In your ethnic group what are some of the typical things people use divinations for?
I assume some would fall under the "hows, whys, to do and not do, etc."

The hows
How do I/they/it...?
How did I/they/it...?
How will I/they/it...?

The whys
Why do I/they/it...?
Why did I/they/it...?
Why will I/they/it...?

The to do

The not do


What are others? On what occasions are they invoked(birth, new building construction, health problem, etc.)?

Note:
BTW, That's not a knock on your reply in any way. As a person with a software background the Idea of using divination as a data base retrieval method is interesting(though I don't think that's what you meant)

Actually I'm not terribly clear on what your first answer was referring to. embarassed
