Verdict: I mean, let’s be serious, for most all of us the mere mention of the term fortune-telling brings the picture of a gypsy sitting in front of an orb or a tarot card reader with her assortment of cards. But did you know that the tea that you drink can tell a lot of stories about your future?

Tasseography, or the art of reading tea leaves, uses one of the simplest ingredients – tea leaves – in order to gain insight into the near future. Opening on the history of Tasseography and closing 14 chapters later on some wonderful tea recipes, The Ancient Art of Tasseography: How to Read Tea Leaves and Coffee Grounds from author Kylie Holmes is a genuinely intriguing prose written about the subject to hand.

As we learn, drinking tea has been a popular habit for centuries. Of course, Herbology also riffs poetic about the varied benefits of drinking different types of teas. In Ancient China the art of tea leaf reading was introduced centuries ago.

Furthermore, the name comes from the French word Tasse which translates to cup and the Greek word graph which means writing. The process involves reading the pattern of tea leaves formed in the cup after the person drinks from it.

Traditionally, Tasseography would have been passed down through family generations, but these days it just isn’t seemingly done that way. Indeed, thanks to social media, there are now many resources available like books and online websites to assist you to learn about Tasseography, so can can also find a course to learn this ancient art online or even at your local new age shop, if you are lucky enough to have one close.

Regardless, and getting back on track, once you get to Chapter 7 in this book to hand, the one in which you are taught how to do the readings yourself, at the very beginning if you try to read the symbols yourself, you might well need a while to get the hang of it. So please be patient and rotate the cup in order to perceive the symbols from various angles. There is no right or wrong way to pick out symbols. The ones that you can see are the answers that you seek.

The whole process might seem unbelievable in the first go, but it definitely is a great mental exercise. So it is totally worth giving it a shot and thus buying this book is a no-brainer, trust me.

And in what is something that I personally love about this, you get to clear out your thoughts and focus on the one thing that you wish to have answers for.

Whether you believe the results or not, you are sure to feel relaxed once a tea and coffee reading session is done. Track your results and find out if they turn out to be right, but don’t overlook Chapter 8 as it features a dedicated list of characters (a Dictionary of Symbols, to be exact) to look out for; and thus is all you need to guide you, my friends.
