Fortune telling on New Year's Eve for the betrothed
Unmarried girls are most attracted to fortune telling by the opportunity to find out something about their likely life partner. Surprisingly, not only single women are trying to find out the future. Often those who already have a lover or fiancé decide to once again check the accuracy of their choice. If you are wondering what kind of betrothed fate has prepared for you, then be sure to use one of the fortune telling methods given below.
By the name of the first person you meet
One of the simplest but most interesting ways to find out the name of your future spouse is through fortune telling with the help of the first person you meet. Just go outside on New Year's Eve and ask the name of the first person you see. Most likely, your chosen one will have the same name, and if you are even luckier, maybe this new acquaintance will become your favorite.
In fortune telling, it is very important to be honest and not adjust the situation to suit yourself, otherwise all efforts will be unsuccessful. Of course, in this case it is difficult to turn anything in your favor, but still do not choose which of the strangers to ask for a name, go to the one that is closest. If there are a lot of people on the street, ask the name of the person who will be the first to pass near you.
This fortune telling can also be used at any other time, but it is believed that on New Year's Eve fortune telling is always more successful than at other times. There are various versions of this fortune telling. One of them is not just to ask the name of the person you meet, but before that to feed him something. This is believed to increase the likelihood of success in fortune telling.
An equally simple and practically effortless fortune-telling for your betrothed is fortune-telling by telephone. There are also several different options here. Here's one of them: dial any number at random. If a man answers you, you will soon be able to get married, and the name of your future husband will coincide with the name of the one who answered the phone. If a woman answers you, then you will not get married in the near future.
If you have any question about your betrothed, ask it before calling. Formulate your thought so that the answer is “Yes” or “No.” Then dial the number at random. If you have done this before for another fortune telling, do not use the same unfamiliar number. Just like last time, the voice in the receiver will be a positive answer from a man, and a negative answer from a woman.
There is also divination for the near future in love terms. As in previous fortune telling, dial a random number. This time, it doesn't matter who answers you, the only thing that matters is what he or she tells you. If you hear “Hello” on the phone, then in the very near future nothing will change in your life. If they tell you “Yes,” rejoice, because very soon your dreams of life with your loved one will come true. When the first answer is “Listen,” then everything depends only on you. If you put in your best effort, you can achieve what you need. If no one answers you, the future is not yet determined. The voice message “Subscriber is out of range” will mean that you are more likely to have enemies than a lover. A large number of problems and trials in love will await you if the subscriber is busy.
Also, you can ask a question that interests you, and then monitor the phone. You will get the answer “Yes” if a man calls you first, but if a woman calls you, it means “No”.
Fortune telling for the betrothed
The simplest and most effortless fortune-telling is considered to be divination in the name of the betrothed using a computer. Just write a large list of male names in a Word file. Let there be thirty or more of them, do not repeat yourself. Then close your eyes and click on one of them with your mouse cursor. Most likely, this is what your future life partner will be called. Just don’t try to figure out where to click to turn the fortune telling in your favor, otherwise you won’t know the truth. Of course, you will be pleased that you got exactly the name you wanted, but it is far from a fact that this is really the correct answer.
To be more honest with yourself, you can do the same fortune-telling on pieces of paper. Write one male name at a time on a small piece of paper, fold it several times, and then mix it all in a bag or some kind of container. Then, without looking, pull out one of the pieces of paper. The name on it must match the name of the future lover. As was written earlier, do not repeat the same thing several times.
New Year's fortune telling for next year
Many men, as well as many married women, use fortune telling to get answers to love questions. For them, however, like for everyone, it is also interesting to find out what turns fate has in store for them. You just need to know this in order to be prepared for any troubles, or to at least change the future a little. The following fortune telling will be able to slightly lift the veil of secrecy for the coming year.
