THAT'S HOW THE BEAN FELL ON YOU!
If you've ever wondered where the term bean tossing (in Bosnian: bacanje graha) came from, now is the time to find out. Namely, a specific, and therefore unique, method of using beans to get a quick answer to a burning question has been known among Bosnian diviners since ancient times.
In this method, the beans are not arranged in three rows, but are literally thrown from the hand onto the floor. And it is precisely from such a practice that the widely known expression "tossing the beans" or " That's how the bean fell on you!"
For this divination it is necessary to separate 38 grains of white beans, one coffee bean, a crumb of bread and one coin of any value. Before it begins, mark one bead with a black marker to represent you in divination.
All of the above is collected in a fist, then a question is asked, and then the grains are blown and thrown on the floor with a light movement of the hands.
Now we are looking at what happened to that marked grain. If it "fell" near a crumb of bread, it is said that "he is lucky", that is, success and fulfillment have been shown. If a coin is closest to that bean, then it is interpreted as a recent money gain, while if it "falls" close to a coffee bean, the interpretation is not favorable. The questioner will be sad, worried, and what he wants will not be fulfilled.

In the picture, you can see that there is a crumb of bread next to the marked grain, which means that the wish will be fulfilled despite the worry and doubt, which is shown due to the proximity of the coffee grain. Above you can see places with one grain each, which is a sign that the questioner will soon travel somewhere.
If the marked grain happens to be positioned among four grains or in a smaller pile, then it is believed that the death of either the questioner or someone close to him will occur. If there are three grains together in several places, then it is claimed that everything will be good, and the questioner will be happy. If it happens that there are several places around where one bean is standing, it is a sign of a journey for the one who consults the beans.
And finally, it is important to emphasize that you cannot ask the same question again if you did not like the result. Accept the answer and accept your fate.
