Divination is the practice of seeking knowledge or insight about the future or unknown through supernatural means. It is a widely known practice and has been a part of human culture for centuries. There are various methods or examples of divination that have been followed in different cultures. Some of them include: 1. Tarot Reading: Tarot cards are a deck of 78 cards with intricate symbols and pictures on them. A tarot reader uses these cards to gain insight into a person's past, present, and future.
The viewers of Suletta and Guel's second duel across the school watch his impromptu proposal in shock, with Guel's words catching up to him just in time for Suletta to reject him and flee the field. In the Earth House dorm, Chuchu, after originally being excited for Suletta's victory, expresses her disgust over the entire affair being nothing but a "Lover's Quarrel" between privileged Spacians.
Nika regretfully declines as she has to aid Chuchu with her make-up exam, but offers to introduce Suletta to the rest of Earth House who may be free to help. Even Eri s mind was somehow copied onto the electronic keyring Suletta had been carrying, so beyond Saddiq still going to prison everyone is pretty happy.
A tarot reader uses these cards to gain insight into a person's past, present, and future. Each card is associated with a particular meaning or message, and the reader interprets the cards based on their placement and the question asked. 2.
REVIEW: ‘Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury,’ Episode 4 – “Unseen Trap”
In its fourth episode, Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury starts to dig deeper into the themes of class & politics that fuel the Gundam franchise. “Unseen Trap” once again finds Suletta Mercury (Kana Ichinose) besting Guel Jeturk (Yohei Azakami) in a duel. But at the end of the duel, Guel proposes to Suletta – sending her into a panic. She also has to worry about an upcoming test that will showcase her skills as a mobile pilot, especially since she needs two students to act as a mechanic and spotters. And even with the help of Miorine Rembran (Lynn), it’s hard to find the crew she needs due to political tensions.
Once again, the focus shifts from giant robots slugging it out to expanding upon the world of The Witch From Mercury. The Gundam franchise has never been afraid to tackle heavy topics such as the devastating effects of war and capitalism, and that continues here. This time, the divide between Earth’s citizens -labeled “Earthians” – and those who reside on other planets, aka “Spacians”, takes center stage. The Spacians have a major advantage on the world stage due to their ability to mine materials in space, and that’s caused societal and economic pressure on Earth.
The divide is further built on at the Asticassia School of Technology, especially when it comes to Chuatury “Chuchu” Panlunch (Miyu Tomita). A citizen of Earth, Chuchu despises the Spacians and regularly gets into fights with Spacian students. But she also has her soft side – particularly in a scene that reveals more about her home life. It would have been easy just to paint her as the “angry girl”, but in the same way that previous episodes have expanded upon the relationships that other Aticassa students have with their families, she gets more depth. So do the rest of the students, as Suletta learns to navigate the class structures within the school.
Speaking of Suletta, The Witch From Mercury Episode 4 offers the deepest look at her to date.. During her prep for the mobile suit test, Suletta reveals to Miorine the reason she came to Aticassa – and it’s unexpected, yet plays into her character. She isn’t like other Gundam protagonists, fighting to avenge someone or stop a war. She has a genuinely altruistic goal, and despite her timidness, she’s willing to fight for it. Ichinose turns in a series-best performance here, as for the first time in the series Suletta’s voice doesn’t waver while she speaks.
Sunrise continues to make each of the new characters distinct, as their appearances often offer insight into their personalities – or are at total odds with it. Take Chuchu, for example. Her big, poofy pink hair and small stature are totally at odds with her combative spirit. And the same goes for Suletta; even though she is now the best mobile suit duelist at Aticassa, she doesn’t seem entirely comfortable with her new title which includes a spiffy white uniform. I also appreciate the attention to detail in simulating a habitat for space; characters are often shown wearing bulky spacesuits and floating in certain parts of the school. It adds a touch of realism, but not enough to overpower the “giant robot” element of the Gundam franchise.
Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Episode 4 explores the class conflicts between Earth and the rest of the universe while continuing to flesh out its various characters. The reason why Gundam’s been a favorite franchise of mine is that it manages to balance its heavier themes with all of the mech action, and The Witch From Mercury has that in spades.
Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury is available to stream on Crunchyroll. New episodes premiere on Sundays.
Now future games can have the Aerial in twice! Hooray!

The reader interprets the shapes, symbols, or patterns formed by the tea leaves and relates them to different areas of a person's life. 6. Ouija Board: The Ouija board is a flat board marked with letters, numbers, and symbols. It is said to be a tool to communicate with the spirits or the other world. Participants place their hands on a planchette, which moves across the board to spell out messages or answer questions from the spiritual realm. 7. Runes: Runes are ancient alphabetic symbols used in various Germanic languages. Diviners use sets of runes, typically made of stones or wood, to gain insights or answers to questions. The diviner selects a few runes from the set and interprets their meaning based on the symbols associated with each rune. These are just a few examples of divination, and there are numerous other methods practiced worldwide. The purpose of divination varies from culture to culture, ranging from seeking guidance, making decisions, or understanding one's destiny..
