To get ready we recommend that you brew your tea and have a teacup ready before this class, so we can all have fun together!

Tea Leaf Reading General Guidelines:
• The best cup: with wide opening on the top, porcelain or ceramic, light in color, preferably white and with no pattern inside.
• Make a pot of black loose leaf tea.
• Pour directly into the cups.
• Drink your tea thinking about a specific topic or make a wish.
• When only about ½ tsp. of liquid left at the bottom, swirl it counterclockwise or turn your cup from left to right 3 times, then tum it upside down onto the saucer, with handle towards you.
• After about 3 min, tum it over.
• Leaves on the bottom - distant future
• Leaves near the rim - immediate future
• Teacup handle - present
• If there are no patterns, that means your thoughts are too scattered to read the leaves :( PATTERN - MEANING:
