When do they tell fortunes for Christmas from 6 to 7 or 7 to 8 January

There is one difficult moment for inexperienced “magi” – choosing the right dates. According to ancient beliefs, magical powers are most accessible during the border/turning-point period - on the eve of the holiday, and not during it. This means that during the Christmas and Yuletide period, ritual actions for the most accurate forecast are best carried out from January 6 to 7 - on Christmas Eve.

There’s no point in trying your luck on Christmas night; you can do everything on the rest of the night. holy days.

The history of the appearance of fortune telling on Christmastide and Christmas

In the pre-Christian era, those days that are called today Yuletide were a time of worship for the return of the power of the sun - after the winter solstice, the heavenly body lingered longer and longer in the sky. And the power of the “newborn” slant(in Old Slavic) switched to everyone who addressed magical rites, giving the opportunity to see magic, to touch the prophetic sacrament.

Our pagan ancestors believed that in these days there was divination with the question “what will happen and how?” the most promising, because on the side of the questioner are the forces bestowed by elemental (natural) spirits and the souls of those long deceased, coming in the days of the return of sunlight to the earth. There is only one “but”: you must not bargain with them, but treat them with respect - observe all the subtleties of the fortune-telling ritual.

Later, pagan rituals were changed into a Christian way. And the church strictly disciplines those who “shake the magic pendulum,” classifying fortune telling as an unforgivable sin. However, Christmas and Christmas fortune-telling have relaxations in responsibility, because even the Magi (fortune-tellers) were allowed to see the newborn Christ. And such a non-sinful loophole is worth taking advantage of, because only once a year - at a strictly allotted time - is fate ready to open up to a person.

Simple fortune telling for the future, the coming year at Christmas

A simple way to see the future is to cast fortunes with a raw egg and boiling water. Wash the egg, dry it, make two small holes on both ends, ask the question (mentally or in a whisper): “What awaits me in the coming year?” and pour/blow out the contents into the hot liquid. Judging what is expected by the silhouettes formed in boiling water:

• a figurine resembling a crown, a fish, or a house promises good luck;
• new acquaintance - humanoid contours;
• dense stripes/lines - a long journey, rich in impressions;
• a hollow circle in the form of a ring - a marriage proposal;
• the outline of the candle is marriage;
• scattered balls/dots, thin lines of incomprehensible configuration - failure of conceived dreams;
• cross - from major troubles to illness.

By the same analogy, they tell fortunes on a wax candle, allowing the wax to flow into a bowl with cold water. The poured signs (in addition to the ones mentioned above - “egg”) are deciphered as follows:

• the expressive shape of an apple - the future promises good health and the acquisition of peace and wisdom;
• a “bitten” apple, deformed - many temptations are expected, succumbing to which will lead to big problems;
• a bunch of grapes is visible - to success, stable well-being, which will develop into wealth, good friends, faithful helpers and love;
• the contours of a tree leaf (maple, rowan, birch) were formed - gossip and intrigues of enemies, envious people, all kinds of tricks;
• a pronounced figure of a dog standing on all four paws - to finding true friends or meeting old people who will always come to the rescue;
• a dog with its head raised up - you have every prospect of becoming a leader in your company, in social projects success awaits;
• a dog standing on its hind legs - the news that friends need help, but he won’t dare admit it (and he needs help, not only your relationship in the future, but also your own well-being depends on it);
• the face of a monkey, a lizard or a viper - get ready for a mean and treacherous blow from your immediate circle (usually the one who smiles the most and showers compliments upon meeting);
• dragon - all your dreams are destined to come true, the project you started is destined to be successfully completed, difficulties are resolved, you can finally wait for the desired pregnancy and a happy birth;
• large figures are combined with small ones - to financial well-being;
• an even, smooth egg - changes in your personal life, the beginning of a new, promising round of life leading to promising development.

Important! In all Christmas fortune-telling, the water must be alive - melted water, it is good if it is snow or ice brought from a river, well, spring.

An interesting and simple way of fortune telling is with a needle (“gypsy”). It easily turns into an oracle pendulum if you thread a red silk thread ± 25 cm long through it. Place a five-ruble coin under the “pendulum.” Sit at the table (do not cross your arms and legs - this will distort the source of strength), place your elbows on the tabletop. Raise the needle by the tip of the thread, fix the stationary position of the “oracle” and ask clearly formulated questions (the number is unlimited) and only those for which there can be only one answer: “yes” or “no”. Without moving your hand, but only observing the movement of the needle, decipher what is shown:

• oscillates vertically over the coin (back and forth - towards you, away from you) - “yes”;
• horizontal movement (from left to right or vice versa) – “no”;
• in a circle - the question is not formulated clearly, it needs to be rephrased (and if after this the movements continue in the same amplitude, it is better to give up the desire);
• the needle does not move - higher powers do not have an answer or are not inclined to answer.

You can also draw with a simple pencil by hand or on large sheet(A3) divide the circle into 12 equal sectors-months. Everyone sign. Stand above the circle. Close eyes. Ask the desired question. Drop the needle. In which month it falls, the desired event will come true. If it goes beyond the circle, it will, alas, remain just a dream.

You can find out what awaits you in the new year with the help of a wax candle. Light the wick from a match at 19.00 on January 7 (not on the night of 7 to 8, but in the evening!). Walk around the house (from entrance threshold) clockwise, holding the candle in front of you. Formulate your desire/plans for the year and observe both the candle flame and the change in its intensity in certain places:

• an even yellow-red glow - both plans and dreams will come true;
• the flame is crying - dark forces are opposing the fulfillment of a cherished dream/desire and most likely in the place where it began to smoke and sparkle there is an “energy funnel” - a thing with negative energy, perhaps even a lining;
• The candle goes out - reality creates a lot of obstacles on the path to success.

Important! It may happen that the candle “gets stubborn” even at the stage of lighting the fire. This is no accident. If the matches break, do not light up, or go out as they move toward the wick, it is better not to tempt fate and postpone fortune-telling. The perfume is out of sorts.

