Ceromancy? Does anybody practice it? (Revelation, divination)

[Bishka]

I was told that ceromancy was candle reading? Does anyone practice it here? And if they do could they just give me a bit of an intro, I'm curious what it entails. Thanks.

There's this marvelous invention called the Internet on which we can look up such things.

I don't practice it, but it looks pretty straightforward. Like any divination, a random mark is generated and the message decoded according to the rules that have been determined for it.

Sure!

Pretty much, as with most 'readings', the details of what means what is dependant on the perception of the person doing the reading. For example, some might pay attention to if a flame flickers or if it is blown in a certain direction. Others could take an interest in what color the flame is. This is used to determine either the future or the present. (Or whatever the situation at hand is.) An offshoot of this is the practice of looking at melted candle wax and seeing figures in it.

I'm sorry. I set out to try to give an overview, and I think I may have made things more complicated.

.

I know, but not everything on the internet is true, factual or even right. That's why I asked here, because I figured people here would have a better grip on it if they practiced in themselves.

No, you are great. Thank you Meggie.

Good link. That about covers the whole ball of wax.

That's very wise, as was demonstrated by Feathers having useful information.

You also provided good information, and I appreciate that. Sorry if I came off a little harsh. I've been sick all week.
