More about pregnancy fortune telling. Using a card deck

Good afternoon everyone. There is a very old and old tradition- to guess at Christmas. After all, this way you can look into the future and find out about the future, the future groom, your desires, etc.

Fortune telling, of course, is best on the night of January 7 and during the Christmastide period. It is believed that these days the predictions are the most accurate and very often come true.

Christmas fortune-telling is called Yuletide. They take place during the Christmas season, which lasts 2 weeks, starting from Christmas Eve (January 6) to Epiphany (January 19).

The most powerful day for predictions is considered to be Christmas Eve - the night from January 6 to 7. And you can predict the future on maps, mirrors, candles, paper, water, books and much more.

Today I want to provide you with the most popular methods of fortune telling. And since it’s mostly girls who want to know their future, there will be a lot of predictions about marriage and love.

But before you proceed directly to the rituals themselves, first familiarize yourself with the rules of Christmas fortune-telling.

How to tell fortunes for Christmas?

  • The room where the action will take place must be quiet. Sounds and noise can break the thread of contact with the Universe;
  • During the ritual, you cannot cross your arms and legs, as the information will then not be received in full;
  • During the ceremony, remove all rings, belts and other items that are tied to you. Hair should also be let down;
  • No lighting other than candles should be used indoors;
  • Don’t forget to take off your pectoral crosses and remove all icons from the room;
  • Choose an “unclean” place to perform actions. Previously, the most successful place was considered to be a bathhouse.

Please note that if you do not believe in mysticism, then all predictions will be false.

Now let's try to get answers to the questions that concern you most. Let's tell fortunes for the coming year.

Let's find out what life will be like

Various items are placed in a deep opaque container, for example a piece of ash, sugar, a ring, an onion, etc. You need to take turns pulling out an object, whoever pulls out what will be in the future. Ash is a bad life, sugar is sweet life, ring - getting married, onion - for tears, glass - happy life, Golden ringRich life and so on.

Let's learn about fate by the shadow

A very simple and popular method. You need to take a sheet of paper and crumple it thoroughly. Then put it on a saucer and set it on fire. When the sheet is almost burned, use a candle to display it on the wall. Consider the resulting shadow and try to recognize your future in it.

Find out about the lives of relatives

In the evening, during dinner, you need to walk down the street and look into your neighbors’ windows. If you see heads sitting at the table, it means that the relatives will all be alive. If you don’t see the heads, then misfortunes may happen to your relatives.

Let's find out what awaits us in the future by wax

Melt the wax in a mug, pour milk into a saucer and place it at the threshold of your apartment or house. Then say the following words: “Brownie, my master, come to the threshold to drink milk and eat wax.” And with last words pour melted wax into milk. Next, carefully observe what is happening. If the wax hardens in the shape of a cross, then some illnesses await you in the new year. If the cross only appears, then in the coming year your financial affairs will not go too well, and in your personal life you will be overcome by troubles, but not too serious. If a flower blooms, you will get married or find a loved one. If you see an animal, be careful: you will have some kind of enemy. If the wax flows in stripes, roads and crossings lie ahead of you, but if it starts to appear like stars, expect good luck in your service or in your studies. If a human figure is formed, you will gain a friend.


Let's find out about the coming year by eavesdropping

You need to stand under your neighbors' windows or under their doors and eavesdrop on their conversations. If they sort things out and break dishes, then you will have a very “ happy year“, and if you hear silence, then your year will be calm and harmonious.

Let's learn about the future with the help of an egg

So, take a fresh egg. Make a small hole in it. Carefully pour the contents into a glass of warm water. When the protein has curled, look at the resulting shape. Depending on the shape, guess your future. The sight of a church means a wedding, a ring means an engagement, a cube means a coffin, a ship means a business trip (for a man) or the return of a husband from a business trip (for a woman). But if your protein sinks to the bottom, then there will be a fire in the house.

Let's learn about what interests you from the book

Everything is simple here. Take a book, preferably with spiritual content. Without opening it, mentally ask yourself the question you want to answer. Next, guess the page number and line number at the top or bottom. Then open it and read it in the hidden place. What you read is your answer to the question.

Let's learn about the future from coffee grounds

Make yourself some coffee and drink it. Next, cover the cup with a saucer and tip it up and down three times. Your thickening should spread along the bottom, and various shapes will appear. Use them to guess. See the outline of a dog - for friendship, the outline of a forest - for wealth, the cross - patience, and the wreath - glory. If you see a staircase, it means you will achieve your desired goal, the shadow of a person means a pleasant date, and the shadow of a house means abundance. The contours of a church or a bell mean returning home, but a deer will indicate the fast road.


Learn about making important hair decisions

Suitable for female. In windless and moonlit night cut off a section of your own hair. Burn them on the fire and watch how they burn. If your hair lights up all at once, it means changes for the better await you and there will be success in any planned endeavor. If they burn and smoke, then there will be changes in life. If your hair burns brightly and for a long time, it means you will get something big. But if they smolder for a long time and do not light up, then this is a sign of trouble, a warning of troubles or illnesses.

We find out about our desire by the nut shell

Pour water into the basin. Glue paper strips along the edges of the pelvis. Write events on them in advance, for example, wedding, money, trip, work, etc. Take half a shell walnut and secure the stub of a church or personalized candle in it. Light the candle and push the shell towards the middle of the pelvis. Next, the shell should float to one of the strips on its own. Which strip the “ship” sails to is what it expects in the future.

However, the dream will come true if the paper strip, upon contact with the shell, lights up from the candle flame.

Find out about the future using a knife

Take a wooden round board or cut out a circle of cardboard with a diameter of 30 cm. On the sides write answers to frequently asked questions: yes, no, caution, love, guest, meeting, tears, travel, etc. Now place a regular kitchen knife in the center of the circle and mentally ask a question. Rotate the knife around its axis three times. Whatever message the tip of the knife points to will be the answer to your question. Moreover, one of the three messages is the answer itself, and the other two are the cause or consequence of the predicted event. If after rotation the knife stops between two messages, then the fortune telling should be repeated again.


Christmas fortune telling at home for your betrothed in a dream

The most popular predictions are related to the event of marriage for girls and any information about their betrothed. Therefore, let's look separately at the rituals about the future husband that are performed in a dream.

