How to interpret the shapes with tasseography?

At the bottom of your cup, you’ll be able to see a shape or figure. Each figure has a corresponding interpretation.

  • Circles: If they prevail over the other figures, you are set to make money. Conversely, if there are only a few of them, you will have financial difficulties.
  • Squares: If there are a lot of squares, you will suffer some inconveniences.
  • An elongated square, close to the rectangle, announces a marital dispute.
  • Ovals: If there are many of them, you will be successful in business.
  • Lines: If there are many of them, they are an omen of a happy old age. If they snake, you will have a difficulty.
  • Triangles: If only one appears, it symbolizes employment. If three appear one after the other, it is a sign of great happiness.
  • A diamond: This shape announces great happiness in love.
  • Birds: In the shape of a "V", a sign of happiness.
  • A snake: This symbolizes betrayal.
  • A spider: This announces financial success.

Now you know how to interpret the shapes at the bottom of your cup. Want to know what the future holds for you? Then read about how a Psychic reading could change your life!
