MW13: “Twisted” happens to be right in this argument. This thing about pouring lead or Paraffin is all a fantasy, albeit a harmless one. About the person who went to that lady in Jerusalem who poured lead over someone’s head, and he saw a pair (or pairs) of eyes in the lead. It’s all in the imagination. I witnessed a similar session by someone (an older, benign lady.) who poured melted Paraffin, and that person claimed to see figures of animals and I saw nothing but random formations. It’s all in the mind. When someone believes in this nonsense, they will see any shapes and formations that they want to see. Furthermore. I don’t believe one mainstream Rav will give his consent to something that borders on “Kishuff”, (Sorcery) which is forbidden by the Torah!
