“Bones, Bones roll as you may

Your numbers choose both night and day

Where the power of sun and moon holds sway

To cause these bones to roll my way

Please roll for me this play”


Dice are another way to open the “book of fate”. The “throw” of the dice is an old and deep metaphor for the way individual desire and forces of destiny intersect. The dice shows the interaction between the order of the universe and the individual event.

Three (3) dice are used when divining, producing numbers 3-18. Each individual number has a meaning:

1- favorable, but be careful

2- cultivate your relationship

3- success

4- Disappointments, Sorrow

5- favorable trend

6- uncertain situation

The numbers of “throws’ 3-18

3- unexpected favorable development

4- disappointment, discontent

5- something unknown brings happiness

6- loss in business, gain in spirit

7- delays and obstacles through scandal

8- an unwise course, strong outside influences

9- success in love, reconciliation

10- birth, new beginnings, promotions

11- illness, parting, anxiety

12- good news through a message, seek advice

13- sorrow, unhappy long-term developments

14- a new friend, substantial assistance from others

15- beware! You are tempted into injustice or vice. Don’t do it!

16- good for voyages, set out now

17- change of plan; let yourself be guided by advice from outside

18- Great good luck, happiness and gain in the near future.

so it is 22. Grace changing line 4


22. Grace. Beautiful and brave. Success. Yin gives form to yang; this brings success. Yang shines a light on yin; this makes the design clear. In small matters, it is advantageous to have a goal. Thus the intrinsic beauty of heaven's Way, making the design clear, then stopping. Thus the intrinsic beauty of people. Contemplating the movements of the heavens, the changes of the seasons, the workings of society. Using one's influence to perfect the world. One who follows the Way shines a light on all the standards, without presuming to judge what others do.

Line 4: White-haired grace. A white horse soaring. This is not outlawry; rather an alliance is made. Doubt seems appropriate, but in the end there is nothing excessive or blameworthy.
A haze of beauty. One doesn't want to do anything that might break the spell.

Dice
Needless to say the best time to do this is the calmest part of your day. Place three dice into a small box or dish. Close your eyes. Make a wish. Then toss the dice onto a china plate. If any of the dice should fall off the plate do not count. Add up the number of dots and interpret as follows:

Three: Imminent good luck and a wish fulfilled.
Four: A slight setback will cause disappointment.
Five: A stranger brings much new happiness.
Six: A new blessing comes well disguised.
Seven: You become the victim of gossip.
Eight: Confusion causes unwise decisions don't act in haste.
Nine: Success in love and reconciliations.
Ten: Success in career and finance is imminent.
Eleven: Short-term illness causes you anxiety.
Twelve: Seek advice regarding legal documents.
Thirteen: Self-pity causes delays and hassles.
Fourteen: A new social circle brings excitement.
Fifteen: Follow your intuition about false friends.
Sixteen: A short journey brings profit and pleasure.
Seventeen:A stranger from overseas brings successful propositions.
Eighteen: Happiness, financial success and a rise in status.

Meteors

If you see a meteor shower, ask yourself a quick yes or no question and then count the flashes of light that you see, an even number means YES and an odd number means NO.
You can use the same meanings with a shooting stars.

Birds

Birds can be a big help too. Watch how they fly. If the bird you are watching flies to the right that is seen as a good sign for your day. If it flies to the left you could be in for some trouble. If it flies straight overhead than you will have an average productive day. IF you are watching a flock of birds that Scatter than there will be lots of ups and downs.
I have heard things said by my grandmother like:

- if a bird taps on your window it is a sign that a new soul will be joining your home.( hence a pregnancy sign that a baby was expected)
- if a bird flies in your open window, make up a bed and put a chicken in the pot as company is on the way.
- if you find a feather.. always pick it up and check the color as it has a message for you. (the color chart in the article on Feather Augury covers all the colors she told me about and then some)

Smoke

Gaze into the smoke of incense and ask a question regarding your relationship with another. Watch for patterns in the smoke. Two rings would mean unity of mind and spirit. A heart would mean lots of love and affection. Scales would mean a balanced relationship. Lightning bolts could mean trouble ahead. Look up other symbols in a dream book.

Knife

Take a piece of cardboard and cut it into about a twelve inch circle. Around the border write things such as Yes, No, False Friends, Patience, Good News, Success, Visitor, Love, Tears, and Travel. Grab a kitchen knife and hold it between your hands while focusing on your need for information. Lay the knife in the middle of the cardboard and spin it. The first result will be your answer. Spin it two more times for related information regarding your question.

Buttons (or Stones)

Keep a little pouch with colored buttons in it. You will need, black, white, red, brown and a green one. Concentrate on your questions and then draw a button.
Black means NO.
White means YES.
Red means that Strong Emotion is driving you.
Brown means that the issue is cloudy, you may not know all the facts.
Green means that their is allot of potential in the situation.

[Maat's note: You could use colored stones, like obsidian, moonstone, jasper, brown agate, and malachite for this divination.]

