***** Fortune telling on ill-wishers with the help of needles *****
This Christmas divination requires 21 brand new needles, none of which have been used in any way.
They are placed in a plate or saucer, into which water is slowly poured. Flowing water makes the needles take a certain position and create a "picture" that will be the personification of a future life situation.
The needles that formed the crosses speak of hostile or simply unfriendly people, and by the number of such “crosses” one can judge the hostility of the environment in which one happens to live and work.
***** Guessing (yes-no) to a question with a needle *****
This divination helps to answer a question, the answer to which can be given with the words "yes" or "no".
The needle in this divination is used as a pendulum. It is necessary to thread a red silk thread into it. Take a piece of approximately 75 cm, fold in half and tie the ends with a knot. We also need a coin belonging to a fortuneteller. In the old days, a silver coin was considered a prerequisite, but now it is not observed. The coin is placed on the table and the pendulum, made from the needle, is sent to its center (they hold the thread by the knot), while the fortuneteller should sit at the table, leaning on it with his elbow.
If the pendulum has not set in motion, this means that there is no clear answer to this question at the moment. Movement in the transverse direction symbolizes a negative response, in the longitudinal direction - a positive one. A needle moving in a circle indicates a not entirely successful formulation of the question - in this case it needs to be put in a different verbal form.
***** Divination for the future with a nutshell *****
For this divination, you need a bowl of water, paper and a walnut shell.
Attach small paper strips with significant events written on them to the edge of the pelvis, for example, moving, new job, travel, marriage, pregnancy, etc. Then, in the half of the shell, attach the cinder of a candle, but not a simple one, but bought in a church or birthday. The candle is lit, after which the shell is lowered with it to float in the basin.
To which piece of paper she approaches or, remaining in place, leans in her direction, then the event will occur within a year.
***** Fortune telling on the choice of a husband with the help of bulbs *****
The results of such fortune-telling are not immediately visible, but this is the case when you can wait, because the price of the issue is the choice of the best groom!
On Christmas Eve, take a few bulbs according to the number of candidates for the vacancy of your life partner, sign them with the appropriate names. Put them in water and wait for them to sprout. Pay attention to the bulb, which sprouts earlier than all the others: the person with the name that is written on it is the most suitable applicant.
P.S. We removed fortune-telling with mirrors from the list .. They say it's not safe at all, it's better not to risk it ..
Divination by candles, water and mirrors at Christmas time is one of those ancient traditions that are destined to live for more than one hundred years. After all, the mystery of girlish prophecies not only satisfies the eternal interest in the unknown, but also captures with unknown entertainment, excites and frightens at the same time. Winter Christmas time continues from January 7 to 19. And if you fail to tell fortunes on Christmas Day (the day of greatest magical power), there will still be two whole weeks left in stock. During this long period, any girl will have time to conduct several rituals at home in order to independently look behind the prism of mystery and find out about her future, new love and real relationships, about the name of a potential groom or a possible betrayal of her husband.
Fortune telling on water, mirrors and candles for Christmas and Christmas time
Christmas (Christmas) divination on water, candles and mirrors is very popular among both young girls and adult married women. Late in the evening or late at night, girlfriends gather in a close company to find out the name of the betrothed, predict changes in life, read their fate from shadows or mystical signs. But sometimes fortune telling, all participants should adhere to strict rules:
- Do not cross your arms and legs, so as not to confuse fate;
- Remove all rings, bracelets, beads and other items tied to the limbs or encircling the body;
- Let your hair down and take off your shoes;
- Remove all sources of light and excess noise;
- Be quiet and calm;
- Get rid of the protection of religion by removing the pectoral cross and removing the icons away.
Failure to comply with these conditions will at best deprive popular rituals of their vaunted authenticity. At worst, it will make fortune telling on water, mirrors and candles at Christmas and Christmas time unsafe.
Where can you tell girls and girls for Christmas time
Having thoroughly mastered all the conditions of divination, you need to choose a suitable place with the same care. According to folk beliefs in order for the Christmas rites to bring the desired result, the selected corner must be "unclean". One of the most successful options is a bath. It is there, according to ancient legends, that scarecrows, spirits and other evil spirits live. Also, an old attic, basement or abandoned house is suitable for Christmas divination. The bravest can tell fortunes in the cemetery, where the worlds of the living and the dead are most closely intertwined. But the crossroads is still considered the most sinister place for rituals. There is an opinion that each of these road intersections belongs to one of the demons, which means it is fraught with heavy and completely “impure” energy.
If you decide not to go far and stay guessing in your own house, make sure that the room is quiet and dark. A couple of candles will be enough for most rituals. And the Bible and icons, on the contrary, are completely inappropriate in such a case.

