DIVINATION FORMS So many!

Fortune telling is an art as old as humanity. From the dim mists of time immemorial come traditions for understanding phenomena as varied as prodigies in the sky, the strange behavior of animals, the rantings of the mad, the strange visions of dreams, and even the odd arrangements of bones in the fire. Everywhere were trials and danger, where a single misstep could destroy you and your family. To know where those missteps were, and to avoid them, was great power. So they sought and found meaning in the small variations of everyday life - everything that was at all unusual or seemed random was a sign from the Gods, warnings to those who could see and were willing to look against mistakes and transgressions. They shone a light into the unknown.
With civilization came no lessening of that fear of the unknown, and no less a need to know which way the gods pointed. Prophesy and divination ruled the Trojan War, to hear Homer tell it, more even than the mortals fighting it. When he heard it prophesied that the first Greek to set foot on Trojan soil would die, Protesilaus promised his wife Laodamia that it wouldn't be him. But still, in his zeal, he bounded from his ship and fulfilled his own doom. And when Agamemnon looked above the battlefield of Troy and saw eagles on his left, he knew Zeus was against him, and so he retreated. Fickle Zeus would change his stance soon enough, a fact Priam's daughter Cassandra knew only too well. But she was cursed twice, first that her prophecy would always be true, and second that no one would ever believe her.
And so Troy fell, in no small measure because the Greeks paid heed and attention to the Gods, and the Trojans only offended them. A thousand years and more later, Roman soldiers still looked to the Eagles of Jove as much as to their Commanders'. And the Oracle at Delphi was still honored, believed, and followed, even by such men as Cicero who might seem least inclined to accept a present and active divinity.
The decline of the Roman empire saw no reduction in the search for divination, it only redirected the energy. Despite all the best efforts of the Inquisition, superstition and mystery still ruled the minds of the common people. And even doctors of the Church in the Middle Ages, like Gregory Bishop of Tours in the 12th century, spent as much time cataloging prodigies in the sky as they did contemplating divinity. The Enlightenment, the Renaissance, the Industrial Age and the Atomic Age have been no more successful at easing the fear of the unknown. The small variations in everyday life may be different now, but people still look to seemingly random events and try to find method under the madness. Even, and perhaps especially, leaders and politicians are attracted to the lure of foresight, and we hear stories of White Houses from Lincoln to Roosevelt to Clinton actively consulting mystics.
Fortune telling has captured the imagination of modern Man for the same reason it captivated ancient Man: anything truly random is the domain of Gods, or fortune or providence, and can be studied to learn the mind of God. Casting Runes, reading tea leaves, or dealing cards are almost completely random, and thus hidden and mysterious processes perfect for the intervention of the supernatural. So, when cards were introduced to mediaeval Europe in the 14th or 15th century, into the dark ages of superstition and magic, they were almost immediately commandeered into the service of divination.

Curious about the future? Do you ask yourself questions like – Will I be rich? Will I be famous? Will I travel around the world? Since ancient times people have foretold the future, and they didn’t need a crystal ball to do it. Here are some fun and easy methods of predicting what is to come.

Cloud Watching
Go outside on a nice cloudy day and pick out a cloud to represent you. This part is easy – it will be your favorite cloud. Watch the cloud carefully. Notice the shape, the color, and the movement.
If the cloud stays big, fat and fluffy, happiness is coming your way. If the cloud turns tall and thin, you’ll have an important decision to make. If the cloud is white, you’ll be popular with your friends. If the cloud is gray, you’ll be helping a friend in need. If the cloud splits in two, you’ll soon be taking a trip. If the cloud is moving South, you’ll have an unexpected visitor. If the cloud is moving North, you’ll soon be getting some money. If the cloud is traveling East, you’ll receive some good news. If the cloud is traveling West, you’ll soon be meeting your sweetheart. If the cloud stays still, you might get rained on.

