Oracle of the elements

Learn to interpret the message of the Stones,
 where intuition becomes the oracle, and every element speaks.

Unveil the Diviner in you

There is a knowing that lives beneath words, beneath logic. An ancient intelligence braided into the bones of the earth and the breath of the wind. This is the knowing that divination calls forth. Not to predict the future, but to pierce the veil, to deepen connection and to remember the sacred conversation between spirit and self.

During the Oracle of the Elements: Casting the Stones virtual training beginning October 22, you will not simply learn divination, you become it. You’ll work with the elemental stones of Fire, Water, Earth, Mineral & Nature (based on the divination system taught by Elder Malidoma), where each element becomes a doorway, a mirror, a messenger of the Other World.

What Awaits You Inside This Training

 Oracle of the Elements: Casting the Stones is delivered over 10 live online video sessions, each carefully designed as a complete arc, opened and closed with intention, and woven with teaching, practice, and real-time group discussions. You will be part of a dedicated cohort, learning not only through your own experience but through witnessing the perceptions and interpretations of others.

By the end of the training, you will be able to sit down with your stones, cast them with intention, and interpret what unfolds with clarity. You will understand how to read elemental imbalances in real-life situations, how to translate symbolic patterns into grounded insight, and how to guide both yourself and others through moments of uncertainty with a steady, ethical presence.

The Sacred tools you'll work with

This Is the Beginning of the Diviner's path

The full cowry shell divination system is intricate, layered, and powerful. But mastery is not built by learning everything at once. It is built by developing precision, trust, and skill over time. This is why we first cast the stones. They are the foundation of the divination taught by Elder Malidoma, the north star of the cowry shell divination system.

Working with the elemental stones allows you to focus on the core skills that this divination system requires without becoming overwhelmed by the complexity of over two dozen pieces on the mat. With the foundational stones, you learn how to truly see: to recognize patterns, sense imbalance, and understand how the elements are communicating. You will know how to hold structure, and trust what you perceive by the time you immerse in the in-person Diviner’s Intensive at the East Coast Village (by invitation only).

During the 5-Day intensive, the work expands into the full cowry shell divination system, where multiple layers of insight begin to reveal themselves. It is also where you will engage with the Kontomble, in personal ritual work, and step into initiating elemental ritual interventions (aka prescriptions).

If you already feel called to the deeper diviner's path, your journey begins here. If you know you are meant to sit in that circle, start preparing your hands, your perception, and your presence by casting the stones.
