Dominoes .... and *not* talking about pizza outlets or speedy deliveries either

It is speculated that this divinational process was in use in China back around the 12th century, but that is irrelevant actually ... no one can put a definite the birth of cards in divination let alone which came first, the Tarot or the regular deck, but they are still employed as a divinational tool.

There are a few short simple rules to follow ... lie the dominoes face down on a surface and shuffle them while concentrating on your question, then draw one, look at it, reshuffle *all* the dominoes and repeat up to two more times. It is *useless* for a person to draw more than three dominoes for a reading or try another question at that time, the dominoes have a reputation for going erratic and nonsensical if pushed to their limits per se. It is also ill-advised to try again in the same month time frame, yet some say this rule only pertains to one day's time frame though too. *shrug* To draw the same domino twice makes the answer assigned to it stronger.
