Aximoncy is a form of divintion using an axe.
It was this form of divination that was used to predict the ruin of Jerusalem.
There are two methods of Axinomancy.
One method involves use of an Agate.
A round Agate must be produced.
The head of the axe is heated red hot and placed so its edge is standing perpendicularly in the air.
The Agate is placed on the edge.
If it remains it there, it is a negative sign.
If it rolls way and does this three times it is a positive sign.
