Divination is one of the most advanced forms of magic known to wizards and it is also one of the hardest.



Chapter 1 ~ Tea Leaves

Tea leaves is a very simple form of Divination. To start off , grab a friend and make a cup of tea for both of you. Drink the tea leaving only a little trickle at the bottom of the cup. Swish the cup around five times. Then turn it upside-down on your hand to remove the left-over tea. At the bottom there should be the tea leaves and you should begin to see shapes. Switch cups with your friend and read each others. You should never read your own. It has bad luck. Most shapes have meanings such as a large dog can represent death and a clover type shape can represent good or bad luck depending on how you read it. Tea Leaves can sometimes be very confusing as something as harmless as a fly can mean you will fall deathly ill.



Chapter 2 ~ Crystal Balls

Reading crystal balls is the most advanced and hardest section of Divination. It requires a clear, peaceful mind, emptied of any thoughts besides the ball. First of all, you must stand the ball on a ball holder and place it on the table. Sit beside the table facing the ball directly. Do not lift your gaze from the ball. Ensure that there will be no distractions during the reading as the tiniest of disturbances can cause a major backfire or you could pass out. Gaze into the ball and focus only on what's in it. If this works soon you shall see a swirl of mists and then gradally a picture. These pictures almost always tell the future but sometimes it's just the spirits messing around. If it does work and you dont' see anything, wait a day or two then try again. Never try again straight away. Crystal ball gazing uses a lot of energy and twice in a row uses enough energy to kill you.



Chaper 3 ~ Tarot Cards

Tarot cards are very advanced and ancient form of foreseeing passed down for centuries. Somehow during that time muggles became aware of it and now there are muggles who read cards as a way of making money. Of course they aren't as precise as we but they have been known to make a good premotion every once in a whle. On each card there is a picture such as, a cup, five stars, lovers or death. Each card has a name and meaning. To get the meaning you must shuffle them and then turn a certain nunber over. If a card is facing a different way when turned over it can change the meaning dramatically.



Chapter 4 ~ Magic 8 Ball

To muggles this is nothing more than a child's toy but to us it is one of the most reliable forms of foreseeing available. The 8 ball starts of a toy but with the right charms, spells and incantations it can tell your fortune. The charms you must use are secret but you must use a luck charm, a good fortune charm, a future charm and a few others. Nowadays, there are few wizard houses that do not have one.
