Of course, anyone with regular diviner special ability, or a
subset ability (e.g. card divination, astrology, etc.) that can
be used for readings, or who is psychedelic drug enhanceable and
is enhanced, or who has wide range magickal special ability,
can also obtain healing circle prescriptions and advise
criminals (plus give good advice to others), but would not
be able to obtain the "rubber stamping" and popthrough details.

No, it seems that Goddess has given more time for criminals to
voluntarily follow their healing circle prescription. As of
now the only consequences that are on are a guilty
conscience and a money/etc tug and/or delivery, but
I hope that the remaining consequences including
charisma modulation and warning signs will come on
within the next six hours. If you are interested in my
progress, which I deem more likely if you notice effects,
see the thread “gradual progress” on alt.religion.druid .
