Could it be that Everyone is Psychic?

It has been said that every one of us actually have psychic abilities. However, once you factor in your own personality, your surrounding environment, spiritual beliefs, and other things, how psychic one is varies greatly from person to person.

Have you not had "hunches" that seemed to turn out to be right? No, they may not necessarily have exactly as you have thought, but close enough for you to notice the connection.

My husband and I are not psychics as you and I know them. However, we have been together just shy of 9 years. During that time, on an ever-increasing rate, we notice ourselves finishing each other thoughts and sentences. I will be sitting here at the computer, typing away at HTML code, my mind wandering about something ... let's say about a neighborhood cat around here by the name of Mama. A moment later, hubby will turn around and mention something about her. Ummmmm ???? That sort of things happens to us several times a day ... day after day. SO many couples who have been together for a long period of time experience similar occurrences. That is a form of psychic abilities.

Naturally, there are many other every day examples. I'm sure if you think about it, you will notice many yourself in your own life. Now, think about what would happen if you exercised your mind and developed those psychic abilities? Would it not be less stressful for you if you understood more of what your boss or significant other wanted from you in certain situations? Or would you like to explore further and see if you can see into the near future or view other realms (such as the Afterlife)?

If you have ever been drawn to learning more about psychic abilities and/or have had one too many experiences that seem too uncanny, then you could benefit from learning to develop your latent psychic abilities.

A Slightly Less Brief History of Dice

The history of dice, especially in regards to planning or divining events, is a long and intriguing one, going back thousands of years. Dice naturally were used in gaming, but also used to settle affairs of state and the heart. Since dice were prominently used by witch doctors and other similar mystics, they were considered magical devices.

The earliest known writings (religious writings) that mention dice were from the Egyptians. The Greeks also heavily mentioned and used dice in their society. Early dice consisted of animal anklebones (astragals - Greek), often times sheep knuckles. They were also make of precious stones, such as agate, amber, jet, onyx, rock crystal and even porcelain, silver, and ivory. Specimens have been found in American prehistoric Indian mounds, including the fossilized knucklebone of a llama. There is also a strong linguistic correlation between the Arabic word for knucklebones and the word for dice. The Etruscans (900 B.C.) seem to be the first to construct their dice in the form we are most familiar with today. Dice from this period have also been found in Britain in the prehistoric earthworks of Maiden Castle.

With the decline of Rome and the subsequent period of the Dark Ages, games using dice were not much in evidence. However, the Middle Ages saw a resurgence in dicing despite the condemnation of the church. The dice makers' guilds had strict laws forbidding the manufacture of loaded or fraudulent dice. This did not stop sharpers and thieves from using them.

Wikipedia has a nice, in-depth description of the various types of dice, the history, and unique images for those of you who want to delve deeply into the delicious world of dice.

The main source of most of the history of dice articles you read on the web is John Scarne's “Scarne on Dice” originally written in 1943, and reprinted in 1975. While Mr. Scarne was not famous for being a historian, he was honest enough to cite his sources when he wrote his history of dice and craps. If you follow Scarne's trail back to his original source you will find Stewart Culin (1858-1929), curator of Ethnology at the Institute of Arts and Sciences of the Brooklyn Museum in New York City. Mr. Culin was one of the first ethnographers of games and spent considerable time and effort describing their origins by traveling the world over.

And Just What Is Divination?

Divination - A Definition

Simply, Divination is the act, or attempt, to ascertain information by interpreting omens or supposedly supernatural agents. The word divination is derived from the Latin divinare, which means: to be inspired by a god, related to divine, diva and dues.

A Brief History of Divination

In nearly every civilization, for more than 2,000 years, you can find some form of divination having been used by man. Rulers wanted to know if their reign will be a long and prosperous one and if they will win wars against any adversaries. Common folks wanted to know if a perspective marriage will be fruitful or if there will be a good or bad harvest this season. No matter how civilization has changed over the last few millennia, Man has strived to learn how to shape his path in life to make sure it’s the most prosperous and happy one he can have.

Divination Methods

There are many forms of divination. It is unknown which, if any, are better than others. Many believe that these forms are just focal points to help the one casting the stones or dealing the cards to touch the supernatural to seek answers to the question asked.

Some of the more popular forms of divination include: taromancy (tarot cards), Ouija, casting bones, astrology, palmistry, gastromancy (crystal ball), and scrying (reflective objects). Here is a long list of various divination methods.

It is rare that something new comes along that is truly unique and exciting … but Steven Wagenheim’s Diceology is one of those rare items.

Over 25 years of research and development went into the creation of this fascinating form of divination incorporating the use of dice, Astrology, Tarot Cards, Numerology and Cartouche.

The main form of divination, Diceology, can stand on its own with no problem. Once you combine it with any of the other sciences, it takes on a life that has to be experienced to fully comprehend its greatness.

I have personally looked over this form of divination and can honestly say that it is like nothing I have ever seen before. Steven lays it out in plain simple to follow English that anybody can understand. There are 6 books in the set and each one is illustrated with charts and photos and explained in step by step detail.

If you’re into any form of divination at all, especially Astrology, Tarot Cards, Numerology or Cartouche, then the addition of these books to your collection is a must.

I was privileged to be one of the first to get my hands on this new form of divination. I promise you, you won’t be disappointed.
