Simple fortune telling for Christmas at home. Let's find out what awaits us in the future by wax

Fortune telling for Christmas and Christmastide is rightfully considered the most truthful. Christmas fortune telling has its roots in the times of pagan Rus'. It was fortune telling during the winter solstice (and this is the period of Christmastide) that was given special meaning in pagan times.

It was believed that it was on these days that otherworldly forces were most active, and the boundaries between worlds were thinner, which contributed to a more truthful result of New Year's, Christmas and Yuletide fortune-telling.

With the advent of Christianity in Rus', Christmas fortune-telling was not only preserved, but also acquired a more mystical meaning, and although the church tried to fight superstition and fortune-telling, they were carefully passed on from generation to generation, and have survived to this day in a little changed form.

Christmastide refers to the two weeks of winter holidays, from Christmas Eve, which falls on January 6, to Epiphany, celebrated on January 19.

When you decide to tell fortunes for Christmas, remember that the result of fortune telling may not live up to your expectations, so is it worth spoiling your holidays...

A huge variety of methods for Christmas fortune-telling have been invented in Rus', but the main theme of all Christmas fortune-telling is fortune telling for the betrothed (groom). This is understandable, because in ancient times, the fate of a girl depended entirely on how successfully she would get married.

Yuletide fortune telling or fortune telling for Christmas time

Fortune telling on Christmas Eve is called “Yuletide” for a reason. It is on Christmas Eve, January 6, that the so-called Christmastide begins, which lasts until the night of Epiphany, January 19. In ancient times in Rus', people believed that this was a magical period at the beginning of the year, when higher power willingly contact a person, and if you ask the spirits well, you can get a variety of answers and you can open the door of your future.

To predict your destiny and see what lies ahead, how life will turn out and what events may happen, it is important to know not only when to tell fortunes at Christmas, but what is needed for fortune telling. Traditional fortune telling in January with cards or on wax, on mirrors and logs, coffee grounds and many other available materials.

It has already been noted that fortune telling at Christmas time very often comes true and is accurate. Because these days angels and good spirits help.

When can you guess in 2019?

Best time for fortune telling, as we have already reported, this is the night before Christmas.

It is then that astral spirits and ghosts penetrate physical world, making contact and communicating the facts of our future.

One more suitable period Winter attempts to look into your future are considered to be the period between January 8 and January 18. IN given time they also guess, recognizing their betrothed (name, hair color, character, class), an imminent or distant wedding, the number of children, a successful or unsuccessful marriage.

Vasiliev's evening is recognized as special when the result turns out to be highly accurate, even prophetic. This is January 13th.
No less successful in fortune telling is January 18 - Epiphany Eve.

Preparing for fortune telling on Christmastide

In order to get reliable answers and not harm themselves, fortune tellers had to meet a number of certain conditions:

  • First of all, you had to take off your protection, that is, the cross. You understand that fortune telling is a “conversation with the devil,” and he, as you know, is afraid of the cross. It was also necessary to remove all the icons from the room in which the ceremony would be performed, or to cover them with a scarf.
  • Secondly, you had to take off rings, belts and any other “closed” or “encircling” things. It's better to let your hair down.
  • Thirdly, during the fortune telling itself, you should not cross your arms and legs. Even now, any esotericist will tell you that this blocks energy.
  • Fourthly, there should be no other lighting in the room except from candles.
  • Fifthly, before fortune telling (about a day in advance) you shouldn’t quarrel with anyone.

And lastly, it is imperative to maintain silence.

Well, these are, perhaps, the basic rules. In fact, in different time This list could change in different provinces, but these are subtleties.

Now, as for the place in which it is best to guess. It was believed that the place for this ritual should be “unclean.” The bathhouse fit this description perfectly; I have already briefly mentioned why the bathhouse is considered such a place; let’s not focus on this now. If for some reason there is no bathhouse nearby, then you can conduct the ceremony in the attic, basement, or in an abandoned house. And the very last option is at home (by the way, one of the least desirable).

By the way, in addition to all of the above, the girls wondered:

  • at road intersections;
  • in the courtyard of the house (there are several such fortune-telling);
  • and the worst option is in the cemetery (it is believed that this place is reminiscent of strong energy, besides, the line between the worlds is the thinnest).

Fortune telling by mirror

This ancient fortune telling at all times was considered the most true. However, it also carried dangers. Often impressionable young ladies lost their senses. And the whole point is that, according to ancient legends, a mirror is nothing more than the line between the real and the otherworldly.

There are many signs and customs associated with this belief. Previously, when mirrors were made using silver, it was believed that in addition to connecting with the world of spirits, they had a long memory, which could harm people. Therefore, almost all signs relating to the mirror are considered bad omens.

