Read Tea Leaves - Divining by the Cup
To Read tea leaves by the tea-cup
is an amusing & easy way of Divination with
Imagination
A white cup is the best for this purpose as the
grounds of tea or coffee are easier to see.
Pour off any tea or coffee that may be in the
cup. Shake the grounds well about the cup, so
that the leaves etc., may cover the surface of
the cup. Reverse the cup into the saucer, that
the tea or coffee may be drained off, and the
leaves or grounds that remain will be required
to use to tell the fortune.
You should concentrate hard on the cup, and
allow your imagination to have full play, in
order to picture the leaves forming into shapes.
The reader of the cup should allow her thought
to rest upon the person who is waiting to hear
his or her fortune and must not be in a hurry,
as the general appearance must be studied.
Sometimes the shapes are not truly formed but
may have a resemblance to a shape and this can
be sufficient to interpret towards a suggestion
through the fertile imagination of the
interpreter, however, sometimes they are very
distinct and this would form a more definite and
active meaning and open up more discoveries.
The reader must make judgement of what he sees.
Men, women and children are often very
distinctly seen and in these cases it is not
difficult to determine the sexes. However, in
some cases the dark leaves are taken for the
male sex, and the light for the female. The
same with dark or fair people but as already
hinted the ingenuity of the judge should direct
him to speak specifically to distinguish the
facts.
The tea leaves signs in a tea-cup that stand out
and are most prominent are significantly more
important than those that are less clearly
defined.
Divining tea-cups is not a set-art as it is
impossible to lay down any positive or
distinctive rules of interpretation although
each symbol has some general meaning, it must
have a particular significance in regard to each
person. No object or subject has the same
meaning for all, such as to dream of coal means
very good luck to some people but to others,
even in the same family, means quite the
opposite.
Some cups will show no features of interest, or
are totally muddled and indistinct, probably an
interpretation of the condition of the inquirer.
The handle of the cup
represents the house, or the home. Time can be
worked out by the position of the leaves as
Close to the brim the events are immediate. The
distance of the leaves away from the handle,
judges how far away from the home the event
occurs.
Leaves at the bottom of the cup
generally indicates ill fortune. To the left of
the handle can be interpreted as events passed
or opportunities missed or thrown away; the
right side of the handle interprets as the
present and future, usually good, except when
cloudy or thick.
Serpentine lines
indicate roads or ways. If they
appear on their own or in the clear are sure
signs of some fortunate changes at hand;
surrounded by many dots signify the gain of
money, also long life. However, at the bottom
of the cup, or surrounded by clouds, they
signify reverses past or future.
Dots
signify gain by money and must be interpreted by
the surroundings.
Circles
indicate completion.
Wavy lines
show unsettlement.
Straight lines
signify a straight course.
A cross within a circle
indicates imprisonment, detention, hospital or
other forms of enforced restraint.
Dashes
generally indicate enterprises on the way but
time must be given to grow and mature.
