Fortune telling is one of the antiquate crafts guessing by interpretation of remaining marks after drinking a cup of coffee. Most of them have been forgotten. Shapes that appear in the sediment person’s cup after drinking from it are considered to have special meaning in fortune-telling. For residue easy to read prepare a cup of strong coffee. After drinking, some liquids left at the bottom. Take the cup in your hand and rotate it three times clockwise. When you adjust the fluid remains so, that would come to the edge of the cup, then turn it quickly with its face down into the bottom. Leave it in this state to empty the fluid; it is common to count to seven before turning the cup back. Now you’ll have various forms on the cup walls, and have seen as symbols that are meaningful. Each shape has the traditional interpretation. By reading the symbols correctly the reader can interpret and decipher the nature and destiny of the person. The handle of the cup should be directed towards the reader. The shapes at the left side of the handle that appear are related to events in the past. The right side refers to events that appear in the future. Direction of the shapes in relation to the handle is important as well. Those facing the handle represent the approaching events; these backs turned to the handle symbolize travel, departure. Forms which appear near the handle indicate events that will occur close to the house. The cup’s walls are used as time-scale, the edge marks the present and events that coming shortly, the middle of the area to the bottom of the cup indicates bad luck, and forms that appear on it are undesirable.
Like other methods of divination, the reading in sediments requires complete concentration from the reader, intuition and imagination, along with the spread symbols by the usual table, as the shapes used as a focus point of origin. The shapes will not always be clear, and you’ll need to practice and use imagination to see the symbols.
At the beginning of the reading try to determine what kind of picture controls the shapes: good or bad. This distinction will give you logic to reading structure, sometimes the meaning of one form contradict the meaning of the second form also appear in the same symbol, the truth lies in the combination of the two meanings.