1. Eat something salty for dinner. And when you go to bed, say the following words: “Betrothed, mummer, come to me, give me a drink.” So, in your dream the groom will come and give you water.

2. Even before going to bed, you can whisper the following words: “Monday with Tuesday, Wednesday with Thursday, Saturday with Sunday. Friday is only alone, just like I am alone. Friday - holy mother, turn to me, whoever loves me will dream of you.” In a dream, the appearance of your betrothed will appear.

3. From a new deck of cards, select 4 kings and put them under the bed, while pressing them down with your shoe (heel) and say the following words: “The betrothed is a mummer, I’m waiting for you dressed up. Come, show yourself, marvel at me.” Go to bed and wait for a prophetic dream.

4. While walking down the street, break off one small branch each from a poplar, aspen and birch tree. At home, tie them with a thread pulled from the clothes you are wearing. Before going to bed, hide this bouquet under your pillow and say the following spell 3 times: “Balideff, Asalbi, Abumaleff.” The one you dream about is your betrothed.

5. So you can put soap, a comb and a belt under the pillow. And to go to sleep, say the words: “Betrothed, dressed up, come to me - wash me, comb my hair and girdle me.”

6. Place a bowl of jam under the bed and say the words: “I have all the sweetness.” You will dream about those suitors who have the most serious intentions towards you.

7. As you lie down to sleep, say the words: “I lie young on the Zion Mountains, 3 holy angels are in my heads. The first one sees, the second one will tell, the third one will predict my fate.” Remember the dream you had in all its details and look up its meaning in the dream book. You will be given a hint about whether you will get married this year or not.

8. If you are spending the night in a new place, then perform the following ritual. Before going to bed, say: “I’m sleeping and lying down in a new place, the groom is dreaming about his bride.”


9. Place a mirror, a comb and a sprig from a bath broom under the pillow. Before going to bed, read the invitation: “Betrothed, come and take a steam bath in the bathhouse.”

10. Pick a bouquet of 12 different herbs (this must be done in advance). Make a wish for each branch different meaning(get married, be alone, meet your future husband, receive several marriage proposals, etc.), you can even write them on pieces of paper and wrap them around twigs. Place the bouquet at the head of the head and say the words: “Betrothed, come for a walk with me, collect grass in the field.” At night the groom should dream, and in the morning pull out any twig at random and use it to judge what will happen during the year on the “love front”.

11. Place 2 glasses of water by the bed, and place a wooden spoon or spatula across. Say the words: “The betrothed is a mummer, come to me, take me across the bridge.”

12. Take 3 laurel leaves, write on them the cherished names whose help you will turn to during the fortune-telling process: Ananias, Azarius, and Misail. Hide them under your pillow. Lie down so that there is a window in sight. Say before going to bed: “I go to bed from Monday to Tuesday, looking and looking at the windowsill. Whoever is destined for me, let him appear in my dreams.”

13. Place a spruce twig under your pillow and say before going to bed: “I go to bed on Monday, I put a spruce tree at my head. Betrothed, dressed up, come dressed up.”

14. Write the name of the young man on a piece of paper, kiss this word with painted lips so that a mark remains. Place the piece of paper on a small mirror and put it under your pillow. Go to bed and say the spell: “From Monday to Tuesday I look at the windowsill, let anyone who dreams of me dream about me.”

15. Before going to bed, place four kings under your pillow and say: “Who is my betrothed, who is my mummer, I will dream about him in my dreams.” If you dream about the king of spades, the groom will be an old man and jealous, the king of hearts means young and rich, the king of the cross - expect matchmakers from a military man or businessman, and the king of diamonds - from the desired one.


Fortune telling for New Year and Christmas using glasses

The following method allows you to find out about your future using glasses or shot glasses. The ritual process is not difficult and even a novice fortune teller can handle it.

Check out this ritual.






To tell fortunes with glasses, you need to take 6 identical piles and fill each one with: sugar, salt, water, vodka, put a ring, any millet.

Blindfold each participant in turn. She must choose one pile. Depending on which pile she chooses, that’s the year she’ll be waiting for. Sugar - sweet boundless year; salt - tears; water - a normal year; vodka - there will be a lot of festivities; ring - wedding; millet - the year will be harmonious.

How to tell fortunes for the Christmas holidays using tarot cards

Card predictions are also very popular, especially using a deck of tarot cards. With their help you can look into the future; learn about feelings; get a push, a sign; learn to understand the world and yourself.

I have prepared for you classic methods tarot card layouts:

  • Layout of 12 houses;


  • Layout for 23 cards;


  • Alignment for the future;


  • Relationship breakdown.


In addition to a deck of tarot cards, you can also use a regular deck, but you need to take a new one.

  • On Christmas night, place the King of Diamonds under your pillow and wish upon the person you want to marry. Whatever you dream about this night will come true.
  • Take a new deck and shuffle it well. Next, take out one card at a time and say the words: “For yourself, for home, for heart, for soul.” If you have chosen all the red cards, you are lucky, luck will not turn away and will be with you all year. If everyone is black, you need to prepare for serious obstacles. This year better plans don't build. If you come across both black and red cards, it means a changeable future. Cards “for the heart”: ace of hearts - great love; ace of spades - blow; diamond - wealth; Crusade - a good career.


Fortune telling for Christmas 2019 for love

And for those who are lonely and really want to meet their soulmate, the following predictions. With their help you will find out whether you will find love in the coming year.

