Divination for Christmas

Magic comes to life in the cold, when the thin line between our world and the other world is best felt. Although this statement is debatable, it has the right to exist, like the ritual of divination on winter holidays - bright, mysterious, magical. At that time, even the church changes its anger for mercy towards fortune-tellers, since it is believed that from Christmas to Baptism, the impure forces will weaken, and the heavens will open, which makes the ability to predict fate cease to be a demonic occupation.

When can you guess?

It is believed that Christmas Eve (the evening before the holiday) is the best time to feel the winter magic. It is then that astral spirits and ghosts penetrate the physical world, making contact and reporting the facts of our future. Therefore, everyone is trying to look beyond the veil of years, lifting the veil of mystery with the help of Christmas fortune-telling. It happens in the evening-night from January 6 to January 7.

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

Vasiliev's evening was recognized as special, when the result is highly accurate, even prophetic. This is January 13th. No less successful in divination and January 18 - Epiphany Christmas Eve.

Preparing for divination

In order for everything to go exactly as in ancient times with grandmothers, great-grandmothers, girls should:

  • tune in a serious way;
  • loosen hair (remove hairpins, invisible, elastic bands, undo braids);
  • untie all the knots that are on the clothes (belts, belts, decorative elements);
  • remove bracelets and rings (these are not just jewelry, but amulets that protect against external intrusion and close the energy of the owner);
  • mentally fenced off from the real world;
    to formulate exactly what you expect from fortune-telling, what question you want to get an answer to.

Conditions for successful divination

Until January 14, the so-called holy evening, garbage is not swept out of the houses, so that later they can collect it together and burn it separately in the yard. So the negative energy will leave the home - illness, the evil eye, quarrels, troubles and everything else that has accumulated over the year. This is necessary so that the wish made will certainly come true on the night when the heavens open and the springs are filled with healing power.

At this time, you can also go out into the field and enjoy the incredible beauty of the heights at midnight. But such admiration is available only to natures leading a righteous life. When fortune telling, it is advisable to adhere to several rules that will make it prophetic.

1. In the room where the ritual is performed (in the bathhouse, in the room, in the senza or in the hayloft), it should be extremely quiet.

2. It is not allowed to whisper among themselves, turn on the TV, talk on the phone, listen to music, because they do not allow you to concentrate, representing unsafe pushes and breaks in contact at the time of establishing a connection with the other world. They also make it difficult to clearly formulate the question and focus on the task.

3. During fortune-telling, you can not keep your arms and legs crossed. This provokes channel overlap or overlap of several "sources" of communication.

The last point involves acting on the principle of a kinked hose, when water starts to flow drop by drop or does not flow at all. Just like a fortuneteller cannot penetrate the source of information through the barriers of crossed legs and arms.

Divination with cups

You need to take a few cups - according to the number of people present. Then pour water into one of them, and put in the rest:

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

Closing their eyes, fortunetellers choose one vessel for themselves. What turns out to be in them will become their future: water - fate without change, salt - misfortune, onions - bitter tears, sugar - joy, bread - prosperity in the house, money - profit and wealth, ring - marriage.

Divination with candles

You will need candles according to the number of people and the same number of walnut shells. Candles are lit, put in a shell and lowered into a suitable container with water. Leave to float until the candle is completely melted. The girl who burns her first will get married very soon, ahead of the gathered friends. And so - in order. But if the shell sank, it means that the unfortunate woman will not see marriage at all.

Divination in the name

The girl goes out at exactly 00.00 on the night street and asks the name of the man who met her first. The sounded name will become the name of her future betrothed.

Divination with wax

They take two candles: one is placed in a spoon (a part is enough), and the second is lit and driven from below, trying to melt the wax. Then the contents are poured into a glass filled with water. Highlighting the remaining cinder, they interpret their future according to the formed patterns.

