"Telling Fortunes By Tea Leaves: How to Read Your Fate in a Teacup" by Cicely Kent is a guide on the art of tea-leaf reading, likely written in the early 20th century. The book introduces readers to the practice of divination through the interpretation of tea leaves, discussing the historical and cultural significance of this method while outlining the techniques and symbols associated with it. At the start of the book, the author provides an overview of the increasing fascination with psychic phenomena and clairvoyance, emphasizing patience and a calm mindset as key to successful tea-leaf reading. It is suggested that the shapes formed by tea leaves in the cup are not random but are guided by the subconscious mind, creating a visual language that can reveal insights about the future. The opening sets the stage for deeper exploration into various techniques, the symbolic meanings of numerous shapes, and practical instructions for effective practice, encouraging both casual readers and serious practitioners to engage with this age-old form of divination.