  • If you are lonely, but really want to meet your true love, then at midnight go to the nearest church and walk around it 12 times. This ritual will destroy loneliness and help you find love.
  • Take a large container of water. In this case, take water in the morning and put it in the room for the whole day. In the evening, add a handful of ash, sugar and salt to the water. Mix everything carefully. When the liquid “calms down”, throw your hair and the hair of the man you are fortune-telling into the water. Place this container on the window and leave until the next morning. In the morning, look at the hair: if they are connected to each other, then this man is your destiny and soon you will marry him; if the hair is located on different sides of the container, then separation cannot be avoided. It's a bad sign if one of the hairs sinks. This suggests that the one to whom it belongs will fall ill in the near future.
  • Take the container with water outside. Unmarried girls should stand around this container. Each person should pick up several twigs or twigs. Next, one of the girls should go to the container and throw the rods into the water, then stir the water. When the water calms down, you need to look at the result. If a girl was destined to walk down the aisle this year, then the first letter of the betrothed's name was formed from twigs. If the branches floated chaotically, then this indicated that this year the girl would remain unmarried. Every girl should perform this ritual and learn about the wedding and her betrothed.
  • At Christmas, a girl must set the table in an empty house. Place all utensils on the table except forks and knives. Then close all the windows and doors, sit opposite the place prepared for the guest and say the following words: “Mummer, come to me for dinner.” In this case, the girl should be alone in the house. Next, wait. Do not forget that you can only illuminate the room with wax candles. When your betrothed comes to you, he will make a sound: a sharp gust of wind, a knock on the door or window. At the same time, you must always sit and not get up from your seat. Next, the spirit will appear before you in the guise of the one you marry. He will talk to you and ask questions. Under no circumstances should you answer them. Sit calmly and don’t react in any way, just remember your appearance. Then suddenly ask the question: “What’s your name?” The guest will name the future groom. Then the spirit will reach into your pocket for the gift, do not look at the gift and under no circumstances accept it, otherwise the spirit will take you with it. Therefore, as soon as the guest reaches into the bag, say: “Cheer me” and cross yourself. The spirit will immediately evaporate.


  • Perform the next ritual at night before the first star appears in the sky. Go outside and stand at an intersection. Think of the name of your groom and mentally imagine his image. Now draw a circle around yourself using chalk. Stand in the center and listen. If you hear singing, laughter, joyful conversations, then this year you will go down the aisle with the man you wished for. If you hear sobs, screams, quarrels, then you will not become a wife this year.
  • Perform this ritual in the company of friends. Take a spool of thread, a candle and a ruler. Cut a thread for each participant. Moreover, they all must be the same in length. When each girl has a thread, then at the same time approach the candle with the threads and at the same time set the threads on fire. Whoever's thread burns out first will go down the aisle. If someone’s thread does not burn out at all, but goes out, this means that her wedding will not be soon.
  • Take a matchbox and two matches. Insert matches into the sides of the box so that they are facing each other. The first match is you, the second is your desired specific man. Light the matches. If during the burning process both matches turn towards each other, this indicates that people are destined to be together. If this does not happen, then the couple may break up.


Christmas fortune telling for a wish under the pillow

Now let's tell fortunes again for the coming dream. For me, these are the best ways to find out about your future.

If you are planning to tell fortunes using a pillow, then follow these rules:

  • It is necessary to loosen and comb your hair thoroughly;
  • remove all jewelry, especially gold;
  • Charms should be done in splendid isolation, so that nothing distracts attention;
  • You cannot talk to friends/relatives about the supposed fortune-telling - this may negatively affect the result;
  • the pillow should be moved to the opposite side, the sheet should be rearranged with the bottom side up, and the nightgown should be put on inside out;
  • If possible, 3 days before the ritual, adhere to fasting (do not eat fried, fatty, smoked foods).

So, before going to bed, write your wishes on 12 pieces of paper and hide them under your pillow. Go to bed. Get up early in the morning and take out three sheets of paper one at a time - these wishes will come true.

Instead of wishes, you can write men's names and roll up pieces of paper. In the morning, take out one piece of paper and read the written name. This name will belong to your future husband.

But the predictions are not related to sleep, but also about desires.

Take a handful of grains left hand and clench your palms, then say your wish out loud. Then count the number of beans in your hand. If there is an even number of grains, the wish will come true, if there is an odd number, not now.

If you have a cat in the house, then use his help. Make a wish and call the cat to your place. If he crosses the threshold of the room with his right paw, the wish will come true, but with his left paw, it will not.


Also, to find out about your desire, you can use the following rituals:



Fortune telling for Christmas on Christmas Eve

As I said before, the most exact date in order to find out about your future, appears on the night of January 6-7. Therefore, if you succeed, then try to tell fortunes on Christmas Eve.

Here are some more interesting rituals:

At midnight, take a knife and go outside with it. Go to the snowdrift and start cutting the snow with a knife, while saying the words: “Damn, damn, don’t be silent, damn, damn, tell me what kind of husband I’ll get, will I have to laugh or cry?” Then shut up and listen carefully to the dogs barking. If you hear an angry bark, it means your husband will be strict and gloomy. If the dog barks cheerfully, then the husband will also be cheerful and kind. If you hear a dog howling, then your marriage will be short-lived and your young wife will quickly become a widow.

Leave the house at night and in complete darkness, select one log from the woodpile. Do not look at it or change it for another if it is difficult to pull out. And when you come to the house, take a good look at it. A smooth and even log is a good and handsome groom. A rough log is an ugly but hard-working husband. Thick and good bark is a rich betrothed. Stripped bark - poor groom. A thick log is a large and strong future husband. A log with knots is a big family. Crooked log - an old groom or someone with physical disabilities.

Take two wax candles. Light one candle, but put pieces of the other in a spoon and heat it over the burning first candle. Melt the pieces into wax. Quickly pour this melted wax into a glass of cold water. In the light of a candle, examine the resulting figure; it will show you the future.


Take a jar and pour any cereal or grain into it. Hold your left hand over this jar, palm down. Think and ask the question that interests you. Next, take a handful of cereal with your left hand and pour it onto the table. Now recalculate the number of grains. An even number indicates a positive answer - “Yes”, an odd number - “No”.

At night, when everyone is asleep, take the gold chain and rub it between your palms. Hold it in your right hand, then shake it and throw it on the floor. If you have a circle - to troubles, a stripe - to luck, a knot - to difficulties and illnesses, a triangle - to love success, a bow - to a wedding, a snake - to betrayal, a heart - to love.

Sit in front of a mirror with a candle in absolute dark room in the middle of the night. There should be no one else in the room except the fortuneteller. Light a candle and look carefully into the reflective surface. After 5 minutes it will fade. And then behind the glass will appear the image of the betrothed, or rather the devil, who will take his guise. The girl should say: “Cheer me!” The evil spirits will disappear.

