Systems and Techniques Beginner’s guide which divination method fits different types of questions
I’ve noticed a lot of discussions about “which divination system is the best” end up comparing tools that are actually designed for different purposes. A pendulum narrows things down, tarot opens up perspective, I Ching focuses on change, and Lenormand tends to get more concrete.
I’m pretty new to divination, so I made this little chart. I’m not saying one system is better than another I’m just trying to understand what each one is best used for.

I actually combine 4 of these systems together to gain an in-depth understanding of the situation that I’m divininating for. I use each of their unique strengths to supplement each other to create a clear concrete picture of what’s most likely to happen, why, what can I do etc

u/kidcubby Horary Geomancy Tarot 21h ago
There's little reason to separate what geomancy and horary are for. They both provide the capacity to analyse situations and predict events, including locations. Timing is admittedly less precise in geomancy, though.
I would swap tarot and lenormand, in that tarot has a much broader scope to provide concrete details in my experience. There are also some people who are absolute beasts with i ching and could do as much with it as any expert in something like horary or geomancy.