One of the good entertainments for you, if you are going to celebrate the New Year in a company, will be the following fortune telling. Invite each person present to write a wish on a piece of paper. Then put it all together and mix. Now let everyone take a leaf for themselves. What is written in it must come true in the coming year. This activity will not only be an unusual fortune telling, but also an interesting way to wish each other something good.
Also, you can make a lottery with this fortune telling. Prepare small predictions in advance and hang them on the tree so that the contents are not visible. Then invite each of those present to take one of the wishes from the tree. Try to think of something interesting and large-scale. For example, buy or expand an apartment, have a child, and so on. Predictions can concern any area of life: relationships with relatives, work, luck, love, new acquaintances, travel - in general, everything that can come to your mind.
Fortune telling on dumplings
Anything is possible on New Year's Eve! Even what you eat can affect your future well-being, but only if you want it to. To find out what awaits you and your family, cook dumplings. Make most of them ordinary, that is, with the filling that your family prefers, but the rest will be fraught with surprises. If you put dill inside the dumpling, then whoever eats it will experience good health next year. If someone comes across a coin, his wallet will soon be significantly filled. Sugar in dumplings will mean a sweet life, that is, good luck in all areas of activity. Carrots are used to symbolize unexpected and interesting meetings, while pepper symbolizes serious changes. If you eat a dumpling with rice, you should expect good news, a cucumber means success in work and profit, and garlic is an amazing solution to all difficulties and problems. If you want to wish someone strong love or a wedding, put caramel or a ring in the dumpling, respectively.
Money fortune telling
Every person wants to have a good job and decent income so that neither he nor his family needs anything. If you want to find out whether such a future awaits you soon, you can use one of the following fortune tellings.
One of the easiest ways to find out whether you will have money in the near future is divination using water. At midnight, take a full glass of water and place it on the windowsill. In the morning, look at the condition of the water. If there is something floating in it, some speck or hair, rejoice, you will soon have money.
For another fortune telling, you will need a bowl of water and a handful of rice or buckwheat. Pour the cereal into a bowl of water, and then stir it with a spoon to form a funnel. If this results in all the rice drowning, your money situation is not going to change anytime soon. If a large number of grains remain on the surface, serious changes await you in the financial sphere of life. If only one grain remains on the surface, then soon you will have a good opportunity to get rich.
Fortune telling for the new year 2018 for love
Most likely, many single guys, and, of course, girls this New Year will make a wish to meet their soulmate. If you want to find out whether happiness in love awaits you in the approaching 2018, there are several interesting fortunes for your attention.
The morning after the New Year, it is customary to conduct fortune telling using coffee grounds. Be sure to brew your own coffee. As you drink it, talk to someone about a topic that interests you. Then turn the cup over on a saucer for ten minutes, the grounds should be slightly damp for this to flow down the edges.
If the thicket has formed a large, even circle, your problems can be solved very easily and quickly. If the coffee residue looks more like a blot, you will face difficulties in achieving what you want. If almost all the grounds remain in the cup, and there are only a few drops on the saucer, be prepared for trouble.
Stars and dots on the bush will mean the approach of good luck in the New Year. Circles and crosses usually appear as a warning.
Fortune telling using Christmas tree toys
You will have the opportunity to find out your future in company, and also have a lot of fun if you use a fortune-telling game with Christmas tree decorations. Let those who want to know their future blindfold them. Then let it spin around its axis several times. One of the friends should lead him to the Christmas tree, and then the person with his eyes closed will have to remove one of the toys.
If the decoration is white, then 2018 will not bring any changes in your love life. A black toy is a harbinger of unhappy love in the near future. Anyone who comes across a pink, or red, or orange toy in 2018 can safely count on passionate feelings. Green will mark new love, while purple and blue will be used by someone whose relationship is soon to cool a little. Gold, silver and yellow colors, in turn, will mean the appearance of a wealthy admirer.
Before performing fortune telling, make sure that all the above-mentioned colors are present on the tree, otherwise the fortune telling will not be true.