Take a regular glass with a smooth surface and wedding ring. Pour water into a glass, about 0.5 volume. Lower the ring to the bottom of the glass and begin to peer into it. As a result, the girl should see her betrothed in the ring.


Fortune telling for the groom using paper and candles

In order to find out the secret about your fiance, perform any of the rituals suggested below or described above:

  • Take a sheet of paper, a frying pan and a candle. Crumple the paper and mentally think about the groom. Place the paper in the pan and light it with a candle flame. When the paper burns out, light it with a candle and examine the resulting shadow, while you can rotate the leaf. The outlines will indicate your future with your fiancé;
  • Take a container and fill it halfway with salt or sugar. Place 2 candles in it and draw a circle around the bowl with chalk to connect your pair. Light these candles at the same time. Now watch the candles. If one of them burns out faster than the other, then the person who owns the first candle will be the follower in this relationship. If the flame is even, calm, without sparks, then the relationship will be strong and long-lasting. If one of the candles goes out, love will quickly disappear in your union. If the light wriggles, there is soot and smoke, then this relationship will not bring you happiness, you will often quarrel and swear;
  • For treason. Carry out the procedure at midnight. Buy 2 absolutely identical candles from the church in advance. Then choose from them which one will be yours and which one will be your betrothed. Scribble on them suitable names. Prepare two bowls of salt. Place candles in them. Draw a chalk circle around the cups so that they are in the very center. Say the following words 3 times: “Fire, you go everywhere, you know everything in the world, you reveal secrets, you cleanse the dirty! Bring, O fire, to the purity of thought and deed of the servant of God (the name of your beloved) in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit! Amen, amen, amen! After speaking the words, light the candles. Next, look at the flame and observe. If your candle goes out first, it means your lover is cheating on you, at least in his thoughts. If the candles burn evenly and for a long time, it means your partner is honest with you;
  • Prepare paper, a bowl of water, candle pieces and walnut halves. Cut out small strips of paper and write on them the names of those who may love you. Next, stick these leaves on different parts of the bowl from the inside. Pour water so that it reaches the notes, but does not wet them. Now take an empty nut shell and attach a small lit candle to it. Place the shell in water. The shell should independently swim up to the note and light it with a candle flame. Whose name is on the note is your beloved. If the candle flame does not light a single piece of paper, then you will be unlucky in love this year.

Or use other rituals in which paper and candles do not take part.

  • Go out into the street at midnight and ask the first person you meet for their name. This is exactly what your betrothed will be called;
  • Take several bulbs and mark each of them with the initials of the fortune-telling letters. Plant the bulbs in the ground. Whose onion sprouts first, that girl will be the first to get married;
  • Take your wedding ring and throw it on the floor. If it rolls towards the door, it means the girl is getting married soon, and the man is going on a business trip. Can be interpreted as leaving home;
  • Insert two matches into the sides of the matchbox and light them. If the burnt heads are facing each other, it means that the “miraculous” guy and girl will be together;
  • Pour grain into one plate and pour water into another. Place a mirror nearby. Bring in the rooster. If the rooster approaches the mirror, it means the groom will be handsome and gentle, if he approaches grain, he will be rich, and if he approaches water, he will be prone to drunkenness;
  • Girls should take turns throwing their felt boots on the road and, by the direction of the “toe” of the felt boots, recognize the direction in which they will get married.


Christmas fortune telling at home using wax and water

Well, now let’s take a closer look at the options for making predictions on wax using water. I’ve already told you how you can tell fortunes with it, and now I’ll give you more explanations on the resulting figures.

Fill a basin or deep bowl with cool water. Take a wax candle in your hand. Light the candle and wait for some wax to melt. Then pour the wax into the water. You should get a figure or several figures. She will predict your future.

Ring or wreath - imminent marriage;
Serpent or coffin - bad sign;
Swan and mushroom - prosperity and success;
Many small figures - great sign, financial well-being;
Apple - wealth and success;
Egg - fears.

Also pay attention to the flame during fortune telling. If the candle is lit the first time and it burns stably, this is good sign. If the candle hisses and sparkles, news or an important message awaits you. A candle that does not light well and burns barely is a bad sign. If the candle does not want to light, then it is better not to guess at all on this day.

Well, here are other meanings of the possible resulting figures:














How to tell fortunes for money and luck at Christmas 2019

Now I will offer you interesting methods of prediction by which you will find out whether your year will be prosperous, profitable or not.

Take a large vessel with water and a few pebbles. Think carefully about your desire for money, and then throw a pebble into the water. If there appears on the surface of the water even number circles, then the wish will come true.

Take the Bible or other spiritual book. Think about a financial issue that interests you. Next, guess 3 numbers - page number, top and bottom lines. Then open the intended page, find the hidden lines and read what is written. Grasp the meaning of the phrases, this is your answer.

Christmas fortune telling for the birth of a child

  • Take the ring and put it in a glass of water, and pierce the wool with a needle. Now hang the ring or needle on a thread and slowly lower it near the hand of whom you are telling fortunes. If the ring or needle makes circular movements, then a girl will be born, if it is pendulum-shaped - a boy, if the object does not move - there will be no children.
  • Pour into a cup (glass) clean water and throw a wedding ring into it, leave it in the cold. In the morning, look how the water froze. If the surface of the water is flat, then the woman will not have children in the near future. If the surface is uneven, examine it carefully. If you see the tubercles, this is for a boy, and the depressions are for a girl. The number of bumps and depressions you count, the number of children you will have.
  • Thread the needle with white thread. Take the thread by the end right hand, and point the tip of the needle at the center of the palm of your left hand at a short distance from it. Look at the needle. If it sways across the palm, it means it’s a girl, if along it means it’s a boy. If the needle stops and then starts swinging again, it means she wants to tell about the gender of the next child. Wait until the needle stops doing anything at all, and until then, count the number of children and determine (remember) their gender.


Fortune telling for Christmas for children: video selection

Well, in conclusion, I want to offer several stories on predictions for children, they are also interested in participating in such rituals.

In general, remember the most important thing - in all fortune-telling you need to see one positive thing, and if something is not very promising for you good news, then just don’t believe in it and it won’t come true. All the best to you!

