# Sortes Virgil

> Sortes Virgil is a free web tool for connecting to your higher self. You ask one question, direct it to your higher self or to God, and draw a single verse as the answer. The answer is symbolic: it does not spell things out, but guides you towards what you need to know. It is meant to reach answers the conscious mind usually filters out.

## Pages

- [Welcome – what Sortes Virgil is and how to use it](https://sortesvirgil.com/): explains the idea, the five steps for asking, and how to read the answer.
- [Sortes – the drawing tool](https://sortesvirgil.com/sortes.html): type a question, draw one verse, and copy the question, verse and time of the draw.

## How to use it

1. Be still for a moment and let your thoughts settle.
2. Direct your question to your higher self or to God.
3. Ask one clear question. Specific questions get clearer answers than vague ones.
4. Draw once. Do not draw again for the same question or to confirm an answer.
5. Read the verse.

## How to read the answer

- The answer is symbolic. Look at the main movement of the verse (what grows, shrinks, leaves, arrives or stays), not every detail.
- "How should I act?" questions: take the verse fairly literally, as an instruction.
- "Why did this happen?" questions: read only its general shape.
- If nothing fits, the draw is thin. Leave it and come back later, or ask a different question.
