Dice Divination, also known as Astragalomancy, can be used in various ways due to the different methods of casting dice. Each spiritual practitioner may use multiple or various-sided dice. I’ve even seen some people use 20-sided DnD dice and sets. (I mean, have you seen how unique and pretty some of them are?)

The choice will be entirely up to you, my peculiar friend! I typically cast two six-sided dice and incorporate the meanings of Numerology into the reading. That’s what I’ll be showing you how to do in this article.

History of Dice Divination

Dice Divination has its roots in ancient practices, tracing back to the art of casting bones, also known as knucklebone divination. Back in the day, people would throw small bones, often from animals, to get insights into the future. It’s like the OG of divination!

Over time, this practice evolved, leading to the emergence of various divination methods. In Ancient Greece, diviners sought guidance from the Gods using the knucklebones of sheep (astragalomancy) and by using alphabet boards with suspended rings (similar to Ouija and pendulum boards).

Casting dice is an ancient method of divination called astragalomancy. The dice were originally knucklebones or other small bones of sheep and goats. The skill lies in interpreting the fall of numbers.

How I Practice Dice Divination: A Step-by-Step Guide

In this section, I’ll show you how I use Numerology to interpret the meaning and interpretations of casting two six-sided dice. By connecting numbers with their deeper meanings, you’ll discover the spiritual insights you’ve been wanting to know.

Cleanse Your Dice

It’s important to cleanse your dice before you begin any sort of divination. This will wipe away any negative energy and guarantee your dice are receptive to your intentions and spiritual energy.

Check out this article for a more in-depth description of Cleansing Techniques. The post discusses crystals, but all the techniques still apply.

What To Throw Your Dice On

Selecting the right surface for your dice divination is crucial for an accurate reading. Some spiritual practitioners prefer a white cloth. However, others like to use animal hides or cast directly on the earth; this is believed to enhance their spiritual connection to Nature.

Consider the texture, colors, and fibers of your chosen surface. A soft or textured surface allows the bones to settle in a natural way without moving around too much. You can easily do this on carpet or a yoga mat.

Create a Sacred Space

Creating a sacred space is essential for any type of divination practice. This space should provide a quiet area where you can fully relax mentally and physically. A place where you can fully focus on your reading.

I like to light candles, incense, or some kind of mood lighting. Basically, don’t turn on the big light, lol. I also recommend playing music to create a relaxing energy. I wear headphones and listen to binaural tones or emotional music that resonates with my intentions. Find what works best for you!

Simple Dice Divination Technique

Using two six-sided dice, focus on a question or aspect of your life where you’d like guidance or clarity. Roll the two dice simultaneously and take note of the numbers shown on each die. Add the numbers together to match them with the corresponding Numerology meaning.

For example, 1+2 = 3. In this case, you’d look at the spiritual meaning of the number 3 to receive the answer to your question.

If a number reaches double digits, you’d simply continue adding them until you reach a single digit. For example, 5 + 6 = 10. At this point, you’d add 1 + 0 = 1. This means you’d look at the spiritual meaning of the number 1.

Reflect and Apply

Reflect on the messages gained from your dice roll and their overall meaning. How do they relate to your question? Consider the broader symbolism and align your actions accordingly. Remember to thank the Universe or your spirit guides for their help.

Spend some time journaling your thoughts and emotions. I also suggest recording your questions and answers in your Grimoire. This allows you to look back on these readings later and helps you better understand patterns and meanings received.

Possibly the most recognized symbols of chance are dice. There are various ways of throwing them for divination purposes. One involves throwing three dice. Each is taken in turn and thrown; the number showing when it comes to rest is interpreted accordingly.

It’s time to let go of what no longer serves you; something special awaits to improve your life. Number 9 signifies a powerful and high-vibrational purpose.

The comparative study of divinatory practices is at least as old as the 1st-century-BC Roman orator and politician Cicero’s treatise De divinatione (Concerning Divination), and the convenient distinction there drawn between inductive [based on facts and evidence] and intuitive forms [based on feelings and insights] designates the range.

An intermediate class, interpretive divination, allows a less rigid classification, since many divinatory disciplines do not rely strongly either upon inductive rigour or upon trance and possession.