People say that on the night of January 6-7, Christmas Eve, the predictions are the most accurate and truthful. Christmas Eve is not only big Orthodox holiday, but also a start for the famous Christmas fortune telling- the period lasting until January 19 (Epiphany). By folk beliefs, on this night all prohibitions are lifted, mysterious forces rush to Earth. Some are to harm people, others are to help.

In the old days, girls, going to tell fortunes, were in a serious mood. They mentally fenced themselves off from the real world and turned to supernatural forces. We tried to collect the most interesting and reliable Christmas fortune telling, which we hope will help you unlock the secrets of the future.

When can you guess?

The best time for fortune telling, as we have already reported, this is Christmas Eve. It is then that astral spirits and ghosts penetrate physical world, making contact and communicating the facts of our future.

Another suitable period of winter attempts to look into your future is considered period between January 8 and January 18. At this time, they are also guessing, recognizing their betrothed (name, hair color, character, class), an imminent or distant wedding, the number of children, a successful or unsuccessful marriage. Recognized as special Vasiliev evening, when the result turns out to be highly accurate, even prophetic. This - 13th of January. No less successful in fortune telling and January 18 – Epiphany Christmas Eve.

Preparing for fortune telling

  • You need to get serious;
  • dissolve the hair;
  • untie all the knots that are on the clothes (belts, straps, decorative elements);
  • remove bracelets and rings;
  • mentally isolate yourself from the real world;
  • formulate the question precisely.

The best fortune telling

1. Fortune telling with cups

For fortune telling, you will need several cups corresponding to the number of fortune tellers. A ring, a coin, bread, sugar, onion, salt are placed in cups, and a little water is poured into one cup. With their eyes closed, each of the fortune tellers, in turn, chooses a cup.


Predictions for the future are as follows: ring - for a wedding; coin - to wealth; bread - to prosperity; sugar - for fun; onion - to tears; salt - unfortunately, and a cup of water - to life without much change.

2. Fortune telling with candles

You will need a bowl of water, walnut shell halves, equal to the number fortunetellers, and the same number of small candles or pieces thereof. You need to insert the candles into the shells, light them and let them float in a bowl.

The girl whose candle burns out first will be the first of the fortune tellers to get married. Accordingly, the girl whose candle burns out last will be the last to get married. If someone’s shell with a candle sank, that girl will never be married at all.


3. Fortune telling on paper

Fortune telling for Christmas and Christmastide is rightfully considered the most truthful. Christmas fortune-telling has its roots in the times of pagan Rus'. It was fortune telling during the winter solstice (and this is the period of Christmastide) that was given special importance in pagan times.

It was believed that it was on these days that otherworldly forces were most active, and the boundaries between worlds were thinner, which contributed to a more truthful result of New Year, Christmas and Yuletide fortune-telling.

With the advent of Christianity in Rus', Christmas fortune-telling was not only preserved, but also acquired a more mystical meaning, and although the church tried to fight superstition and fortune-telling, they were carefully passed on from generation to generation, and have survived to this day in a little changed form.

Christmastide refers to the two weeks of winter holidays, from Christmas Eve, which falls on January 6, to Epiphany, celebrated on January 19.

When you decide to tell fortunes for Christmas, remember that the result of fortune telling may not live up to your expectations, so is it worth spoiling your holidays...

A huge variety of methods for Christmas fortune-telling have been invented in Rus', but the main theme of all Christmas fortune-telling is fortune telling for the betrothed (groom). This is understandable, because in ancient times, the fate of a girl depended entirely on how successfully she would get married.

Yuletide fortune telling or fortune telling for Christmas time

Fortune telling on Christmas Eve is called “Yuletide” for a reason. It is on Christmas Eve, January 6, that the so-called Christmastide begins, which lasts until the night of Epiphany, January 19. In ancient times in Rus', people believed that this was a magical period at the beginning of the year, when higher power willingly contact a person, and if you ask the spirits well, you can get a variety of answers and you can open the door of your future.

To predict your destiny and see what lies ahead, how life will turn out and what events may happen, it is important to know not only when to tell fortunes at Christmas, but what is needed for fortune telling. Traditional fortune telling in January with cards or on wax, on mirrors and logs, coffee grounds and many other materials at hand.

It has already been noted that fortune telling at Christmas time very often comes true and is accurate. Because these days the angels help and good spirits.

When can you guess in 2019?

The best time for fortune telling, as we have already reported, is the night before Christmas.

It is then that astral spirits and ghosts penetrate the physical world, making contact and communicating the facts of our future.

Another suitable period for winter attempts to look into your future is considered to be the period between January 8 and January 18. At this time, they are also guessing, recognizing their betrothed (name, hair color, character, class), an imminent or distant wedding, the number of children, a successful or unsuccessful marriage.

Vasilyev's evening is recognized as special when the result turns out to be highly accurate, even prophetic. This is January 13th.
No less successful in fortune telling is January 18 - Epiphany Eve.

Preparing for fortune telling on Christmastide

In order to get reliable answers and not harm themselves, fortune tellers had to meet a number of certain conditions:

  • First of all, you had to take off your protection, that is, the cross. You understand that fortune telling is a “conversation with the devil,” and he, as you know, is afraid of the cross. It was also necessary to remove all the icons from the room in which the ceremony would be performed, or to cover them with a scarf.
  • Secondly, you had to take off rings, belts and any other “closed” or “encircling” things. It's better to let your hair down.
  • Thirdly, during the fortune telling itself, you should not cross your arms and legs. Even now, any esotericist will tell you that this blocks energy.
  • Fourthly, there should be no other lighting in the room except from candles.
  • Fifthly, before fortune telling (about a day in advance) you shouldn’t quarrel with anyone.

And lastly, you must be quiet.

Well, these are, perhaps, the basic rules. In fact, in different time This list could change in different provinces, but these are subtleties.

Now, as for the place in which it is best to guess. It was believed that the place for this ritual should be “unclean.” The bathhouse fit this description perfectly; I have already briefly mentioned why the bathhouse is considered such a place; let’s not focus on this now. If for some reason there is no bathhouse nearby, then you can conduct the ceremony in the attic, basement, or in an abandoned house. And the most last option– at home (by the way, one of the least desirable).

