Many are interested in what the future holds for us. To find out the unknown, people often resorted to fortune telling. Our ancestors often used to guess during Christmas time - until January 19. And on the morning of 19, on Epiphany, they washed themselves, doused themselves with holy water or bathed in an ice-hole to wash away this sin.

If you want to know your fate, in the period until January 19, you still have a chance to resort to such fortune-telling:

Divination by the groom

An unmarried girl needs to take the number of apples corresponding to the number of her boyfriends. They need to be designated by carving the initials of one boyfriend on each side on both sides. Then all the apples need to be put in some kind of dish and the light should be turned off. Mix the apples thoroughly, and then start nibbling off each one, choosing the most delicious. Look who is on the one that tasted the most - that guy has the most serious intentions.

There is also one old way to know, who will the future husband be- fortune-telling with a rooster. The girls took several plates, poured water into one, poured grain into the other, put a mirror in the third, and put a chicken figurine in the fourth. They let the rooster go and he pointed out to the fortune-telling girl who her betrothed would be: a drunkard, rich, handsome, or a womanizer.

Fortune telling on a prophetic dream

Before going to bed, you need to say “Saint Samson, show your holiday dream ...” and think about what you want to know. For example, what the future husband will look like when you get married or what awaits you this year. After that, you cannot talk to anyone.

Fortune telling

To find out how successful the next year will be in material terms, we did the following. You need to take three plates and one coin and ask someone to hide the coin under one of the plates, it is better to leave the room yourself at this moment. Then you should choose a plate at random. If there is a coin under it, the year will be successful and a profit awaits you, if you guess where the coin is from the second time, there will be no monetary losses, but if not, then you should save your funds this year and refrain from spending big.

Divination on the rings

Several girls gather in one room. Each one brings with it a ring, they must all be different: copper, silver, gold and with a stone, you can borrow from someone especially for this occasion. There can be two more rings than the number of girls.

The rings are placed in a container with grain or cereals and mixed thoroughly. Then, in turn, each of the girls takes a handful of grain. If she came across a ring, it was the basis for judging the future. A copper ring - the husband will be from a poor family, a silver ring - from a middle-class family, with a stone - the husband will be a man from the upper class, gold - the husband will be a rich and famous man. If the girl came across a ring that she brought or that she liked, this good sign- implementation of the plan. And if the ring did not come across, then this year you should not expect changes.

Divination for marriage

This fortune-telling allows you to find out what this year promises you. They took three things: a hat or other headdress, a piece of bread and a small board. All this was put into one large container and thoroughly mixed. Then they closed it, blindfolded it, made three turns and then pulled out whatever the first came to hand. If this is a headdress - marriage this year, bread - you will be wearing girls for another year, a tree - some unpleasant event in your family or your relatives will happen - illness or death.

Fortune telling

A basin is taken, water is poured into it and placed on the table. Events (engagement, travel, wedding, addition to the family, etc.) are written on paper strips of the same size and laid out around the pelvis at the same distance.

A small candle is placed in half of the walnut shell and lit, lowering it in the middle of the basin. Next, you need to wait until the shell approaches some edge and read the event near which it will be - then it will come true.

It is necessary to take as many cups as there are fortunetellers. Put a ring, a coin, bread, sugar, onion, salt into cups, pour a little water into one cup. Then the cups are quickly swapped, after which the girls, blindfolded, take turns choosing their fate. Whoever gets the ring in the cup will be the first to marry. Bread means a prosperous life with a rich man, sugar means a sweet romance, but no more, onions mean an affair with a neurotic. Salt - to rupture. But water symbolizes constancy - there will be no changes in the life of a fortuneteller.

Divination by the betrothed

This is one of the simplest and most accessible fortune-telling. It is necessary to write on small pieces of paper male names and put under the pillow overnight. In the morning, pull out the first leaf that comes across. What name will be, so will the name of the betrothed.

On Epiphany evening, the girls wondered about their future husband by wedges or fence slats. On modern way you can guess by the cars parked in the yard. Passing by, the girl counted the bars, saying: “Rich, poor, widower, bachelor”. According to the last bar, on which the counting room stopped, they judged which husband would get caught.

Fortune telling about the fate of the shadows

According to popular beliefs, the eve of Epiphany is the evening of January 18, the famous "Epiphany evening" - the time of revelry of evil spirits. She strives to enter the house with a werewolf - in any guise. To protect the dwelling from the penetration of evil spirits into the house, they put signs of the cross with chalk on all doors and window frames, which is considered a reliable protection from everything demonic. Do not put a cross on the door on Epiphany Christmas Eve - there will be trouble, they believed in the old days.

