We offer the following divination services
$41
Wax scrying (ceromancy) is a highly intuitive form of divination.
The wax readings that we offer here at Bayou Root House are performed with a candle that has been cleansed and prayed over in your name. We speak the issue into the candle and then we use that candle to perform a type of scrying involving dripping hot wax into a bowl of water and herbs.
We perform two styles of wax reading. The first style is more traditional and involves simply allowing the candle to drip directly into the bowl while we hold it. The other style is more modern and involves melting the candle down and pouring all the liquid wax into the bowl at once.
If you book a candle wax reading, please let us know which style you prefer (the price is the same for either)
Playing Card Readings
$60
Playing cards can be used for more than just card games.
In fact, a regular ol’ deck of playing cards can give some of the most straightforward and direct advice for everyday situations if you know how to read them. This form of divination is known as cartomancy and playing card divination was what came before Tarot cards.
While Tarot gained popularity in the 15th century, playing cards had been being used as a divinatory tool for a full century before Tarot hit the scene.
When we read the playing cards for a client; the suits, colors, numbers, patterns and images of the playing cards all work together to provide layers of depth to a reading and tells us a story from start to finish that we can interpret for whatever situation we are facing.
Sortilege Readings
$80
The casting of lots, also known as sortilege divination, involves the tossing of various objects and interpreting them based on a variety of factors. This could include things like the patterns they make, where they landed, what they landed near, what direction the piece is facing, so on and so forth.
To say that this sort of reading can get in depth is a massive understatement.
Tarot Card Readings
$50
Tarot card readings are the perfect blend of symbolism, intuition and lots of deep thought.
While playing cards readings (cartomancy) are direct and generally more concerned with mundane issues, tarot cards are much better at giving creative advice, urging the querent to think about the situation from multiple angles, not just one.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many questions can I ask?
I try to be as reasonable as possible and I appreciate clients who do the same. A spiritual reading is an opportunity to really dive into various areas of your life in a meaningful way and I encourage all my clients to really think about their questions before they schedule a reading with me. Narrow them down to a handful of things and you should be fine.
Also, it’s important to understand that a reading is just as much about receiving advice to questions that you may not have thought to ask.
What type of questions can I ask?
You can ask any sort of question that you’d like more insight about. It could be in relation to money, health, love, social life, enemies, etc. You can generally ask pretty much anything you want to ask.
However… to get the most out of your reading, you really ought to view it as a chance to ask meaningful questions and receive sacred advice. Trivial questions or questions with very logical conclusions can be answered with divination, sure. But is it the best use of the time spent communicating with the spirits? No, it’s not.
Asking for the spirits to answer trivial and vague questions like “Does he like me?” and “Will I win the lottery?” is a good example of what you should avoid.
So, before you schedule your reading, spend some time thinking about what you really want to know that you just can’t seem to figure out easily on your own. Put some thought into it and then reach out to have me add depth and untangle some of the trickier parts.
As for things that I will absolutely not perform divination for:
– I won’t tell you when you or someone else will die
– I won’t perform readings regarding unborn children
Will divination fix my problem?
No, divination will not solve your problem on its own.
The purpose of a spiritual consultation through the use of divination is to acquire deeper insight into situations in your life and, possibly, provide advice on what you can do to positively affect those situations.
And while a spiritual reading will give you a sort of guide on what you should do next, it’s ultimately your decision to follow the advice given or do something else entirely.
At its core, divination is simply a conversation.
What information do you need from me to perform a reading?
Unless you are having an in-person reading with me, I will need your full name and date of birth.
How long will it take to receive my reading?
Generally, within 48 hours.
Please be aware that I do get rather busy so there may be times when it takes a bit longer to get a report sent out to you.
I try to record an audio clip of me explaining your reading results as well as type up an overview for your quick reference.
Scheduling time, performing the reading, cleansing myself before and after, typing up a report and recording audio to explain everything can take a little of time. But it is your reading and you deserve my full attention to the process. Please be patient, I promise it will be worth it.
