I've always collected trinkets, rocks, bones, everything I could fit in my pocket that "spoke" to me ever since I was small, looks like it was for something after all.

"May your gods treat you as you have treated others" is such a raw, powerful prayer. I'm gonna start using it. Thank you!

I just recently started building something called a “junk oracle” and it’s very similar to this. As someone who struggles with ocd, this is a much better form of divination for me than tarot or oracle cards. I have been reading those (cards) for YEARS and I still can’t remember the meanings and have to look it up and it makes me feel inefficient. Now for this oracle I am able to just…. Read without having that gnawing feeling to know what each thing means perfectly, to feel sufficed. Lol. Thanks for this video. Now I found a different term for the “junk oracle” I read about in a book that I instantly connected with.

In my hoodoo tradition throwing bones on a white cloth/sheet or on someone’s feet usually the person we’re throwing bones for and this can be for many purposes 💙

My grandgrandma used to read bones, but she never taught her children, and frankly her children became muslim along the way and the practice died with her.
Now I want to learn to do it myself, hopefully will manage to do so

When I started following this channel all those years ago, I started learning Osteomancy at the same time. Over the last two years, I've ramped up my study and practice with them. It touches a really special place in my heart to see this video, thank you so much.

The fact I've been doing this since I was a little kid not knowing exactly what it was called just blew my mind

I put a silver bangle in my kit, and when I throw everything,  I pay attention to when things are inside the circle or touching the edges. It's helped me to focus where my eyes go first in a reading.

I have a tendency to gatekeep myself when it comes to new parts of the craft, but you make everything seem way less intimidating and more open to everyone. Thank you for the nice vibes!!

Congratulations Olivia for now having 400K subscribers! Fantastic to see your channel grow!

As a lifelong learner sometimes I forget how creative the Craft really is.  Thank you for reminding me of that with this video.  I personally cannot wait to give this a throw!

As someone who’s been throwing the bones for years, I want to add that there definitely doesn’t need to be a specific meaning ascribed to each bone/piece, and often it’s better if there isn’t. While some of my pieces do have symbolism I’ve attributed to them, many don’t, and are read by me simply by the places they fall and their relation to other pieces. It’s a very intuitive form of divination and as such, the pieces you use shouldn’t have rigid meanings. For instance, I have some pieces, a broken jagged bone for instance, that typically speaks of a threat or some sort of danger. However, during some readings it speaks in a different way. Sometimes I sense it speaking of hurt or even protection. It’s good to have a general sense of what some specific pieces usually speak of, but to confine them into one meaning can really restrict a reading.
Other bones of mine have no specific meaning at all, and are only read based off their position or the shapes they make or whatever they speak of at the moment. Often they land in very specific and telling patterns, which can be very informative. They don’t each need a personal meaning. Plus, it’s very hard to ascribe some attribute or deep meaning to a simply bone, that doesn’t speak of that energy at all.
Of course, bone throwing is a very personal and again a very intuitive form of divination, and each person will throw the bones a bit differently. Some may find that having a very specific meaning for each piece works better for them, and if so, I’m glad they’ve found something that works! But I personally don’t prefer it, and just wanted to share my opinion for anyone who’s new to throwing the bones or who is interested in trying it!

My tribe (kaurna, native Australian) use feathers and stones along with our bones, Magipies are actually symbolic to our tribes so I'm loving how you call it 'magpie oracle'.
To my people Magpies are the ones who lifted the sky and brought light to the darkness, they are messengers and bringers of success X
Different tribes do it differently(or dont do it at all, hell not even all kaurnas throw bones) , my grandma went a little further used a painted cloth to throw them on, it was painted to orient with a compass. Too bad she died when I was little, wish I knew what benefits it provided to her readings..
Im reading Of Blood and Bone by Kate frueler and that has a section on bone throwing that I have yet to get to but judging by how in depth the rest of the book has been, it's going to be very helpful.

I’m thrilled to learn of a throwing divination that doesn’t involve bones or animal parts! I’ve collected random things my whole life (everything to glass or metal or broken jewelry off the street, to rocks and feathers and dried plants, to small toys or coins) and I’m really looking forward to utilizing my hoard in a way beyond decoration🌿

Thank you for this video <3!
Today I saw a video of a woman who said that tarot cards are bad & evil and you can get ‘possessed by demons’ by only watching a reading. She claimed it’s written in the bible 🤦‍♀️🙄

Don’t judge or even hate others for their beliefs, especially if you’re religious yourself!

When I was little I was obsessed with Lps and dolls and little things liked that and so when you said I could make my kit out of anything I sprinted down the hall and I’ve been in the attic finding old doll accessories and things for over an hour.

I have always tossed a coin for yes or no & crossroads decisions. Before I toss I ask my question & identify heads this way & tails that way. This has always worked extremely well for me.

I remember asking an eraser for answers in middle school, I'd 'quiz' it on things and it got it right everytime when it could 'see' what I asked about. Also dice for mostly yes and no. Dice worked better than a pendulum for me but I never thought of the similarity until now.

I have that same little turtle who also surprisingly represents luck for me!
I got him while looking at my elementary teachers turtle/tortoise collection on her desk and explaining to her that I have a pet tortoise at home.She gave the little charm too me and I still have him too this day.That little turtle has a special place in my heart as it was given to her and she passed him on too me.

The magpie also likes to correct things based on its discretion.
