Dice For Minimum Divination
Instructions
Construction of a white cardboard dice wide 1.5 cm : draw and then cut out the figure above, fold along the cube edges and tabs, shape the dice and glue the tabs inside. To render the white dice a minimum divination tool write on the 6 surfaces 6 words (may also include symbols or signs), these will be 6 words agreed within a relationship, chosen with someone with whom you have discussed a lot of things about the world so that individual words have become a shared code. Example (sample dice): the words of this first dice were contracted 20 years ago with a German friend (S.U.) whose improper use of Italian made sometimes her language a
mysterious place: NATURA PISCINA MENO PIÙ GALINO MATERAZA
words that have given quite reliable results over the years in the small or minimal divination. This is obtained by asking the dice a question and then rolling it once or several times depending on the nature of the query. This is the reading code:
NATURA indicates natural or wild environment, literally or metaphorically, PISCINA indicates artificial environment or captivity, the dependence of issues from strict social rules, PIÙ indicates an increase, MENO indicates a decrease, GALINO indicates a confusion of gender, and disorder, but also freedom, in food issues, MATERAZA indicates issues that take place in bed, may concern sleep or other activities
