Ever since I started publishing articles about the traditional Bosnian divination technique of fortune-telling with 41 beans, I have been receiving occasional emails asking questions about this method of divination, as well as requests to publish more articles. So, this time, I will describe combinations that can immediately reveal whether the person we are romantically interested in is single or already involved in a relationship or marriage.
SIGNS OF INFIDELITY
One of the clearest signs that “something is wrong” in someone’s relationship or marriage—that there may be a third person in the form of a lover, or even a legal spouse—is when the beans in the second row form a 4-4-4 pattern. In the classical interpretation of bean divination, this number always represents difficulties, problems, a blocked situation, hard times, a crisis…

Therefore, when such a combination, or something similar, appears in a love reading, we are faced with an extremely suspicious situation: a partner who is still married, or a person who is prone to infidelity, problems, and creating confusion. In such a situation, there are many lies present, and an effort must be made to uncover the truth.
THE END OF A RELATIONSHIP OR MARRIAGE
When a relationship or marriage is approaching its end, one carefully observes whether there are signs of such an event in the arrangement of the beans. The first indication is the presence of six or eight groups of four beans, although this is not a strict requirement, because in this picture we actually see seven groups of four beans each. However, another sign appears when the beans become “watery,” meaning that groups of two beans predominate.
This image provides one such example. Literally speaking: the romantic relationship or marriage becomes like water—fluid—and happiness, destiny, and togetherness disappear; they drift away, and the partners go their separate ways.
