A delightful in-depth guide to the divination practices of conjure
from the beloved author of Old Style Conjure and other books In
Divination Conjure Style Starr Casas shares the secrets of
conjure-style divination that she learned at home and that, until very
recently, were family secrets that were only transmitted orally.
Traditional conjure is the domain of the poor and disenfranchised,
living in regions that were (and remain) unfriendly to esotericism and
the occult. Thus, conjure divination relies on inexpensive tools that
are not exclusively magical: playing cards, rather than tarot cards,
or scrying with blue water instead of a crystal ball. The primary
focus of Divination Conjure Style is playing-card divination, but
other methods covered include bibliomancy, pyromancy, pendulums, and
throwing the bones. Starr discusses the history of these methods and
also offers practical information so that the reader can master these
techniques for themselves. Josef Bailey, a young New Orleans artist,
has created illustrations of conjure-style playing cards to Starr’s
specifications.
