The Clues in Your Coffee Cup: The Esoteric Art of Turkish Coffee Readings

While tea leaf reading is well-known worldwide, there is another popular form of tasseography. The art of Turkish coffee readings is also a prevalent method of drinking divination. Many insights await you from this form of fortunetelling, so get ready for guidance to a clearer path. Each reading is unique and has many interpretations. Allow us to help you discover the mysteries within your mug today! Just like tea-leaf readings need loose tea leaves, coffee readings must contain grounds. As a first step, prepare your coffee. We recommend using about a tablespoon for every 6 ounces of water, but make it to your own taste. Then, you need to boil the coffee on the stove top. If you’re used to drinking traditional Americano or drip-style coffees, then prepare yourself. This version will be much stronger! Depending on your preference, you can also add sugar to tame the bitterness. Once you have made your coffee, it’s now time to begin drinking it! Some prefer to do this while gossiping or engaging in good conversation. The Art …

This alone deserves a huge congratulations as you begin your Tarot Journey! However, one of the first things to do once you’ve made a connection with your cards is to protect your tarot deck.

Major Trends in Astrology for 2021

Major Trends in Astrology for 2021

There is no doubt that 2020 was quite a challenging year, when we had to face some extreme changes to our reality. The profound transformations will continue in 2021, but there are significant differences. Here are some of the major trends in Astrology for 2021. One of the most important is that the heavy and restrictive Capricorn energy is replaced by innovative Aquarian vibes. Aquarius is an air sign, characterized by open-mindedness, revolutionary spirit, altruism, an urge to be free from all limitations and inhibitions. It is independent, original, witty, imaginative, bizarre, and objective; a rational, aloof mind.   The Great Conjunction: Is this the beginning of the Age of Aquarius?  On the day of the winter solstice of 2020 Jupiter joined Saturn on the 0°29′ of Aquarius. According to traditional astrologers, Jupiter – Saturn cycles starting with the conjunction of the two planets are the most important celestial factors shaping the course of history. These two planets are known as the “Great Chronocrators” or rulers of the ages. As Nicholas Campion states in his famous Mundane Astrology textbook “Their cycle can be considered the …

Jupiter-Saturn Conjunction

It’s likely that you have heard the hype around the Jupiter-Saturn Conjunction on December 21 (also referred to as the Great Conjunction).

Talk to an astrologer today! Adding to the bits of magic already occurring is the fact that this will be the first time the planets meet outside of an Earth sign in over 200 years. It has been in this time frame, that the Earth saw a greater focus on land, expansion, and possessions in coordination with an awakening about how our planet cannot …
