The Art and Practice of Geomancy; Divination, Magic, and Earth Wisdom of the Renaissance
The Art and Practice of Geomancy; Divination, Magic, and Earth Wisdom of the Renaissance by John Michael Greer. Have you lost an important object? Are you taking on a new job? Looking for buried treasure? The Art and Practice of Geomancy teaches you this centuries-old method of divining the answers to life’s everyday questions, such as health, luck, new jobs, and love, as well as the less mundane: finding buried treasure, predicting the weather, being released from prison, identifying secret enemies. Greer delivers the essentials of geomancy in an easy-to-use form, requiring little more than a pen and piece of paper. Using a system of odd and even numbers, from a deck of cards, roll of the dice, or even by hitting sand with a stick to generate patterns, you will learn to cast your own geomantic chart. And if you wish to take the practice further, Greer offers deeper exercise for geomantic meditation and geomantic ritual magic. The Art and Practice of Geomancy will appeal to pagans, followers of the Western Mystery Tradition, scholars of folk-magic and divination, and anyone who wants to take their past, present, and future into their own hands. $18.95 pp 243 (1 lb) Pub. 2009.