By the way, in addition to all of the above, the girls wondered:

  • at road intersections;
  • in the courtyard of the house (there are several such fortune-telling);
  • and the worst option is in the cemetery (it is believed that this place is reminiscent of strong energy, moreover, the line between the worlds is the thinnest).


Simple methods of fortune telling for Christmastide and Christmas 2019

The image of the cross means patience. Wreath - glory. The ladder is the achievement of a desired and long-awaited goal. The shadow of a person predicts a pleasant date, the shadow of a house when fortune telling on coffee grounds is a symbol of abundance. The outline of a church or bell tower signifies a return home. A deer may portend a fast journey.

  • if they burn but smoke, then there will soon be changes in your life;
  • if they burn brightly and for a long time, it means that major acquisitions await you;
  • if they smolder and do not light up for a long time, then this is a warning about a major trouble or illness.

The meaning of a candle flame during fortune telling:

  • If you light a candle and you succeed the first time and it burns steadily, this is a good sign.
  • If the candle sparks, hisses, whistles or makes some noise, it means that some important news or message awaits you.
  • A wax candle that does not light well and barely burns is not a good sign.
  • If during fortune telling the candle does not want to light, this is a sign that it is better not to tell fortunes today, but to postpone the ritual of fortune telling with candles to another day.

Fortune telling by mirror

This ancient fortune telling has always been considered the most accurate. However, it also carried dangers. Often impressionable young ladies lost their senses. And the whole point is that, according to ancient legends, a mirror is nothing more than the line between the real and the otherworldly.

There are many signs and customs associated with this belief. Previously, when mirrors were made using silver, it was believed that in addition to connecting with the world of spirits, they had a long memory, which could harm people. Therefore, almost all signs relating to the mirror are considered bad omens.

Everyone knows that a broken mirror promises misfortune and trouble. In the old days, women were not allowed to look in the mirror during pregnancy and immediately after childbirth, because... it was believed that this could destroy the precarious line between the two worlds and harm the baby and mother. At the same time, the mirror also served a strong talisman: It was believed that evil spirits, reflected in the mirror, instantly and forever lost their power.

But let's get back to the fortune telling itself. They told fortunes with a mirror in an “unclean” place (for example, in a bathhouse, where they washed off all the dirt), at midnight on Christmas Eve, when the border between reality and other world most thinned. The girl who performed the divination had to be alone in the room.

She needed to take off her belt, let her hair down, and put two cutlery and a candle on the table. Having prepared everything necessary, the girl sat down facing the mirror and said: “Betrothed, mummer, come to me for dinner.”

At exactly midnight, in the mirror, she saw the face of a man leaning over her shoulder. At this moment, peering into the face of her future groom, she had to utter words that would drive away the image: “Cheer out of this place!” From that moment on, the danger subsided. It was believed that if this is not said, the betrothed may come out of the mirror, and then misfortune will occur.

Fortune telling by egg

Pour water into a glass and pour the protein into it raw egg. Place the glass in a heated oven so that the whites curl. After this, take out the glass and carefully look at the resulting figure.

Interpretation of figures:

  1. A church dome or ring means an imminent wedding.
  2. Rectangle or square - serious illness, death.
  3. Ship - moving after marriage to another city or country.
  4. A pancake that has sunk to the bottom is a series of adversities and troubles, a long girlhood.


Take Blank sheet paper and crumple it, then place it on the bottom of an inverted plate and set it on fire. When the paper burns out, bring the saucer with the ashes to the wall and carefully turn the plate until a shadow appears on the wall, the outlines of which will be the result of fortune telling. How to interpret a shadow? Using your imagination!

Christmas fortune telling by nut shell

Pour water into a basin. Attach strips of paper along the edges of the pelvis on which events are written, for example, a wedding, a trip, receiving money, a new job, etc. (if there is only one fortuneteller), or the names of all those present who want to know their future.

In the second case, one event is planned, in particular a wedding, engagement, meeting a future spouse, etc.
Take half a walnut shell and secure the stub of a church or birthday candle in it. Light the candle and push the “boat” to the middle of the pelvis. From there, the shell should float to one of the notes on its own.

But the dream will come true only if the paper, upon contact with the boat, lights up from the candle flame.


Fortune telling by ring

Take a bowl of clean water, throw a wedding ring into it and leave it in the cold. In the morning, look how frozen the water is. If the surface of the water is smooth, the fortune-telling woman will not have children in the near future. If the surface is uneven, look at it very carefully, because the bumps are boys, and the depressions are girls. Accordingly, the number of tubercles and dimples you count, the number of children you will have.

When everyone is asleep, you need to take the gold chain, rub it between your palms, hold it in your right hand, shake it and throw it on the table.

  • A circle has formed - closed troubles are expected;
  • streak - luck;
  • node - difficulties and illnesses;
  • triangle - love success;
  • bow – wedding;
  • snake - betrayal;
  • heart is love.

Fortune telling with a knife

For this type of fortune telling, gypsies use a round wooden board with a diameter of about 30 centimeters to cut bread. If you don’t have a board of this size at hand, you can take a tray or cut a circle out of cardboard. Along the edges
circle write answers to the most frequently asked questions:

"Yes",
"No",

"Be patient",
“Beware: there is an enemy next to you, hiding under the guise of a friend,”

"Good news"
"Love Letter"

"Luck in the undertaking"
"Unexpected Guest"

"Love",
"Today's tears will turn into joy tomorrow"

"Unexpected news"
"New love",

"Unexpected meeting",
"Journey",
"Important letter."

Place a regular one in the center of the circle kitchen knife and mentally formulate a question. Rotate the knife around its axis three times. One of the three messages that the knife point will point to will be the answer to asked question.

The other two may be the cause or effect of the predicted event. If, after rotation, the tip of the knife stops at an equal distance from the two messages, the fortune telling must be repeated.


Fortune telling YES-NO

Hold your left hand over a jar with any cereal or grain, palm down. While concentrating, you need to ask the question that interests you.

After this, take a handful of cereal from the jar and pour it onto the table, then count the number of grains. If the number of grains is even, this means a positive answer - YES, an odd number means a negative answer - NO.