The items in them are your prediction for the whole next year (sugar is a sweet life, salt is tears, a ring is marriage, a key is a new home, a button is children, satiety, a coin is wealth).
- Pour clean water into a deep plate, light a red candle. Gently drip melted wax into the water for a few seconds. Extinguish the candle and try to interpret the figures at the bottom of the plate in the most logical way. If the wax left a lot of small individual drops - expect wealth. A fan-shaped figure means difficulties in work, tree leaves - for intrigue, grapes - for good luck, an egg or an oval - for replenishment in the family, a mushroom - for health, a bell - for news, etc.

If the log is thick - a man will get rich, knotty - to children, peeled or cracked - to ruin, crooked - to male diseases. If you come across a moldy log, expect treason.
- Pour water into a large basin, glue pieces of paper with possible events on the sides: wedding, pregnancy, career growth, illness, ruin, betrayal of a guy, etc. Put a lit small candle in a nutshell and let the boat sail. To which piece of paper the shell lands, it will happen in the near future;
- Place a bowl of milk at the threshold, light a candle and say: "Brownie, my master, come under the threshold to drink milk, eat wax." Then pour melted wax into the milk and see what shape it turns into. The cross is a disease, the beast is an enemy, a flower is a homeowner, a tree is a betrayal of her husband. If none of the above is seen, you can not expect trouble.

With candles
This is a very easy divination for a man's love, which should be done during a joint gala dinner on Christmas Eve. It will help to find out how a joint future will develop with this person. During the meal, you need to light a lit church candle next to it and stealthily observe the flickering light of its flame:
- a calm and even flame promises mutual love and a happy marriage;
- if the wax flows only from one side - the beloved has secrets from the fortuneteller;
- when wax flows down the candle in streams, gradually filling the candlestick, this means that life with the chosen one will be difficult;
- the crackling of a candle and black smoke from it are considered a very bad sign, portending a separation or a negative magical influence on a companion from the outside (love spell, damage, etc.).
For another version of divination using a candle, you will need a silver ring, a coin and a red woolen thread. Necessary:
- light a candle;
- tie the thread to the ring;
- place the coin right in front of the candle;
- hold the ring motionless on a thread above the coin;
- clearly ask a question of interest about a lover or future relationship (you can not out loud, but to yourself).
A motionless hanging ring speaks of untimeliness question asked, but if it sways in different directions, then the answer is “yes”. Approaching and moving away from the fortuneteller means a negative result, movement in a circle indicates the need to formulate the question in a different way. In the latter case, fortune-telling should not be carried out again on the same day, it is better to wait for time and repeat it.
Divination with paper
For this Christmas ritual you will need:
- Cut a sheet of paper into several strips.
- On each write the name of a guy you know (including the one you like).
- Spread the strips randomly on the table.
- Thread a thick woolen thread into the golden ring (the color does not matter in this case).
- Lead decoration over pieces of paper with names. The name on which the decoration will begin to sway the most belongs to a man who has sincere feelings for a fortuneteller.
Another fortune-telling, characterized by ease of execution. You need to prepare: a sheet of paper, a pen, a compass, a ruler. Then follow the sequence of actions:
- draw a circle on the sheet (using a compass);
- draw it into segments using a ruler, each of which corresponds to the letters in the name of the chosen one;
- write them one on each sector;
- similarly enter your name in the circle, and if it contains more letters than segments in the circle, then you do not need to write it down in full;
- compare the positions of vowels and consonants in each segment.
If two sectors contain only vowels or only consonants - love will pass quickly, in three - there will be mutual understanding in the union. A larger number portends strong love and a long marriage. If there is no such combination in the sectors, then the relationship has no future.

