Radicija

Radicija refers to the practice of using divination techniques to gain insight or knowledge. These methods often involve interpreting patterns, symbols, or signs believed to be influenced by supernatural or mystical forces. The term can encompass a wide variety of practices, each with its own specific tools and interpretations.

Common forms of radicija include scrying, which involves gazing into reflective surfaces like water, mirrors, or crystals to perceive visions. Bibliomancy is another practice, where random passages are selected from a book, typically the Bible or other sacred texts, and interpreted for guidance. Cartomancy, the use of playing cards or tarot decks, is also a popular form of radicija, with each card assigned specific meanings. Lithomancy involves the interpretation of stones, their colors, or their arrangement. Geomancy, on the other hand, uses patterns drawn in the earth or sand.

The belief underlying radicija is that these methods can provide answers to questions, reveal future events, or offer guidance in decision-making. Interpretations are often subjective and depend on the practitioner's intuition and understanding of the specific symbolic system employed. Radicija has a long history across many cultures and continues to be practiced in various forms today, often within spiritual or esoteric traditions.
