Pick two cowrie shells that you're drawn to. Find a flat surface to cast your shells on. Line the surface with a cloth. The cloth will prevent the seashells from bouncing around too much.

Hold the shells in your hands while focusing on your question. When you're ready, toss the shells onto the cloth.

Read the cowrie shells according to the list below:

  • 2 slit sides up: yes
  • 2 slit sides down: no
  • 1 slit side up and 1 slit side down: ask again later