Ask all your guests to bring their own hand-carved snowflake. You can also do this all together, right before midnight. Let them also write on each of them their expectations for the coming year. Then, immediately after the chimes and the first toast, everyone should go out onto the balcony and simultaneously release snowflakes. After that, go outside and see how each of them fell. If the wish is on top, it will come true, but if it is below, then it will not. In addition, let everyone throw away their own snowflake. You should not carry out this fortune telling if you live above the third floor. Most likely, your snowflakes will simply get lost. Or you can tie a small weight to a snowflake with a string.
On New Year's Day we tell fortunes for marriage.
Since ancient times, on New Year's Day, girls gathered together and told fortunes about marriage. Nowadays, if girls are going to bewitch, then they are also concerned about the issue of marriage.
Fortune telling by book
Take any art book with any number of pages. First, open the book to the page whose number corresponds to your birthday. Write down the first letter on this page on a piece of paper. Then open the book to the page of your birth month. And for the third time, open the book with the page number on the date of your father’s birth. All three letters that will be placed first will represent the initials of your future husband's name. There will be a high probability of success if the book you chose for fortune telling is about love. This spell can be used not only on New Year's Eve.
To find out how long you will have to wait for a marriage proposal, there is fortune telling with a ring. Jewelry for the ritual must be made of precious metal. You should not use other people's things, only if it is the engagement ring of your relative or friend. Tie the ring to your hair and lower it into an empty glass. Count how many times it hits the walls. This number will correspond to the number of years you will have to wait to get married. For the success of this fortune telling, do not forget to remove any jewelry from yourself before casting your fortune. Also, you should let your hair down and comb it. It's also good to wash your hair first.
Card reading
Use one of the easiest fortune telling on cards if you want to tell your fortune for love. To do this you don't need any skills, just a new deck of cards that has not yet been used for games. Shuffle it thoroughly. Then you can ask questions that concern you out loud, but only formulate them so that the answer is “Yes” or “No.” Then turn over the first card. If her suit is heart or diamond, then the answer to your question is yes. If you saw a pike, the answer is negative. The cross suit card will mean “Maybe. All in your hands". Pay special attention to the fact that you can ask anything, even if it has nothing to do with love problems.
New Year's Eve is not only fun and relaxation with loved ones and friends, but also a night of magic. It is during these hours that you can find out your future and conduct fortune telling for the New Year. You can guess with friends or alone - it doesn’t play a big role. The main thing is to believe in miracles and magic, to look into your future with optimism and confidence!
The shortest fortune telling
You can try to find out what the coming year will be like with the help of simple divination. One of the fortune telling for the New Year is as follows: take four queens from a deck of cards: diamonds, clubs, spades and hearts. Mix the cards and place them face down under your pillow. When you wake up in the morning, pull out the first card you come across.
What does the lady you get mean:
- clubs - expect new acquaintances and hobbies;
- worms - your love this year will become completely mutual;
- diamonds - improvement in financial situation is expected;
- peaks - the year will not be easy, expect a major event in life (not necessarily unpleasant).
There is another way of simple and short New Year's fortune-telling. Light a candle and let the flame burn. Say the following words in a whisper:
"Money. Love. Marriage. Luck".
If at one of the words the candle light sways sharply to the side, it means that this is exactly the event that will happen to you in the new year 2020.
New Year's fortune telling for love
Our great-grandmothers also used fortune telling for love to find out the future: they used fortune telling for a betrothed, a handsome guy, and pregnancy. You could tell fortunes both at home and on the street, in a cheerful group of girls or alone.
For marriage
One of the rare ancient fortune telling on New Year's Eve on cards. Take a deck of new playing cards and mix them thoroughly. Take out the cards one by one, count out loud to 13. If the thirteenth card is a jack or a king, you will definitely get married this year.
- Jacks of diamonds and jacks of hearts promise a cheerful, cheerful groom; club or spades - a serious young man with big plans for life.
