The number four, for the shape of the square plays a role, depicts the female power in man, which he often is not aware of. The dice (cube) is a spatially extended square. Thus, the properties of the square in the dice are extended even more dynamic, because he has to do with the game, with the uncertainty of how the dice (destiny) will fall. This case is important, what number was thrown. If in a dream other person roll dice than the dreamer, then he puts his fate in the hands of others and is therefore forced to align his life according to their specifications.
