Introduction to Divination Tools
Divination is a common practice among Witches, Wiccans and Pagans. Divination takes many forms, and while some of the Craft will use several different techniques, most everyone has their own favorite method for seeking answers from the Divine.
Some of the favorite divination methods include the use of tarot cards, pendulums or runes. Crystal and/or crystal ball gazing, reading tea leaves, gazing into a pool or bowl of water or candle gazing are also popular. The list goes on and on.
Any of these items can help you strengthen your intuition. Simply choose the one you are most comfortable using and practice, practice, practice. It may seem hard in the beginning, but don't give up. The more you use these tools, the easier it gets.
Almost anything can be used as a divination tool, and over the centuries just about everything has been. You are simply using these items to strengthen your spirit or intuition. Don't overwhelm yourself. Start with tools you are comfortable with and try more complicated methods as you develop your abilities.

Crystal Ball Gazing
This technique is best if done with a Crystal Ball 2-5 inches in diameter and works best on nights of the full moon.
Light one or two candles in a darkened, quiet room. You can hold the crystal or place it on a stand, but it should have a blue or black velvet cloth underneath it. Make sure that there are no reflections from anything showing in the ball. You can also burn incense if you wish. Patchouli works great for me.
Before beginning, center yourself. Gaze into the ball, but do not stare. Try not to blink that much. While you are gazing, breathe in and out slowly and deeply. Just relax and gaze. You will feel a sense of limitless time. Enjoy the peacefulness and simply gaze. Do this for at least 15 minutes, and increase your time by 5 minutes with each succeeding session.
Usually around the second or third session, you will notice a small cloudy glow in the center of the crystal. This is your focusing area where your visions will appear. You may get a vision on your first try, while others have to attempt it several times before seeing something. Go at your own pace.
Just a small warning: Always remember the saying "Be Careful What You Wish For" while gazing. Think about what you wish to see before gazing.
There are also different forms that visions come in. You can get actual visions of places and people, or you can get symbolic pictures. Another form that visions come in are color clouds. Although no one has been successful in identifying what each color cloud means, the following has been pretty accurate for a lot of seers.
Blue clouds symbolize success of career or business
Gold clouds symbolize prosperity, steady cash flow, and renewed romance to come
Gray/Dark gray symbolize ill fortune
Black clouds symbolize some seriously bad stuff coming one's way
Green clouds symbolize health, happiness of the heart
Orange clouds symbolize hidden aggression and anger, troubled emotions
Red clouds symbolize danger to come. This person must watch themselves
Silver clouds symbolize troublesome times ahead followed by goodness
White clouds symbolize very good fortune to come
Yellow clouds symbolize upcoming obstacles
