I know this is not what you expect from a live #DawnChorus stream like #Reveil10, but we're actually doing #bibliomancy in the IRC chat box, thanks to Bram Thomas Arnold's instructions, we are.

Decided to finally write my ✨ first post ✨ on here, in hopes I'll like this place enough to establish myself and share things on here.

Is it just me that's incredibly picky about online spaces? It can be difficult for me to take the plunge and explore a new site or platform, and this goes doubly so for witchy/pagan/spiritual oriented places because after years of being (a queer) Greek online, I know what I'll see, and some times you just do not have the energy to get into arguments because foreigners think they know better than you your own culture. Fun stuff. Anyway. Positive thinking and whatnot. Hopefully the people here are chill!

I miss sharing informative tidbits and exchanging perspectives and methods with fellow practitioners, you know? It's nice to get to see how other cultures, other people do things, especially when you get to draw parallels and point out differences and similarities. There are good people out there, curious and respectful people who are willing to learn without overstepping boundaries and who take correction with grace. That's why I keep coming back to posting, I guess, regardless of platform. I like helping people learn.

What kind of posts you can expect from me: #divination like #cartomancy , including but not limited to #tarot and #oracle decks, #osteomancy , #scrying and #bibliomancy , #herbalism #deathwork #spiritwork #greek #myth #folklore #culture #tradition and #witchcraft oh and #polytheism of course. I'm sure some posts about textiles (knitting, weaving, etc.) will worm their way over as well.

Hopefully this is how the tag system works here, lol.

I was today years old when I realized there is a word for the thing that I've done with books almost my entire life.

I thought it was just a thing I'd made up!

Looking through old Evernote notebooks reminded me of this gem: https://at.tumblr.com/wisehoagiekidwobbler/631895352667193344/xov157byvyxd
#bibliomancy

W stands for "gute Zeit" (good times).
H stands for "freude" (joy).

Using (sacred) books for divinatory techniques is called #Bibliomancy. Here, the #Bible is used for divination. Open the Bible on a random page, take the first letter of the first word on the left page explains this manuscript of the famous Leipzig Magica-Collection. Then check the pre-formulated answers for each of the 26 letters and find answers.
