[Help] divination under right hand path/white magic

[jbark138]

what’s the deal with the divination section being under right hand path/white magic? seems pretty new agey. is it the solar aspect of a divination through calculation based methods (such as astrology, which is a ninth house subject (solar)) as opposed to divination through psychic ability (third house activity (lunar based)?

What about a divination forum?

Most people involved in the occult can benefit from various forms of divination - Tarot, I-Ching, Geomancy, whatever. A forum dedicated to divination methods would be a good addition, in my opinion.

Clicked because I'm interested in divination.

I can see it from both perspectives. To be fair to the LHP forum, Demonology isn't exclusive to LHP or Black Magic, either.

Personally, I wouldn't fight of a divination-only forum as we don't have that many posts about divination anyway. Some, but it's not like it's 75% of that forum.

And, most divination has zero to do with the practices, because it exists across a wide spectrum of things. The only specific and bound types I can think of use astrology, Tarot, or casting bones, etc. But we have trance, dream, altered state, out of body and all sorts of other practices that involve accurate visions and experiences of the future that come true. So there are the mechanical/physical object attempts at divination, and there are those that actually see the future events in altered states.

As mentioned in the thread @Yazata linked: it’s not “under” the RHP section. Rather RHP, WM, and divination are all in a section together.

No.
