  Divination
  Personally, I am not much of a believer in divination (fellow skeptics might want to look at the Center for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal), but for those that are, I recommend:
• For information about the Kabbalah
• Facade for Tarot, I Ching, Runes, Bibliomancy, Biorythms, and Stichomancy
• The Silicon Valley Tarot
• Horoscopes and cards for all occasions
• Individual Astrological Charts
• Or more general prophecies from stuff from Mogana's Observatory, Prophetic Insights, or
• The Granddaddy of them all, Nostradamus or at The Nostrradamus Repository