How to tell fortunes for a betrothed
The methods of Christmas divination for the betrothed are very diverse and help to find out the maximum information about the future spouse: external data, name, age, character, profession, etc. Some of them are simple and safe, others are more complex and can harm the fortuneteller in case wrong actions.
Part of the rituals allow you to see the image of the groom in a dream. In order for the dream to be prophetic, and the answers to the questions of interest to be as truthful as possible, you must follow some rules:
- sleep all alone;
- do not talk to anyone on the evening of divination, especially after pronouncing a conspiracy;
- you should go to bed in the opposite direction from the usual;
- Turn the sheet and pillow upside down;
- put the shirt in which the fortuneteller sleeps inside out.
Rituals with cards
For the ritual, you will need a simple playing deck of cards, but always a new one that has never been played before. Need:
- 1. Pull out all the kings and jacks from it - they will symbolize men.
- 2. Mix them thoroughly.
- 3. Place all eight cards face down under the pillow.
- 4. Say a magic spell: "My fiance, dream me in a dream and tell me about yourself."
- 5. Go to bed.
- 6. In the morning, just by opening your eyes, take out the first card that comes across and get a prediction.
If a king is caught, this portends a fortune-telling husband, much older than her in age, a jack promises a young life partner or peer. The suit also matters: worms - narrowed either from the girl’s inner circle or lives nearby, the spade suit speaks of a wealthy and successful person, a cross jack or king means an unexpected meeting with a soulmate, and a diamond suit warns that acquaintance will happen through friends or relatives.
Another way of divination is to hide four kings from an ordinary playing deck under the pillow before going to bed. Then pronounce a conspiracy: " Betrothed, mummers, come to me in a dream". The king of spades, who had a dream at night, will tell you that the spouse will be much older and very jealous, the club of clubs means a divorced or widower or a military or businessman, the king of hearts promises a rich and handsome companion, and a tambourine - a desired and beloved one.
You can also try this option:
- Remove all kings from the deck.
- Put under the bed.
- Press down lightly with the heel of your shoe.
- Say the magic words: “Narrowed-mummer, I am waiting for you dressed up. Come, show yourself, marvel at me. In a dream, a girl will dream of her future husband.

With candles and a mirror
The option of divination with candles and a mirror is perhaps one of the most exciting and dangerous. But thanks to him, you can see the image of the future spouse in great detail.
It should be noted that the devil comes in the form of the betrothed. Therefore, you need to be very careful and do not forget to say at the end of fortune-telling: “Stay away from me” or “Stay away from this place" in order to drive away evil spirits.
With one mirror and one candle
For its implementation you need:
- Sit in front of a mirror.
- Light a candle and put it next to you.
- Place a clean towel or napkin next to you.
- Look directly into the mirror reflection of the candle. If the image begins to become cloudy, this indicates the imminent approach of the betrothed.
- Wipe the mirror and continue to look into it.
- The betrothed should approach the girl from behind. You can not take your eyes off the mirror and even more so turn around.
- After the fortuneteller has seen the betrothed in all the details, you need to say "Chur this place."
If the groom had time to approach, he will sit down next to him and put an object on the table. In no case should you look directly at him, you need to wait for his departure and only after that pick up the left thing.
With two candles and two mirrors
To conduct the ceremony, you should:
- Place a small mirror on the table in front of you.
- Place a second larger mirror behind you so that they form a mirror corridor.
- Put lit candles on the sides.
- Carefully look into the reflection of the flame and say: "My betrothed mummer, come to me for dinner."
- After a while, the face of the betrothed will appear. It is necessary to consider it in all details and say loudly: “Chur, me! ”, cross yourself and blow out the candles.

With a mirror and three candles
To perform you will need:
- prepare a crystal (glass) glass or glass with water or white wine, a mirror and three candles;
- put it on the table, and install a mirror behind it;
- arrange candles around the glass and light them;
- peer into the mirror through the glass;
- after a sufficiently long period of time, various images, faces, silhouettes will begin to appear in the mirror, and one can judge the future chosen one from them.
If during the ritual the mirror is broken or cracked, you need to collect the fragments in a container of clean water, without touching them with your bare hands. Then cover the basin or bowl with black cloth, and discard in the morning.
Divination for the future and desires
At Christmas, you can guess for the future and for the fulfillment of desires, this will require simple improvised means.

