Quote:
Dice and their forerunners are the oldest gaming implements known to man. Sophocle reported that dice were invented by the legendary Greek Palamedes during the siege of Troy, whereas Herodotus maintained that they were invented by the Lydians in the days of King Atys. Both “inventions” have been discredited by numerous archaeological finds demonstrating that dice were used in many earlier societies.
The precursors of dice were magical devices that (people of Biblical times) used for the casting of lots ... The probable immediate forerunners of dice were knucklebones (astragals: the anklebones of sheep, buffalo, or other animals), sometimes with markings on the four faces. Such objects are still used in some parts of the world.
(Encyclopaedia Britannica).


I think the answer is to use knucklebones. Invented to cast lots, Satan no doubt interfered and decided to use them for gambling. So provided you never use your knucklebones for gambling, you should be able to safely use them for casting lots. Once they're used for gambling, they're contaminated by Satan, and will not give you the answer you seek.
