It is logical to assume that they were already interested in other predictions. In particular, many of them wanted to know how many children they would have, or what would be the financial well-being of the family.

As a rule, on Christmas Eve they ask exactly these questions.

So, to find out how many children you will have, you need to sit on the floor in the bath and say the following phrase:

"Forces are bathing, I will show you a parental place, and I expect the number of children from you."

-But if you find three leaves, this is a good sign that promises a fortuneteller not only three children, but also happy marriage, as well as immeasurable love from the spouse.

Christmas money divination

As mentioned above, divination in the bath is considered the most accurate. Therefore, with the help of a bath broom, you can also guess for money and financial well-being.

Then turn around to look at the position of the broom on the shoulder. If it is located with leaves towards your face, it promises you wealth in marriage. If the leaves are directed to the right, then most of the money will go to business development and other business endeavors. But if the leaves are directed to the left side, then the money can go to your opponent or go to the side.

If the leaves are directed upwards, this means that, most likely, a poor life shines on you, or fate will send a spouse to a spender.


In fortune-telling on Christmas Eve, you can believe, but you can not. However, one thing is for sure, that this particular period of the year is considered the most cheerful, kind and joyful. Remember that the most accurate and true divination Those are the ones you truly believe in.

Fortune telling on cards

Strictly speaking, for those who are seriously engaged tarot card predictions or on an ordinary "playing" deck, there are no prohibited and permitted days. There is only an inner feeling associated with the mood of the cards.

An experienced tarot reader, for example, can tell if the cards are currently set to “speak” about the fate of one or another significator or prefer to “fill in the fog”.

It can also be determined that fortune-telling will not work if the cards suddenly begin to fall on the table or on the floor during the shuffle. For a professional fortune teller, such incidents just don’t happen. Here it is worth putting the deck aside and returning to fortune-telling at a more favorable moment.

For some tarot readers, such days as Easter, Christmas and other church holidays are forbidden. But this, as they say, is a matter of taste and religiosity. Moreover, fortune-telling generally does not correlate well with church concepts about faith in God.

If you are new to mantic practices, then first try to stick to a certain “schedule”. It is believed that best moment for fortune-telling on the cards - the night of Friday the 13th. Taste the mood of this period, and you will understand whether this is your time for predictions or not.

However, other Fridays are also great for fortune telling - just like Mondays. These two days are closely associated with the Moon and Venus - the two planets "responsible" for intuition . So you will perceive the interpretation of the cards on a subconscious level, which means you will choose the most accurate of them.

In addition, beginners and those who rarely pick up cards should remember that a certain entourage helps to tune in to receive predictions. Do not neglect the creation of the atmosphere, so it will be easier for you to penetrate the mystery of the future.

The number of candles is up to you. The main thing is that they give you sufficient lighting and at the same time do not distract. For someone, in order to tune in to fortune-telling, one candle is enough, and someone has determined for himself the exact number for each individual fortune-telling. Most often, this knowledge is achieved in a practical way, or a fortuneteller intuitively chooses as many candles as he needs for comfortable work.

The art of interpreting natural symbols and silhouettes

Historically, many divination systems have evolved from folk signs, observations. The signs of the elements were interpreted and comprehended. That is why divination is so closely connected with the natural world. Natural materials are often used as props.

For example, to predict the future from coffee grounds, you need to drink a cup of natural ground coffee, and then knock it over on a saucer so that the mass spreads along the walls and forms patterns. The resulting images are then interpreted. Most popular symbols:

  • silhouette of a person - a date;
  • tree and plants - barriers, quarrels, longing and travel;
  • animals and birds - anxiety and slander;
  • houses and buildings - profit and prosperity.

Fortune telling on eggs is another way related to the interpretation of symbols. Eggs are taken only homemade. To know the future, warm water pour the protein, and then interpret the shadows, signs and movement of matter.

  • protein sinks to the bottom - trouble, loneliness;
  • the squirrel remains in the center and takes on the shape of the figures (the church - for the wedding, the ship - the journey and return of a person, as well as other symbols and meanings).
  • if a pregnant woman gets out from under the hen and breaks the egg, the sex of the embryo will match the sex of the child.

Unusual, scary and beautiful divination

Divination with a mirror is the most mysterious and scary view predicting the future for unmarried girls, it takes courage. They tell fortunes at midnight, alone, by a large mirror, stripped naked.

  • Two candles are placed in front of the mirror to illuminate and cast shadows, as well as a smaller mirror to form an endless "corridor".
  • When a girl sets up mirrors, you need to say: “Betrothed, mummers, show yourself!”.
  • When the image of the groom appears behind him in the reflection, then you should see all the details of his appearance and shout: “Church this place!”. The vision will disappear and fortune-telling will end.

Divination with a ring also helps to see the appearance of the future husband. The wedding ring is placed in a glass with a smooth bottom, ¾ of water is poured, and then looked at by candlelight in the center of the jewelry. The face of the betrothed should appear there.