This simple fortune-telling is suitable for girls with a rich imagination. For divination on wax, you will need a cup of cold water and two wax candles. To perform the ritual, you must:
- light one candle;
- break the other into separate pieces and put them in a spoon;
- heat it properly over a burning candle to melt the wax;
- quickly pour the melted wax into a glass of cold water;

- stripes - moving, change of scenery;
- circle or pancake - serene youth;
- yama is a dangerous disease;
- mushroom - long years life;
- ring - wedding;
- bell - anxiety, trouble;
- flower - gentleman;
- star - luck, success;
- egg or oval - for change;
- apple - health.
Another simple divination option is using small candles. It will require a large container of water (basin or bowl) and walnut shell halves, in an amount equal to the number of fortunetellers. Candles need to be lit, put in a shell and carefully lowered into the water.
The candle will burn out first for the girl who will marry first, and the last for the one who is still very far from marriage. If the shell has completely sunk to the bottom, the girl will never marry.
The same method of Christmas divination can also be used to obtain more specific predictions. To do this, you need to additionally lay out small sheets of paper around the container with water with some events written on them (new acquaintance, marriage, moving, travel, etc.) The inscription, to which the shells with candles float closest, will become prediction for the coming year.
Another simple method that will require candles:
- on the night before Christmas, you need to wash and put on clean and smart clothes;
- put the purchased candle on a wooden stand;
- mentally formulate the question of interest;
- set fire to the wick;
- watch the flames.
A dim glow will tell about the upcoming sadness and sadness. A low and even flame promises a measured life without surprises, and a bright and blazing fire portends good luck and mutual feelings. If the crackling of a candle is clearly audible, then the fortuneteller will have a lot of happiness. Yellowish light predicts joy in the future, red-orange light predicts good business profits, and soot predicts misfortune, problems and difficulties.

- to stir thoroughly;
- pull out, without looking, a handful of pieces of paper and get a prediction.

- draw it into sectors;
- in each, write the following meanings in a circle: “Yes”, “No”, “We should wait”, “False person is nearby”, “A pleasant surprise”, “Love date”, “Luck and success”, “Difficulties, disappointments”, “ Uninvited guests”, “Journey”, “Important news”;

Fortune telling on desires:

Another way:
- cut paper strips of the same size;
- write your desires on them;
- put all the sheets in a wide container;
- fill them with water;
- wait until the strips of paper gradually begin to float to the surface.
The piece of paper that surfaced first means the fulfillment of the plan. Sheets that surfaced later indicate that a lot of effort will be required to realize a dream. If the strip has sunk, then the desire is not destined to be fulfilled.

