Some practitioners use a combination of bent pins and straight pins. Deviners then look for the pattern that the needles make in the substance to make their readings. A further method is to have pins that are marked with mystical symbols and letters. These are placed in a quiver and drawn out one at a time and the reading taken from the order the pins are drawn. in order to practice Acultomancy. Diviners frequently rely on flour, but other practitioners of the art use substances like salt, sugar and talcum powder. See also
