Domino Divination

By Lilith Silverhair

Most of us have a set of dominoes around the house. Few people know, though, that dominoes were used as a divination tool in China as far back as the twelfth century B.C.  Back then, there were thirty-two tiles abd the dots were both red and black.By the end of the eioghteenth century, dominoes had gotten as far as England, and the colored dopts were dropped and the blank tiles added. Today's sets consist of twenty-eight tiles, in pairs from blank/blank to six/six. (Some sets have more) Here is simple emthod of domino divination and interpretations for the tiles.

Divination Method

Lay the dominoes face down on the table in front of you. Concentrate on your question for a moment before selecting the three or four tiles that speak to you from the set. Interpret them according to the list below.

 Blank / Blank
This is a time of openness. New energies are coming into your being from the great void of the universe. Allow yourself to receive these energies. They will lead you in a new direction that will bring you possibilities far greater than you have dared to dream.

 Blank / One
A vision has begun to take focus in the physical world. This is a time to be very mindful of the vision's expansion. Consciously participate in the unfolding of the next step to ensure it is what you truly desire.

 One / One
This is the perfect synchronicity of two beings working together toward one cause. There is no stopping the focused vision of the one / one. If this relates to something you are now working on or wish to begin, proceed without hesitation. If this relates to other people in your life and how you are interacting in their manifestation, charge past or get out of the way! You can not fight the one / one.

 Blank / Two
There is a time period ahead that will bring the opportunity for many new partnerships. This domino represents new friendships, however, it's primary message is that a true life mate is on the horizon. Open your heart to this energy.

 One / Two
The two become one with this domino. It is a time of integration with Higher Self. Of understanding the nature of your true being and what you are on the planet to do. Knowledge is coming to you about your past incarnations. Use this to further your integration.

 Two / Two
This domino represents a time of coming together in pairs. These pairs could be mates, however, this is also the domino of twin and multiple births. It represents a bond that is beyond the physical world, and beyond any limitations of mortal thought. It can also manifest in one's relationship to the Creator, but this is not it's primary focus.

 Blank / Three
From the void you are being offered the chance for a deep integration of the whole self. Body, Mind, Soul is one perspective. Greater still is Soul, Spirit (Higher Self) and God the Father. Take this opportunity now. It could be a long time before it returns.

 One / Three
This combination is an opening of the psychic gifts that are available to you from Higher Self. Knowing is a gift directly from your God self. Clairaudience (hearing), Clairsentience (feeling) and Clairvoyance (seeing) are all available to all of God's children. Seek the one that feels the most comfortable for now. Your gifts and their strengths will make themselves known to you.

 Two / Three
This domino represents challenges to the workings of your physical life. It is work, whatever your work is to you, whether it be housework or a business makes no difference. It shows a need to bring order into your work space. It shows a confusion of intent that allows random energies to come forth. Center yourself and determine a clear intent and plan. Place this plan into action and the issues will resolve themselves.

 Three / Three
This is the domino of clear thought. If you have felt clouded about an issue what you need to know is being made available to you. If there is a decision that needs to be made this is a clear sign that the time is at hand to make it. The path will be obvious. You may receive the knowing with such absolute clarity that you find yourself wondering how you could have ever been clouded.

 Blank / Four
You are embarking upon a time of balance. This will be a remarkable new thing. All the balance of aspects that you have desired are being offered to you. If you think you are already in a good state of balance, you are in for a pleasant surprise.

 One / Four
This brings forth the divine nature of balance that exists within all the creations of the heavens and the Earth. The need for balance is great and the process can bring about great turbulence within you. Know that these painful challenges are beneficial and are a healing force. All is well, ride out the storm.

 Two / Four
This domino is about exponential growth. This growth level is available to you now, in this moment. Do not let opportunities pass you by. Seek to learn all that comes to you. If something comes to you that you feel is not true then you simply have a deeper understanding of truth. Learn everything and make your own discernments.

 Three / Four
This is the time to carry on with the spiritual work that has been put on the back burner while you have been taking care of the physical world aspects of your life. The world is in need of your teachings and life experience. There is much to be gained in your growth by sharing the path. If you have been wavering over the reactions that others may have to the new expression then it is time to break the chains to these people.

 Four / Four
This domino shows the influences coming to you from every direction. You can not live life or make decisions based on the opinions and attitudes of all these other people. Among them they can not even agree upon what you should do. You must turn only to your true self, the Godself within for the answer that you seek. Tell these other people you have heard all the opinions you care to hear.
