Divining with Achi and Tara is a book on Tibetan methods of prognostics with dice and prayer beads (mala). Jan-Ulrich Sobisch offers a thorough discussion of Chinese, Indian, Turkic, and Tibetan traditions of divination, its techniques, rituals, tools, and poetic language. Interviews with Tibetan masters of divination introduce the main part with a translation of a dice divination manual of the deity Achi that is still part of a living tradition. Solvej Nielsen contributes further interviews, a mala divination of Tara and its oral tradition, and very useful glossaries of the terminology of Tibetan divination and fortune telling. Appendices provide lists of deities and spirits and of numerous identified ritual remedies and supports that are an essential element of a still vibrant Tibetan culture.

Reading Tea Leaves is your ultimate guide to the ancient art of tasseography - divination with tea leaves. Traditionally a homespun form of divination often practiced by women, tea-leaf reading gave glimpses into the drama of daily life - who was stopping by after supper and if a letter was on the way. The process is simple: brew yourself a cup of loose-leaf tea, settle down somewhere comfy, and sip it intentionally. Once you've reached the bottom of the cup, the tea leaves that remain will take the form of shapes and symbols that can give you guidance, spark your intuition, and even give you a hint of the future. Originally published in 19th century but now updated for modern readers, Reading Tea Leaves will teach you everything you need to know to begin reading the leaves yourself. Inside you'll find a dictionary of symbolic meanings to help you successfully interpret the images you see in the cup, along with ten illustrated example readings to allow you to hone your interpretive skills. The art of reading tea leaves is a warm-hearted invitation to celebrate the small, magical moments we encounter every day.

Mir Bashir's classic work is renowned for its comprehensive exploration of the art of hand reading. The text carefully explores and explains the two methods of analysis: cheirognomy and cheiromancy.

Cheirognomy is the study of the shape of the hand, finger formations, nails, skin texture and the eight mounts of the hand. Cheiromancy is the interpretation of the lines and markings engraved on the palm's surface. Mir Bashir considers the seven major lines, as well as treating in detail the wealth of minor and unusual signs and marks.

This new edition of The Art of Hand Analysis contains over 400 illustrations, providing the reader with a visual encyclopaedia to accompany this authoritative text.

By combining careful analysis with experience and intuition, Mir Bashir demonstrates that divination through hand reading is neither superstition nor game, but a path to self-discovery and a wonderful way to satisfy age-old curiosity.

Joseph shares his experiences with the disease Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) which twice (less than 1 in 1,000,000 chance of this) and very quickly, paralyzed him. He slowly healed. In the paralysis state, his mind was at a heightened level of awareness. Unable to do anything physical, he applied himself to understanding the vivid messages that became so present to him. He provides a chronicle of the GBS, but more, he provides a detailed account of the discoveries made available to him, explained in his own simple language. Up From Paralysis shares Joseph's journey of discovery of "how it all works" for him, and he suggests for us too, when it comes to listening to that tiny whisper of wisdom some call intuition, Spirit, Guidance from the "other side," which is actually "inside." Learn how to, through increased clarity, live a more successful life in all dimensions.
