Answers your conscious mind usually filters out.
A quiet tool for reaching your higher self — and hearing what it has to say.
Sortes Virgil gives you access to answers you normally can't reach, or can only partly reach, because your conscious mind filters them out.
You ask a question, direct it to your higher self or to God, and the answer arrives as a verse. The answer is symbolic. It won't spell everything out, but it will guide you towards what you need to know.
Five steps. One question.
Keep it simple. The clearer the question, the clearer the verse.
- 01
Be still
Take a moment. Let your thoughts settle before you ask.
- 02
Direct your question
Address it to your higher self or to God.
- 03
Ask one clear question
One thing at a time. Specific questions get clearer answers than vague ones.
- 04
Draw once
Draw only once for each question. Don't draw again to confirm or to get a better answer.
- 05
Read the verse
Take your time with it before deciding what it means.
Above the mist, the answer is already there.
sees past the filter
A verse, not a verdict.
The answer won't name your situation. It shows a movement — something slowing, opening, leaving, returning. That movement is the message.
Here is an example of a question, the verse that came back, and how it can be read.
Example question Dear higher self, how should I approach this conflict at work?
The river did not argue with the stone. It went around it, slowly, and by spring the whole valley had taken a new shape that no one had planned.
Don't push against it. Go around, patiently — the situation will reshape itself over time.
Reading the answer
The answer is symbolic
Look at the main movement of the verse — what grows, shrinks, leaves, arrives or stays — not at every detail.
"How should I act?"
Take the verse fairly literally, as an instruction.
"Why did this happen?"
Read only its general shape.
If nothing fits
The draw is thin. Leave it and come back later, or ask a different question.