Christmas fortune telling for your betrothed or groom in a dream at home

Through dreams, the spirits of ancestors who have passed into oblivion communicate with fortune-tellers. They speak only the truth, although sometimes allegorically. But there is a rule: sleep only with your hair down, without making the sign of the cross before going to bed, by removing the cross on your body. And be sure to go to bed with your shirt/nightshirt/pajamas turned inside out. Move the pillow from one end of the bed to the other (at the feet), and lie down there.

Sock fortune telling. It is necessary to go to bed in socks. Then, saying the ritual incantation: “My betrothed, dressed up, come to me, you’re all dressed up, show yourself to me, look at me, follow my steps, find me, take off your shoes and come,” remove the sock with your right hand from your left foot.

Stick it under the pillow without clumping it. Immediately close your eyes and, without saying another word, go to bed. In a dream, the ancestors will bring the one destined by fate. And if, when you wake up, it turns out that the sock has fallen out from under the pillow and has moved onto the sheet, you can expect a wedding as soon as possible.

An ancient way to see your betrothed in a dream is to put it under the pillow wooden comb. Do not comb your hair before going to bed, but even, on the contrary, slightly tousle it and tangle your hair with your hands.

While laying out the comb, say: “My betrothed mummer, come to me, comb/comb my hair.” Immediately close your eyes and fall asleep silently. In a dream, the one whom the unmarried girl is so eager to see should appear.

Important! If, during sleepy fortune-telling, you have the feeling that someone is pulling off the blanket, grabbing your leg, shaking you, or touching your hair, you should never show concern, much less scream. You need to say three times: “Cheer me!” - the whole attack will come off (Chur - powerful Slavic god, who protects the borders between Navya and Reality, the guardian god of the entire family: both living and deceased). Only after this analyze the dream. Sign yourself with a cross and read a prayer.

Christmas fortune telling with playing cards

At Christmas and Christmas time, card magic gains special power. For it, you can use a freshly printed playing deck, or special fortune-telling cards; you need to take a new one (no one except the fortune-teller herself should touch the cards!).

If you don’t have a new deck with you (the desire to tell fortunes appeared while visiting), you need to give the old deck to an innocent girl from whose lips a love kiss has never been torn from her lips. She has to sit on the deck for at least a minute.

Fortune telling with cards before going to bed - on the character and even status of the groom/spouse. Take the kings out of the deck with your left hand, put them under the pillow with the words: ““Reveal the cards, what kind of husband will be - open it for me.” When you wake up, with your right hand take out the card that is in your hand. The meaning of kings is:

• bubi - a heartfelt friend will always be sweet and desirable, but he will not make wealth (very kind);
• spades - a money gentleman much older in age ( we're talking about about decades, not years), jealous to the point of impossibility and with a hot-tempered, explosive character;
• Kresti is a servant in every sense, both by type of activity (with uniform and shoulder straps) and by character - at home everyone will follow commands and know the rules;
• worms - wealthy, charming, hot, and young.

Deck Layout. If you decide to find out what your loved one feels for you, shuffle the cards, drawing before your eyes the image of your beloved - in detail, every facial feature, shape and color of the eyes. At the same time as thinking about your sweetheart, arrange the cards in one row from left to right (as you write) face down. There should be as many of them as there are letters in his name.

The deck should be placed next to each other, and one card should be taken from it, laying them out in layers (sequentially for each “letter” in the row). As soon as the entire deck comes out, do everything the same, but from the rightmost pile. Repeat the layout algorithm until two stacks of cards are formed. With your right hand, place them one on top of the other. With your left hand, place the cards on the table one at a time (you can’t guess on the bed!) – suit up. The last two will tell you about the feelings of the one you are thinking about:

1. Six - there is a common path/road ahead. Black suit, the chosen one is interested in you as a convenient and faithful travel companion. Red - he sees you not just as a friend, but as a very pretty girl who will brighten up his leisure time, but nothing more.
2. Seven - the hour of meeting is already close. The guy can't wait to get to know you better.
3. Eight - there will be a frank conversation, after which everyone will draw the necessary conclusions.
4. Nine is not just sympathetic, but practically in love.
5. Ten - counts on long-term relationships and is very interested in them.
6. Jack - you occupy a central place in all his thoughts and thoughts.
7. Lady - back off, his heart is given to another, relationships/flirting have no prospects.
8. King - the guy is impressed by the fact that your views on life coincide and your character traits are similar.
9. Ace - loves, and does not confess only because of uncertainty about reciprocal feelings.

You can ask the cards: will your wish come true or not? Answer questions in in this case the most senior “ranks” of the deck will be able to - four aces. They should be removed from the deck with the right hand. Then mix, closing your eyes and formulating a question. Then take one out with your left hand and put it in front of you on the table; whichever one comes up gives the answer:

• peaks - give up desire, all aspirations for it will lead to a diametrically opposite result;
• cross - there is a strong rival on the way to your dream, and she will make every effort to prevent it from becoming a reality;
• bubi - rejoice, your wish will come true, a faithful, sincere friend will help with this (even if you don’t know about him), but everything will happen only in a year;
• hearts - yes, everything will come true as planned.

Important! You can ask questions to aces only without the presence of anyone next to you. The magical layout should be carried out from 7 to 8 pm: in a room with a lit candle (the table/bedside table should be covered with a red or yellow cloth/tablecloth). It is advisable to look for answers to the most secret things, but as an exception (if you have never used such fortune-telling before), you can ask three questions with an interval of 15 minutes, but the first one should be the most important.

You need to thank the cards: lay them out face down in a circle, light a candle, and draw a circle over them three times. To shuffle. Only after this blow out the candle.

If there is a black cat/cat in the house, in Christmas and Yuletide fortune-telling the animal will help warn you of what awaits you in the coming year.

Closer to midnight, light a yellow candle from a match (under no circumstances a church candle!). Shuffle the deck. Place the cards (inside out) in a circle in a chaotic manner. Call your cat over. What cards the front paws will step on awaits in the near future. What is under the hind legs will give a forecast for the events that will happen towards the end of the year:

• worms - to love and joy, prosperity and happiness;
• tambourines - you will be proud of yourself and someone of you;
• cross - to lack of money;
• peaks - all 33 misfortunes at once, ranging from envy and gossip to betrayal and illness;
• king - a man from the inner circle is involved in the changes;
• lady - everything that happens because of the woman in the inner circle;
• jack - troubles;
• ten – events with consequences;
• nine - the financial sector will be affected;
• eight - everything is connected with upcoming conversations;
• seven - wait for a date;
• six - go on a long journey/road.

