Most unusual divination method.
Here's an interesting question. What's the most unique form of divination that you have either heard of or personally experienced?
The oddest form of Divination that I have ever heard of would be Tyromancy, divination by cheese. In the Iron Druid series by Kevin Hearne, the main character consults several times with a woman who interprets the patterns created as milk coagulates and ripens into cheese. The method sounds interesting, but not ideal if you need an answer soon.
The most unique divination that I've tried myself would have to be Random Object Divination, aka The Junk Oracle. I love the fact that it is completely intuitive, with no pre determined meanings. Also, yourl Junk Oracle becomes more and more personal as you add in objects that are meaningful to you. There was also the time I went out for a walk and took photos of random things that I thought were interesting. Then I used to resulting images to answer people's questions, which had all been asked while I was away on my walk so that the questions couldn't influence what I had photographed.

Re: Most unusual divination method.
Never heard of Tyromancy, that is an interesting form of divination for sure. Yes, I like the thought of the Junk Oracle, as it is completely intuitive--and I am more of an intuitive reader myself, so that is appealing to me. Also, the idea of yours--taking pictures and using them to answer people's questions. Thats pretty cool!
For me, I think one of the most unusual is the reading of feet and toes and how accurate it is. I find that rather funny tbh. Not sure I'd want to be a foot reader myself, but I am finding myself looking at peoples feet more now, and seeing things like if their 2nd toe is longer then the first or if the first 3 toes are of just about equal length, etc.
One of the oddest ways (I think) that I used for divination was the patterns of things in the kitchen and bathroom floor. I remember in A.T. we were doing this form of divination just to see if we could get something. I did do this and saw a pattern that looked to me like a woman yelling at someone--and I felt it was her partner, only later to hear from a friend who had earlier had a huge fight with her husband. When she was pouring out her thoughts to me on it, all I could think of was how I had seen it--and in fact, the woman in the tile made me even think of this woman--it sort of looked like her. But, I don't do that on a regular basis--reading floor tiles.
But, it just goes to show you that you can divine with anything! And, that makes me believe that it means that we all have this ability inside of ourselves. We most likely could come up with the correct answers if we could just quiet our minds and allow them to come--but the form of divination we use, is really just a tool for helping us. It is a gift that is really inside each and everyone of us.