Everyone knows that broken mirror promises misfortune and trouble. In the old days, women were not allowed to look in the mirror during pregnancy and immediately after childbirth, because... it was believed that this could destroy the precarious line between the two worlds and harm the baby and mother. At the same time, the mirror also served a strong talisman: it was believed that evil spirits, reflected in the mirror, instantly and forever lost their power.

But let's get back to the fortune telling itself. They told fortunes with a mirror in an “unclean” place (for example, in a bathhouse, where they washed off all the dirt), at midnight on Christmas Eve, when the border between reality and other world most thinned. The girl who performed the divination had to be alone in the room.

She needed to take off her belt, let her hair down, and put two cutlery and a candle on the table. Having prepared everything necessary, the girl sat down facing the mirror and said: “Betrothed, mummer, come to me for dinner.”

At exactly midnight, in the mirror, she saw the face of a man leaning over her shoulder. At this moment, peering into the face of her future groom, she had to utter words that would drive away the image: “Cheer out of this place!” From that moment on, the danger subsided. It was believed that if this is not said, the betrothed might come out of the mirror, and then misfortune would occur.

Fortune telling by egg

Pour water into a glass and pour the protein into it raw egg. Place the glass in a heated oven so that the whites curl. After this, take out the glass and carefully look at the resulting figure.

Interpretation of figures:

  1. Church dome or ring - imminent wedding.
  2. Rectangle or square - serious illness, death.
  3. Ship - moving after marriage to another city or country.
  4. A pancake that has sunk to the bottom is a series of adversities and troubles, a long girlhood.


Take a clean sheet of paper and crumple it, then place it on the bottom of an upside down plate and set it on fire. When the paper burns out, bring the saucer with the ashes to the wall and carefully turn the plate until a shadow appears on the wall, the outlines of which will be the result of fortune telling. How to interpret a shadow? Using your imagination!

Christmas fortune telling by nut shell

Pour water into a basin. Attach strips of paper along the edges of the pelvis on which events are written, for example, a wedding, a trip, receiving money, new job etc. (if there is only one fortuneteller), or the names of all those present who want to know their future.

In the second case, one event is planned, in particular a wedding, engagement, meeting a future spouse, etc.
Take half a shell walnut and secure the stub of a church or birthday candle in it. Light the candle and push the “boat” to the middle of the pelvis. From there, the shell should float to one of the notes on its own.

But the dream will come true only if the paper, upon contact with the boat, lights up from the candle flame.


Fortune telling by ring

Take a bowl of clean water, throw it at her wedding ring and put it in the frost. In the morning, look how frozen the water is. If the surface of the water is smooth, the fortune-telling woman will not have children in the near future. If the surface is uneven, look at it very carefully, because the bumps are boys, and the depressions are girls. Accordingly, the number of tubercles and dimples you count, the number of children you will have.

When everyone is asleep, you need to take the gold chain, rub it between your palms, hold it in your right hand, shake it and throw it on the table.

  • A circle has formed - closed troubles are expected;
  • streak - luck;
  • node - difficulties and illnesses;
  • triangle - love success;
  • bow – wedding;
  • snake - betrayal;
  • heart is love.

Fortune telling with a knife

For this type of fortune telling, gypsies use a round wooden board about 30 centimeters in diameter for cutting bread. If you don’t have a board of this size at hand, you can take a tray or cut a circle out of cardboard. Along the edges
circle write answers to the most frequently asked questions:

"Yes",
"No",

"Be patient",
“Beware: there is an enemy next to you, hiding under the guise of a friend,”

"Good news"
"Love Letter"

"Luck in the undertaking"
"Unexpected Guest"

"Love",
"Today's tears will turn into joy tomorrow"

"Unexpected news"
"New love",

"Unexpected meeting",
"Journey",
"Important letter."

Place a regular one in the center of the circle kitchen knife and mentally formulate a question. Rotate the knife around its axis three times. One of the three messages that the tip of the knife will point to will be the answer to the question asked.

The other two may be the cause or effect of the predicted event. If, after rotation, the tip of the knife stops at an equal distance from the two messages, the fortune telling must be repeated.


Fortune telling YES-NO

Hold over a jar containing any cereal or grain. left hand palm down. While concentrating, you need to ask the question that interests you.

After this, take a handful of cereal from the jar and pour it onto the table, then count the number of grains. If the number of grains is even, this means a positive answer - YES, an odd number means a negative answer - NO.

Take a needle and white thread. Thread the thread through the eye. Take the thread by the end right hand, and point the tip of the needle to the center of the palm of your left hand at a short distance from it. Keep an eye on the needle. If it begins to sway across your palm, it means you are having a girl, if along it means you are having a boy.

After the needle stops, it may begin to swing again, which means it alerts you to the gender of the next baby. Wait until the needle stops making any movements at all, and until then, count the number of your children and do not forget to remember their gender.