The ace stands in plain sight. It needs to be deciphered both by suit and by its placement (down or up with the “tail”), concentrating on the center of the front side:

• ace of spades - a state house is waiting (you don’t need to immediately think about prison, it could be a housing office, a passport office, a tax office);
• peaks with a heart up - very good significant changes that determine the rest of your life;
• peaks with the heart down - serious, far-reaching changes with a negative connotation;
• Bubi – positive news related to securities (both business and personal);
• worms (up) - new and bright love awaits;
• worms (down) - a revival of old feelings with a further and very serious prospect for matrimonial changes.

In company You can also guess about the future, so that it’s not so scary to “pull fate’s mustache.” Choose a central fortune teller - a girl with dark hair and, preferably, dark brown eyes. She shuffles the cards. The one to whom the fortune is told sits opposite - eye to eye. Between the two participants in the ritual, a candle should burn in a candlestick made of neutral metal or wood or glass (not in a faceted glass - the edges break information flows). The fortuneteller conceives a wish, nods to the one holding the cards in his hands, and he drags one from the deck. The answer is interpreted as follows:

• ace of spades - will not come true;
• figure of a spades - most likely not, but you can try;
• ordinary card of spades - empty troubles;
• ace of the cross - not this year;
• figure of the cross and an ordinary card - a very low probability;
• ace of diamonds - a little later than planned, but everything will come true;
• diamond figure - it will happen, but through a path of thorns (the higher the rank, the greater the difficulties);
• ordinary diamonds - for everything to come true, you need to try very hard;
• ace of hearts - will come true in full;
• jack and king - it will probably come true and quickly;
• lady - half and half;
• ordinary card - fate is on your side, but everything depends on your own efforts.

After fortune telling, you need to put a coin on the table. The fortune teller will take it upon completion of the “survey”. It is better to spend these coins on a lottery ticket or throw them away at a deserted intersection - such sacrificial ritual gratitude will be to the liking of the spirits.

As they used to guess in the old days, in Rus' before Christmas, for love

Ancient fortune telling is considered the most reliable and powerful. Most likely, this is so, otherwise how would they have survived to this day without changing the algorithm of actions. And in those ancient centuries, and now, girls really wanted to know whether she would be loved or not, what would be the name of the one who would love with all her heart and soul, where the beloved would come from.

Since the time they mastered writing, the Russians have used their knowledge in magic. On the night before Christmas, they told fortunes about their beloved's name using water, a red/yellow paraffin/wax candle, live fire, and ceramic dishes.

Using a lit candle, draw “my betrothed” in the air. Turn the light over and let the wax flow freely into a bowl of water while the phrase “the name of the betrothed appears, let me know with whom to while away the century” sounds three times. Blow out the candle. Examine the droplets, looking for ones that look like letters. If you come across one, the name will begin with it. Two or more - the darling will not only fall in love, but will also not delay the proposal.

On the night before Christmas, you can find out exactly from which side the beloved will appear. This will help shoe fortune telling with felt boots/boots/shoes (with untied laces!). At midnight, go out into the yard, take off your shoes from your left foot (without squatting, but only bending) and throw them forward - outside the yard (in your own yard - behind the gate, in a city yard - behind the path, runs along the entrance):

• where the toe went - from there the betrothed will appear;
• looks at the sky - have affairs, wait a while for marriage;
• I turned towards the house - I won’t wear a white veil this year.

For a girl who wants to know: the year promises true love or just a temporary/regular meeting, it’s worth bewitching on your hair before going to bed, turning (in a whisper, mentally) to the ancient guardian goddesses: “Lelyushka, beautiful maiden, daughter of Mother Lada, show me, tell me: whether I should be sweet, whether I should be desired and loved or not.” And so you need to repeat until the comb passes along the braids without getting tangled - smoothly and evenly. Then take it in your left hand and count the number of hairs caught on the teeth: even - there will be a long-awaited meeting, and love, and a wedding; odd – episodic novel.

Can be expanded love forecast- using water. Don’t count the stuck hairs, but collect them (comb in your right hand, hair in your left), and throw them into the water. Mix with a “paddle” – a wooden spatula. Observe the distribution in the basin/bowl (the wider the container, the more reliable the forecast):

• sailing from the center of the vessel to the owner - this year the beloved will not meet;
• headed to the opposite “side” - not just to wait for the beloved, but to prepare for the wedding troubles;
• will blur in all directions - alas, love relationship although they will be, they will be uncertain and even painful;
• tangled up in a ball, remained in the center - it is better to abandon the novel at the stage of the emergence of sympathy - a storm of passions brought chaos and troubles.

Drain the water from your hair, saying: “Forget my name, forget my house, lose track.” In a city apartment, into the toilet (you must flush it), in a village house - into the latrine, followed by pouring a bucket of water.

Fire fortune telling with the most a simple question: “Does (name) love me or not?” Light two torches or matches. Hold it in your hands nearby. Left is a girl, right is a guy:

• burnt heads lean towards each other - he sincerely loves you and you are destined to be together;
• diverged in an arc or his match turned away from yours - he doesn’t love you, no matter how hard you try;
• the left one went towards the right one, and she bent towards you (towards your face!) - the guy likes him very much, but he does not dare to have an affair, he needs to be carefully pushed into a relationship;
• the male match leans in the opposite direction (away from the face!) - he noticed you, but doubts the necessity of the relationship, does not believe in its future.

The flame also matters. The tree instantly engulfs the tree - the rapid development of events; it goes out before reaching the middle - the sluggish course of the relationship. If it doesn’t light up right away, it’s not your person.

