Mankind has a curiosity as old as mankind's history : to discover the future!
All of us are curious about our future , we desire to learn about the pleasures and griefs that are waiting for us in the near and far future. It is undeniable that among the methods of learning about your future , fortune-telling or having your fortune told is considered the most important. As we know , fortune-telling is done by consulting a crystal ball or examining playing-cards and by using many METHODS. The fact that makes the fortune-teller a fortune-teller is the capability of feeling something and transfering the same. Essentially the meaning of seeing something is seeing into the future and this has caused the definition of "fortune-telling". Despite the fact that the century in which we live has changed our living manner and our angle of looking at life , with its scientific and technical improvements , it could not destroy our desire to look into the future and fortune-telling. The desire to have one's fortune told lives inside everybody no matter whether they are old-fishioned or modern. The injunction "don't believe in fortune-telling but don't remain without fortune-telling" is the best proof of this undeniable desire.

How to read a Turkish Coffee Cup
You will of course need to prepare your coffee in such a way that there are grounds to read. Use grounded, powdery soft Turkish coffee.
· Enjoy your coffee while relaxing, and ask yourself: "will my exam results be positive??" or " What will be the important changes in my life in the near future?" etc...etc..whatever you wish to know.
· Now, meditate and point somewhere whatever pops into your mind.If the first thing has nothing to do with the coffee, jot it down anyway. For example, if cooking is the first thing that pops into your mind - whatever it may be, write it down; however, continue to stare at your cup.
· Try not to read what you are writing; rather keep your eyes on the grounds in your cup.
· Observe the thought, jot it down, and let it pass, moving onward to whatever comes next as you continue to stare at the cup.
· Continue writing for at least ten minutes-enough for you to enter the first stages of a meditative state, both by the exercise of looking at one thing and by the rhythmic pattern of your free association and the motion of your hand upon the paper.
· You don’t need to read every cluster of grounds or patterns in your cup. Interpret only what speaks to you.
· There is no right or wrong here. Each of your interpretations is "correct." You really do have all the answers within you. Trust yourself.
· Write the date down, and go back to your notes in few days, you will begin to notice happenings taking place and understand what each symbol or pattern mean according to your own dictionary.
· Symbols convey messages; focus on the message rather than the symbol. With practice, you will develop your own dictionary.
