Ok--I'll do a set of divinations for all'y'all. Unfortunately, the "metadivination" method that gets the words that suddenly show up everywhere at once coincidentally takes a very long time to do, as do most of the other "big" techniques, so the energy behind these may be down a notch or two.
If Rex, or any of the rest of you, would like to post interpretations, it would be much appreciated. Also, if anyone would care to send a "success in business" spell or sigil in my direction for the coming month, it would also be appreciated...
So:
Hunter:
The numbers: 6, 16, 32
The Runes: Laguz, Uruz, and Eoh.

Stichomancy (divination by books), the passage: I knew three young men who walked together daily for some two months in a solemn and beautiful forest and in cloudless summer weather; daily they talked with unabated zest, and yet scarce wandered that whole time beyond two subjects - theology and love. And perhaps neither a court of love nor an assembly of divines would have granted their premisses or welcomed their conclusions.
-Robert Louis Stevenson, Memories and Portraits
Kooky:
i ching: 36. Ming I , changing to 15. Khien

Stichomancy: When we left Macon, it was our intention to take a steamer at Charleston through to Phila- delphia; but on arriving there we found that the vessels did not run during the winter
--William and Ellen Craft
(I did a second reading for you, but forgot to copy it down. It also had to do with a group of people travelling in winter, interestingly enough.)
Mordant:
The image: A grasshopper jumping from a young man's hands, upraised, palms up before him.
The tarot: The page of wands
The reading: Socrates is afraid that the youth Cleinias may be discouraged at these repeated overthrows. He therefore explains to him the nature of the process to which he is being subjected. The two strangers are not serious; there are jests at the mysteries which precede the enthronement, and he is being initiated into the mysteries of the sophistical ritual. This is all a sort of horse-play, which is now ended. The exhortation to virtue will follow
--Plato Euthydemus
The Rune: Man
Grant:
The numbers: 2, 84, 834
The Rune: (blank, or Destiny rune)

Stichomancy: 'Guineas?' said Mr. Podgers at last, in a low voice.
'Certainly. I will send you a cheque to-morrow. What is your club?'
'I have no club. That is to say, not just at present. My address is -, but allow me to give you my card'; and producing a bit of gilt-edge pasteboard from his waistcoat pocket, Mr. Podgers handed it, with a low bow, to Lord Arthur, who read on it,
--Oscar Wilde Lord Arthur Savile's Crime
Rex:
The image: A lion, roaring like a trumpet.
Stichomancy: Dipping long strokes and strong, the girl, in concert with the man, suddenly whirled the tiny craft about against the current and brought it gently to the shore. Another instant and she stood at the top of the bank, heaving up by rope, hand under hand, a quarter of fresh-killed moose. Then the man followed her, and together, with a swift rush, they drew up the canoe. The dogs were in a whining mass about them, and as the girl stooped among them caressingly, the man's gaze fell upon Mrs. Sayther, who had arisen. He looked, brushed his eyes unconsciously as though his sight were deceiving him, and looked again. --Jack London Tales of the Klondike
The Runes: Ken (reversed), Tyr, Inguz
The Tarot: King of Cups (reversed) |
, can anyone give me their take on interpreting those results? I can do some searches on the Net about the runes and numbers, but I'd be curious to see how others would interpet that reading if the time and inclination are present.
