Anyone can practice divination. You don't need to be psychic, or believe that a
higher power controls the cards. Anyone can learn to predict the future using
the methods described in this book. Divination for Beginners by popular author Scott Cunningham helps you learn how to choose the methods that works
best for you, and ask the right questions so you get accurate answers. Discover
the secrets of a wide variety of methods, from Tarot cards and the I Ching to
crystal gazing, palmistry, fire gazing, and even reading signs and omens in the world around
you.
The real value of divination is in planning and prevention. If you
like the answers you receive, continue on. If it looks like trouble ahead,
adjust your course of action and see how your new plan affects the outcome. In
this way you can use divination to fine tune your future and start living the
life you've always dreamed of.