Needles

If you are in a difficult situation and you need to know how many people or forces that oppose you, take 21 new sewing needles and place them in a bowl. Carefully pour water into the bowl. The number of needles that cross each other are the number against you in your present situation.

Another variation for Yes / No questions is if the number of crossed needles is greater than the number that remain uncrossed the answer is NO. If more needles remain uncrossed the answer is YES. If they are about equal than rephrase your question.

Apple Divinations

If a girl stands before a mirror while eating an apple and combing her hair at midnight on Halloween, her future husbands' image will be reflected in the glass over her left shoulder.

If a girl cuts an apple into nine pieces at midnight on Halloween in front of a mirror, then sticks each piece with a knife and holds each piece (one at a time) over her left shoulder, as the ninth piece hits the reflection in the mirror, she will see her future husband.
If a girl peels an apple in one long piece at midnight on Halloween, and then tosses the peel over her left shoulder or into a bowl of water, she will be able to read the first initial of her future partners' name in the shape assumed by the discarded peel.

If a girl peels an apple at midnight on Halloween and hangs the peel on a nail by the front door, the initials of the first man to enter will be the same as those of her unknown lover.
If a group of unmarried boys and girls each attach an apple to a string and twirl the apple over a fire, the oder in shich the apples fall off the string indicates the order in which they will all be married. The owner of the last apple to drop will remain unmarried.

In a group of unmarried boys and girls, each person marks an apple and places it in a large bucket of water, along with unmarked apples. Without using their hands, the teens attempt to take bites out of the apples floating in the water. The teen is fated to marry the person whose apple they bite. Another variation of this custom consists of hanging the apples from strings tied to a tree.

The American custom of apple bobbing does not mark the apples. Whoever snags an apple first will be wed first, and if a boy or girl puts the apple they caught during the game under their pillow on Halloween Eve, they will dream of their intended lover.
For the girl who has many suitors, the apple seed divination is a must. The young woman peels and apple and places a wet seed named for each boyfriend on her cheeks. The seed to fall off last will be her next lover. Variations include sticking the seeds on the eyelids or forehead. The girl can also put the seeds in a heavy pan on the stove. The first seed to pop declares who will be (or is) unfaithful.

For a suitor to declare his bravery for his lady love at a party, the young woman's apple is hung from a string on one side of a pole and a lit candle hung on a string on the other side of the pole. As the pole is spun amid cheers and laughter, the suitor must brave the flame to catch the apple in his teeth. If he fails to do so, the couple will not be a couple much longer.

Water Divinations

If a young girl washes her undergarments on Halloween Eve and, without saying anything, hangs them over a chair to dry, she will (if she is awake long enough to see) watch the form of her future husband enter the room and turn the undergarments. One tale holds that a young girl in Scotland did this and instead of seeing her lover, saw a coffin. The next day she discovered that her lover had died.

If a young woman goes to a lake at midnight on Halloween, and gazes at her image in the water, she shall see her lovers' face reflected before her.

A young girl should take three pails of water and place them in her bedroom on Halloween Eve, then pin her nightdress opposite her heart with three leaves of green holly. If she is roused from a deep sleep by the call of three bears, the sounds will die away, followed by a hoarse laugh. After the laugh ceases, the form of her future husband will appear. I fhe is deeply attached to her, he will change the position of the pails. If not, he will pass from the room without touching them.

A young girl, on Halloween Eve, should dribble hot wax (or hot lead) into a cauldron filled with water to find the circumstances of her intended. If the shape resembles a ship, he will be a sailor, while a coffin means widowhood, and so on.

A surviving party game entails the use of three bowls and a blindfold. The first bowl is filled with clear water. The second filled with dirty water. The third bowl remains empty. The blindfolded person dips their hands into one of the bowls. If the bowl with the clear water is chosen, the blindfolded person will marry a virgin. If the bowl with the dirty water is selected, then her or she will be widowed (or, depending on the game, will not marry a virgin). If the empty bowl is chosen, then the blindfolded person will not marry.
Another version of this game indicates that the clean water means the future partner will be attractive and a joy to be with; the dirty water means the prospective partner is married to someone else; and the empty bowl indicates no partner to be found at this time. An American variation of this game includes apples in the first bowl, nuts in the second and soot in the third. If the apples are chosen the individual will experience luck and love throughout the coming year (or throughout their life). If the nuts are chosen, the person will be quite fertile and have great strength and unchanging luck. If the clindfolded person chooses the bowl of soot, then they will experience loss of love or sickness in the coming year (or throughout their life).

Nut Divinations

A maiden gathers a handful of nuts and names each for a potential suitor. On Halloween Eve she places all the nuts on a grate over the fire. If the nut burns true and does not move, the suitor will be faithful. If the nut moves or pops, the prospective lover will be unfaithful.

A maiden gathers two nuts, one for herself and one for her suitor. On Halloween Eve she places them on a grate over the fire. If the nuts burn well together, then a long marriage and happiness is foretold. If however, one nut darts sideways, the person the nut represents will stray and the other person is advised to seek a different mate.