Christmas fortune telling by barking dogs

At midnight, take a knife, go outside, go to a snowdrift and start cutting the snow with a knife, saying: “Damn, damn, don’t be silent, damn, damn, tell me what kind of husband I’ll get, will I have to laugh or cry?”

After pronouncing the words of the spell, shut up and listen carefully to the barking of the dogs. If an angry, abrupt bark is heard, it means future husband He will be strict and gloomy.

If the dogs bark cheerfully and loudly, then the husband will be cheerful and kind.

It is very bad if you hear a dog howling during fortune telling. This suggests that the marriage will not last long and very quickly the young wife will become a widow.


Fortune telling on the number and gender of future children

On Christmas evening, you need to pour water into a glass, put a ring in it and put it out in the cold. Before going to bed, a glass is taken out of the cold and future children are judged by the icy surface formed in it.

A smooth and even log is a good and handsome groom. A rough log is an ugly but hard-working husband. Thick and good bark – rich tapering. Stripped bark - poor groom.

Christmas time is special. It is believed that on Christmas night everyone can ask about what awaits them in the future, without harm to themselves.

Issues related to the family have always been considered the most significant, so the most popular at all times were fortune telling for a betrothed and fortune telling for a child at Christmas. Girls were always interested in how many children they would have and what gender. Children were their parents' hope for what would happen to them and who would look after them in old age. At all times, a family was considered incomplete if there were no children in it. Their absence was the most terrible thing for the young woman. There was a belief that this was a punishment from the Lord for the sins of our ancestors. For this reason, Christmas fortune telling for children has always been very popular.

For fortune telling to be successful, you must follow some rules. Among them:

  • The ritual must be performed in complete silence. Turn off the TV and other possible sources of noise. It is desirable that it is also quiet outside the window, so optimal time for fortune telling - closer to midnight.
  • In order not to block the energy flows emanating from the fortuneteller, which can negatively affect the vision of the future, you should not cross your legs and arms during the ritual.
  • For successful fortune telling, you need to prepare accordingly: wash, comb your hair, untie all kinds of belts and ties, remove jewelry - in general, eliminate everything that in one way or another can interfere with the free movement of energy flows.

Guessing the gender of the child at Christmas

Before ultrasound machines became widespread and it became possible to determine the sex of the unborn baby, pregnant women also wanted to know who their child would be. To do this, they resorted to fortune telling about the gender of the unborn child.
To perform this ritual, you need a thread and a needle. Take the thread threaded through the needle and pinch it between your index finger and thumb. It should be above your palm. Sooner or later the needle will start spinning. If it moves clockwise, this indicates that the next child will be a daughter. The movement of the needle, like a pendulum, indicates that you will have a son. If the needle does not move, you are no longer destined to have children.

Fortune telling for a child at Christmas using stones

Another interesting way to determine the number and gender of future children is fortune telling on stones.
Before you conduct it, you need to think carefully about which names you like best. For married women, it would be a good idea to ask their husband about this. After that, take the stones and write your favorite names on them using ink. You can also use paper for fortune telling on stones by gluing a strip with a name to the stone. You will have as many children as there are pieces of paper left unstuck, or inscriptions not erased. This is how the sex of the unborn child is determined. At the same time, if all the pieces of paper have come off, it is quite possible that a baby will be born, whom you will call by a name not written in stone. For this reason, try to provide for everything possible options, for example, the names of distant and close relatives, the most popular names, etc. Thanks to this, you can ensure maximum objectivity of the results obtained.

In the morning, take a glass of water into the house and see how the water has frozen: the presence of tubercles indicates boys, dimples indicate daughters. To find out the exact number of children, you need to count all the depressions and tubercles.


It must be said that today this ritual is also carried out with the help of freezer, if the weather on Christmas Day does not want to please with frost. Those who have carried out fortune-telling in a similar improved way claim that the predictions come true.
Most likely, this is due to the fact that the special atmosphere of Christmas is more important than the use of specific objects, because even our ancestors noticed that on this night the most ordinary things acquire magical properties and are able to tell people about the future, for example, telling fortunes for a child at Christmas.

Rituals using human hair are of extreme interest, because it is known what power, energy and information they possess. It is important that the ritual be carried out when you are completely ready to go to bed. After it is carried out, the girl must remain silent, no matter who speaks to her, especially since she is not allowed to get up and do any business until the morning.

