I have been drinking tea since I was 12 when I tasted my Dad's tea and I have been drinking it the same way for the last 27 years. I find coffee has too much caffeine and makes me jittery, the smell is nice.
Occasionally I add some loose leaves to the cup along with my tea bag so I can see what images will form in the bottom, an activity known as Tasseography. It is a divination or fortune-telling method that interprets patterns in tea leaves, coffee grounds, or wine sediments.
So while I stir my tea I think in my mind or sometimes say out loud softly if I am alone: "Tea of power, tea of power show me what I need to know". I don't do leaves very often as I don't want to over use the divining energies and appear greedy.
One time I gave my sister a cup of tea with some leaves in the bottom. After she drained it I looked at it and a distinctive image, a bunch of chickens running about the bottom of the cup. No mistake, they were obviously chickens. As soon as I told her what I saw she gave me a surprised look, she was attending a Hen's Night that night! (For the overseas readers, Hen's Night is a Bachelorette Party).
Today I had the idea of sharing what I see in the tea leaves in the bottom of the cup. The mornings get a bit busy here so I always take a photo of it for studying later but I never get round to it but most of the time I can make a mental note of what the first images I see are.
This is the leaves for today:
Right away I saw a woman in the bottom of the leaves (circled in red). She was dancing with her right leg firmly down in front facing forward and her left out behind her. She also had her right arm on her hip and her left behind her hanging down while looking over her left shoulder. Her hair was in a ponytail:
The loads of floaty image above her could be anything, a windfall of financial gains, luck ideas, absolutely anything but what ever it is it will be sudden as the front part is close to her head and flat edged and not pointed (a gradual beginning):
Will see what happens in the near future and if anything fits this description I will post an update.
