Fortune Telling at Mines View Park Hotel

I was one of the privileged bloggers who got to visit Mines View Park Hotel in Baguio last Sept. 23-24. One activity in the itinerary that I was really excited about was Fortune Telling. I really imagined a fat lady a la Madam Auring conducting a class to newbies and Wiccan practitioners like myself, with all her magical paraphernalia and stuff. Unfortunately, that wasn't what happened. I guess in real life, fortune tellers are just like ordinary people like you and me. They just happen to be gifted with foresight and the ability to read signs from the beyond.


For this particular fortune telling experience, our fortune teller was this goateed guy, probably in his late forties, who was sitting at the hotel lobby with a bottle of oil. Turns out, he tells the future by reading palms. I used to study palm reading before but since I only get to practice it every Halloween season, I would need to brush up on my skills once again. For those who are not aware, fortune telling is not an exact science. If you're familiar with Professor Treelawney, a character at the famous Harry Potter series, divination or fortune telling can be tricky, to the point that people are usually skeptical about it. Just like Professor Treelawney, our fortune teller that night seemed, to me, unfit to tell the future. He sounded unsure and asked a lot of questions. But then I remembered, fortune tellers are not Gods. They do need to ask a bit of info from the person they are reading so they can properly interpret what they see, in this instance, what they see on the lines of my palm.

Basically, these are the things he told me:

Lucky Lottery Spell

Here's a spell that I've been wanting to do for ages but I keep forgetting. I only remembered when Peter mentioned that he placed a bet in the lotto. He does this every so often but he never really wins anything. Perhaps this spell will help. So I'm sharing it with you here to remind me to give it a try. You can try it too. It's best done on a Thursday evening at nine o'clock.

Here are the ingredients you will need:


a small piece of putty or Plasticine


some gold paint (or gold eyeshadow or gold lipstick)


a small paintbrush


a piece of green string or cotton


a pen and paper

This spell, when properly used, will give you good luck when picking winning lottery numbers. Just follow the instructions carefully:

Daily Tarot Reading - Justice

I consider my daily tarot card reading an important food for my soul. It is how I communicate with my Spirit Guides and Guardian Angels and so far, they have always been very helpful. I trust in the power of the proper use of Tarot cards that not a day goes by without me communing with the higher power.

Today, I got particularly excited with the card that I've drawn --- JUSTICE. It is a major arcana card, therefore, this one speaks of a major issue that I am having right now and not just the little things in my life that need attending to.