Bridge- a girl’s fortune-telling for meeting her beloved. For it you need twigs from a broom (not worn out, but far from new) or thin branches of a tree growing near the house - on the eve of fortune telling, cut off any, excluding aspen, fir, pine, fir, poplar. Ask the tree: “Forgive me, I’m not taking it out of disgrace, but I want to see my fate, help me.”

Fill a bowl with water. Place three branches/twigs in a bridge over the neck. Place the structure under the bed, whisper three times: “Only for my beloved to lead me across the bridge, to find love with him, show up, appear, appear to me in a dream.” Go to bed immediately.

If you see a young man, a child (boy) - you will meet love this year - good and bright. An older person – your loved one has been around for a long time, but for some reason you haven’t noticed him in your immediate circle. Perhaps the night guest will name you, and if he takes you across the bridge, there will be a wedding.

Important! Tune yourself before going to bed so as not to agree to go anywhere further, especially if the dream guest persistently beckons somewhere. Is it dangerous.

Old Russian methods of fortune telling for Christmastide

Christmastide lasts more than one day. So, there are plenty of opportunities to find out the details of next year. And our ancestors very actively used the prophetic “door”, looking behind it all the way to Vodokreshcha.

In almost two weeks, together with a group of friends, relatives, alone, you can tell fortunes about fate, about love, about children, about marital relationships. In the modern world, these simple magical actions still work flawlessly if you trust them, casting aside doubts.

In Rus', Saracen millet was credited with a lot of magical properties, because it grows in two “dimensions” at once - in water and earth, and even sunlight feeds, producing crops only when warm. That's why tell fortunes on rice- a sure way to see the future, yes-no questions. You can ask them no more than a dozen times.

Place the rice in a cloth bag. Place a lit candle nearby. Scoop up a handful of rice with your left hand (without looking) while simultaneously formulating a question (in a whisper) and asking (loudly!) “Yes or no?” Open your fist over the table. Count the grains spilled onto the countertop: an even number is an unconditional “yes”, an odd number is, alas, no.

Needle and fat. Take a large sewing needle and coat it well with a piece of lard. Immediately lower them into the water (in the center of the vessel) and watch their movement:

• sank to the bottom - there will be trouble in the form of prolonged or sudden illnesses;
• come together - to the nearest marriage;
• surfaced side by side (in parallel) - to meet a loved one and have an even relationship;
• went their separate ways different sides– don’t expect either love or marriage.

Pull the needles out of the water with a spatula - not with your hands.

Buckwheat and rings will help identify the head of the family. Take 7 real ones (that type of fortune telling when silver and gold are allowed, even generously decorated with stones), 2 homemade ones. They used to be made of paper and dross from the forge. Now the scale is replaced with foil (cooking foil, chocolate/candy wrapper).

Open the package of buckwheat. Pour into a wooden/paper bucket. Mix the rings with the grain until they disappear at the bottom. The number of fortune tellers may be slightly smaller than the number of rings or equal to the number of jewelry. At exactly midnight, each person “dives” her hand into the bucket and pulls out the first ring she comes across:

• wedding ring (its role can be played by a smooth gold ring) - marriage will be equal, calm, stable;
• gold with a precious stone - there will be material well-being, but it will turn into a “golden cage”;
• silver jewelry with a pebble - the husband will be sentimental, very sensual, romantically vulnerable;
• smooth silver - a strong marriage without betrayal and pulling the dominant “blanket” over oneself;
• copper jewelry (metal) - both morally and financially it will be either thick or empty;
• glass - the marriage is fragile, and the husband is the commander of the house, a weakling with inflated ambitions in society and at work;
• wooden decoration - the husband, alas, is an uncouth block: rude, insensitive, stubborn, with an eternal claim to dominance;
• paper - the sweetheart will gladly give the reins to his wife, but not in order to throw off his responsibilities, but to make her feel comfortable;
• from scale (foil) - the most unsuccessful alliance with a tyrant, an aggressive boor, who easily raises his hand against all family members, including children.

Girls can only participate in fortune telling once during the entire Christmas period. Tempting fate twice, hoping that the previous prophecy was wrong - taboo!

Cats have been living in human homes for a long time. With their help, thousands of years ago married women and unmarried girls used to tell fortunes, and even guys did not shy away from resorting to cat prognosis.

Fortune telling is as simple as possible, but it needs to be carried out only if there is no one else nearby except the animal, since the desire is spoken out loud. Formulate (only once!) what you want to get this year, and then call the cat (not with goodies, but just “kitty-kitty”). If he crosses the threshold, answering the call, with his right paw, nothing will come true. If he runs fast and steps with his left, everything will happen.

Group fortune telling. Collect iconic items and stuff them in front of everyone under opaque containers (vintage clay pots can be replaced with modern utensils: pots, disposable paper cups). Each questioner leaves the room, the rest move hidden objects in a chaotic order. Then the person who came out is called, he points to the container he likes with his right hand. Turn the pot over and see what you find:

• coins (use only yellow) - for year-round financial profit;
• sugar (lump) - to a carefree and easy life;
• salt - difficult trials lie ahead;
• handkerchief - to tears;
• ring (without stone) - for a quick marriage;
• key - leaving the parental nest or moving, buying a home;
• candle stub - to loneliness;
• mirror - to an interesting acquaintance;
• scissors - to monetary losses;
• a glass - a rich year for feasts for a good reason.

On the night of St. Vasily for girls getting married (especially if the wedding day has already been set) would do well to know; what married life will be like. Extreme fortune telling – snowy.

Closer to midnight, go out into the yard. Find an untouched area of ​​snow. Take off your outerwear, remaining in your shirt (unfasten your bra). Lower your back/fall into the snow, whispering: “These and those forces that have come and come to life, tell me how I will live with this, who should I marry?”

Carefully stand up without resting your elbows and palms. Dress in silence and immediately go into the house (you can dress in the house, the main thing is not to disturb the silence). As soon as dawn rises, visit the dent created by the body, analyzing what you see:

• angular imprint - the husband lays down softly and sleeps hard - too much aggression and humiliation;
• blurred trace - eccentric, extremely unbalanced and rude;
• clear - there will be romance, love warmth, and affection - complete harmony.

Important! After the trace is imprinted, you cannot even say “oh” and look around: neither furtively nor directly.

True Christmas fortune telling under the pillow for money and pregnancy

At the turning point of the year - on the eve of Christmas, you can find out whether financial luck will turn its face or the back of your body, whether the long-awaited pregnancy will come. To have more confidence in the veracity of the prophecy, you can use a reliable “portal” - a pillow and sleep.

For the simplest financial fortune telling, collect coins of different denominations (from kopecks to rubles), place under the pillow with your right hand. Undress to your shirt (pajamas with elastic bands will not work here). Say: “wealth respond, cling to your hands.” Go to bed.

When you wake up, stand up/sit down on the bed. Raise the pillow without opening your eyes, take the first coin you come across (no need to cheat in front of you):

• yellow coins of small denomination - to flimsy profits (less than 10 kopecks - to financial poverty);
• ruble white - everything will remain as it was;
• ten rubles will be enough for a sandwich with good butter all year round.

A ritual look into the future can be done with drawn money. Cut 15 pieces of paper. Leave 10 clean. On 5, draw with a simple pencil (you can use ink and a pen, but not a ballpoint pen) monetary symbols of both Russian and foreign currencies.

Place it under your pillow. When falling asleep, think about finances in the future. In the morning, run your left hand under the pillow and pick up as many notes as possible in a handful. See what happened:

• a lot of empty notes - a lot of difficulties, and no profit;
• equally with and without signs - ordinary salary stability, but nothing more;
• There are more drawn signs - the wallet will be tight, bold decisions awaiting you in material matters, bringing good dividends.

You can find out whether you are destined to conceive a child in the coming year or not using a freshly printed deck of cards. The woman puts the deck under her pillow (she should not be wearing any clothes other than a simple shirt, Jewelry remove!) and accurately formulates the question: “Will I be able to get pregnant this year?” or “Should I be pregnant next year?” Go to bed leaving a lit candle on the table.

In the morning, without talking to anyone, without opening your eyes, take out the deck with your right hand. To shuffle. Draw a card with your left: black suit - no, red - yes. The “rank” also matters - the higher it is, the sooner the long-awaited time will come.

Real stories, who told fortunes about children

New and experienced mothers often share memories of the happiest and most amazing events in their lives - the birth of children. And also the events that preceded them. And, surprisingly, many are associated with fortune telling.

Galina, Ogurtsovka:

We used to light the stove; there was a lot of wood for kindling. The mother-in-law, waiting for her grandchildren, suggested old way fortune telling - on a log. She said this: “if you pull out something smooth, the child will be calm and obedient, flexible, rough - you run after the restless one. Just a piece of wood will fall - the birth will be easy, with difficulty, if it gets caught on something - you will suffer. A voluminous, long log - for a large baby. A blackened tree is a dark-haired child, a light tree is for blond hair.

I used it three times before Christmas and three times gave birth to such children as fate predicted for me. She always approached the woodpile with her eyes closed with her backside and pulled the log she came across. The first one was birch (I am red-haired, my husband is brunette), smooth, medium-sized, and immediately stretched out. Svetlanka was born: fair, calm, weighing 3.5 kg and height 50 cm. The birth was easy. My natalka is dark, like an elongated log, fidget is rough, small is a short log. She gave birth for a long time - the log got caught on the next one.

Ignat was also born dark - and here fortune-telling did not disappoint, he was hectic, but obedient. It’s hard to believe, but the bark was peeling off down to exactly half the log. Large (almost 5 kg) - a heavy piece of wood, but it was born in such a way that it did not even have time to experience pain - it was easy.

Zhanna, Khabarovsk:

We were very young, we were guessing at eavesdropping - we stood under the windows of the neighbor’s hut and waited to see who would speak first. Matvey Ignatievich spoke. A man's voice speaks to a boy. I forgot about it, and then somehow I met my friends ten years later, my Andreika had already grown up. They tell me: “You heard Uncle Matvey, but Marinka is ours - Aunt Olga. Christmastide didn’t lie.” And we really have a son and daughter with her.

Anna, Strugi-Krasnye:

We are before Epiphany with married friends on our wedding rings guessed. They put them in small glasses. They were put in the freezer with the words: “Who will be born?” A few hours later we looked at how frozen it was. I had an ice cube with a bumpy surface - Roman was born, Irina’s ice looked as if something had pulled it in - with a hole. Lenochka was born. A Mashina is a glass with ice with a smooth crust. She didn't get pregnant that year.

Marina, Samara:

She told fortunes in the bathhouse, whipping her body with a birch broom soaked in water. While she was whipping me, she asked about the number of children in the marriage. After the steam room, I counted how many leaves stuck to my stomach. There were two whole ones and one fragment. I had two children and, alas, had one miscarriage.

Fortune telling at Christmas at home using a wish on paper

You can diagnose the future by guessing on your own notes. On Christmas night, write down your desired/possible events on a piece of paper. Cut up notes. Place it around the room within a visible perimeter. Prepare a pebble (pick up on the river bank, near a lake on the beach, in the forest - just not at an intersection) or a whole coffee bean or a coin (definitely yellow!). Close your eyes and ask, “What does the coming year promise me?” and throw the selected (one!) item up. See where it fell:

• specifically on the note, what is written on it will come true,
• nearby - you need to make a lot of effort to make it come true or, conversely, so that it does not come true (if something bad is written there),
• between two notes - you have to set priorities, abandoning one of the desires or moving its implementation to the future.

The same notes can be used in another paper fortune telling - with water. Roll each strip with writing into a roller/tube, put it in a deep bowl/pan/basin, and fill with water. The piece of paper that pops up is a forecast for the fulfillment of a wish. It is believed that it will definitely come true.

The third option with cut strips with notes is to set them on fire (one at a time) on a white dish from a candle, asking the question “will it come true or not?”:

• the flame completely incinerated the note - everything will be as you want;
• burnt down to the middle - either not, or only partially;
• went out immediately - no;
• If you put out the fire yourself, it’s not destined to come true at all.

