Did you guess for Christmas? Did it come true?
Divination or predictions are a special magical ritual that is used to obtain certain knowledge about the future. It has been used in various cultures since ancient times. Over time, the magical ritual turned into a special kind of secular entertainment, which remains popular with modern people.
In pagan times, the ritual of divination was considered a sacred act, but later, with the advent of Christianity, it passed into the category of unclean and superstitious actions. It is believed that during the ceremony, evil spirits are invoked, therefore, in all religions, fortune-telling is prohibited.
However, there are exceptions, these include Christmas, Vasilyevsky and Epiphany evenings. Fortune telling for Christmas 2019 is the most suitable time when you can predict the future by performing special rituals. On Christmas night, on the eve of the holiday, fortune-telling has a special independent character. They are one of the main pre-holiday rituals that allow you to find out about everything that awaits in the coming year.
Christmas Eve is considered the most dangerous border period, when the Christmas spirits have a special power. But it is at this time that evil spirits can reveal any secrets, which is why it is considered the most favorable. There are a lot of fortune-telling methods - with their help you can learn about almost everything: about the future harvest and personal life, about health and financial condition. Modern Christmas divination is a great way to have fun and have fun on the eve of the holiday.
When is the best time to guess?
Christmas divination is called Christmas. They are performed during Christmas time, which lasts 2 weeks, starting from Christmas Eve (from January 6), ending with Epiphany (January 19).
Christmas Eve is considered the most powerful day for predictions - on the night of January 6 to 7. And you can predict the future on maps, mirrors, candles, paper, water, books and much more.
What you need to know when conducting a divination ritual
The room where the action will take place should be quiet. Sounds, noise can break the thread of contact with the Universe;
During the ritual, you can not cross your arms and legs, since then the information will not come in full;
During the ceremony, remove all rings, belts and other items that are tied to you. Also, hair should be loosened;
No lighting other than candles should be used indoors;
Do not forget to take off your pectoral crosses and remove all icons from the room;
Choose a place to perform actions "unclean". Previously, the bath was considered the most successful place.
Please note that if you do not believe in mysticism, then all predictions will be false.
Divination for the future life
Various objects are placed in a deep opaque container, for example, a piece of ash, sugar, a ring, an onion, etc. It is necessary to pull out the object in turn, whoever pulls out what will be in the future. Ash - a bad life, sugar - a sweet life, a ring - marriage, an onion - to tears, a glass - a fun life, a golden ring - a rich life, etc.
Fortune telling by shadow
A very simple and popular way. You need to take a sheet of paper and crumple it well. Then put on a saucer and set on fire. When the sheet is almost burned, use a candle to display it on the wall. Consider the resulting shadow and try to find out your future in it.
Divination for the life of relatives
It is necessary in the evening, during dinner, to walk down the street and look into the windows of the neighbors. If you see heads sitting at the table, then this means that the relatives will all be alive. If you don’t see the heads, then misfortunes can happen to relatives.
Divination for the future by wax
Melt the wax in a mug, pour milk in a saucer and place it at the threshold of an apartment or house. Then say the following words: "Brownie, my master, come under the threshold to drink milk, eat wax." And with the last words, pour the melted wax into the milk. Next, carefully observe what is happening. If the wax hardens in the shape of a cross, then some kind of illness awaits you in the new year. If the cross only appears, then in the coming year your financial affairs will not go too well, and in your personal life troubles will overcome, but not too serious. If a flower blooms, get married, get married or find a loved one. If you see an animal, be careful: you will have some kind of enemy. If the wax flows in strips, you will have roads, crossings, and lay down with stars - expect good luck in the service, in your studies. If a human figure is formed, you will gain a friend.
Fortune telling for the next year by eavesdropping
You need to stand under the neighbors' windows or under their doors and eavesdrop on their conversations. If they sort things out and beat the dishes, then you will have a very “fun year”, and if you hear silence, then your year will be calm and harmonious.
Divination for the future with an egg
So, take a fresh egg. Make a small hole in it. Carefully pour the contents into a glass of warm water. When the protein curls up, look at the resulting shape. Depending on the form, guess your future. The type of church means a wedding, the ring means betrothal, the cube means a coffin, the ship means a business trip (for a man) or the return of a husband from a business trip (for a woman). But if your protein sinks to the bottom, then there will be a fire in the house.
Divination by the book
Everything is simple here. Take a book, the best spiritual content. Without opening it, mentally ask yourself the question you want answered. Next, guess the page number and the line above or below. Then open it and read in a hidden place. What you read is your answer to the question.
Divination for the future by coffee grounds
Make yourself some coffee and drink it. Next, cover the cup with the saucer and tip it up and down three times. Your thick should spread along the bottom, while various figures will appear. Guess from them. See the contour of the dog - to friendship, the contour of the forest - to wealth, the cross - patience, and the wreath - glory. If you see a staircase, then you will reach your desired goal, the shadow of a person is a pleasant date, and the shadow of a house means abundance. The contours of a church or a bell mean a return home, but a deer will indicate a fast road.
