Diviation to find out baby's sex and DOB?

[Hærfest Leah]

Hello I'm 26 weeks pregnant with our 2nd and I want to know if divination, dreams or even meditation can help me find out the sex of this baby and the day it will be born.

A friend of mine did a tarot reading for me and said this baby was a boy, I did a pendulum reading and got that this baby is a boy and will be born in 3rd week of Oct although it isn't due till Nov 11. (labor at 37 weeks that would be excellent) We have had an ultrasound and at it they all said it looks very much like a girl. (yes we know they can be wrong) But now I'm wondering ok which one is right about the sex?

Does the unknown actually know to be able to give me these answers ahead of time? Would anyone like to try a reading and see what answers you get for me?

Can I do more to find out, should I meditate on the questions and see if the answer comes to me? what ?

i dunno about the date... but i can tell you how i find out the sex, aside from an ultrasound. there is a more 'normal' way of doing this... but here's how to do it with things laying around your house... this way you don't have to go spend any money.

ok...
get an unsharpened pencil
a needle
a piece of thread long enough to be at least 5 or 6 inches long when folded in half
go to a room where the air is still, stick the needle into the middle of the pencil eraser, thread the needle so you can suspend the pencil by the thread. hold the end of the thread that isn't stuck into the pencil over the inside of one of your wrists.. or have someone else hold it. doesn't matter really, as long as the hand holding it is steady. i can never emember which way is which... lol. it will go in circles or from side to side, if you have any kids already you can easily figure out which is which... if you don't have any.. post that and i'll do it on myself and tell you. anyway... that will tell you how many kids you will have and their sex.

a Penudulum should work nicely

Thats what I'm thinking, I may break out my pendulum again. I made it myself using a spiral sea shell on a silver chain and then ofcourse it was consecrated. I want to read more on pendulum dowsing tho. I'll do some searches to see if I can find some threads on here about it.

You know, you can try a method I used even before I got pregnant the first time.. It 's the same principle as using a pendulum Back then I used a needle and thread (a Christian friend told me this trick) But if you have a pendulum it works too..
With needle and thread.. thread a needle, using about 4-8 inches of thread (already doubled)
touch the needle tip to your left wrist.. (to steady it) then raise it an inch or two from your wrist.. the needle will begin to swing either up and down or side to side.. AS it stops, it might go in a circle.. It won't swing softly, but should swing strongly.. Here's where I may be confused.. The results..
If it swings side to side,(width of your wrist) it's a boy..If it swings up and down your wrist it's a girl.. Btw.. when I did this over 20 yrs ago, it swung the same direction (after coming to stops) 6 times.. I had 6 girls.. Over the course of 15 years If anyone would have told me that was anything more than a joke I'd have laughed because I had NO Intention of having 6 kids... I wanted 4 max... Have someone else do this, brace their elbows on a table so they don't unintentionally move. and be patient ..make sure it isn't going to move more.. sometimes it takes a minute to "get going again" after it stops from one to the next *L* .

If you have a pendulum, you can use it instead of the needle and thread.. If you have one child already, you'll be able to tell which is actually which..
Have fun..

I have the chart for the chinese lunar callendar. It was accurate on both my babies and all the other babies of friends 15 and counting. pm me your age and month you got prego and I will send you the sex and a copy of the chart its awesome

Check out the pendulums thread in Magic and Rituals because this is discussed in there, using your wedding band or other special ring and your own hair as a pendulum. If you don't have hair long enough use some fine thread. This method was something my Mum has mentioned in the past as well. I just can't remember which of spinning or swinging represents a boy. I've heard about the needle and thread method as well.

Another one that i've read about, but really can't vouch for, is generally used to fine out if you are pregnant. It's a bit gross so apologies, but according to the source is used by romanies. Before you go to bed crack an egg in a jug, urinate on it and leave it overnight. In the morning, if the egg is on the surface then you are pregnant. If the parts of the egg are separate then it is a boy, if they are intermingled it is a girl.

One thing about the scan is that apparently boys bits don't form and drop until much later in the pregnancy so they don't shown up on early scans. Friends of mine were told in the early stages that they were having a girl, they decorated the nursery pink and bought all girls clothes. No prizes for guessing they had a boy.

I looked and it was wrong for my daughter and says this ones a girl, but I don't care for that chart, for any chart that says entertainment purposes only. I'm on ivillage a lot I like it. I want to cut out the wives tales and thats why I was asking about divination since it seems to be more correct or accurate.