- Kings of dark colors promise a groom older in age, but already wealthy in life.
- Kings of a light suit, hearts or diamonds, predict that their chosen one will move to another city or country.
For pregnancy
Before celebrating the New Year 2020, take a basin and fill it with cold water. Place a burning candle on a small saucer in the middle of the basin. Then leave the bowl with the candle for the whole New Year's Eve. In the morning, pay attention to the saucer with the candle: if it has moved to the left, then you should expect an addition to the family. If it remains in the middle or has moved to the right, pregnancy is not expected in the new year.
For a romantic date
This New Year's fortune telling is best done alone so as not to frighten away your luck. On New Year's holidays, prepare a sheet of paper and a pencil. Before you go to bed after the celebration, draw a silhouette of the guy or man you would like to meet and spend time with this year. Visualize the young man: what he will look like when he first meets you, what he will wear, what hairstyle he will have.
Fold the sheet of paper four times and place it in a black bag. The package with the picture should be hidden under the pillow at night. In your dream you will definitely see an unfamiliar guy. Depending on how it looks, you can judge the future:
- the man smiles - your expectations this year will be fully met - you will meet an excellent partner and close friend;
- an unfamiliar handsome guy among other people is a successful online acquaintance;
- a stranger treated you to a cafe or restaurant for free - meeting a generous person will change your life;
- a guy with another girl - unfortunately, a new friendship will bring disappointment;
- you don’t see the face of your betrothed, but he is standing next to you - an absolutely random acquaintance on the street promises an unexpected turn in fate;
- an unfamiliar guy is aggressive towards you - your romance with a new passion will be too stormy and will frighten the people around you.
To be faithful to a loved one
Place an even number of cutlery on the New Year's table. Even if some of them turn out to be superfluous, it’s okay - let them remain on the table. After the holiday, when cleaning the table, check the remaining number of knives and forks. If their number is also even, your boyfriend is faithful to you. If not, unfortunately, there is a flighty traitor next to you. This is a fairly truthful fortune-telling, so think a hundred times whether it is worth knowing the truth about your betrothed.
For the future
This fortune telling for the New Year is best done not on New Year's Eve itself, but in the morning upon awakening. It is best if your windows do not face a noisy road, but into the courtyard. Open the window. The first sounds from the street that you hear on January 1 can predict a lot about your future that awaits you in the new year:
- the child laughed - the year will bring good luck in business, you will achieve your intended goal;
- the child cried - pay attention to the state of your health, you should listen to your body properly;
- the dog barked - new acquaintances that will be beneficial in the future;
- the cat meows loudly - problems with money are possible this year, beware of large expenses;
- a woman’s voice – at work and in the family circle you should not trust gossip and rumors, this can lead to trouble;
- a male voice or several male voices - this year you will experience mostly family matters, no major unpleasant events are expected.
For money and prosperity
This New Year's fortune telling will tell you how your affairs with money will go this year. Half an hour before the chime, count the bills in your wallet. Remember the general number, for example, 5,300 or 2,200. Add to them the number 2020 - the date of the New Year, the year of the Rat.
If the amount received contains the number “2”, the White Metal Rat will bring you a grandiose gift associated with an increase in wealth. This year you should expect a good increase in your salary or a pleasant gift from Lady Luck: winning the lottery, a small inheritance, etc.
Fortune telling for the New Year so that your wish comes true
On New Year's Eve, make a secret wish, ask the mistress of the year - the Rat - to make it come true this year. Write your wish on a piece of paper, fold it and put it in the pocket of your clothes or handbag with which you will celebrate the New Year. On New Year's Eve, take it out and hold it in your hand several times, then put it away again.
The next day, January 1, take out the sheet. If any stains appear on it, your wish will definitely come true.
Another New Year’s one is called “Recounting Windows”. Make a wish. Go out into the yard on January 1 at 4 am. Count all the windows you see that still have lights on. If the number of counted burning windows turns out to be even, you will be lucky and your wish will definitely come true this year.
