Leviticus 19:31
“Do not go to mediums or consult fortune-tellers, for you will be defiled by them. I, the Lord, am your God.”

Deuteronomy 18:10-12
“Let there be not found among you anyone who immolates his son or daughter in the fire, nor a fortune-teller, soothsayer, charmer, diviner, or caster of spells, nor one who consults ghosts and spirits or seeks oracles from the dead. Anyone who does such things is an abomination to the Lord...”

CCC # 2116:
“All forms of divination are to be rejected: recourse to Satan or demons, conjuring up the dead or other practices falsely supposed to “unveil” the future. Consulting horoscopes, astrology, palm reading, interpretation of omens or lots, the phenomena of clairvoyance...they contradict the honor, respect, and loving fear that we owe to God alone.”

CCC # 2117:
“All practices of magic or sorcery, by which one attempts to tame occult powers, so as to place them at one’s service and have power over others — even if this were for the sake of restoring their health — are gravely contrary to the virtue of religion.”

DIVINATION
“Attributes to creatures the power of knowing, or disclosing the future, whereas the power belongs to God alone; divination therefore is always a sin.” (St. ThomasAquinas)

SYNCRETISM
Split-level Christianity
Tama ba ang katwirang ito?
“Wala namang mawawala sa akin.”
As Catholics we should never seek benefits from spiritual powers outside of God or open doorways by which evil spirits may attack us. Such beliefs and practices violate the first Commandment of God.