If you do not protect your home in time and "let in" evil spirits, you can get rid of its leprosy as follows. A knot is found in the floor of the house, which does not necessarily have to protrude above the floor, but can simply be indicated in parquet board... With the ring finger of the right hand, they circle the mote with a triangle, then step on it with their left foot and say: “Christ is risen, not you, devil. Amen".

The werewolf "Fire Serpent", which appears to girls in the form of a beautiful youth, is especially dangerous on Epiphany night. They say that if the "Fire Serpent" falls in love with a girl, this love is incurable forever. “Without loving, you will fall in love, without praise, you will praise,” the old ladies warn young girls about the appearance of a handsome man. “He, the villain, knows how to spoil the soul, he knows how to speak speeches, he will play, ruthless, with a girl's heart, he will overwhelm the girl in warm embraces. From his kisses, the girl burns with a rosy dawn. Without him, the girl sits in anguish, without him she dries herself. " You can protect yourself from visiting a handsome werewolf by drawing a cross on the door or pouring snow collected on Epiphany evening onto the stove.

But in the absence of stove bends in modern apartments, you can wash yourself with snow water in the morning on the day of Epiphany: according to omen, from this "they are white without white, ruddy without blush." You can not limit yourself to washing, but try to swim in the ice hole. It has long been a custom in Russia to swim in an ice-hole for Epiphany, despite the fact that Epiphany frosts were considered the most severe.

Those who divined on New Year's Eve, on Christmastide and on Epiphany, bathed or doused themselves with water: thereby they washed away sin, because fortune-telling was always considered a conspiracy with evil spirits.

In Russia, many beliefs about the fate of a person are associated with the holiday of Epiphany. If someone is baptized on this day - to be him the happiest person for life. It is also considered a good omen if on this day they agree on a future wedding. "Epiphany arm-wrestling - to a happy family" - said the people.

Those girls who had not yet waited for their fiancé went out in the evening for Epiphany and called out to their betrothed. If a girl comes across a young guy - a good omen, if an old man - an unkind omen.

There was a custom that both boys and girls followed with pleasure: asking the name of passers-by - male for women, female for men. By popular acceptance, this will be the name of the future groom and, accordingly, the bride.

On a clear moonlit Epiphany evening, the girls walked to the doors of the locked church and listened to the silence: some of them fancied either a wedding choir or a funeral service - what was promised to them New Year... The sound of a bell (marriage) and a dull knock (early death) had the same symbolism.

There was a custom, described by V.A.Zhukovsky, - throwing a shoe. The girls went out of the outskirts and threw a slipper in front of them with their left foot. We looked in which direction the toe of the shoe points - from there the groom will come and in that direction the girl will leave her home. If the toe of the shoe pointed back to the village, it meant that the girl would not get married this year.

Ancient fortune-telling for Baptism

From time immemorial, people want to know their fate. According to popular belief, the evening of January 18 is a time of rampant evil spirits. This is the last day Christmas divination and they were considered the most truthful. And after Epiphany, “torturing fate” was forbidden.

Fortune-telling has always been considered a conspiracy with evil spirits and a lot of beliefs are associated with it. Fortunetellers had to take off their underwear crosses and belts, untie knots on their clothes, and loosen their braids. And then pour water or bathe in order to wash away this sin.

For the older generation, fortune-telling is rather a festive fun game that allows you to get a little distraction from everyday worries. Therefore, in general, fortune-telling was considered the prerogative of young people - boys and girls. They were always interested in looking into the future, to find out something about their betrothed or betrothed. The old books describe many ways. Here is some of them:

Fortune-telling in the name of the betrothed.

You can still, how old will you marry. You need to pour two-thirds of water into a glass, hang a wedding ring on a string. And taking the end of the thread, lower the ring into the water, to the bottom. Then gently lift the ring above the water and follow its movement. It will begin to swing (the hand should be motionless). How many times the ring hits the walls of the glass - in so many years you will get married. For owners of long hair, you can use your own hair instead of a thread. When the ring begins to swing like a pendulum or circle, many feel the presence of something supernatural.

Fortune telling about the fate of the shadows

This type of fortune telling, due to its simplicity, is very common in the modern girlish environment. The girl sets fire to a sheet of paper she has crumpled, and then examines the shadow of the burnt paper. Everyone takes a blank sheet of paper, crumples it, places it on a platter or large flat plate, and sets it on fire. When the sheet burns out or almost burns out, with the help of a candle, it is displayed on the wall. Carefully examining the shadows, they try to find out the future.