Fortune telling with a needle

Take a needle and white thread. Thread the thread through the eye. Take the thread by the end with your right hand, and point the tip of the needle into the center of the palm of your left hand at a short distance from it. Keep an eye on the needle. If it begins to sway across your palm, it means you are having a girl, if along it means you are having a boy.

After the needle stops, it may begin to swing again, which means it alerts you to the gender of the next baby. Wait until the needle stops making any movements at all, and until then, count the number of your children and do not forget to remember their gender.

Christmas fortune telling by barking dogs

At midnight, take a knife, go outside, go to a snowdrift and start cutting the snow with a knife, saying: “Damn, damn, don’t be silent, damn, damn, tell me what kind of husband I’ll get, will I have to laugh or cry?”

After pronouncing the words of the spell, shut up and listen carefully to the barking of the dogs. If an angry, abrupt bark is heard, it means that the future husband will be strict and gloomy.

If the dogs bark cheerfully and loudly, then the husband will be cheerful and kind.

It is very bad if you hear a dog howling during fortune telling. This suggests that the marriage will not last long and very quickly the young wife will become a widow.


Fortune telling on the number and gender of future children

On Christmas evening, you need to pour water into a glass, put a ring in it and put it out in the cold. Before going to bed, a glass is taken out of the cold and future children are judged by the icy surface formed in it.

Fortune telling about your future husband

Fortune telling at Christmas for your future husband is the most popular look fortune telling for girls. There are a lot of fortune telling about your future husband. One of the simplest ones is to go out into the street and ask the first man passing by his name - this will be the name of your future spouse. Also, the appearance of this person will tell you how handsome and rich your groom will be.

You can find out what the groom will look like in in my own dream. This dream must be prophetic. To summon him, take a clean comb before going to bed, slowly comb your hair with it, while saying: “Betrothed-mummer, come to me dressed up.” Then put the comb under your pillow and go to bed.

In the old days they used to tell fortunes using logs. The girl had to leave the house at night and, in complete darkness, select one log from the woodpile, without looking at it and without exchanging for another if it was difficult to pull out. Arriving at the house, you need to carefully examine the log, because it can tell a lot about your future spouse.

A smooth and even log is a good and handsome groom. A rough log is an ugly but hard-working husband. Thick and good bark – rich tapering. Stripped bark - poor groom. A thick log means a large and strong future husband. Log with knots - big family. A crooked log is an old groom or one with physical disabilities.

This fortune telling is for those who are lonely but passionate about finding true love. At midnight, go to the nearest church and walk around it 12 times. It is believed that this ritual destroys loneliness and promotes the emergence of new love.

Fortune telling about desires is as different as others. We suggest you try to tell fortunes using grains, take a handful of them in your left hand, clench your palm into a fist and say your wish out loud.

After this, count the number of grains. If you have an even number of grains in your hand, your wish will come true, but an odd number - not now.

You can tell your wish by looking at a cat, if you have one in your house. Make a wish and invite your cat to come to you. If he crosses the threshold of the room right paw- the wish will come true, the left one will not.

During Christmas fortune-telling, you need to look for only good meaning. Bad omens should not be given importance, otherwise you will set yourself up for failure in the new year.

Video: Christmas fortune telling at home

Period New Year's holidays- this is the most long-awaited and magical time of the year; our ancestors noticed that predictions during this period often came true. The girls wondered about future husbands and boyfriends, about the birth of children and a happy family life. The most suitable period for predictions was considered to be the night before Christmas, the night before the New Year according to the old style, and Epiphany night.

This tradition has been preserved and has come down to us, because it is interesting to know in advance what to expect from the coming new year.

Most often, girls and women are interested in answers to personal questions, what the groom will be like, how many children she will have and what gender they will be. It is Christmas fortune telling for pregnancy that is the most accurate and truthful.

Signs for Christmas to get pregnant

In order for such a desired pregnancy to occur, it is in the coming year that you need to light a candle in the evening before and sincerely ask the Virgin Mary, who gave life to Christ, to give the opportunity to also become a mother. You need to ask with faith and strong desire.

You can also try to bring the desired appearance of the baby closer with the help of symbols of a new life - these are plant seeds, eggs, caviar. If the choice fell on grains or caviar, then count out the amount that is a multiple of your age and eat them, but one egg is enough.

Another option is to go outside before the first Christmas star and feed homeless animals. If one of them runs after you towards the house, then, if possible, take it to you or feed it constantly, this will help attract what you want.

Christmas fortune telling for pregnancy

To find out the gender and number of future babies, use fortune telling using a thread (or your own hair) and a needle. To do this, you need to take a silk thread or your own hair and thread it through the eye of the needle, holding the thread in your right hand, bring it above your left open palm, on which you want to pull back thumb to the side. Lower the needle up and down three times, then point it to the center and observe how the needle behaves. If it moves like a pendulum, expect the appearance of a son in your life; a circular motion foreshadows the birth of a sweet daughter. After the first attempt, repeat the procedure again, lowering the needle between your fingers, and so on until the needle stops. The movements of the needle symbolize all the children destined for life: both those already born and those who are to be expected.

Christmas fortune-telling is a special Old Slavonic ritual that girls perform during the period from January 6 to 7 () and on to find out their betrothed or their destiny.

In general, women have been fortune-telling since time immemorial for the entire period, starting from January 6 and up to the nineteenth, but the most reliable fortune-telling has always been considered the rituals performed precisely on the eve of Christmas and Epiphany.

There are a great many ways of Christmas fortune-telling, some have come to us since the times of our ancestors, others have appeared recently. Meanwhile, there are certain rules for conducting such Christmas rituals:

1. Fortune telling should be carried out only in the evening (night) time of day and, better, after midnight.

7. Before the Christmas ritual, you need to take off your belt, if you have one, as well as unbutton all the buttons on your clothes and untie all the knots.

And now some of the most famous, most interesting and most accurate fortune telling for Christmas time.

The easiest way to get an answer to the question “What awaits me in the future?”, people say, is to conduct Christmas fortune-telling. It is at this time that such rituals, as practice shows, are the most reliable.

How to correctly predict the future? Taking into account the rules for Christmas rituals described above, women (girls) can perform the following rituals.

Fortune telling for Christmas using cups

To tell fortunes with cups, you should, firstly, take as many cutlery as there are people gathered at the table (if one girl is telling fortunes, then there should be seven cups).

