This poster explained our method and introduced the divination charts that were presented at the exhibition at the Humboldt University Berlin. It describes the artistic attempt to explore practices of divinations and apply them to health promotion research. Similar to prevention research this ancient practice faced (and faces) the antinomy of its own application: in order to predict future events they have to be predetermined. On the other side in order to make any use of this knowledge the events must not be determined.

Therefore we focused on self – divinations at the beginning of the 21st century: what kind of "informed divinations" are governing the daily lives of our "test persons".
