by Orry Whitehand (Author)

This little booklet aims to teach you how to read the Celtic ogham characters for the purpose of divination. It is a purely practical instruction manual, intent upon giving you the information you need in order to actually do something and put the principles into practice. As such, all historical or philosophical information is kept to a bare minimum, except that which is absolutely necessary for you to understand what you are doing.The booklet is divided into four sections: What the ogham letters areThe meanings of the oghamHow to make your own ogham setHow to use the ogham for divinationIn short, the booklet will instruct you in the shapes, sounds and values of the ogham; what they mean; how to make and charge a set, and how to use them to cast divinations (or, more colloquially, 'fortune telling').