How to tell fortunes for Christmas at home: basic rules

To protect yourself from evil entities, and to achieve truthful answers when fortune-telling, you must adhere to some conventions that are well known to real sorcerers and fortune-tellers:

  1. It is necessary to take the ritual seriously, otherwise it is useless to wait for a significant result, so even if fortune telling is performed by several people, the room should be quiet. It's best to guess when you're alone.
  2. You will have to try to have a positive attitude towards the ritual and enlist the help of the Light Forces - read the “Our Father” or any other prayer.
  3. Even with bad omens, don’t even think about getting upset, because we create the outline of life with our own with my own hands. Any forecasts are, first of all, warnings, but not a verdict.
  4. At the end of the divination, thank God for your assistance. After the ritual, it doesn’t hurt to thoroughly wash your hands and face.

In order for supernatural forces to help find out the truth about upcoming events, girls are supposed to rid their hair of hairpins, elastic bands and jewelry, letting it loose over their shoulders, so their own energy will help them receive information. At the same time, you cannot keep your legs and arms crossed, otherwise the channels of communication with the incomprehensible beings of the Universe will be blocked.

It is advisable to remove all jewelry from yourself, even rings and earrings, as well as icons, because what will happen, in essence, is an invocation by the spirit, and is an unclean thing, from the Orthodox point of view. In principle, the place where Christmas fortune-telling for the future was carried out has always been a bathhouse, but today not everyone has their own home, so the ceremony can be carried out in any room. The light in the room should be dim, so only candles should be left.

Simple and interesting fortune telling for Christmas for children

Below I suggest you watch a video that shows several types of interesting and simple ways of Christmas and Yuletide fortune-telling for children. After all, children, seeing that adults are guessing, will also want to look into their future.

One more thing important requirement- simple fortune-telling for Christmas at home should be carried out only when a person sincerely believes that the invisible mystical world of spiritual entities is connected with reality and can influence any events in human life. Otherwise, it is impossible to obtain the truth from otherworldly forces.

Christmastide are the two weeks of winter holidays, from Christmas Eve, which falls on January 6, to Epiphany, celebrated on January 19. Fortune telling at Christmas is rightfully considered the most truthful. The roots of Christmas go back to the times of pagan Rus'. It was fortune telling during the winter solstice (and this is the period of Christmastide) that was given special importance in pagan times. It was believed that it was on these days that otherworldly forces were most active, and the boundaries between worlds were thinner, which contributed to a more truthful result of New Year's, Christmas and Yuletide fortune-telling.

With the advent of Christianity in Rus', Christmas fortune-telling was not only preserved, but also acquired more meaning, and although the church tried to fight superstition and fortune-telling, they were carefully passed on from generation to generation, and have survived to this day in a little changed form.

There are three most popular birth divinations - with a needle, on stones and with a glass. Let's find out more about them.

Fortune telling for children with a needle has another name: with a pendulum. It allows you to find out the sex of the child, as well as total kids in your family. The word “general” is used specifically: the fact is that this fortune-telling always shows, starting with the first child, what should be taken into account by those parents whose family already has children. To carry out the procedure, a minimum of material is required: a needle and white thread (color is not important, but desirable). The next step is to turn your left hand so that your palm faces up and your thumb points to the side. The pendulum (needle) is lowered three times into the space formed by thumb and palm. The needle is then positioned directly above the arm, approximately in the center of the palm. The movements of the pendulum will predict the gender of the firstborn: circular - expect a girl, from side to side - expect a boy. If the needle remains motionless, then there will be no children. After performing the procedure a second time, you will find out the gender of the second child, the third – the third, etc. This version of fortune telling is considered the most reliable.

Another option for fortune telling for the birth of a child is fortune telling on stones. For it you will need several pieces of paper, the same number of stones, a pen/marker and a container of water. On paper you need to write a number of names that, for one reason or another, seem attractive to you. These notes are attached to stones that are lowered into the water. Now watch what is happening carefully. Stones float, pieces of paper come off, inscriptions blur and are washed away. The sex of the child, and also possibly his name, will be indicated by those leaves that survive as a result of this free floating.

Fortune telling for children with a glass, or by water, is also quite common and time-tested. The only limitation is that it can only be carried out at the time of year when night temperatures reach negative values. It is enough to take a small container into which you can pour water (previously a glass was traditionally used for this, today it can be a glass, a mug, or a small bowl). Before going to bed, the container is filled with water, a ring (preferably gold) is thrown into it and taken outside to the cold. Someone uses a freezer, but the reliability of fortune telling in this case is significantly reduced. Is the water frozen? Ask someone (it is important that it is not yourself) to bring the container. Carefully examine the surface of the water. The number of depressions formed will indicate the number of future daughters, and the bulges - sons.

Fortune telling for Christmas: rules and the most common types.

Slavic fortune-telling was traditionally carried out on Christmastide. On the night of January 6-7, any prediction, even one made by chance, is considered the most accurate. The Christmas spirits do not refuse to answer questions until January 19th. But after Baptism, the evil spirits hide away, and a mere mortal who does not have magical powers, getting a prediction becomes problematic.
