The Spinning Method
For this casting method, you’ll need a piece of kitchen equipment known as a lazy susan, the kind for use in kitchen cabinets. If you can find one of those lazy-susans with a two or three-inch lip to it, to keep the objects from flying off when you spin it, so much the better. If you don’t have a lazy susan with a lip, you are also going to have to invest in another piece of equipment, a cake pan, a spring-form pan, a shallow round basket, or any round receptacle with perpendicular sides, which is placed on the lazy susan, and into which the objects are dropped for spinning. The casting surface on the lazy-susan should be at least nine inches in diameter, but twelve to sixteen inches is better.
In this method of divination, you start with the lazy-susan and its basket before you, and the bowl, jar, or box of micromancy objects on whichever side is your less-dominant hand, and out of your range of sight. Focus on your question and start the lazy-susan spinning with your dominant hand. Not taking your eyes off the spinner, reach over to the container of objects and grab three random handfuls of objects, dropping each handful onto the spinning surface. Do not look into the bowl as you are grabbing your three fistfuls; you want your grabs to be completely random. After you have released the third handful onto the spinning surface, stop spinning it and wait for it come to a natural stop. Those objects which end up in the center of the tray are relate to those matters which you consider to be of central importance, or those things with which you more self-identify, while things along the sides represent more peripheral issues.
Then ask yourself, which objects landed near what other objects? Did any objects end up alone? Did any objects fly off the turntable while it was spinning? Did any objects land insuch a way that it looks like they wanted out of this reading? Which objects landed closer to you and the questioner, and which objects landed further away? Did everything clump together, or did you end up with two or three clumps? Did any of the objects land face-down? If any of the objects landed face down, do you sense whether it makes a difference or not to the overall reading? Where did your attention go first, when the spinning stopped?
You may, if you wish, use any kind of chart in the bottom of the spinner, but so long as you are crystal-clear on the meanings and associations of each fetish-object, you should be able to give an effective, illuminating and applicable reading. This method of divination works best as a general overview of the questioner’s life, although the questioner may, if they wish, pose a specific question. A good overall order to pose with this method is ‘Give me an overview of my life at this time.’ Once you see the general lay of the land in your reading, you can make changes. This is another one of those divination methods which can double as a fun and amusing party game.
