Shift a question's letters along the alphabet to draw out a hidden line.
Each letter moves forward by an amount set by its position and the hour you choose. A different hour gives a different line.
Write the question as a single clear sentence, exactly as you would ask it aloud. Ask it once. Re-wording a question makes it a new question in this tradition, and it must then be started again from the beginning rather than adjusted. Set the hour to the one you are actually asking in — open Planetary hours first to find it, and if you can, choose an hour marked auspicious.
These are traditional practices about which scholars genuinely differ, and some hold parts of them to be impermissible. This site takes no position on that question and is not a substitute for a qualified scholar. Use your own judgement. Terms.