Christmas superstitions
During fortune-telling for Christmas at home, not everything always goes as planned. Unforeseen situations also happen: inventory, for example, a mirror or a glass, can break, candles go out, a deck of cards crumble. For each such episode, there is a certain belief:
- If during the ceremony with the mirror it broke or cracked, it means that the spirits do not want to talk to the fortuneteller. You should immediately stop guessing.
- Extinguished candles are a very bad sign. You should protect yourself from future troubles.
- If the fortuneteller mixed up the text of the spoken conspiracy, fortune telling will not work.
- Spirits are more willing to make contact in the house where the deceased was in the current year.
- If the answer to the question does not suit the fortuneteller or is unclear to her, it is forbidden to disturb the spirits a second time. It is better to postpone the ritual for next year.
At home from January 6 to 7, 2019 with a candle that will help you know your future and really excite the imagination. By the way, about the imagination, many fortune-telling associated specifically with candles require the presence of a certain amount of imagination in a person.
On the other hand, most of the candle fortune-telling that we will give in this article can be done with girlfriends. If you combine the creativity of all the girls, you get an entertaining and unique pastime.
On wax
This is an extremely simple and fascinating divination for Christmas with candles and water. To carry it out, you will need a bowl of water, a wax candle and, as we already wrote about this above, your own imagination. Once again, I would like to draw your attention to the fact that it is necessary to guess from Christmas Eve before Christmas, which means on the night of January 6-7. On the night of January 7-8 - on Christmas itself, it is not customary to guess. But then, until the night of January 18-19, you can guess, at least every day.
So everything necessary materials is at hand. Light a candle and wait for some of the wax to melt. Now pour the wax into a bowl of water and let it take its final shape for a few seconds. Get a figurine. By deciphering which, you can decipher your future.
Sometimes, in addition to one large figure, several small figures also appear in the water. This is a good sign, which, in most cases, indicates that next year will be extremely successful for you financially. In general, you can expect a good income. If the main figure is large and round, like an apple, it promises you a satisfying life in abundance and prosperity.
Sometimes in the water you can see an egg - a symbol of fears and fears. A bad sign is the silhouette of a snake or a coffin. Good silhouettes include a swan or a mushroom: they guarantee success in the near future. Grapes are also a symbol of prosperity and love. If you see a house, this is a great sign that you will soon have your own household. This means that you can expect marriage. A wreath or ring also speaks of marriage.
By the shadows
When conducting this ritual, you also need candles, a saucer, a sheet of paper and fantasy. Again, we will have to independently encrypt the forms that the universe will send. A sheet of paper must be crumpled in your hands and constantly think about what awaits you in the future. Simply, mentally ask this question. Now put the paper on a saucer and burn it. Wait until the paper is completely burned. Place the plate in relation to the candle so that it casts a shadow on the wall. It is by the shadow that you have to judge what the future holds.
The interpretation of the meaning of the main figures will be the same as when divining with wax. But do not be afraid to go further and turn on your imagination. Perhaps you will see much more. After all, you are guessing at your fate, and only you yourself can know what to expect in the future with joy, and what to fear.
By egg
Not exactly divination associated with a candle, but also requires the presence of fire. It will be necessary to take the raw egg white and pour it into a glass, which must first be filled with water. Put a glass of protein in a preheated oven so that the protein curdles. Have you already guessed that certain figures were obtained from the protein, according to which one must predict one's fate. A ring and a wreath promise a wedding, a square and a rectangle are not good and speak of illness. The triangle is a good sign that promises well-being in all areas of life.
Along the mirror corridor
One of the scariest divinations. It must be done in complete solitude. Take 12 candles of the same size and two mirrors. One mirror should be larger than the other. Mirrors are placed so as to reflect each other. Put six candles on each side of the mirrors. It will turn out a corridor into which the girl needs to carefully peer. What the universe decides to show you, only you will know. Someone says that he sees the face of the betrothed, someone: their children or their vocation. In any case, as soon as the image appears in the mirror and you decipher it, you must say: "Chur me." Only by these actions can one correctly end the ritual and not anger fate. This is a mystical fortune-telling for Christmas with candles and a mirror.
Believe it or not what you guess during this period, it's up to you. If fate speaks of something good, then faith in a successful future will never hurt. If fortune-telling upset you a little, remember that everything is in your hands, and you can do things to
Christmas is an amazing and mysterious time, which is associated not only with a religious holiday. With the advent of Christmas Eve (January 6) and until Epiphany (January 19), girls who wanted to know their future performed a fortune-telling ritual that was passed down from generation to generation. It has long been believed that it is possible to look beyond the veil of the mysteries of time due to the presence of the souls of the dead, who at this time come from the other world. Since ancient times, there has been a belief that Christmas predictions are particularly accurate.
What conditions must be observed when fortune telling for Christmas
It was believed that not all spirits come with good intentions, so they took the divination process seriously. In this regard, rules appeared, the basis of which were the prevailing signs and superstitions.
- Before starting the ritual during Christmas time, fortunetellers completely freed their hair from hairpins and loosened them, untied all the knots on their clothes, completely removed amulets, jewelry and belts.
