existence of devils who have great natural powers and who, actuated by jealousy of man and hatred of God, ever seek to lessen his glory and to draw man into perdition, or at least to injure him bodily, mentally, and spiritually. | | | Divination is not, as we have seen, foretelling what comes from necessity or what generally happens, or foretelling what God reveals or what can be discovered by human effort, but it is the usurpation of knowledge of the future, i.e. | | | The various methods of divinig and kinds of diviners are not always clearly distinguished in Scripture, the Hebrew words being differently interpreted and sometimes merely synonyms. |

| | By far one of the most popular methods of divination is Astrology, typically categorized as Vedic Astrology (Jyotish), Western Astrology, and Chinese Astrology, though besides these main three branches many other cultures also have or have had their own forms of Astrology in the past. | | | An unconstrained form of divination, free from any particular medium, and actually a generalization of all types of divination. | | | Other forms of spontaneous divination include reading auras and New Age methods of Feng Shui such as "intuitive" and Fuzion. |

| | Mystic Eye Divination Information! |
| | Often, the diviner must first prove his ability by discovering the client's problem, through a line of patter accompanying the throws--suggesting this, questioning that, leaping from one matter to another until the reactions of the client betray his interest. | | | Where the diviner can produce voices other than his own, the impression is that the gods or spirits are speaking. | | | In nomadic societies today, however, the diviner may still achieve personal authority by passing into a trance before his fellows, trembling and speaking "as if possessed"--that is, as if his own spirit had ceased to inhabit his body and had been replaced by another. |

| | Though runic divination is often described as an 'ancient Viking oracle', we have no evidence that it was ever practised by pre- Christian Germanic cultures. | | | While many authors of popular books on runic divination expanded on the meanings found in the rune poems, some abandoned or ignored the rune poems altogether and invented entirely new meanings for each rune. | | | Runic divination, or rune-casting, tends to employ a 'set of runes'. |

| | Divination: The word divination is based on a Latin word that means "the faculty of foreseeing.” The word comes from the Latin word for "divine power," or "of the gods." This indicates that the true meaning of the word divination is "to make divine." | | | The three occult sciences governing these oracular techniques are astrology (divination by the placement of the stars), cartomancy (divination by the random fall of the tarot or playing cards), and numerology (divination by the numbers concealed in the letters of a name or the digits of a birth date). | | | These are the three most popular methods of divination that have survived into the twentieth-century. |
