The 12 Houses

The 1st House Your personal identity, physical body, vitality, independence, whether and how you express personal initiative to establish personal identity. Don’t become egotistical!

The 2nd House Your values, possessions, assets = physical and intellectual ones, skills, how you earn money and what the material plane means to you, whether and how you create a solid and secure base in your life, how you manifest and use your resources for your own and for the greater benefit. Don’t get stuck!

The 3rd House How you experience intellectual stimuli through communicating, news, ideas, socializing. How you learn, your adaptability, versatility, variety, and interchange with others. Your contact with your immediate environment. Don’t get scattered!

The 4th House Your home base, place of privacy, your family and cultural roots and inheritance, your deeply rooted emotions and patterns that (seem to?) give you security, how you feel safe and protected to nurture yourself and others, your place where to find psychological integration. Get out of your comfort zone!

The 5th House Your way of creative self-expression through play, fun, taking risks, hobbies, entertainment, romance. Your Children with their spontaneity are also ruled by this house, as well as your ‘inner child’. Is life a party?

The 6th House How you relate to integrating yourself in your job/work environment, your approach towards service and daily routines, how you take care of your health, attend to details at work and in your body, how you put your physical, emotional and mental tools to use. Every master starts as an apprentice…

The 7th House The DC as the cusp of the 7th house is furthest away from the AC-the Self and therefore associated with significant others. What (private and business) one-on-one relationships mean in your life, how you see your partners, and what you project onto them (=what you perceive as ‘not-me’). How you relate to your ‘favorite’ enemies and competitors. Ideally: Compatibility, win/win. Don’t just be part of a couple…

The 8th House How inner growth happens in your life through deeply transformational processes and crises, especially with people close to you; the death-rebirth experience on all levels; sexuality, death; contributing of your resources in marriage and intimate relationship; the power to make changes in your life, how you use power. Phoenix out of the ashes!

The 9th House What gives your life meaning: Philosophy, religion, your ideals and beliefs; how you gain perspective through travel to foreign countries, how you expand your horizon through study, higher education, your social adeptness. Don’t take off, though!

The 10th House Your life purpose, career, profession and mastery; how you set goals and go after them; achievements, recognition and reputation; how you relate to and play a part in society, authorities and role models in your life. What is true success?

The 11th House Your group involvement, projects and common objectives with like-minded spirits, friendships, clubs, social activities outside of family and career, how you contribute and synchronize to a chosen ideal or vision. Do you want to be a member of a club that has you as a member?

The 12th House Your very private encounter with the universe and your spiritual nature, your soul’s development, how you experience oneness, boundlessness and interrelatedness of everything in your life, your retreat (escape?) from the busy world, transcendence, connection with the ‘Beyond’, loving and compassionate service; sensitivity to subtle energies, the mystical and the psychic side of you, hidden and mysterious forces in you, the capacity to transmute unhealthy patterns.

Hold the dice cupped in your hand while focusing on a question.  Lightly shake the dice and allow them to fall into the circle.  Any dice that fall outside the circle are discarded.  If all the dice fall outside the circle, then no fortune can be read on that day.  Add up the numbers on the top face of the dice in the circle and consult the list below for the meaning.

 

01. A new arrival, a baby or an unexpected sum of money.

02. A road that forks two ways, but the longest is best.

Scrying

 

There are a variety of scrying methods.  I have listed methods I know by their supposed element. If you know of others, don’t shoot me, I am just going by what I have heard. If this doesn't work the first time, don't be angry. Scrying is probably the hardest and least documented method of divination. Its also the most common among the folk religions of the world

Earth

Eggs                                  Fill a clear, tall glass with water. Using a pen, prick a hole in the egg's smaller end. Hold the egg over the water until the white begins to drip into the glass. Ask a question, if any. Watch as the egg whites diffuse and create shapes as they hang and float in the water. From these shapes and through the use of symbolic thought, determine the future.

Mirror                                Look into a mirror made of the minerals of the earth that is placed on the ground outside, in the forest. After meditation you should come away with something.