- It was necessary to have a clear understanding of what the girl wants to find out the whole truth about, which no one could say a word about, so as not to jinx it.
- Silence was strictly observed in the fortune-telling room, and there should also have been darkness.
- They believed that crossing limbs during divination would prevent contact with evil spirits.
Both in antiquity and today, the main goal of fortune-telling at home is to find out when the long-awaited love will meet and what kind of life awaits. Below you will find time-tested rituals of Christmas divination, thanks to which you can shed light on the secrets of a foggy future.
Divination for the future
January 13 and 18 were considered especially successful days for accurate divination.with bowls
To find out what will happen in the near future, they take cups and put salt, a ringlet, sugar, a piece of bread, an onion and a coin into each of them separately, pour a small amount of clean water into another. Closing their eyes, they stop the choice on one cup. A coin promises wealth, salt - grief, sugar - joy, a ring - marriage, bread - well-being. If a bowl of water is chosen, significant events and changes will not happen in the near future.
With candles
As a rule, a group of girls simultaneously takes part in such an interesting fortune-telling at Christmas. They prepare a bowl of water, whole hemispheres of a walnut shell and pieces of candles, the number of which should correspond to the number of fortunetellers. Cinders are placed in shells and floated on water. It is believed that the first wife will be the one whose candle completely burned out first, and the owner of the candle that burned the longest will find family happiness last. If the candle sinks, marriage is not expected.
On wax
Fortune telling on wax is one of the old folk ways to find out the near future. For the ceremony, a container with water and candle cinders are prepared. white color; both wax and paraffin are suitable - everything except for the festive ones. They are melted in a metal cup and poured into a container. The existing silhouette told about what awaits the girl.
- Having seen the outlines of the house, they promised marriage and a new household. The symbols of candles and rings had the same meaning.
- The trees seen, the branches of which are directed upward, predicted happiness, downward - sadness and longing.
- Wax falling to the bottom of the bowl like a pancake predicted a long girlhood.
- Those who saw a cave or a pit, according to popular beliefs, expected a serious illness or an early death.
- Ruins of indefinite shape - misfortune.
- Dog - you will soon get a friend.
- A clot, something round - to the imminent addition to the family, pregnancy.
By the shadow of the paper
For this, a paper sheet is used, which is crumpled to a shapeless mass (but not spherical) and placed at the bottom of an inverted plate, and then set on fire. When it burns out, they bring the plate to the illuminated wall and gently turn it so that the shadow cast by the ash takes on a certain shape. The figures were interpreted in the same way as in divination with wax and water.
By groats
To get answers to important questions, hold the left hand palm down over a bowl of grains or cereals for some time, fully focusing thoughts on the question. Then you need to take a handful of cereals and pour out, and then count the grains. If the number of grains turns out to be even, the answer is positive, odd - negative.
Based on the book
Choose literature with an interesting plot for divination, so the ritual will become more curious With the help of books, they also received answers from the spirits. To do this, they took a book and asked themselves an exciting question. Then, before opening it, they randomly called the serial number of the page and the line located on it. The answer was considered not only a specific line, but the entire semantic segment in which it was included.
On a golden chain
The fortuneteller needs to wait until everyone in the house falls asleep. Then sit down at the table and rub the chain between your palms until it becomes warm. Then you need to take it in your right hand, shake it a little and throw it on the floor with a sharp movement. According to the figure that it forms, and the upcoming events are judged.
What figures predict what:
- the circle portends an unpleasant situation;
- the triangle marks a major success in absolutely any business, especially those of the heart;
- snake - a warning about danger and betrayal;
- a flat strip symbolizes good luck and prosperity;
- a tangled knot - monetary loss and illness;
- heart means that love will be happy;
- bow - imminent marriage.
Christmas fortune-telling for the betrothed
For the ritual, you need to follow all the rules: get rid of tight clothes, hair ties, belts, chains and everything that fetters Divination for the night
Before falling asleep, they eat very salty food, which cannot be washed down. They say to themselves "Who is my betrothed, who is my mummer, he will give me a drink." The person who appeared and gave you a drink in your dreams will become your husband.
By the name
To determine which name the groom will have, with the onset of Christmas midnight, fortunetellers find out how they call the man who they meet first after leaving the house. The wife will also be called the same.
To the profession of a betrothed
The fortune-telling girl is tightly blindfolded. Objects associated with various crafts are placed on the table:
- textbook (teacher),
- photography (photographer),
- ruler (engineer),
- thermometer (doctor) and others,
- And of course, a wedding ring.
The girl must randomly take one of the items provided. If three times in a row her choice falls on the same one, the representative of this particular profession will be her beloved. If the choice falls on the ring three times, this means that next year she will definitely be married, but it is not known what specialty her husband will belong to.
For marriage by thread
The red thread prophesies an early marriage, and the black one suggests directing forces towards a career Three threads (black, red and white) are threaded into three needles and attached to the clothes on the girl's back. She must feel where they are, but must not know where which is. Then the fortuneteller needs to pull out one thread. White will be chosen - marriage is not expected in the near future, red - marriage will be concluded within a year and a baby will be born soon, black - it is better to focus on a career.