There are rituals in occult science that are quite dangerous for a person if he is not prepared for this experience. Working with the looking glass requires strong and strong knowledge and a prepared psyche. And most importantly, you should know by heart special powerful amulets so that an accidental mistake does not become fatal for you. Even harmless divination on mirrors carries a hidden threat, which is why it is permissible to do this only around Christmas. And then, from the legends, it is known that there were cases when, when divining in mirrors, a girl died. It is possible that the mirror during witchcraft or divination gave vent to unknown forces, and everything did not happen as it should have.
On Christmas Day, January 6, you can guess whether you will live with your sweetheart until the day you die. For this divination, two new, “non-sewn” needles are needed. Rub them with interior lamb fat and, dropping them into a glass of water, say:
The fate of these needles is not to sew,
And serve me faithfully.
Show me, needles, to me,
Young servant of God (name),
Will I live with the servant of God (name),
Will he love me?
Having said this, stir up the water in the glass and see: if the needles lie apart, then fate will separate you from your sweetheart; if they are nearby, then you will live your whole life together.
Divination on birch buds
Guessing at Christmas should be on an empty stomach and alone. Go to the birch, make a wish and break the branch. Before you break her, say:
Bless the Trinity
Holy Mother of God.
Branch, break off,
And to the servant of God (name), fate will appear.
Amen.
Count all the buds on the branch. If their number is even, then your wish will come true.
Fortune telling on salt
It is impossible to believe that a few centuries ago, ordinary salt, which now costs a mere trifle, was not available to everyone and cost fabulous money. Salt has always been a good conductor. Probably, for this, they began to use it for divination.
On the bright holiday of Christmas, salt crystals will tell you the whole truth that awaits you next year.
Here are some examples of Christmas salt divination.
This divination on salt was used to see the future groom in a dream. Before going to bed, the girl ate a few salt crystals and drank water. You could just eat very salty food in the evening. Going to bed for divination on the night before Christmas, the maiden uttered the following words:
"Narrowed, mummers, come drink some water."
The result of such divination on salt was supposed to be a dream about a future husband.
Salt divination option 2.
At Christmas or during Christmas time, try this divination with salt. Take a glass of water, pour some ash and salt into it. Before going to bed, over a glass of water, say the following words for divination
“Drink water, salt with salt, burn ashes, and I can spy on the groom.”
Then put a glass of salt and ashes on the windowsill and go to bed.
Divination option on salt 3.
This divination is used when you need to get an answer to the question "Yes" or "No". Take the fabric and lay it out on the table. Take a handful of salt. Whisper your question to the salt, close your eyes, and sprinkle the salt on the cloth. Carefully study the symbols that have turned out. They will be the answer to your question. Drawings that resemble animals, plants, the sun, flowers - say yes to the answer. If the salt drawings are more reminiscent of objects, clear geometric shapes, then the answer is “No”. To interpret this divination, you can use the meanings that are used in divination on coffee grounds.
Divination with a towel
Previously, girls in Rus' knew a lot of Christmas divination with a towel.
This is probably the most famous divination at Christmas with a towel. Take a towel and hang it outside your window on New Year's Eve or the night before Christmas. Before divination, say:
My betrothed, mummers, come to me to wash yourself, dry yourself with my towel!
go to bed, and in the morning look what happened to the towel. If the towel becomes wet or damp, then Christmas fortune-telling promises you a wedding next year. A dry towel tells you another year of single, unmarried life.
And here is another version of Christmas divination with a towel. On the eve of Christmas, unmarried girls invited the betrothed not only to eat, comb their hair, but also wash themselves.
For this Christmas divination, you will need a new towel. Place a towel under your pillow with the words:
“Narrowed, dressed up, come wash yourself, dry yourself with a towel.”
In the morning, the girls remembered whether they saw their future lover or not.
By church candles
Anyone who has ever used this divination is convinced that it is always true. Buy in advance in the church during the service seven candles of different colors. From the church you need to go home without going anywhere. Before lighting the candles, put on a buttonless shirt and let your hair down. Hang a mirror and curtain the windows. When you light the candles, read the plot for true fortune-telling three times, and then extinguish them with your breath. Put the candles under your pillow, and in the morning, without looking, take out three candles. In the evening, sign which of the candles (by color) will mean what you called her.
Designation of candles:
1 - death
2 - fame and money
3 - married life
5 - happiness and luck
6 - anxiety
7 - long life
I remind you: you must mark in advance somewhere on a piece of paper what color the candle will predict.
Conspiracy for true divination
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
The stars were born in the sky.
Magi to the Mother of God showed up.
How true truth was in their mouths,
In their prophetic deeds
And how they predicted the birth of Jesus,
They called him the Savior of the world,
So that my fortune-telling was true
And surprisingly fair.
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Now and forever and forever and ever.
Amen.
Divination on spoons and kutya
Before Christmas and Epiphany, immediately after the supper, put kutya and honey in a large cup. Then have each member of the family place a spoon (notch down) in this cup. Put the cake on top of the bowl and cover it all with a tablecloth. In the morning, after coming from the church, look: if someone's spoon turned over, then this person will die soon.
Divination on cones
Fortune telling on cones 1.
For fortune telling, you need any cone. Take 7 pieces of paper and write down the events that you are looking forward to in the next new year. Then collect the leaves, mix and arrange in a row in front of you. Now, for fortune telling, take a cone and push it to the leaves. Near which leaf the cone stops, then the event will happen next year.