Christmas fortune-telling and predictions related to fire

Fire is not only an elemental force, but also a powerful conductor between the real and the unknown world. With its help (with proper handling and interpretation), the most hidden secrets are revealed. Ancient predictions are especially powerful.

Shadow gallery. In a dark room without drafts and a wide open window, light a candle. Place a white sheet of paper (not glossy or uncoated) crumpled into a tight ball on a white flat plate. Set it on fire. Place the candle so that the shadow from the paper flame is cast on a bare (without nails or decor) wall (strictly symmetrical), dancing images - a realistic film from the future. The final frame is the shadow of a burnt paper ball.

Everything seen is interpreted associatively - what first came to mind when looking at a figure, outline, is what is expected. But the important thing is not to get distracted, not to focus on one thing, but to watch the “movie” to the end.

Important! Use a progressive viewer - record the images you see on a voice recorder. This way, it’s easier to form a three-dimensional picture.

If no associations arise, use the typical interpretation:

• tower - career success, promotion;
• the image of a witch is a female rival and even an enemy, flashing a smile in her eyes, and weaving spider traps behind her eyes;
• gate - a quick change of housing is possible (both purchase and profitable rent);
• dove - the problem/conflict that has tormented you until now will be resolved in the best and peaceful way, the long-awaited calm will come;
• mountains with frequent and high peaks - obstacles and numerous difficulties;
• tree - fate sends good luck;
• baby stroller/cradle – the family will grow;
• home – stability of the family hearth;
• hedgehog - you have more resources than you think, act and everything will work out;
• star - a blessing for accomplishments of various kinds;
• snake - an insidious enemy is preparing a treacherous stab in the back;
• hare - problems will go away faster than you think if you solve them without delay;
• ring - (for an unmarried girl) for a wedding, for a married girl - problems have surrounded you, let them go, break the vicious circle;
• crown - fame is just around the corner, recognition is very close, you will achieve both;
• cat - you hold on to the past too much; as long as you are attached to it, there will be no movement forward;
• cross - to a serious illness with bad consequences;
• rat - it is better to refuse any deals and promising contracts;
• bag - to solid profit and financial independence.

There is no point in devoting anyone to the secret of fortune-telling - it will lead to problems and interception of fortune.

Burning boat. Fortune telling, foreshadowing what is planned will come true. For it you will need paper cut into strips with a short note about the person wishing to do so (for example, “a profitable job”, “meeting a loved one”, “vacation in the south”, “buying an apartment”). The notes need to be secured to the sides of a wide vessel - a basin/bucket/pan (placed on glue or tape) with water. On nutshells or flat chips (take only blanks from deciduous trees, except hornbeam, aspen, poplar) plant a candle stub. Set it on fire, set the boat sailing, slightly pushing it towards the middle of the “reservoir”. Whatever note the “ship” nails to will come true. If it turns over, nothing you want will come true in the coming year.

Match fortune telling. At the very beginning of Christmas time, you can find out the gender of an already conceived or just planned child. Pour “live” water into a basin/bowl (there should be no pictures on the container). Light a match (can be from a stove or fireplace fire). Take her in right hand. While she is completely burning out, ask: “Who will be born to me, who will I rock in my arms?” Throw the burnt match into the water. If it floats up, you need to wait for a girl, if it drowns, a boy will be born.

A candle for relationships. With the help of a white, red or yellow candle you can find out what kind of relationship you will have with your husband this year. Light the candle with a regular match and watch the flame:

• smooth – good and calm time;
• frequent outbursts - a man is tormented by some secret, which will entail family scandals and doubts;
• the flame leans to the left - he has someone on his side;
• to the right - the man is tired of your suspicion and jealousy, is ready for a serious conversation like: “if you don’t stop, I’ll leave”;
• the candle is crying with wax - you will shed tears all year long;
• it smokes, crackles - a quick separation threatens, or a love spell has been cast on your spouse, drying out - negative magic.

Flame can predict not only life together, but also love relationships. The decoding is similar.

Two matches. Prophecy for the year: a short question - a specific answer. You need a tea glass with rounded walls filled with water, two matches, a candle (white or yellow).

Look through the water in the glass at the candle flame, formulating a desire. Light matches from the fire. Ask: “will it come true or not?” Throw into the water:

• swim in parallel - the prognosis is good;
• crossed - there are a lot of obstacles on the way to desire that are beyond your control;
• fell apart - someone from your inner circle is stirring up trouble, not wishing you well;
• blurred and trying to drown - don’t expect anything good.

Christmas fortune telling at home for children and married people

Children also want to take part in the mysterious Yuletide sacrament. And marriage is not a reason to close yourself off from magic. Desires can be combined and a family fortune-telling can be arranged.

Important! Where children are involved, only positivity is needed. There should not be any negative forecasts in messages addressed to higher powers.

It is better to carry out divination in a semi-dark room, but do not turn off the lights completely so that the sacrament does not frighten the children.

Pick up saucers without drawings with broken and intertwining lines. Under each one put an object foreshadowing the future. Mix like thimbles. Invite your child to choose any saucer with his eyes closed. And then look together at what it portends:

• sweets (sweets, cookies) - life will be sweet and smooth all year;
• cars, used train/plane tickets - a sea of ​​adventures and a journey filled with positive emotions;
• shell - a trip to the south;
• costume jewelry - the near future is generous with pleasant surprises and desired gifts;
• smiling painted faces - a lot of fun awaits.

You can add something else of your own, inventing a specific meaning for it. In any case, a mysterious forecast is always interesting.

Any member of the family, guests who come to the child will gladly take part in fortune telling on “ it will come true or it won’t come true” with cereal. To arrange everything as simply as possible: fill a deep bowl with rice or millet, or you can also use buckwheat or pearl barley. Use a mandatory attribute - a candle lit from a match (behind the container). Each of those present can put their hands deep into the rump, making a wish to themselves (silently), and then asking out loud: “yes or no?”

All that remains is to decipher the message from the future. If an odd number of grains sticks to your hands, most likely everything will be the way you want; an even number means the answer is negative.

