Divination, Crystalomancy<br />

The act of divining from transparent bodies<br />

such as a crystal ball, polished quartz, precious<br />

stones (especially a beryl), or any transparent object.<br />

By gazing fixedly and deeply into a polished<br />

crystal ball the seer attempts to see what will happen<br />

in the future or somewhere else, and to seek<br />

answers to questions.<br />

Divination, Gyromancy<br />

This act of divining is accomplished by walking<br />

around a circle of letters until the diviner is too<br />

dizzy to continue or falls. The letters against which<br />

the diviner stumbles or the direction of the fall are<br />

supposed to spell out a prophetic message.<br />

Divination, Hydromancy<br />

The act of divining from water is<br />

hydromancy. One method is that the diviner uses a<br />

basin full of water, commands it to be activated by<br />

spirits, and it vibrates to a point where it boils and<br />

gives off meaningful sounds. Other techniques are<br />

to drop pebbles into bowls filled with water, fountains,<br />

or other bodies of water. The diviner reads<br />

from the color of the water on its surface as the<br />

water ripples.<br />