And a very simple and unpretentious fortune telling called “Grain of Rice”. Before you go to bed on New Year's Eve, wish that your most secret wishes come true. Go to bed. In the morning, immediately when you wake up, take out a small handful of rice. Pour it onto the table and count the grains. An even number of all grains promises you great luck and the fulfillment of your wish.
Special fortune telling for the year of the Rat
The full-fledged mistress of this year - the White Metal Rat - sometimes likes to be cunning and embellish events, but never deceives her pets. Therefore, be sure to ask the symbol of the year about the most secret things.
Draw on a piece of paper a symbol of the past year - a pig or a pig. Remember what the past year was like - sad, filled with bustle or, conversely, cheerful and joyful. Take the saucer, bring it to the wall and burn it with a candle. It is better to turn off the light first.
By the shadow on the wall formed by burnt paper, you can find out what the next year of the Rat will bring to you.
- person (girl, guy, etc.) - you will soon meet a good friend who will always support you;
- home - as much attention as possible to your loved ones, this year you need to take care of their comfort;
- a key, one or more, is one of the brightest and most successful signs. Portends huge changes for the better;
- cross - the illness of one of the family members will bring a lot of trouble, but everything will end well;
- mountains, forest - get ready to go on an exciting journey;
- ring - this year you will get married or meet a loved one;
- horse - your year will be successful if you work hard;
- wolf - beware of evil rumors and gossip;
- pig - events from the past will pull you back, it’s worth dealing with old matters and problems;
- dog - loyal and reliable friends will be by your side in difficult times;
- rat - the mistress of the New Year 2020 will patronize you all year, so do not be afraid of anything and boldly accept changes in your life - they will only bring great benefits.
The rat loves cheese, so the next fortune telling will be related to this tasty and healthy product. Surely you will have a cheese plate. Do not put some of the cheese on the table, but put small pieces in an old saucer and take it out into the yard. Place a saucer of cheese near the house. In the morning, check the contents of the saucer - if it is missing, it means that you will have great luck all year in the future.
It is generally accepted that fortune telling is particularly accurate and reliable during the Old New Year and Epiphany. And although the Church condemns any attempts to find out the future with the help of divination and magic, people have been guessing and continue to guess. The unknown and mystery have always attracted people, so during these holidays many people rush to tell fortunes about the future or perform a ritual to attract money and good luck. Well, girls, of course, wonder about their betrothed.
Sputnik Georgia presents what rituals were performed on the Old New Year and Epiphany and which of them were the most popular.
Fortune telling
In the old days, Christmas evenings were dedicated to divination and fortune-telling; accordingly, everyone who wants to look, according to the traditions of their ancestors, into their future, can do this before the Epiphany, on any evening, including on the night of the Old New Year.
In the old days, fortune telling was done on everything that came to hand - on rings, mirrors, beans, shoes, rice, onions, brooms, apples and even on fence boards, which is not difficult to do in our time.
The girl, with her arms outstretched, tried to grab as many boards in the fence as possible, and then counted them - an even number indicated imminent marriage, and an odd number indicated loneliness.
For the betrothed
It is very easy to find out the name of your future husband - you just need to go out into the street and ask the first man you meet to tell him his name.
On Old New Year and Epiphany, girls could not only find out the name of their betrothed, but even see his face in the mirror. To do this, in the midnight darkness, they sat down between two mirrors, lit candles and began to peer into the reflection, hoping to see their betrothed.
Girls also wondered with a mirror on the street. Standing at the crossroads with your back to the month, looking in the mirror and wishing: “Betrothed, mummer, show yourself to me in the mirror.” As some claim, the betrothed appears in the mirror after some time.
People considered fortune telling on the night of the Old New Year to be the most truthful, and they said that it was at this time that you could see your future spouse in a dream.