Citrus prophecy. Give everyone an orange/tangerine/grapefruit, washed in “living” water. Before peeling, think about your innermost thoughts. To the command: “Start!” peel the fruit and count the slices: an even number of slices - wait only for the best, an odd number - the deadlines are postponed to another time.

Eat fruits with a positive result immediately, and eat fruits with a negative result slowly. This way, the obstacle to your dream will be destroyed.

What awaits in the very near “tomorrow” will tell book magic(you need to prepare a good book that is familiar to the children). Choose a fortune teller. Give him a piece of art. Each child names the page and line number (you need to add: “top”, “bottom”). The fortune teller opens the indicated page and reads out the book solution.

If the clear meaning of what is read and desired is violated, come up with a funny decoding, adding something funny of your own.

On Christmas and Christmastide, you can guess as much as you like. The main thing is to treat the answers adequately, to believe them, discarding unnecessary thoughts, or vice versa: to perceive everything as a nice, good joke. The choice always remains with the fortuneteller. And yet there is one thing in common: it is better to use a magical period of time at least once than never, regretting it later.

All Orthodox Christians celebrate the Nativity of Christ on January 7 (according to the old style - December 25).

The history of Christmas is very interesting and dates back to the first Christian centuries. In those days, by order of Caesar Augustus, a census of the people was taking place, so Joseph and his wife Mary, who carried a baby under her heart, like law-abiding citizens, walked from Nazareth to also take part in the census.

They were very tired, but they were unable to find accommodation for the night at an inn, so they stopped in a stable, where the woman gave birth to a boy named Jesus (Savior). At this time, a guiding star appeared in the sky, which was noticed by the Magi. Walking along it, they came with gifts - gold (as to the King), incense (as to God) and myrrh (as to a person who was soon to die) in order to leave their instructions and predictions to the chosen one. At the same time, an Angel flew to the shepherds in the field to tell them about the birth of the Savior and told them where to look for him. The shepherds found him and began to glorify him.

Since then, a big church holiday began to be celebrated - Nativity. They prepare for it for 40 days, adhering to the Nativity fast from November 28 to January 6, which prohibits eating food before the appearance of a star in the sky. She personifies the guiding star that showed the way to the Magi. Although Christ was born on January 6, but since the pains of birth were long, it was customary to begin the celebration on January 7 and celebrate another three days after.

How Christmas was celebrated

On the evening of January 6, on the eve of Christmas, children and adults went from house to house and began singing carols, singing along the way songs telling about the birth of Christ. They also wished everyone happiness and prosperity, not forgetting about the health of the owners and bountiful harvest. Carolers were thanked with coins and sweets. It would have been a sin not to let them in.

At night, the future groom will come in a dream and comb the girl’s hair.

Take three thimbles, under which put a flower, a ring and a ribbon. Then, with your eyes closed, mix them, spin around your axis three times and take one of the thimbles. If there is a flower under it, a loved one will appear, a ring means a wedding, a ribbon means you’ll be a girl for another year.

Fortune telling at Christmas on a log

On the night of January 6-7, go into the barn, close the doors and take any log. Then examine it in the light. Whatever it will be, that is what the future is expected to be. Smooth, with thin bark - a calm course of life. Thick, with rough bark - troubles are expected, as well as a meeting with a dishonest person. Partially peeled bark means minor adversity, all of it means heaviness and misfortune. The log cracked lengthwise means illness. A big one – a new addition to the family. Knotty - time will be troublesome.

Yuletide and Christmas fortune-telling for the future (the coming year)

Most often, on Christmas night from January 6 to 7, people make fortunes for the future; below I offer several simple Christmas fortune-telling that will help you make predictions (using cups, candles, rings, a piece of paper, buckwheat shells).

Christmas fortune telling with cups

For the ritual, it is necessary to prepare as many cups as people will guess; ideally, they should be from the same set, but if there are none, then we choose from what is available. Next, we lower into each cup: into the first ring, into the next bread, into the third coin, sugar and onion, salt. Pour into the last cup a small amount of water. Now we blindfold the fortune tellers and they must take turns approaching the cups and, with their eyes closed, choose one of them. The thing that will be in the chosen cup will predict your near future.

• Ring - imminent wedding;
• Coin - financial prosperity awaits you in the coming year;
• Bread - good sign, indicating well-being and a stable situation;
• Sugar - a fun and carefree life awaits you;
• Onion - the fortuneteller who pulled out a cup with onions will experience tears in the coming year;
• Salt - predicts misfortune;
• A bowl of water is a neutral symbol; large-scale changes are not expected in the coming year.

Fortune telling on Christmas night with candles

To carry out the ritual we need a bowl of water and half a shell walnut, candle stubs or small candles. We take in the amount of people participating in fortune telling. All fortune tellers take one walnut shell and a candle, insert the candle into the shell and put it into the water. Then the girls watch the burning candles:

• Whose candle burns out faster will get married first.
• the girl whose candle burns longest will be the last to marry;
• If one of the fortune tellers' candle drowns, then she will remain an old maid.

In the name of the betrothed

This is one of the simplest Christmas fortune telling, which is performed at midnight on Christmas Day from January 6 to 7. At exactly 12 o'clock at night, girls must go out and walk along the road until they meet a man. One of the fortune-telling girls should ask the man’s name - that’s what her betrothed will be called.

On paper

This fortune telling has been known for a long time and is very popular, since everything that is predicted comes true. This is fortune telling for Christmas on January 6-7 for the future on paper. For the ritual, you need to prepare a sheet of paper and crumple it thoroughly. After this, the paper must be placed on a saucer and set on fire. At this time, the fortuneteller should watch the shadows cast on the wall from the burning paper. We use our imagination and try to predict the future - we figure out what a shadow could mean, what it looks like, and what kind of near future it predicts.

Christmas fortune telling with wax and water

For this Christmas fortune telling, you need to take two wax candles. We place one candle on a spoon and light the second one. Heat the spoon with a burning candle to melt the wax. After the wax melts, quickly pour it into a glass filled with cold water. And from the resulting figure we try to unravel the secrets of our future.

