For divination rituals, mix the following in a small hurricane lamp as a base fuel:
2/3 of the fuel should be kerosene or other lamp fuel
1/3 of the fuel should be a mix of castor & olive oils
The magickal ingredients should include:
9 drops of peppermint oil
1/2 tsp. of anise seeds, or 3 whole Star Anise heads
few drops of blue food coloring
parchment talisman of 5th Pentacle of Jupiter
Add all magickal ingredients before adding lamp fuel. As always, take extra fire safety precautions when using a magickal lamp. Remember to only use enough fuel for one sitting, unless you plan to make this a nightly ritual, or the next use of the lamp will be for the same purpose.
The 5th Pentacle of Jupiter comes to us from the Key of Solomon, and is said to assure visions. Any stone of the beryl family would be useful for this task, and if you don't happen to have one on hand, any form of quartz, or obsidian will do nicely.
Before lighting the wick, very gently swirl the lamp in a slow clockwise motion as you chant the following, or the spell of your own choosing:
"Bring to me the means to see
The answers which so elude me."
Then, simply concentrate on the divinations you desire. Repeat the chant if necessary.