In particular, the girl let down and combed her hair, then put the comb under the pillow, calling with magical words to her future husband: “Mummer, come comb my head.”And you could find out what kind of betrothed it would be by fortune telling with card kings. To do this, on the night before the Old New Year, before going to bed, you need to put cards with images of kings under your pillow, and in the morning, without looking, pull out one card.
In the old days, people believed that whichever king they got, so would the husband: the king of diamonds - the betrothed one would be desired, the king of hearts - young and rich, the king of clubs - military, and the king of spades - old and jealous.
Where to look for a betrothed
During Christmas time you can also find out the place where to look for your betrothed. The following fortune telling will help with this: put several multi-colored buttons, preferably the same size, into an opaque bag.
Tune in and ask the question: “My dear, where are you?” and then take one of them out of the bag. According to the button, the answer will indicate where you will meet your destiny.
The meaning of buttons: simple black - at work, green - in the store, brown - with friends, white - on a trip, yellow - in transport, iron - he will be in the military, with rhinestones - in the cinema, theater or village club, blue - by chance street.
Ancient fortune telling
One of the most popular fortune telling for the Old New Year and Epiphany for young girls who wanted to know their future was “inviting the betrothed to dinner.”
Before starting fortune-telling, the girl in an empty room covered the table with a tablecloth, put down the utensils in addition to the knife and fork, and said: “The betrothed-mummer, come to dinner with me.” Then she locked the windows and doors and waited alone for her betrothed.
The howling of the wind and blows on the windows and door indicated the approach of the groom, and then he appeared, sat down at the table and began to entertain her with conversation. The girl, without moving, was supposed to silently notice facial features and clothing and not answer questions.
Then, suddenly perking up, she asked point blank: “What’s your name?” The betrothed called his name and took something out of his pocket. At that moment the girl should have said: “Forget me!” - and the groom simply disappeared.
In the old days, people used to tell fortunes on Christmastide using a candle. They took a deep bowl and filled it halfway with water. On the edges of the bowl, pieces of paper were fastened on which questions were pre-written, such as “will I get married this year,” “will I have luck,” and so on.
Then a small candle was attached to a small wooden plank and lit so that the flame reached the edge of the attached pieces of paper. They lowered a board with a candle onto the water and looked. The prediction was that piece of paper with a question that the candle would burn.
Other fortune telling
The potential bride or groom, with their eyes closed, takes out a grain from a canvas bag of beans and examines it. If there are no spots or chips on the grain, then they will soon have a wedding. And if there are spots, then their number indicates how many years to wait before the wedding.
Fortune telling on things for the future was popular among girls. They took a felt boot and put several different objects there. For example, a piece of sugar, meaning a happy and comfortable life, a ring - marriage, a scarf - a handsome husband, a rag - a poor husband, an onion - tears, a coin - a rich husband, and so on.
They shook the felt boots and, without looking, took out the object that came to hand first, and used it to predict fate.
The girls and their friends were guessing using a thread. They cut the threads to the same length and set them on fire at the same time. Whose thread burns out faster than others will marry first. And if the thread immediately goes out or burns only halfway, then, alas, you are not destined to get married.They also guessed from the book. They took a book and, before opening it, wished for the page number and the line at the top or bottom. Then the book was opened and read in the hidden place. What was read was interpreted in accordance with the wish made for marriage, prosperity, future, and so on.
In the Old New Year they also used fortune telling. On January 13, before going to bed, they wrote 12 wishes on separate pieces of paper, folded the sheets neatly and put them under the pillow. Waking up, in the morning they pulled out three of them, which were sure to be fulfilled in the new year.
Some take fortune telling very seriously, others with a bit of humor, as one of the pastimes during the holidays. And we can only wish you good luck and happiness in the coming Old New Year.

New Year is a magical holiday on which various miracles happen. To get “silver” water, three days before New Year’s Eve, place silver items in a vessel with clean water and leave them in a dark place. This liquid is not only seasoned with silver, but also has magical properties.
