yeah maybe not the best analogy hehe
oracle dice you usually roll a handful of them together, each with its own set of faces, and the reading comes from the interactions between the die more then the dice themselves, you typically would use at least 3 in a reading. in my later reading i did 6 dice and got stuff like the journey face, the performance face, the water face. each has its different meanings and they all relate to each other, as well as their location relative to each other and the mat.
they are very fun and interesting, "The publishing goblin's oracle dice" if you want to search up more!
and yeah, i do usually heavily weigh if it is worth my health to protest, im a very opinionated person and would attend many if i was able to, but i am physically not. however due to this being a direct impact on me and my community, a direct attack, it seems right and worth it.
in america, the way disabled people got their rights was the capitol crawl. where many people including disabled folk literally crawled up the steps of some american monument to dramatize how bad the accessability standards in america were. i am feeling like here in aus we need something similar. that feels like the only way we will get their attention.
a tiny but similar thing happened just yesterday in parlement in fact. during the voting on the bill, the greens (our only good party but a minor one) all stood at the back of parlement with the only disabled politican, as there is no accessible seating in parlement. there is no way for the disabled politican to actually get to the parlement floor. so the greens stood by them as part of represnting the inequality this bill would introduce.
but yeah, its all interesting and good/bad are definitely just descriptors. in the end, the sacrifice dice doesn't mean bad things inheritly. in fact in a normal reading it can mean many good things, its just more the thoughts i was thinking at the time and the chance that i had dropped the dice the night before and it had lannded on that face, only to be discovered when i was thinking about what had happened.
