What do you know about the fascinating practice of reading tea leaves, also known as tasseography?

This ancient art of divination involves interpreting the patterns left by tea grounds in a cup to predict future events. By understanding the symbolism behind various shapes and lines, one can uncover hidden insights into love, success, travel, and challenges ahead.

Whether it's a star indicating happiness or a snake signaling an enemy, today we are offering you a comprehensive guide to interpreting tea leaves and offers a glimpse into the mystical world of chiromancy.

👇👇👇

Pour your tea into a white cup and drain off the liquid, leaving the grounds in the cup. Shake them well so as to spread them over as much of the surface as possible. They will form groups of imaginary figures, and the fortune-teller must exercise ingenuity to discover in these figures resemblances to familiar things. To the inexpert eye there may be nothing but detached particles of tea, but to the chiromancer it will be easy to find familiar forms.
