How to use your paper fortune teller:

Take into account these 4 steps to reveal what awaits and make the best decisions.

  1. Now that you’ve made your predictions game, it’s time to ask someone a question. If you have made one with random sentences, the person can start the game by choosing one of the words written on the outside.
  2. Once the person has asked their question out loud (or silently), have them choose one of the colors and open and close the fortune teller with their hands, once for each letter of the chosen color.
  3. For example: "B, L, U, E," you open it one way and then the other way four times, which corresponds to the number of letters in the word "blue."
  4. Have the person choose one of the numbers visible on the inside and open and close your creation as many times. You can get your player to choose a number again and continue as long as you like. Ask the person to choose one last number and open the corresponding tab. That's the answer to the question!

🚨 Mercury Retrograde Alert: Starting June 30, the Past Comes Back!

Mercury retrograde is back, and this time, it isn’t just here to scramble your messages, your appointments, or your little electronic devices. From June 30 to July 23, 2026, Mercury retrogrades in Cancer, a water sign deeply connected to family, the past, memories, home, and emotional security. In other words? It’s not just your phone that might start glitching… your emotions could act up too. A family conversation left unfinished, a memory that resurfaces out of nowhere, an old wound asking to be soothed, a sudden desire to rethink the way you live, love, or protect yourself: this retrograde feels like a return to your roots. And as always with Mercury retrograde, the goal isn’t to panic, but to slow down, reread, listen again, and repair what needs repairing.