Another version of this divination. Instead of words, you can write male names and tell fortunes in the name of a loved one by tossing cones.
Fortune telling on the betrothed with a comb
Hair has always been considered something mystical. It is no coincidence that many rituals require carrying out with loose hair. This is probably why a lot of Christmas divination for the future with a comb arose. Basically, fortune-telling with a comb was done when they wanted to know more about the betrothed.

- 1 hair - a meeting with the betrothed should take place in the next month. Take a close look at those around you.
- 2 hair - soon you will receive news about your betrothed.

- 4 hair - within a year you will get into big trouble. Unfortunately, this result does not provide an answer about the contraction.
- 5 hairs and more - alas! There is no answer from higher powers regarding your betrothed yet.
Fortune telling on the betrothed before going to bed
In the New Year and Christmas, it is customary to tell fortunes before going to bed for the betrothed. What kind of items are not used for this! I will talk about the most famous divination for the betrothed before bedtime.

Take a cup of water, throw in a pinch of ash, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of sugar. Throw your hair and the hair of the person you love there. Look in the morning: if your hair is intertwined with each other, then you will live together happily ever after; if his hair is drowned, then an early death awaits him; if the hair is far apart, then he will soon leave you.

Before going to bed, read the following plot three times:
Monday with Tuesday

Gently stir the water in the glass with a knitting needle or needle. And now look! In the middle of the funnel, you will see pictures of your future.
Fortune telling on seeds
On the third day of Christmas, the girls continue to guess. And you can follow this ancient custom. Put a handful of seeds on the table, and then start discarding them in pairs. If at the end the number of seeds turns out to be even, then you will definitely get married in the coming year; if there is one seed left, then you will be lonely all year.
From a photo of a loved one
On the third day after Christmas, January 9, you can find out what awaits a person who is not indifferent to you. To do this, you will need his portrait or photograph. Hold the photo in your right hand and, looking directly into the eyes of the image, say:
Your image is before me
My guardian angel is behind me.
Let my angel tell me
The one in the window will show
Where does this servant of God dwell?
What awaits him?
After these words, look out the window. If you see through the window:

