Sermon by author and educator Nancy Vedder-Shults at the first Unitarian Society of Madison on July 30th, 2107.
Until recently, people considered nothing more secular than science, and nothing more occult or sacred than divination. That’s beginning to change. Modern technology is finally proving what seers and sages have always known: a particular frame of mind favors new ideas, a frame of mind facilitated by divination. Nancy Vedder-Shults will illustrate her talk with a number of ancient, indigenous, and contemporary oracular techniques from her new book "The World is Your Oracle: Divinatory Practices for Tapping Your Inner Wisdom and Getting the Answers You Need."
