At The Heart Of Divination

Divination is also referred to as fortune telling. Divination uses aspects of the supernatural to predict the future or give insight. There are many different forms of divination. Divination usually involves a ritual or other formal routine. This could involve the lighting of candles, chanting of incantations or burning of incense. Divination is a way to connect with the other side, which could be those who have passed away, spirits or holy beings.

Divination is a highly criticized practice. There are many people who believe that divination cannot be proven as real. They believe that since divination usually involves one person connecting with the other side that the person is simply scamming or faking the connection. Many skeptics believe that divination is merely tapping into the sub-conscious mind and not communicating with the other side at all. Still others believe that there is no connection at all and the person doing the divination is just saying whatever they believe people want to hear. Despite numerous attempts to prove critics wrong, there is still skeptics out there who will never believe in the supernatural abilities of those who practice divination.

Some of the more popular and best known forms of divination include the following:
Astrology- Using the positions of the planets, sun and moon in correspondence with time, date, location and the Zodiac to give insight into one's life and future.
Tarot- The use of a 78 card deck that is laid out into spreads or patterns then read to look into one's situation.

Palmistry- Reading the lines on ones hand to interpret their life path.
Rune Casting- The use of runes that are cast upon the ground or a cloth to tell a persons situation.

Channeling- Connecting with the other side, spirits, and delivering their messages.
Psychic/Intuition- Connecting with a spirit or other celestial being to deliver messages, can be used with other forms of divination.

Divination may be something that a person is born able to do. For others it is something to be learned. It is widely thought that every person has the ability to tap into the supernatural. It just takes time for some to learn how to do it.
Divination has been used for centuries. It is often looked at as evil or as something that is only done by those who do not believe in God. This is not true. Many religious activities often include divination style practices. Anything that brings a connection between a person and a celestial being, be it God, a Saint, an angel, is a form of divination.

Most divination is done in a proper setting. The area used for divination is only used for that purpose. Nothing else is done in that area. Many times there are alters or other things to honor the spirits that may be present. It is done in a manner that shows respect to those beings that are coming to help or send messages. For people that practice divination it is a very serious ritual.

Divination is something that requires great patience and dedication. It may take a person a long time in order to connect to a spirit and when they do it can tae even longer to understand the messages they may be sending. It is a process that should be done with the knowledge of how to do it properly. Many times people expect to see amazing things, like lights flickering, the person performing the divination to fall into a trance or something else spectacular. This is usually not how it happens, though. It is usually a rather peaceful process that happens almost naturally.

Real Reason You Have Fear

I've been thinking about this question a lot lately: "What's the REAL reason we have fear?" Why? Because I've been having more fear than usual. Why? I'm doing things that are new in my business and thus, I'm in unfamiliar territory. You've probably heard these explanations for the root of your fear more than once:
* You're out of your comfort zone
* You need more information
* You fear the unknown
* You lack courage
* You lack focus
* You lack self-confidence

And that's just a short list! While all of those reasons are potentially valid depending upon the situation, I'd like to dig a little deeper, using your fingerprints as our map through fear. Your fingerprints reveal several aspects of your soul, and one of those aspects is your Life Lesson. Your Life Lesson is your blind spot, your gremlin, your nemesis, your "negative tapes." Your Life Lesson could be one or a combination of these issues:
* panic caused by a life out of balance (everything is an *emergency*)
* anxiety making decisions
* not expressing your authentic feelings due to the perceived expectations of others
* sacrificing yourself into burdensome obligation
* lack of clarity about your definition of success
* challenges owning your power in the world
* challenges managing your energy, time and money
* challenges expressing your creativity
* challenges speaking up for your self
* challenges with your family and community (on a life scale)
* challenges finding your passion and dealing with victimization, shame and numbness
* challenges finding your niche due to guilt ("If I succeed, it takes away from others." THAT kind of guilt)
* paralyzing fear of rejection
* trust/surrender/intimacy issues with anything: other people, food, money, etc.

If you look at the above list, are there one or two Life Lessons that really stand out for you? My Life Lesson is "not expressing my authentic feelings due to the perceived expectations of others." Sooooo... now I'm doing new and different things with my business - and what do I fear? You guessed it! I fear what other people think and feel about me. (I recognize I have no control over what others think and feel about me. But it doesn't make my lesson any less painful for the knowing.) If you follow any fear to its natural conclusion, the fear is a painful outcome - humiliation, shame, excommunication, torture, fire, starvation, annihilation, etc. You think I'm kidding? I'm not kidding. THAT'S why we get so afraid about making that important phone call, closing the sale, standing up to our mother or father or our children.

Our Life Lesson is the surface issue that trips us up - it acts, amazingly enough, as a PROTECTION mechanism. What lies below that surface issue is our fear of not surviving. Fear lives in our mid-brain or *reptile brain* and it runs on instinct. All our crocodile brain knows is that if you step into the "Life Lesson Zone," something scary is going to happen.

