Bedridden witch: Divination edition
Ideas for practicing divination while bedridden: Varying in energy + mobility required - please donât push yourself, hopefully thereâs options for everyone! Quick note: Iâve only included forms of divination I personally do.
Tarot apps are a great way to pull a card with a tap or two (Labyrinthos and Galaxy tarot have been recommended).Â
Spread the deck on a flat surface, and move your hand over to pick (let your hands sense the energy), or pick based on intuition.Â
Do a two-card (or more!) spread - you donât have to lay it out if you canât sit up, you can hold them in your hand or place on your lap.
Sleep with the deck under your pillow.
Pick one card that represents what you want from the next day and slip it under your pillow or mattress for the night, or place on your altar.
Memorize the meanings of the cards.
Make or buy a mini deck for easier use.
Do the easy âfind this card and whatever is above or below it =Xâ spreads.
More limited mobility suggestions here
Use a black mirror or picture frame with black cloth/paper behind it.
Get a mini scrying bowl and fill with water, cradle it in your hands.
Wear it around your neck.
Shorten the string so you donât have to sit up.
Prop your hand on a pillow if you need the strength/steadiness.
Use off of the side of your bed if itâs too long (this can be a bit awkward)
Keep it under your pillow.
Use a mini pendulum or a necklace as a pendulum.
Make a simple board or donât use one at all, just condition your pendulum with basic movements.
*You CAN use a pendulum even with shaky hands, it just takes a bit of bonding and conditioning.*
More limited mobility suggestions here
Get a mug with two handles.
Keep in a sealable container until youâre ready.
Put a towel over yourself in case you spill.
Use a Tupperware container. No shame.
(With a huge thanks to @adragonspath for compiling a list of suggestions!)
Sleep with your runes next to you.
Draw one rune and meditate on their meaning and how you can manifest them in your life.
Charge them with sun/moon light by your window.
Study their origin and reading methods.
Crystal and wooden runes: connect with the element Earth and the intent corresponding to the crystal/type of wood.
Other materials: meditate on the origin and development of that material. Connect with the corresponding element and intent.
Astragalomancy - Divination using playing dice
Oneiromancy - Interpretation of dreams in order to predict future.
Stitchomancy - Get a book. Ask question, then open book to random page and read what pops out to you.
