Midnight Divination Spell

This is a good spell if you have a simple question. It can also be a two-part
spell that you begin on midnight of Samhain and finish when you awaken the
next day, All Souls.
Use this spell if you need to know a) a yes or no answer to a question or b) a
choice between two possibilities. Speak your desire in a detailed manner. Be
specific.
You will need:

• a single black taper candle (it must not be the “dripless” kind, as you
• will need the melting wax for your spell to work)
• optional: a single white taper candle, if you wish to explore the matter
• further
• a penny and a nickel
• if you would like to continue the divination, a deck of tarot cards

Cast your circle, and set the candle in its holder upon your altar. Set the
penny on one side of the candle and the penny on the other, approximately
two inches away from the candle itself. Prepare your mind, relax your body,
and breathe deeply. When you are ready, light the candle, and say:
“Oh, brilliant night, when the veil is thin,
I seek the answers from within,
let this candle burn around,
that which represents the truth found.”
Pick up the nickel, and state what it represents, such as:
“This coin represents yes” or “This coin represents (choice A).” Return it to
its place beside the candle.
Pick up the penny, and state what it represents, such as:
“This coin represents no” or “This coin represents (choice B).” Return it to its
place beside the candle.
Record what you’ve designated each coin as in your book of shadows. Recite
the spellcasting words, and open the circle and ground.
The next day, if you want to investigate further the answer you received from
the candle, first, burn the bottom of the white candle a little, so it can melt
onto the mound of the black candle’s drippings, in the center of the coins.
Then, draw three tarot cards and place them next to whichever coin was the
correct answer. The cards represent the following in this order:
1) Why you received the answer you did
2) What will unfold if you accept the answer
3) What will unfold if you deny the answer
Allow the white candle to burn down; when it does, toss the wax from both
candles, as well as the coins into a crossroads to give thanks for the insight of
your divination.
