We have the ability to use many tools to assist with our own ascension. Humans have a long history of using Divination in order to speak with the universe. Originally used by the wealthy and powerful, divination practices are seen the world over and have become somewhat mainstream at this point. Divination ranges from tarot to runes to palmistry. There are so many different types of divination tools it is hard to list them all.
One thing they all have in common is that they use some sort of outside medium for the diviner to focus on. This can range from cards, dice, runes, a crystal ball and so forth. There are generally three ways in which to divine using these mediums; natural phenomena (such as water, bird flight patterns, cloud formations, etc.), artificial phenomena (runes, cards, numerology, etc.) or direct communication (dreams, visions, trances, etc.). All of these give the diviner an insight as to what is going on regarding the seekers question and the answers are then interpreted based on intuition.
The more a diviner uses and trusts their own intuition the more information they may be able to discern during a reading. Many diviners practice their readings with family and friends before moving on, some offer free services to assist both themselves and others. The most basic rule for divination is to go with your gut; many seekers do not realize that they have the power to change outcomes and that few things are set in stone along ones path, especially in these times. While a diviner may give you extremely accurate information this may not be the path you choose and may never encounter what they have brought to you. They haven’t given you anything wrong, you have just collapsed that particular timeline. So for a seeker the best thing they can do for themselves is the same as the diviner: trust your own intuition with any information you receive.
I personally "pull cards" once a month and on special occassions to provide an energy snapshot of the time. Some may resonate with you, while others do not. Use these readings as a way to test your own feelings and knowing about your own life. These readings are a good place to get yourself thinking about what path you are on and what you can do about it.
