A 12-inch diameter circle is drawn in white chalk onto a board or table that the throws of the dice will made upon. Any dice that happen to fall or roll outside of the chalk circle are not considered when adding up the totals, but they have their own set of meanings though. A die landing outside of the chalk circle is a potent of sharp words that will be said, if the die lands on the floor it is said it is a forewarning of violent quarrels..

Three dice are used and shaken well in a box with the left hand. The dice are interpreted by the total of the numbers shown. Mondays, Wednesdays, or days when the atmosphere is extremely charged with electrical forces (i.e. stormy weather), are not considered to be favorable occasions for consultation as the omens would be erratic and inaccurate. The best conditions of all is consulting is said to be in the calm of the evening, about 2 hours after sundown. Strict silence is felt to be essential during the shaking and throwing.

If the same number, regardless of denomination, should turn up more than once is thought to signify an
advent of important news. To the throw the dice so that one lands on the top of another is said to be a
warning for women foretelling deceit of an admirer (for men it also presages use of caution).