Cards are often used during the January holidays for divination for love relationships. All they need is a new deck of playing cards, and even a person ignorant of magic can make a deal. The result is often quite accurate and reliable.
four jacks
If a girl cannot make a choice among several applicants for her hand and heart, then she should tell fortunes on four jacks. You will need an unplayed deck, with which it is easy to find out the intentions of each of the men, as well as to make a forecast of further relationships. It should be noted that the results of this divination are stored for exactly one year. In the following Christmas holidays, the alignment will have to be repeated. It is necessary to adhere to this principle:<
- Select four jacks.
- Name each by the name of one of the familiar men.
- Mix them up and arrange them face down in a row.
- Shuffle the remaining 32 cards.
- Divide them into four equal piles.
- Under each of the jacks, lay out these packs from left to right. The content of each of them will tell about the prospects for further relations with the hidden young people.
- Next, you should evaluate the current situation according to the dominant suit (for example, evaluate all cards of the same suit under the jack of hearts). This is the main characteristic that shows what kind of relationship a girl can have with a particular young man. And only after that you can interpret the rest of the cards. At the same time, worms show sincere feelings, tambourines - material wealth, peaks report joint children, and clubs predict frequent quarrels and experiences.
- A man who did not fit the fortuneteller according to a number of indicators, along with a stack of cards corresponding to him, should be removed from the layout.
- The three remaining jacks, together with the cards related to them, are mixed and laid out again on the table, following the algorithm of actions described above.
- Then again remove one of the unsuitable suitors from the alignment.
- Repeat the whole process with the remaining candidates until only one remains.
- The cards from his pack should be interpreted in order to find out whether the union with this person will be successful and promising. Each card is interpreted separately, and not in combination with others:
One card per
This fortune-telling will allow you to fairly accurately assess the prospects for a joint future with your loved one. For the layout, new playing cards will be required. They must be thoroughly mixed, and then remove part of the deck with the little finger of the left hand and put it down.
The next card after the shift will tell about the feelings of the chosen one and about the future next to him. The meaning in this ritual is not only the suit, but the card itself:
- worms - love;
- cross - problems;
- tambourines - happiness;
- peaks - difficulties;
- six - lead;
- seven - good events;
- eight - disappointment in a partner;
- nine - a passionate kiss;
- ten - happy relationships;
- jack - real feelings;
- lady - rival or lover;
- the king is a friend who will help in love affairs;
- ace - a strong and long-term marriage, mutual understanding and consent in a couple.
With ring and paper
This is an easy divination method using a ring. In addition, you will need a candle, a coin and a woolen red thread. Necessary:
- take one candle and light it;
- tie a thread to the ring;
- place a coin near the candle;
- hold the ring on a thread above the coin, while trying not to move your hand;
- formulate a question of interest about the chosen one and further relationships.
The fixed ring warns of the untimeliness of the question asked. When it sways in different directions, the answer is yes. Swinging like a pendulum means "no", moving in a circle indicates the need to ask a question in a different way. In the latter case, it is undesirable to repeat the ritual again on the same day, it is necessary to wait a while and perform it again.
To conduct this Christmas rite you need:
- Take a few small pieces of paper.
- Write on them the names of young people you know.
- Arrange them randomly on the table.
- Thread a thick woolen thread into the golden ring.
- Lead decoration over pieces of paper with names. The name on which it begins to swing strongly belongs to a man who has true love for a fortuneteller.
For the next Christmas divination you will need: paper, compasses, pen or pencil, ruler. Necessary:
- draw a circle on the sheet with a compass;
- divide it into separate sectors using a ruler, each of which will correspond to the letters in the name of the chosen one;
- enter each letter in its segment;
- add your own name to the circle, but if it contains more letters than sectors in the circle, then you do not need to write it down in full;
- compare all paired vowels and consonants;
- get prediction.
If there is no such combination, then the relationship has no future. If there are two such segments, love will end quickly, three means mutual understanding in a couple. A larger number portends strong love and a happy marriage.
Another fortune-telling with paper - by the hour. It will help to find out if the girl will meet true love in the new year. It is necessary to draw a clock on a sheet, make an arrow using improvised materials, for example, from a pencil. Twist, without looking, the arrow, then see what number its tip points to. If the arrow stops between two numbers or exactly in the middle, you need to choose the one that is larger.
with egg
To perform the ritual, you will need a bowl of water and a raw egg. Necessary:
- separate the protein from the yolk;
- pour it into the water;
- put the container in the oven or oven;
- wait until the protein coagulates;
- get a prediction on the formed figure.
A ring or dome promises a wedding, love, harmonious relationships with a partner. A geometric figure, for example, a triangle, speaks of parting, failures. A ship or boat portends a marriage with a foreigner or a person from another region, as well as a possible move after marriage. A squirrel that has sunk to the bottom indicates loneliness in the near future.
Rituals for love
Christmas Eve is filled with mysterious mystical power. The rites performed on this night work much faster and more efficiently and act intensively over a long period of time. Rituals that help to find love and maintain mutual understanding, happiness and peace in the family have special power.

