The Evil Spirit of Divination that controls the Occult Third Eye

It is clearly written in Sacred Scripture as a strong command and warning from God:
"'Do not turn to mediums or seek out spiritists, for you will be defiled by them. I am the LORD your God." (Leveticus 19:31)
And clearly the penalty is grave:
"If anyone goes for advice to people who consult the spirits of the dead I will turn against him and will no longer consider him one of my People." (Leviticus 20:6)
 
And as example of not to follow, Scriptures made mention of King Manasseh who God punished severely for his evil and idolatrous life:
"He practiced divination and magic and consulted fortune-tellers and mediums. He sinned greatly against the Lord and stirred up his anger." (2 Kings 21:6; 2 Chronicles 33:6, Samuel 28.3-25.)
Why is the anger of the Almighty raised up against those who consult spirits? Why does it defile us?

To understand what exactly consulting spirits entail we need to understand what DIVINATION is all about.

The seeking after knowledge of future or hidden things (including from past events) by inadequate means is divination. The means being inadequate they must, therefore, be then supplemented by some power which is represented all through history as coming from gods or evil spirits. In Catholic understanding, all forms of divination are from the evil one. (St. Thomas Aquinas, S.T. II IIae, q.95; CCC 2116, 2117) Hence, the word divination has a sinister signification. As prophecy is the lawful knowledge of the future, divination, its superstitious counterpart, is the unlawful. As magic aims to do, divination aims to know. Divination is practically as old as the human race. It is found in every age and country. 

In the Philippines, among the commonly recognized practitioners of divination include the mantatawas (augurers), manghuhulas (fortune-tellers), espiritistas (mediums) and the water witch. Everywhere divination flourished and nowhere, even today, is it completely neglected.
