If you uttered to somebody nowadays that you believe your destiny can be viewed from the left-overs of your coffee mug or tea cup they would probably say!'you can what?' But don't worry; they would definitely think you are crazy. The crazier part is that people have actually accepted 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 passing out medications to take care of delusions and stupidity at its finest. Tea leaf readings have origins leading back to primarily China and other parts of Asia. In ancient times it isn't all that hard to believe that sane people could be sucked into this practice because there wasn't a window such as the internet or television to help you see how crazy and unlikely to be real a practice like this is, I mean after all, people still thought the world was flat. So who was to say that the left over tasteless crap at the bottom of your cup wasn't a window to the universe? At the very most a tea leaf reading gathering should be done only by people that are less than gullible and see it as something of a hobby or social gathering, not somebody who uses it to 'see 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 contain yourself 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 environment to relax in and serve some hot tea. Take a few breaths to take in the pleasant aroma and slowly sip the tea while engaging in peaceful conversation. For giggles, you can leave a little tea in your cup to mix around and see where the tea leaves settle. With very little light-hearted research you can find out the tea leaf meanings of the settled leaves and reveal what 'fate has in store for you'.