When several girls tell fortunes together, they cut off a thread of the same length for each, which is taken with the left hand, and at the same time set it on fire with the right hand. The one whose thread burns out faster than the rest will go down the aisle first. If the thread quickly went out or burned out even to half, marriage is not expected.
For apples
They take apples in the amount that corresponds to the number of intended spouses, and at the bottom of each they scratch out the first letter of the groom's last name, first name and patronymic. In a dark room, they mix the apples together and bite off a piece from each. The initials found on the most delicious fruit will indicate who will become a husband.
By map
Before the onset of Christmas night, the card with the king of the tambourine is hidden under the pillow and mentally represents the very person whose wife they would like to become. What will be seen in a dream will certainly come true.
Fortune telling on the narrowed by the mirrors
Fortune telling with mirrors is one of the most exciting, frightening and dangerous By midnight, the girl needs to go into a dark room, where there are no animals and strangers, and lock the doors with windows. The presence of one or two friends is allowed, who were not allowed to look at the reflections, approach the fortuneteller and speak.
Two clean mirrors (preferably large ones) are placed opposite each other and illuminated with two candles of equal height from both edges. It is most convenient if one of them is wall-mounted, while the second should be rotated so that a long corridor lit by the flame of candles lined up in the reflections. Then you need to look long and concentrated at the end of the created corridor, where the image of the betrothed will appear. If the fortuneteller did not lose her senses from fear and worries, when he appears, she needs to quickly shout “Chur this place!”, And after that the evil spirits, which have taken the form of a future spouse, will disappear and will not be able to cause harm.
To perform another ritual of Christmas divination using a mirror, the girl places two sets of cutlery on a table located in an empty room and prepares a towel that will come in handy later. Sitting down at the table and placing a lit candle between herself and the mirror, she calls on her fate with the words “Dressed, betrothed, come to dinner with me.” Five minutes before its appearance, the surface of the mirror will begin to noticeably darken, and then you should wipe it with a towel. Having examined the desired features of the sweet face that soon appeared, the fortuneteller should shout “Step away from this place!”, thereby driving away the spirit that has taken on human form.
On the groom with a ring
To carry out this fortune-telling, a simple glass without any pattern is required, with a flat, even bottom, which is three-quarters filled with water. Then the wedding ring is carefully placed in the middle, which should be thoroughly cleaned. After a long and continuous peering into the center of the circle through the water, you can see the face of the future spouse.
On the relationship on the needles
Needles are better to take sewing, not embroidery To carry out the ritual, you will need ordinary sewing needles of any size and a container of water. Define one needle behind you, and the number of other needles should equal the number of people with whom you are interested in relationships. It's best if they are different sizes. If you are interested in a relationship with a chosen one, take two needles: a smaller one for yourself, a larger one for him. Then you should carefully and thickly grease them with fat (fat cream, butter, lard are suitable) and lower them in turn onto the water surface. By the way they interact, you can draw conclusions.
- If all the needles go to the bottom, it means that they were not well lubricated.
- If the needle that you have secured to yourself sinks, in the coming year your environment may completely change and many of the old connections will be lost.
- The needles that remain floating on the surface symbolize the people who will remain in your environment in the new year, while connections with those people whose needles sink will be interrupted.
- Two connected needles mean union or marriage.
- Needles stuck together along the entire length - strong friendship.
For love by matches
Two matches inserted into a matchbox on opposite sides and symbolizing lovers are set on fire. If, after they burn, their heads are turned towards each other, the couple will have joint happiness.
Ritual with water on the character of the future husband
Take fresh, live water, for example, spring water. Boiled or passed through a filter does not have such power Four glasses of water are prepared, no different from each other, in one of which they put a spoonful of citric acid, in the second - honey, in the third - wine, in the fourth - salt, and mix the contents in each. The glasses are covered with a thick napkin and placed on a tray, and then, with eyes closed, they are twisted so as not to know their location. Then they turn off the light and drink water from a randomly selected glass.
A glass of salt foreshadowed a joyless boring lot, with wine - he promised a frequently drinking husband, with salt - he prophesied a sea of bitter tears. A glass of honey meant that the spouse would be the owner of a cheerful and gentle disposition.
How to find out the temper of the future spouse on the cards
Before falling asleep, four kings are placed under the pillow from a deck that no one has ever played, and they say: “Who is my betrothed, who is my mummer, dream me in a dream.” The cross king who appeared in dreams promises a husband-officer or entrepreneur, a red one - young and wealthy, a peak one - jealous and elderly, and a red one - a loved one.
Divination for children with a ring
A ring is lowered to the bottom of a mug filled with water, asking a question about future children, and left to freeze in the cold. If the ice surface is smooth and even in the morning, there will be no children. The resulting tubercles symbolize sons, cavities - daughters. Their number coincides with the number of children who will be born in the future.
Whatever answers and prophecies you receive during fortune-telling at Christmas, always remember that all good things will certainly come true, and you should not even believe in bad things. The secret of happiness is not to doubt it.
