Take a question to your garden and randomly pick a petal off a pansy, without
looking at it. When you examine your petal, the following information may be
divined...
If the petal has four lines in it, it is a sign of hope.
Five lines coming from the center branch is hope founded in fear.
Thick lines bent to the right means prosperity.
Thick lines bent to the left mean trouble ahead.
Seven streaks is consistent love.
Eight streaks means fickleness in either you or those around you.
Nine, a changing heart.

Flowers
Visualize the flower encompassing you. Or write your wish on a piece of
paper and place it under the vase containing the flower until it blooms. To
answer a question, place it beside your bed for a revealing dream.
Wear or burn the essence of the flower while speaking your will. Or burn
a candle beside the flower until it opens.
Throw the flower in a body of water and speak your will. Or soak the
petals in water all night under a full moon and drink it while calling the
powers.
Surround yourself with flowers, or plant it's seed while concentrating
on your intend (obviously this is a long term spell).
