Tarot
cards, are known traditionally as a deck of 78 cards with various pictures
on them. They have been used for hundreds of years to reveal hidden truths
about and foresee the future of the person receiving the card reading. Tarot
card decks come in many varieties-one online tarot card encyclopedia lists
70 major varieties of tarot cards. Those who believe in tarot and have their
cards read regularly say that the readings help them prepare for the future
by not only revealing truths about their lives, but also by divulging
secrets about people all around them. There is also a glow in the dark
version!
The
Gypsy Witch Fortune Telling Playing Cards are just like normal
playing cards in suit and structure, but have a small roughly
illustrated scene in the bottom right of each card and a divinatory
phrase or two above it. The Gypsy Witch
Fortune Telling Cards are basically a simplified version of Tarot
cards. Each card in the deck has a number, a short
interpretation and a mini-picture illustrating the card's meaning.
This deck can also be used as a regular playing card deck. The
standard 52-card faces are given in the upper-left corners, and two
jokers are included. The short instruction booklet is included.
Pendulums
are a very simple method of divination, usually providing only "yes
or no" answers to questions. The pendulum is an object suspended at
one end of a string or chain, and the opposite end is held lightly
between the thumb and forefinger. A question that can be answered
with a simple "yes" or "no" is asked either by the user or other
person. The pendulum should begin to swing in a particular
direction, thus giving an answer to the question. Some believe that
pendulums work by allowing a persons precognitive abilities to
answer the questions, and moves the pendulum in the direction in
which it needs to go.
Casting
Runes has been used as a form of fortune telling for centuries. Witching Stones feature the ancient pagan symbols
and are a unique and fun tool for reading the future. As you learn
the meanings of each of the thirty-five Witching Stones, you will

accompanying guidebook provides several divination methods, an
explanation of the meaning and use of each symbol. Consists of 35 of
the essential symbols of witchcraft carved onto modern tiles. The