And then the drama begins. You get distracted, you procrastinate, you have no money, you have no time... The drama is the crocodile brain's way of keeping you from FACING your Life Lesson and hence, learning it. By not facing the Life Lesson, our crocodile brain achieves ITS goal of keeping us stuck. When we learn our Life Lesson, we actualize our Life Purpose.

Chirognomy Fortune Teller

hirognomy is a branch of palmistry where we individually can predict some basic things about ourselves and about our nature. Chirognomy deals with the shape, size and other things related to our hands and fingers.

Masculine and Feminine Hands:
It is very much possible to assess the proportion of male and female within a human being from their hands. When we are considering the whole hand, the fact that the hand looks delicate, does not necessarily mean that the person is feminine. The same with the males - a strong, sturdy hand does not indicate a masculine property.
Generally speaking, the round shaping on the hands and fingers suggests female attributes, whereas square shaping on the hand and fingers suggests masculine attributes.

Shape of Hands:
There are several basic types of hand shapes: the square, the conical, the knotty, the pointed and the spatulate.
The square hand enjoys order and regularity, while the conical or artistic hand has a strong tendency towards sensuality and aesthetics.
The knotty or philosophical hand belongs to the analyst and meditator whereas the pointed hand is the least practical, revealing a tendency towards the abstract and generally indicating that such people should never be in a position of authority.
Finally, the spatulate hand's main characteristics are action, movement and energy.

Color of the Palm:
a.Very pale skin on palm: selfish and could suffer from bad circulation.
b.Yellow skin on palm: morbid and could suffer from bilious attacks.
c.Pink and mottled skin on palm: cheerful disposition and well balanced.
d.Red skin on palm: quick-tempered.
e.Very red skin on palm: violent disposition, should watch out for Blood Pressure.
f.Silky skin on palm: tendency to gout and rheumatism.
g.Dry skin on palm: runs temperature easily, prone to fevers.
h.Damp skin on palm: ill-balanced moral nature, prone to liver and kidney disorders.

Hair on the Hand:
a.Hairy hands on women: mannish and cruel.
b.Hairy hands on a man: energetic and sexy.
c.Very hairy hands on a man: violent nature.
d.No hair on a man's hand: effeminate and passive.
e.Light-colored hair on hands: passionless.
f.Dark hair on hands: passionate disposition.
g.Reddish-colored hair on hands: excitable nature.

Hand according to sign:
Air Sign: Aquarius/ Gemini/ Libra - Round hands with conic type fingers.
Fire Sign: Aries/ Leo/ Sagittarius - Long hands with short thick fingers.
Water Sign: Pisces/ Cancer/ Scorpio - Long hands with long thin fingers.
Earth Sign: Taurus/ Virgo/ Capricorn - Square hands with square fingers.

The left hand is used to determine events and character traits and is called The Hand of Destiny. It is hand of hereditary factors. The other hand shows how your life develops and what you make of your potential.

Number for Future

There are so many people who always remain curious to know about their future. To cater the needs of these people, there are so many specialists available who offer specific readings pertaining to their future. There are different things and arts that can help people to unveil many things. There is Palmistry, there is Tarot card reading, there is astrology and there is numerology.

Numerology is different in a sense that it may not give you some discreet ideas about the things which will be happening in future, but, it can tell you some tips and tricks to make your present even better.

Numerology is considered to be metaphysical science and it can be related to astrology, in one way or the other. But, there are few certain distinctions between the two things. Numerology is basically a method or a thought pattern that have been designed by different people to find out its effects on living objects. Numerology is around for many years and it enjoys a really long history. However, today, you can find different forms of numerology which exist in toady's world.

There are few new forms and few of them have really originated from the older ones. Also, there are different theories and methods which can change according to culture of a country. It is one of the reasons that you can see some variations in methods and theories in numerology in Japan or India or other European countries. However, most of its forms describe the relationship between digits and their vibrations that can, then, be related to living objects to get to some conclusions about specific things.

There is an oldest form of numerology which is known as Chaldean numerology or simply "Mystic Numerology". In this system, the basic idea will remain the same, but, allocation of digits will differ a bit. Here, letters are assigned different digits according to their predetermined vibrations which complicate things a little. It is because of these complications that it takes time to learn this system of numerology. However, there are some other systems which are easier than this.

When you will go to west, you will find numerology in different forms as people their try to compare different systems with their own. However, Pythagorean Numerology is one of those types which are really popular in western countries.

In this numerology system, you will again create the relationship between things in accordance with digits. Precisely, this numerology system diverts its attention toward the relationship between name and date of birth and assist in making some solid conclusions about the compatibility of both of things and about their effects on people.

Also, this system assigned different numbers to different letters and then studies the relationship. People are really interested in this numerology system as this system is relatively easier to learn. However, it can, still, take some time to master the art of numerology to predict the right things. Pythagorean numerology, however, is center of attractions in western country which is the creation of a Greek philosopher named as Pythagoras.

All in all, it can easily be deduced that there are several numerological systems that people in different countries practice. However, this is one of those arts that fast becoming more and more popular all over the world.