Leaves                              Take a earthenware plate and place it on the ground. Gather 50 - 100 leaves of various shapes and sizes. Cast the leaves across the plate. The shapes the leaves make tell the story. The closer to the outside edge of the plate the sooner it is likely to happen.

Tree                                   Walk through the forest with another who is the querent. Ask them to pick a tree. Use the twists and turns of the leaves and branches to reveal the answer to the other person. This is not a divination to do alone.

Water

Pan                                    At night light to candles and set one on each side of a pan with a black inside. Look into the water and then through the water. The images will imprint themselves on your mind.

River                                 Watch the way the water in a river flows for shifts of time.

Ripples                              Through a stone in the water watch the ripple patterns to give meaning.

Floating                             In addition to scrying, water has been used in a number of ways to determine the future. One of these has been in use since ancient Greek times. Take a specific object- a slice of bread, a leaf or some other light object to a lake or spring. While asking a yes or no question, throw the object into the water. If it sinks, the answer is yes; if it continues to float, or sinks but rises and is washed up on the bank, the answer is no.

Fire

Fire Gazing                      This ancient technique can produce surprising results. Sit before a roaring fire. Ask your question. Gaze into the flames while the fire burns down. Within the flames, or in the sparkling, glowing coals below them, images of the future may appear. Interpret them with symbolic thought. It's best to limit gazing time to about five minutes, but there's no need to check your watch. Allow the images to come to you for an appropriate time.

Burnings   Write a question concerning the future on a small piece of paper. Place it face down on a flat, heat-proof surface. Light one corner of the paper with a match. If the entire paper burns, the answer is yes. If only part of the paper is destroyed, the answer is no.

Smoke                               One method is known as "smoke reading." Light a candle. Pass a plain white card through the flames three times while asking a question. (do this quickly to avoid setting the card on fire.) Interpret the resulting carbon deposits left on the underside of the card with symbolic thought. There are many older techniques. For example, build a fire outside in a safe place while asking a yes/no question. Watch the smoke. If it rises straight and lightly into the air, a positive answer has been received. If, however, it hangs heavily around the fire, the reverse is true.

Ashes                                 Collect ashes from dead fires or the fire place. Outside, in a place where the wind usually blows at some time, scatter the ashes to a good depth in a rectagular shape on the ground. While asking your question regarding the future, use a finger to write the word yes in the ashes to the right and no to the left. Leave them undisturbed overnight. In the morning, study the ashes. If both words are clearly legible, no answer is possible at this time. If one has been erased by animal tracks, the wind or by some other force, the remaining word reveals the answer to your question. If both words are gone, again, no answer has been given.

Air

Pendulum                         Place a pendulum over an image of an X. Ask a questions. Clockwise motion after the question is asked means yes. Counter clockwise motion means no.

Cards                                 Scatter a deck of cards across the room. As they land, read the cards. The closer the cards to the querent, the more relevant.

Star Gazing                      Go outside at night when the sky is clear. Ask a question. If the stars seem to glow brighter, or if a shooting star races across the sky, the answer is yes. If nothing seems to occur after fifteen minutes, or if clouds blot out the stars, the response in no.

Star Wishing                    Wishing on a star is a popular practice. Outside, look at at one particular star for several minutes. State your hoped-for future. Close your eyes for three seconds. If, upon opening your eyes, they immediately fix on the same star, your future is as you wished. If you can't find it at once, your future will be different.

The Moon                         On the new moon (that is, when the moon first appears in the sky as a thin crescent), go outside and point a dull-bladed knife (preferably silver) at the moon. Say the following words: New moon, true morrow, be true now to me that I ere the morrow my true love may see. Place the knife beneath your pillow. Speak to no one as you prepare for bed. Remember your dreams.

Lightning                           Go outside on a night that will probably bring a storm. Stand facing in any direction and wait for the first flash. If it appears to the left, it's a sign of trouble and heartaches. If, however, it appears on the right, this portends a happy, prosperous future. If it's directly overhead, a mixture of both. (This is also a sign that it might be best to take cover.) If you've asked a specific question it's answered in the same manner: to the left, no; to the right, yes. If it appears directly overhead, no answer can be given at this time.
