Spelen met Astrologie - dice and cards for direct interpretation
Astrology has a reputation for being complicated. Too many symbols, too many rules, too many lists. This set from Koppenhol Uitgeverij takes a different approach: you throw three dice and get a planet, a sign and a house. From that you build a concrete reading.
The set contains three twelve-sided dice, a card deck with planets, signs, houses and aspects, and an instruction book that explains how to combine the symbols. You can throw the dice for a quick answer, or use the cards for a more elaborate spread. The materials do what they promise: make astrology tangible.
How it works
Each die represents a building block. One die shows which planet is active, a second which sign colours that planet, and a third in which area of life this all plays out. Together they form a complete astrological sentence.
You can also work with the cards alone. Draw a planet, a sign and a house, and place them side by side. The instruction book describes each card separately and explains how to layer the meanings. Blank cards are included so you can expand the set with your own notes.
The combinations are not vague. The book gives concrete directions: Mars in Virgo in the sixth house gets a different interpretation than Mars in Pisces in the tenth. That makes the set useful for those who want to interpret quickly without first working through a full handbook.
Throw the dice first without a question, just to practise the combinations. This way you learn the symbols before you use them for an actual reading.
Who this works for
This set is designed for beginners who want to learn the basics of astrology by doing. The book explains every symbol but requires no prior knowledge. You can start immediately.
Advanced astrologers also use the set, especially when they want a quick insight at a specific moment. The dice give a random combination that can serve as a daily horoscope or snapshot.

Questions we often get
What is the function of the three different dice?
Each die represents an astrological element: one for the planet (what happens), one for the sign (how it happens), and one for the house (where it plays out). Together they form a readable astrological combination.
Can I use the cards without the dice?
Yes. The cards form a standalone system. You can draw them as you would tarot or oracle cards, and lay them in different patterns.