The answer to the question is “Yes” or “No”

If you are tormented by some question and you cannot make a decision or find an answer to it, then this fortune telling will definitely help you. For the ritual, you need to prepare a jar of cereal or grain and hold your left hand over it, palm down. Next, we mentally ask a question, with our eyes closed, take a handful of grain and pour it onto the table. We open our eyes and count the number of grains poured on the table. If the number is even, then the fortune telling answer is “yes”, if it is odd – “no”.

On the ring

Fortune telling girls stand in the hallway and take turns rolling the ring. Whose ring rolls further - that girl will be the first to get married.

By gender and number of future children

For this Christmas fortune telling you will need a ring, a glass and water. On the night of January 6-7, we pour water into a glass, put the ring in it and put it out in the cold, after which we go to bed. In the morning we take a glass into the house and examine the surface of the frozen water. Based on the surface of the ice that has formed in the glass, we predict the gender of future children. If there are more tubercles than pits, it will be a boy. If it's the other way around, it's a girl. After this, we count the number of tubercles and pits. The number of pits shows how many girls there will be, the number of tubercles shows how many boys there will be.

To dream

On the night before Christmas, a girl puts the king of diamonds under her pillow. Before falling asleep, the fortuneteller asks the king to show in a dream the person she is to marry.

Christmas fortune telling

Another proven Christmas fortune-telling for the future - we put a piece of paper under the pillow, on which we first need to write predictions (love, luck, wedding, death, money, etc.) After the piece of paper is hidden under the pillow, we go to bed. In the morning, as soon as we woke up, we pulled out one of the pieces of paper. What is written in it and predicts the future in the coming year will be the most important event of this year...

Christmas fortune telling on the night of January 6-7 for girls

A holiday like Christmas is perhaps one of the most mysterious dates in Orthodox calendar, the atmosphere of this day, in itself, is already filled with special magic.

You can find out the real truth about future events if you carefully prepare for the ritual, both morally and physically:

1. It is best to cast a spell in the evening, at midnight or after midnight - this is important for the accuracy of the prediction.
2. When preparing the room, do not forget to turn off the overhead lights and all electric lamps - the room should be twilight and only candles can be used. They can be different colors, depending on what information you need to obtain.
3. It is unacceptable to make noise or talk loudly; those who do not believe in fortune telling or have come to have fun in this way should be sent out immediately.
4. When fortune telling, it is necessary that the head and body be completely freed from unnecessary objects and decorations - in this case, belts, tight clothes, jewelry and hair clips. Any knots must be unraveled and loosened, otherwise the oracle - the night spirit from the astral dimension, who will answer questions, will not be able to reach your consciousness and give an intelligible answer.
5. To be fully accessible to the Universe, all channels of communication with it must be open, therefore, in any position of the body it is forbidden to cross arms and legs.

A dream is the very bridge between two worlds that allows soul mates to meet and get to know each other. Let's see how you can tell fortunes for the Christmas holidays, the main thing is that everything is done correctly.

Christmas fortune telling on cards

Before going to bed, the girl puts cards under her pillow - four kings - and at the same time utters the words “Betrothed, mummer, dream in my sleep.” After these words, the girl goes to bed. In a dream, a groom in the form of one of the kings will come to a fortune-telling girl:

• King of Diamonds - the husband will be young and rich
• Cross King - the girl will marry a military man or official
• King of Spades - the fortuneteller will have a jealous and old husband
• The King of Hearts is a beloved and desired husband

Christmas fortune telling by keys

Fortune telling girls on the night of January 6-7 at midnight hang their keys and brush out the window and watch. If one of the passers-by moves them, they immediately ask his name. It is believed that the name that the person calls is the name of the betrothed girl who is telling fortunes.

Fortune telling for Christmas on the tablecloth about the age of the groom

This Christmas fortune-telling must be carried out at midnight from January 6 to 7. The fortune-telling girl goes out into the yard, takes a tablecloth into which the old woman pours snow. The girl, holding the tablecloth by the edges, swings it and says, “Field, field, white snow in the middle of the field. Bark, bark, little dog, find out, find out, betrothed!”
At the same time, the fortuneteller listens to the barking of dogs:

• hoarse barking of a dog - the girl will have an old husband
• loud barking - young husband
• thick, bass barking - a girl will meet a widower

Telling fortunes for Christmas with a comb under the pillow

It is important to know how to tell fortunes for your betrothed (groom) at Christmas; the successful outcome of the prediction depends on this. The basic requirements for the ceremony are a new comb or comb purchased in advance, preferably made of wood. No one is allowed into the room where the ritual is being held until the morning, and you are also not allowed to talk to anyone. Otherwise, the same rules apply as for other ceremonies.

Procedure:

• you should go into the room;
• light a candle and, looking in the mirror, comb your hair;
• it is necessary to imagine the desired lover during this procedure;
• When you go to bed, you need to put a comb under your pillow with the words: “My betrothed, mummer! Come, comb your hair with my comb”;
• In the morning they inspect the comb - if hairs appear on it, this means a meeting with the other half; the future groom is determined by the color of the hair whether he is blonde or brunette.

Another option involves the same actions, but this time you need to ask the mummer to comb his hair. If you dreamed that a young man was combing your hair, then a fateful meeting will occur within 12 months.

If you didn’t dream anything and there is no hair on the comb, most likely the time for the meeting has not come yet. But there may be other reasons:

• outsiders were told about the upcoming ritual;
• an old comb was used;
• The tightly closed door to the room did not allow the chosen one to enter.

Also, the reason for the failure is the ceremony not held on the eve of Christmas.

Fortune telling for the New Year and Christmas 2020 using glasses

You can cast a spell on future events with your girlfriends using six glasses with water poured into them. The following items should be placed in each - a match, a piece of bread, a little sugar, salt, a ring and a coin.

Each of the girls must close their eyes or tie them with a scarf and choose one of the glasses.

The contents will tell you about your future fate:

• coin - for money;
• ring - for early marriage;
• bread - to prosperity in the house;
• sugar - to good luck and prosperity;
• match - to the birth of a child;
• salt - to unpleasant events and tears.

After each choice, you need to rearrange the glasses, changing their places.

Fortune telling for the groom and the future using paper and candles