Secondly, you need to place one item in each cup:

  • bread;
  • salt;
  • coin;
  • ring;
  • sugar;
  • water.

Now the ritual itself begins. The fortuneteller must, closing his eyes and mixing the cups on the table, choose one for himself cutlery, the contents of which will indicate the future. You come across bread - it means you will live in complete abundance, salt speaks of the misfortunes that will await you next year, onions - women's tears, a coin - a rich groom or a prestigious job, a ring - wait for marriage, sugar - sweet, cheerful, interesting life, water - the flow of life in the same direction.

To carry out such a ritual, you need to melt the wax and then, saying the following words “Dovoy, brownie, I’m waiting for you to drink milk and taste the wax,” pour this wax into warm, but not hot milk, poured into a plate. After such a ritual, the plate is placed on the threshold of the house (apartment) and the fortuneteller watches what is happening.

— If the wax has frozen in the form of a flower, the girl will soon get married.
- Formed in milk wax figure some kind of beast - wait for the appearance of an enemy, an enemy.
- If you see a cross on the milk, it will speak of serious troubles or even the death of loved ones.
— Drawing in the form of a star - to a promotion on the career ladder or good academic achievements.
- Simple stripes will indicate frequent crossings, permanent roads.
— A figurine in the shape of a man means new acquaintances and friends.

Before performing the ritual, a woman must take any book from her collection (it is possible to use classical, scientific and other literature, as well as church books). Next, the fortuneteller thinks of two numbers. The first number is the page number of the selected book, and the second is a line that will talk about the beauty’s future. Read the prediction and try to interpret it, connecting it with your life.

Fortune telling on a gold chain

At the stroke of midnight, take the gold chain that you wear on your neck or hand, hold it between your palms and rub until jewel won't get warm. The entire time you are rubbing gold, think (say) one thing to yourself: “What awaits me in the future?” Next, transfer the product to your right hand and sharply throw it on the table. Some kind of figure should form on the table, it will tell you what to expect from the coming year.

- If you see a flat line, this means that good luck and luck will accompany you in all matters.

— If a circle or oval has formed on the table, you should expect difficulties; a situation may arise from which it will be very difficult to get out.

— Nodules that appear on the chain indicate financial losses and poor health; the more such nodules, the worse the situation will be.

- The resulting triangle will judge luck and love.

— Cloud - all dreams will come true.

- You looked at the snake from the chain on the table, then expect traitors and ill-wishers to appear in your life, and they may turn out to be the people closest to you.

- Golden bow - wait for a proposal from your betrothed and an imminent wedding.

— When a heart is made from a chain on the table, it will promise a woman pure great love and happiness.

Every girl dreams of finding a handsome, kind and faithful prince, the man of her dreams who can make her truly happy. But it is possible to see your betrothed in advance using the same divination.

How to find out the name of your future husband

On the night before Christmas or Epiphany, cut a sheet of paper into strips of equal width and length, write one on each male name. There should be at least 25 pieces of paper. Roll each strip into a roller or simply fold it several times, and then place it in a bag and mix. Place it all under your pillow, and when you wake up, take one piece of paper out of the bag. The name that will be indicated on it will be the name of your husband.

Who will get married first (fortune telling for unmarried friends)

During Christmas time, women take an onion for themselves, plant it in the ground, in the spring, they look at the result. Whose onion sprouted first and put out big feathers will be the first to get married.

Those who wish to see their betrothed in advance should turn off the lights in the room at midnight on Christmastide, light several candles, but only in pairs, and, positioned between two mirrors, create a corridor of arches. From the last arch of such a corridor, after looking for a long time without blinking, the figure of the betrothed should appear.

Fortune telling with a ring

To carry out such a ritual, the girl should take a gold ring, preferably her own, and prepare a glass filled with cold water. On Christmas night, you need to throw a ring into a glass with your right hand and carefully watch it, looking at the swaying water. After 2-3 minutes, an image should appear in the water in which the woman can see the future groom.

Where to wait for the groom

Through such fortune-telling, one can determine which side a woman should wait for matchmakers. What should be done. First, take off your boot (any shoe that belongs to the girl), go outside at midnight on Christmastide and throw the shoes over the fence (through the gate). Next, the lady needs to look in which direction the tip of the fallen shoe will point, it is on that side that her groom will be.

In conclusion, a few more of the most interesting, in my opinion, Christmas rituals for unmarried ladies.

Fortune telling on your child's gender

An engagement ring or any other ring belonging to the fair sex will help a woman find out the gender of her baby. During Christmas time, it should be removed and hung on its own hair, then put water in any container, for example, a glass or cup, and hold the ring over this container. If the jewelry makes pendulum-like movements, then you should expect a boy, if you observe the movement of the ring in a circle, wait for a girl.

According to popular belief, if the ring stops over water, this indicates childlessness.

Fortune telling with an egg

You should get something fresh egg, using a knife, punch a small hole in it, pour it into a glass or cup (bowl) of water. Next you need to watch the protein. If domes or churches are formed from protein in the water, there will be a wedding. If you see a ring - expect marriage, a ship or other transport - roads, long business trips, a square (cube) - for burial.

If an egg white drowns in a glass of water, expect a fire.

Fortune telling with needles for marriage

To find out if she will get married or not in the near future, a woman needs to take 2 needles on Christmas Day, rub them with fresh lard and put them in a glass of water. If the needles come together in the water, this means marriage; if they go apart, there will be no marriage in the near future or at all.

On a note! When the needles rubbed with lard have sunk, expect serious troubles, whiteness or illness.

And finally, I would like to say, dear girls, women who want to know their destiny, their future, to see their betrothed, when fortune telling at Christmas time, believe in the good, in the positive and it will certainly be so. If you receive a negative result, do not panic, do not get upset in advance, do not prepare yourself for the bad, remember, these are just fortune-telling and bad prediction, just a warning for you, a parting word to be more careful in certain situations.

I wish that in the New Year all your wishes come true, your dreams come true, and as for fortune telling, remember, all this is interesting and fun, but each of us, and not a fortune teller, is the smith of our own happiness.

Good luck and all the best!
