I’m back! It is summer vacation for me with no classes till August. I have several items to review before school starts again and this is the first. Tsura Nuri of Tarot by Seven posted a painted bone reading set in the Facebook Bone Reading Group and offered it for sale. I tried […]
I found the Promise Land Tannery Animal Bones Divination Set while looking for real animal bone lots on Etsy to put into a little swag bag for my presentation at the Mile High Conjure Gala. It is a very nice set with a good selection of animal bones, teeth, and claws which can be used as […]
I have a PowerPoint presentation on bone divination that I give from time to time. In it I have a bone set made from items found on my daily dog walks, and items that I found lying around the house. I use it to show what you can put together for free if you are […]
