If you told somebody in this day and age that you think your destiny can be seen from the bottom of your coffee mug or tea cup they would probably say!'you can what?' But don't worry; they would most surely contemplate your sanity. The crazier part is that people have actually welcomed tea leaf reading as a believable fortune telling ritual for centuries. This is probably due to the fact that psychiatrists were not administering psych evaluations and tossing out prescriptions to take care of delusions and stupidity at its finest. Tea leaf reading have origins leading back to primarily China and other parts of Asia. In ancient times it isn't all that hard to believe that well minded people could be sucked into this practice because there wasn't a window such as the internet or television to post in your face how crazy and unlikely to be real a practice like this is, I mean come on, people still thought the world was flat. So who was to say that the left over useless crap at the bottom of your cup wasn't a window to the universe? At the very most a tea leaf reading session should be done only by those that are less than gullible and view it as something of a hobby or social session for fun, not somebody who uses it as a 'crystal ball to view the future' or has Ms. Cleo on speed dial. If you won't be biting off your fingernails during the preparation process because you just can't wait to find out what lays ahead on the road of life for you, then by all means you should invite some friends over, boil some water and throw some loose tea leaves in without the use of a strainer, and find a comfy room to relax in and serve some hot tea. Take a few moments to take in the pleasant aroma and sip the tea while having light conversation. For giggles, you can leave a little tea in your cup to swirl around and observe where the tea leaves settle. With very little light-hearted research you can find out the tea leaf meanings of the settled leaves and see what 'the future holds'.