You need to read it in front of the icon of All Saints, which is also an excellent amulet for the house: “I will become a joy, I will become a reward, I will become ringing gold, I will become a clear sun for everyone who appreciates me, loves, will not change.”
On the eve of the Nativity of Christ, on January 5, you need to throw out your old slippers and, without wasting a minute of time, go to the store for new ones. You need to choose new ones in a good mood, imagine yourself together with your future husband, think about his appearance, character, profession, etc. Buy two pairs - for yourself and your future spouse, who will definitely appear soon after this ritual. After paying for slippers, you need to get them out of the package and put them in your bag so that they are nearby. At home, you should immediately try on your pair, and put the men in your bedroom with your heels to the door, and your socks to the bed and say the magic words: “I'm waiting for you, my beloved! Come quickly to my house! »

How to tell fortunes for a betrothed on Christmas?
The methods of Christmas divination are very diverse. They help to find out the necessary information about the future husband: name, age, external data, financial situation, character, profession, etc.
Most of the rituals are simple and safe. But there are those that are not recommended for nervous girls, since they can cause irreparable harm to the fortuneteller in case of incorrect actions.
With ring
This rite will allow you to consider the image of the narrowed one in the water. To conduct it, you need to take a glass uncut glass two-thirds filled with water and a pre-cleaned ring. You can borrow an engagement ring from someone close to you. You should put it in water, pour a little sugar there, shake it slightly.
As soon as the water calms down, carefully look into the middle of the ringlet. The silhouette of the future spouse should appear soon. In addition, you should pay attention to how much sugar was in the center of the ring. If more than half, then life with a spouse will be rich and happy. If less, then the marriage will not be strong. If equally, then the union will bring both joyful moments and sorrows.
Another fortune-telling by five rings, which will tell you the financial situation of the future husband. It is necessary to get five rings - gold, silver, copper, with stone and plastic. Throw them in a bowl with millet or buckwheat, mix and without looking get any of them to get a prediction:
- golden ring - a wealthy and generous person;
- silver - middle-class, but with a position in society;
- plastic - poor, but hardworking;
- copper - poor and lazy;
- ring with a stone - rich and stingy.
The next ritual should be performed by three unmarried girls. For him you need:
- put a hook woven from wire, a piece of bread and a ring on the floor;
- cover all items with a scarf;
- hold hands;
- close eyes;
- dance around a scarf;
- turn around five times;
- remove the scarf;
- each pull out, without looking, any little thing.
Whoever gets the ring will soon marry for love. Bread promises a girl a marriage with a wealthy and generous man. But the hook is a bad symbol, the future groom will work all his life, but this will not bring him wealth.
On the maps
This is a very simple version of divination for four kings. Under the pillow, before going to bed, put kings of all stripes from a card playing deck and say: “Betrothed, mummers, come to me in a dream.” The king of spades means that the future husband is much older, the clubs - a widower or a military man, the hearts portends a wealthy and handsome chosen one, and the tambourine - a loved one.
You can also try this way:
- take four kings out of the deck;
- hide under the bed
- lightly press them with shoes;
- utter a conspiracy: “Narrowed-mummer, I am waiting for you dressed up. Come, show yourself, look at me."
Fortune telling with kings and jacks should be carried out in this way:
- take out all the kings and jacks from the new deck;
- shuffle them;
- lay out all eight cards face down under the pillow;
- say a conspiracy: “My fiance, dream to me in a dream and tell about yourself”;
- Go to bed;
- in the morning, take out one of the cards and judge the future husband by it.
The king means the husband, older in age, the jack - young or the same age. The suit can also help in the interpretation: worms - narrowed from the immediate environment, spades - a wealthy person, clubs promise an unexpected meeting with the groom, and tambourines - acquaintance will happen through close people.
With papers
This method is considered easy and safe. With it, you can find out the name of the future groom. Need to:
- cut a sheet of paper into small notes;
- write any male names on them;
- fold each in half;
- put under the pillow for the whole night;
- in the morning, take out the first one that comes across;
- find out the name of the betrothed.
To meet the fiance

