Fortune telling for love

— Fortune telling by matches

Finding out about the feelings of a loved one using matches is considered one of the most accurate and simple methods. During fortune telling, fire has been treated since ancient times as the most powerful element, endowing it with divine power. Take two matches from a new matchbox and fasten them vertically at a short distance from each other. Think about which match will symbolize a man and which will symbolize a woman. Then light them and watch the combustion process: if the matches lean towards each other, then this means mutual feelings of the intended couple; if one of the matches has not changed its shape, remaining in a vertical position, then this indicates the indifference of the one it symbolizes; A quick deflection of the match in the opposite direction from the other will indicate a negative attitude.

— Fortune telling with bulbs

The bow will help you find out the name of your betrothed. To do this, on the night before Christmas, take as many bulbs as you already have gathered candidates for the role of spouse, and write a name on each one. Then you need to lower them into a container of water, saying: “Oh, onion, whisper, who will be the groom?”. All you have to do is wait to see which bulb will sprout first. Actually, the one whose name is written on it will become your husband.

— Fortune telling with a comb

New Year's fortune telling with a comb will help you see your betrothed in a dream. To do this, before going to bed, slowly comb your hair with a clean comb, saying: “Mummer, come to me dressed up.” Then go to bed with the comb under your pillow.

Fortune telling by wish

— Fortune telling by grains

Make your deepest wish, close your eyes and try to imagine it. Then take a handful of grains into your fist and squeeze it tightly so that they do not spill. Count the number of grains collected. If the number turns out to be even, the wish will come true! Odd is still early.

— Fortune telling by cat

If you have a cat in your house, he will help you find out if your wish will come true! To do this, think about what you really want and call the cat. Watch carefully which paw the cat steps across the threshold. If it’s right, your wish will come true!

— Fortune telling on paper

This is the simplest fortune telling for a New Year's wish. In order to find out whether your wishes will come true, take 12 pieces of paper and write one wish on each. When you wake up, take out any three pieces of paper - whatever wishes you choose will come true.

Fortune telling

Through the water in the mirror

This fortune telling will tell you what the coming year will bring to you. To do this, take a decanter filled with water, a mirror and three lit candles. Place candles around the decanter and look through the water in the mirror. What you see in the mirror is what fate has in store for you!

— Patterns on glass

Another simple way to reveal the secret of the future is to freeze glass. To do this you will need a small glass or mirror. Pour water over it and take it out into the cold at midnight (you can put it in the freezer). Wait until the glass is covered with patterns and return to the warmth. And now we begin fortune-telling by pattern: circles - next year you will live in abundance; Christmas tree pattern - a lot of work awaits you; square patterns - difficulties await you next year; triangles, rhombuses - luck and success will be favorable to you...

Fortune telling specialists, or more simply put, fortune tellers, can engage in this practice without regard to prohibited or permitted days. The only thing that matters is the mood of the cards and other fortune telling tools. And if they fall, this is a sure sign that fortune telling should be postponed to a more favorable moment. We can advise beginners to start guessing on Monday or Friday. These days, intuition is more developed, and interpretation will be much easier for you. The lunar fortune telling calendar for 2016 can also help you well. The lunar day will tell you what can be done and what is not advisable.

The question of when Christmas fortune-telling takes place is quite easy to answer. It all begins, as it happens according to traditions in Rus', on Christmas Eve before Christmas, that is, on the night of January 6-7. It is believed that this is one of the most powerful nights of the year, when fortune telling will predict the truth and good spirits will want to lift the mysterious veil of a person’s fate.

On the other hand, during the Christmastide period, which means from January 8 to January 18, there will be favorable nights for fortune telling, and special attention should be paid to the night of January 13 and the night of Epiphany Christmas Eve on January 18. These are also days, like Christmas Eve before Christmas, with strong energy. Although, here it should be emphasized separately that the entire Christmastide period has the strongest energy and this is the best period during the year to actively guess and receive truthful answers to your questions.

When answering the question about when you can make fortunes before and after Christmas, you can safely highlight the period from January 6 to January 18. However, Christmas itself must be excluded from the series of these dates, on which fortune telling is not carried out, because this is considered a great sin. Truthful.



Interesting! You need to tell fortunes for Christmas if you have a strong desire and you really believe in rituals. Otherwise, the spirits may be offended and fortune telling will not end well. Also, certain rituals must be carried out according to strict rules, which were formed by the reptiles and have survived in full form to the days of our modern times.

Of course, many unmarried girls, and they are the ones who are most interested in predictions, are interested in the question of telling fortunes about their betrothed at Christmas. Fortune telling can be done from January 6 to January 18 at least every night, excluding Christmas itself. But in order for the spirits to help with the answer, you also need to be able to guess. Below are common rituals that have helped many girls see their betrothed and their future destiny.

Fortune telling for the betrothed

With mirrors

There are very different options for how you can tell fortunes about your betrothed; consider the example of mirrors. The most mystical, but true and truthful ritual. Although, if you tend to get scared by little things, then it is better to prefer simpler methods of fortune telling. Why is this ritual scary additionally because, according to the rules, it is required to be carried out completely alone and by candlelight.

Advice! In Rus', they tried to carry out exactly this fortune-telling in a non-residential building or in the attic. Because if an evil spirit appears instead of the betrothed, then it can take up residence in the room, so it is dangerous to carry out such fortune-telling in living rooms.




The girl needs to let her hair down, remove her belt and all jewelry, unfasten buttons and fasteners so that energy can flow freely throughout her body. Wipe the mirror. Place the second mirror, smaller in size, closer to you and make sure that the mirrors, reflected in each other, form a mirror corridor. Light a wax candle between the mirrors and ask the betrothed to come.

With water

If fortune telling with mirrors seems too scary and serious, do not despair, because there are other ways. For example, the betrothed can be seen using water and a mirror. Water must be poured into a container without edges or glass patterns. There are no requirements for water; it can be taken simply from the tap.

True, you again need to guess alone and at night, by candlelight. Place a mirror on the table and prepared water in front of it, light candles and look through the mirror at the container with water. They say that you can see the image of your betrothed there and immediately you have to shout “Care me.”

With egg

An ordinary chicken egg will help you find out something about your future husband during the Christmastide, when fortune telling is considered as truthful as possible. The advantage of this ritual is that it is not necessary to carry it out alone; you can do everything with girlfriends in an easy atmosphere.

When and how to carry out fortune-telling at Christmas and during the Christmastide is clear, the only question that remains is how exactly to interpret the signs and whether to believe them. Personally, it seems to us that we must believe in everything good and convince ourselves that it will happen. If fortune telling predicts something bad, then don’t take it seriously and just throw such a prediction out of your head.