Divination with grain or groats

You will need a jar or any convenient container filled with grains or cereals. The left palm is held open above it (side down). Then, focusing on the question, ask it. They scoop up a handful of grain and pour it onto the surface of the table, recalculate the amount. If an even number comes out, this means that the answer to the question posed will be “yes”, if an odd number - “no”.

Divination with a ring

This ritual is performed in the corridor or in the hallway (preferably at the front door that leads outside). They take the wedding ring of a married woman and roll it in turn. The girl with whom it goes straight to the exit will soon marry.

Fortune telling with a glass and a ring

Water is poured into the container and a ring is lowered to the bottom (preferably an engagement ring or your own, which is worn on the finger). Expose all this to the frost (on the balcony, in the corridor, on the terrace, etc.). At night, they bring a glass into the house and count the number of tubercles and depressions on the icy surface - they should appear clearly. The pits indicate how many girls the fortuneteller will have, the tubercles indicate the number of boys.

Divination with a book

To do this, you need a randomly taken book: you should go to the shelf, stretch out your right hand and take the first tome that comes across. Then ask aloud your question (or silently, but clearly formulate), an arbitrary page number and line. Open the book in the right place and read the prediction that has fallen. This is the answer of fate.

Divination with a needle or ring

You should stick the needle into the fabric of wool, and place the engagement ring in a glass. Then hang one or the other on a thread and slowly lower it over the man's palm. Such a simple device allows you to find out the gender of the unborn child. If there is a circular rotation, a girl is expected, if a pendulum - a boy. Complete immobility means childlessness.

Divination before bed

Dreams are the gateway to subtle matters, where the past and the future intersect. This has been used by our ancestors for a long time. According to ancient legends, it is necessary to eat salted dishes in the evening. Then, lying down in bed, make a wish to see the betrothed - he must give a glass of water.

Divination with twigs

Another option is to put a small bridge of twigs under the pillow. It is believed that the future groom will appear at night and help the girl to pass through him.

Divination by the window

When everyone is asleep, you need to turn off the light, sit opposite the closed window and listen: if they pass by with fun and whistle, then family life will be bright and rich, if vice versa - poor.

Fortune telling with a comb

Hang a comb in a room or shed. The next morning, check the strands of what color appeared there. They will look like the hair of the betrothed.

Divination with a mirror

It is considered the most mystical. You need to sit in absolute darkness in front of a mirror with a candle in the midst of midnight. An important condition is that no one else should be in the room. It is necessary to carefully look at the reflective surface. After about 5 minutes, it will fade. Then the betrothed, or rather, the devil who has taken his guise, will be reflected behind the glass. The girl should start to avoid him so that he disappears, saying "Stay away from me!". Otherwise, evil will materialize.

Divination with wax

It is necessary to pour water into a plate and put your ring without a stone there. Then - melt the wax and pour it into the center of the ring. Pay attention to the form it has taken. A flower means marriage, a beast - an enemy, a person - a friend, a star - good luck, stripes - moving.

Divination with paper

A newspaper is taken and crumpled in such a way that it turns out not a ball, but an indefinite figure with a contour. It should be burned on top of an inverted plate. The remaining ashes are a prediction for the future. Judged by the pattern in which it develops.

Divination with a chain

When everyone falls asleep, you need to take a golden chain, rub it between your palms, hold it in your right hand, shake it and throw it on the table. A circle has formed - closed troubles are expected, a streak - luck, a knot - difficulties and illnesses, a triangle - love successes, a bow - a wedding, a snake - betrayal, a heart - love.

Divination with a homemade boat

Fill the basin with water, leaving some free space. Then they hang paper strips with names or all kinds of events on the sides. You will also need a half walnut with the stub of a small candle in the center. This is an impromptu boat, which is lowered into the middle of the "reservoir". Wherever she swims, it will come true.

Divination with the King of Diamonds

You will need the appropriate card, which you need to hide under the pillow and make a wish on the man you want to see as your husband. Then go to bed. What you dream about tonight will be your future. On this night, all dreams are prophetic.