- put one item at the bottom of each - a ribbon, a ring, an onion, a pepper and a candy;
- then stir the cups;
- close your eyes and take any at random;
- see what is in it.
The ribbon means meeting with the betrothed on the way somewhere or while traveling. The ring promises a quick wedding. The bow portends sadness, since the meeting will not take place soon. Pepper speaks of the complex nature of the betrothed, but he goes to the fortune-teller. Candy - the meeting will take place at a holiday or some fun event.
With a mirror and candles
This fortune-telling is one of the most exciting and dangerous. There are many variants of such a ritual, but the most mysterious is the ceremony with two mirrors. The best time for him is 12 o'clock at night, and you need to perform the ritual all alone. Necessary:

On bulbs
When a girl has many contenders for her hand and heart, she can perform a ritual on the bulbs, which will tell the name of the one who is destined for her by fate. On Christmas Eve, you should take several bulbs and write the name of one of the men on each. Bulbs should be even and without flaws.
Then you need to place them in a container with water or earth and wait until they germinate. The first onion with sprouted green sprouts will tell you the name of the person for whom the fortuneteller should marry.
Before bedtime
To look at the betrothed in a dream, you should sleep all alone, while you need to put on a shirt inside out, and turn the sheet and pillow face down. You need to go to bed on the day of divination in the direction opposite to the usual. There are many affordable and safe ways to see a prophetic dream:
- Place a mirror or comb under the pillow and say: “Come, come. Brush it, brush it. Look at me, show yourself."
- Braid the braid, thread a small padlock into it, lock it with a key and read the plot: “Narrowed-mummer, come to me to ask for the key, unlock the lock.” Hide the key. In a dream, the groom will ask him to give.

- From the festive feast, leave a piece of bread, put it under the pillow and say: "Betrothed-mummer, come to me for dinner."
street divination
Not all Christmas divination can be done at home. There are also those for which you have to go outside:
- On Christmas Eve, a girl should leave the house and throw her boot over the fence. Then look in which direction he points, and her future husband lives there. If the toe of the boot is directed towards the house, this year she will not be married.
- Throw a handful of snow in any direction and say: “Zalay, zaly, doggy, inquire, inquire, betrothed.” Then wait on the other side of the barking dog. If he is rude, then the fortuneteller will marry an old man, sonorous and boisterous - for a cheerful and young, muffled - for a widower or divorced.
- Fall into the snow late at night, get up and leave without looking back. In the morning to see what happened to the snow print. If the snow is smooth, then the spouse will be kind, dotted with dashes speaks of a jealous person. If the trail is completely covered, it will take a long time to get married. Too deep speaks of several marriages.
- Go out at midnight to the crossroads and listen to the sounds. If a bell ringing is heard, the fortuneteller will marry very soon, and the union will be long and happy. A loud male voice will tell you about the marriage proposal. A quarrel and swearing will tell you that you won’t be able to get married next year.
- At midnight, go out into the street and ask the name of the first passerby. That is what will belong to the future husband.
with a log
This method is suitable for those unmarried girls who live in the village. To tell fortunes in this way, it is necessary in the evening, when it becomes completely dark on the street, to go into an unlit woodpile and randomly select the first log that comes across. By its quality and form, one can judge who is to be married:
- a smooth log - a kind and handsome groom;
- rough - ugly;
- with a thick and good bark - rich;
- tattered in places - a beggar;
- thick log - physically strong;
- with knots - predicts a fortuneteller a large family, and their number will tell how many people will be in it;
- crooked - the groom will be older.
If a girl lives in a city, then finding a log is very problematic, but it can be replaced by any tree in the yard, park or forest. The fortuneteller needs to be blindfolded, unwind on the spot and, without looking, choose any tree at random. All the characteristics that are used in divination with a log are also applicable to the ritual with a tree.