Fortune telling on twigs
For this action you will need:
- 7 splinters,
- 7 branches,
- “silver” water in 7 small cups,
- Red thread.
At Midnight, light 7 candles and place them in a circle, placing a bowl in the center. Place the twigs behind the circle of fire and read the following words:
“Behind seven lights, behind seven trees, in seven waters is my long-awaited destiny. As the lights go out, as the water evaporates, my destiny will come, my betrothed will appear. And this will happen no later than seven months. Let it be as I said.”
The candles should burn to the very end and the liquid should evaporate, even if it has to sit for several days. Collect the twigs, tie them with thread and burn them, but for this they must stand. If the twigs in the fire fall quickly, then you are destined to get married within a year. If they stand for more than seven seconds, it means that you are not destined to get married this year.
Fortune telling for several girls
Prepare silver items (as many as the young ones), water, open containers, according to the number of fortune tellers. First, you will need to prepare some water for each girl, pour it into bowls (in equal quantities), put personal jewelry in it, and leave it for a couple of days. Then, on New Year's Eve, everyone should sit opposite their bowl and read to themselves:
“My betrothed, I’m waiting for you, come to me quickly, be with me for many years, come to me, come before others, come for marriage!”
At night you need to place the containers under the bench and remember the liquid level. In the morning, immediately, without washing, look under the bench: whichever girl has evaporated faster is destined to get married before all the others.
Prediction for love
You will need a glass of water, an empty glass, and a thimble.
Before you start, about getting married or meeting your love within a year. You need to pour water from one glass with a thimble into another, without losing a drop. The girl who does this without spilling will definitely get married this year.
New Year's fortune tellingfor marriage
On New Year's Eve, as the chimes strike, a young girl must go to the window, pick up a full glass of water and, in 12 strokes, make exactly 3 circles around the room. If the water does not spill a drop, then she is destined to get married this year.
Fortune telling for marriage with objects
Often, in order to find out your future, to find out who your betrothed is, you use various objects of everyday life.
At midnight, as the clock strikes, pour champagne onto the mirror, then place it on the table. Burn a piece of paper on a plate on which to write: “What awaits me this year?” Rub the ashes in your hands, shake them onto a mirror, press them lightly with your palm, and then blow them away. The interpretation will be as follows if:
- rings - it means there will be a marriage this year;
- wreaths - this year you will either make an acquaintance or get engaged;
- crosses - crossroads, disagreement;
- stripes, long and straight - a road, a business trip, a journey awaits, but not a vacation;
- waves - predict adventures, romantic encounters;
- many points - watch your health;
- breaks and cracks - you are doing too much harm to yourself and your destiny, think about it.
Such a mirror is stored for a year, wrapped and hidden.
Predictions from a coniferous foot
At midnight, pick the first paw you come across from a spruce tree, the size of the ring finger of your right hand, and count the number of needles on it. An even number predicts imminent marriage, an odd number predicts the opposite.
Fortune telling for the betrothedon the water
Prepare: a bowl of water and your hair. If you already know the name of the man you like, then when the chimes strike, you must repeat it exactly 12 times, adding “My betrothed-mummer” to the name.
Then take a bowl, pull out a few hairs from yourself and throw them into the bowl, shaking it slightly. If a pair of hairs unite within a minute, you too will unite this year as a couple. And if not, then there will be no marriage. In both cases, it is best to burn the hair.
Fortune telling for the year of the Rat
For fortune telling in the year of the White Metal Rat, you will need an object depicting the symbol of this year. It is best to purchase a small figurine in the store, depicting a small, nimble animal with a tail. Ideally, the symbol of the year will be made of silver, but any other material will do.
After midnight, take a new deck of cards and remove four kings from it. Mix them well. Place the rat figurine at the head of the bed and lay out two king cards, face down, at the top and bottom of the figurine. Then go to bed.
Check what happened in the morning.
