Acutomancy is an age old tradition, derived from acultomancy, and is also known as acutomanzia. Acutomancy is a practise where pointed needles are used to foretell the future. The needles are either sewing needles or pins and are usually seven in number. The diviner holds the pins or needles in his or her hands and then drops them in a shallow bowl filled with water. Some diviners will contend with a flat surface, like a table or a tray etc. On falling down the pins or needles make some patterns or motifs, which are then studied and interpreted by the diviner. Sprinkling white powder on the surface can make detection of the pattern much easier. The powder can be talcum powder, sugar or flour, and it will help you decipher the exact pattern, pins or needles make after falling, thus helping you to predict more accurately.
Acutomancy has another variation where thirteen pins or needles are used, out of which ten are to be held straight while the rest, bent. The pins are then shaken and then dropped on some flat surface, sprinkled with some white powder. The diviner then has to study the pattern made by the needles on the dust or powder and use them to predict the future.
Many people are of the view that acutomancy is not a credible divination technique but others have full faith in it. Remember that while performing the divination act of acutomancy the mind of the diviner has to be totally free from all thoughts and tensions. To achieve a completely relaxed state of mind, meditation is a good practise. Many believe that the objects used, like needles or pins, have no power of their own, and that the power comes from within the diviner’s mind. This makes it absolutely essential that you practise de-stressing and clearing your mind.
The designs or patterns, the needles or pins make on falling have varied significance such as, broken lines indicate some kind of journey or travel ahead, vertical lines denote guided tour or roads that you are likely to take, parallel lines signify monetary transaction, which can be either given or taken, and horizontal lines show ones fate.
