0:00.0	Hello and welcome to Psychic Teachers, a podcast for Seekers, Lightworkers, Mystics and Magical
0:05.6	Thinkers. I'm your host Samantha Fey. And I'm Deb Bowen. And we're happy to have you join us
0:10.1	here this week. We're going to dive into some ancient divination tools. So pour yourself a cup of
0:15.7	coffee or tea and join us around the table as we discuss the etching, runes, and tea leaves.
0:22.3	Deb, would you like to start us off? I absolutely would Samantha. You know, I have to tell a story on
0:28.0	myself. In the early days of my journey into metaphysics back in the 60s and 70s, I really was
0:38.3	fascinated by the etching. And I tried. I really, really tried. In fact, in my copy of the etching,
0:47.7	which I will talk about the actual copy of this book that I own, there are pages, slips of paper,
0:54.7	stuck in it from the early 80s where I have done readings for friends, readings for myself,

1:42.8	is thousands of years old. We're not quite sure how many thousands of years, but really, really
1:49.6	ancient and really became a tool of the elite, of the leaders of the country, the kings.
1:59.4	In that, Confucius, the Taoist movement, the Buddhist movement, even some Christian commentators
2:08.4	over centuries have used the etching in a way to bring about guidance and explanation of
2:19.0	major world events as well as events happening in one's life personally.
2:25.4	So there are many translations of the etching. The one that is probably into English the most
2:33.0	famous was done by a German man named Richard Wilheim, W-I-L-H-E-L-M Wilhelm.