Yes Or No?
There are many questions about the future that need only a "yes" or "no" answer. Try one of these methods.
Roll a pair of dice. Add the two numbers together. Even numbers mean yes. Odd numbers mean no.
Flip a coin. Heads is yes. Tails is no.
Shuffle a deck of cards. Turn up the top card. A red card means yes. A black card means no.
Tie a key to a piece of string. Hold the string steady so the key hangs very still. Think of your question. The key will automatically move in a circle. Clockwise means yes. Counterclockwise means no.

Scrying
Scrying is just a fancy word for crystal gazing. But you don’t need a crystal ball. Use a glass of water instead. Use a clear glass if possible, and fill it nearly full. Place it on a steady surface that won’t wobble or shake. Take a deep breath and concentrate on the surface of the water. If your eyes blur, that’s okay. Concentrate. Some people see the images in the water, and some see images in their minds. If you don’t see anything at first, keep trying. It may take some practice. Think about the images you see and focus on what they could mean. If you see something that just doesn’t make any sense at all, write it down. You may understand it at a later time. Scrying is one of the most effective ways to develop your psychic power or E.S.P.

Wheel Of Fortune
For this you’ll need a paper plate, a ruler, a pencil, a paper fastener, a hole puncher, and a piece of cardboard or a thin piece of plastic (an empty milk jug works great).
Using the pencil and ruler, draw four lines on the paper plate, dividing it into eight sections. Draw one symbol on each section. 1. Sun 2. Cat 3. Star 4. Heart 5. Coin
6. Snake 7. Moon 8. Bird
Cut a narrow triangle out of the plastic milk jug or cardboard. This is the pointer. Using the hole puncher, make a hole in the middle of the triangle. Then poke a hole in the middle of the paper plate. You may need to use the tip of your pencil to do this. Loosely fasten the triangle to the paper plate with the paper fastener. If it doesn’t spin, you may have to make the holes a little bigger.
Once you’re finished, ask a question and give the pointer a spin.
If it lands on the Sun that means happiness.
The cat means clever ideas.
The star means you’ll achieve fame or success.
The heart means love or affection.
The coin means you’ll be getting some money.
The snake means watch out! An enemy is lurking nearby.
The moon indicates psychic powers.
The bird means you’ll receive some good news.

Awareness of EBE Contact

David Jacobs      I would estimate that %99.99 of all abductees are unaware of what has happened to them. Perhaps many of them know that they have had strange, out of the ordinary experiences like missing time events, Out of Body Experiences, "astral travel," seen ghosts, or even had deceased relatives visit them at the foot of their beds, but these experiences are chalked up to "normality" oftentimes.      They have an available menu of culturally determined explanations of strange occurrences and they pick and chose among them to help explain what has happened to them. Only a tiny fraction of abductees have systematically explored their experiences with me or with Budd Hopkins and are fully aware of the situation that they are involved in. I have handed out a questionnaire geared toward helping me to gauge how many people might have had abductions. I have given it to about 900 students at Temple University over the past few years. Right now my sta...

The Mystery of Rh-Negative Blood Genetic Origin Unknown

Image
  Authenticity and legitimacy are based on factual history and the power of sacred history. What Does the absence of Rhesus monkey factor mean? No solid scientific explanation exists as to how or why Rh- blood came about. It is presumed to be the result of a random mutation. Have you ever felt you were weird or different? It may be due to your DNA ... 85% of humans have the monkey gene (RH+) and 15% do not (RH-) and maybe have an alien gene instead. RH- people are characterized by higher IQs, sensitive vision, lower body temperatures, sensitivity to heat and sunlight, psychic power, ability to stop watches and electrical appliances and having extra vertebrae. This film explores the possibility that we were bred as a slave race for labor, since 97% of our genetic code is disabled, with only 3% left for us to survive. RH negative blood group is from ANNUNAKI heritage Of the human blood types, O is the most common. It is a universal blood type. Blood types are further bro...
