Milfoil
Forgive me if this is a real novice question. Though I know a 'very little bit' about the Tarot, I know virtually nothing about divination with anything else. I have been reading back over past posts, sites on the net etc and trying to research the divination techniques and tools of many cultures and it seems to me that a personal set of tools is often the way that many 'seers' work.
With this in mind, I was wondering two things:
1) Where would you suggest I look to study the roots of divination, the requirements of a set of 'tools' (ie the metaphysical ideology of the items/materials, colours, significances etc)
2) If this seems like an interesting project, would anyone else care to join me and see if we can come up, each with our own sort of rune/witchstone/cast objects kit?
I am one of those people who picks up a stone on the beach and treasures it above a diamond; finds a feather and keeps it in a favourite book; makes a connection with a small, knarled bit of wood that I've found - that sort of thing so using such items as a tool for self awareness or divination appeals to me.
I need to learn SO much more before I can really start on this project but it would be nice to know if I'm even on the right track or just wasting my time - what do you all think? (please be gentle, its taken me a week to drum up the courage to post this! )
