Doesn't go very deep into any 1 subject, but a decent introduction to various forms of divination to help you get a feel for which styles call to you

This book was well put together , and had alot of information on different types of divination, and I found it really beautiful and well put together, and I am determined to learn the I Ching one day! The only thing about this book that I was disappointed in, was that there was nothing in it that hasnt been announced in other books, but it was definitely the most beautiful and well put together out of all the books. I was looking for something that others do not know, or already follow, and I know it is out there somewhere. If someone is looking into learning about divination this is a great and easy book to learn from, and explains things in a simplified way.

3.5 stars.

Skimmed the last two sections, but this is more so a way to get an idea of what sort of divination you want to get into as well as a reference to check once in awhile for clarification on something. Pretty surface level, but not bad by any means!

There are also further sources in the back of the book that delve into specific divination practices, which I thought was a nice touch.