Fortune telling on wax

You can find out about what awaits you in the future in several ways. For example, one of them. Melt the wax in a mug, pour the milk into a saucer and place it on the doorstep of your apartment or house. Say: "Brownie, my master, come under the threshold to drink milk, eat wax." WITH last words pour the melted wax into the milk. Now watch carefully. If you see a frozen cross, some diseases await you in the new year. If wax "blooms" with a flower, then marriage awaits you or will appear in your life new friend... If the beast appears, you will have transfers, flights and long-distance roads. If the wax lies with asterisks, expect good luck in the service, in your studies.

Fortune telling with a boat

For this fortune-telling, they take a basin of water so that it is not completely filled with water. On the sides of this basin, bent strips with the names of fortunetellers are hung or attached, or possible events are written on them: wedding, hobby, kidnapping, passionate love, failure, illness, etc. take a walnut shell (half of it) and set a small candle stub in the middle of it (you can use a Christmas tree). They start the boat in the middle of the basin, and depending on which edge it approaches and which piece of paper it sets on fire, such an event will happen to the one whose name is written on the piece of paper or who is guessing.

Fortune telling with a cat

Make a wish, call your cat. If she crosses the threshold of the room with her left paw, the wish will come true. If right - not destined.))

Forecast for the year

Take six small glasses, pour some water into them. Put it in turns (so that there is something in each glass) - salt, sugar, a piece of bread, a coin (coin), a ring, a match.

* Salt - to tears, to be sad ...

* Sugar is a sweet life, successful in the year

* Bread - bread, well-fed life in the year

* Money - to money per year

* Ring - marriage / marriage in the year

* Match - to the child.

Then they take turns blindfold and come up and choose a glass. What they are pulling with is a forecast for the coming year! The most truthful thing is that for the first time, you can draw it out for the second time - this is, as it were, the background of the year.

Fortune telling (with a ring or needle) on the sex of the unborn child

Method number 1.

Certain actions are performed with a ring or a needle (the ring is dipped into a glass of water, a woolen cloth is pierced with a needle), then, suspended by a thread or thread, it is slowly lowered near the hand of the one who is being guessed at. If an object (ring, needle) begins to make circular movements, a girl will be born (less often - a boy), if pendulum-like - a boy (less often - a girl), if the object does not move - there will be no children.

Method number 2.

Put the gold ring in a glass of water and put it overnight in the frost (or in the freezer, if thaw). Observe the result in the morning. Frozen water without bumps means a childless life. How many bumps there are, so many sons will be born, and if there are only pits on the frozen surface, expect daughters. Remember, whatever happens to you in fortune-telling, the good will come true, but do not believe in the bad, the main thing is to be confident in your happiness.

On the evening before Epiphany, write on the pieces of paper twelve of your wishes and put them under your pillow before going to bed. Waking up in the morning, take out three pieces of paper at random, those desires that will be indicated on these pieces of paper and must be fulfilled.

Before going to bed on Epiphany evening, put a mirror brought from the street under the bed and spread fir branches around it. Write your wish on the mirror with your hand. If the inscription disappears in the morning, the wish will come true.

Spread a handful of small items on the table, such as nuts, seeds, etc. Make a wish and count the number of items. If their number is even - the wish will come true, respectively, the number of objects is odd - the wish will not come true.

Divination for love

You need to guess at love, of course, by candlelight, from evening to morning, the most romantic time. Everybody heard about fortune-telling in front of mirrors, peeping out of the betrothed, some even did it, but for some reason few talk about what they saw. Let's not guess what is there - something scary or something uninteresting, we'd better talk about funny or original ways find out the future:

- Run out into the street and ask the name of random passers-by. That is how the groom will be called. If fortune-telling takes place in a heterosexual company, the guys can thus recognize the name of the future bride. The main thing is not to scare the girls passing by.

- Put two matches on the sides of the box and set them on fire. The matches burned out and bent to each other - the hidden couple will be together. If not, then they will disperse. It is advisable to put out matches on time, without waiting for the whole matchbox to light up and flare up.

- Fortune telling by hairs in a bowl of water. At night you need to put a pinch of salt, sugar and ash in water, mix everything and let the water calm down. Then lower your hair and your betrothed. If the hair is intertwined in the morning, there will be a wedding. If not, then it's not destiny. For the next Epiphany, boldly pull out the hair of the next guy.

Baptism money conspiracy

It is done on the night of Epiphany, or Epiphany (January 18-19). Exactly at 12 o'clock in the morning, you need to collect a can of water for a conspiracy for Epiphany on the river, in a well or in an ordinary water tap. The can must be made of unpainted metal (aluminum or steel).

At the edge of the can, you need to strengthen a wooden cross made of coniferous tree- Christmas tree, pine, cypress or juniper. You can make a cross yourself by cutting out with a knife or tying two branches crosswise. Also, three church candles must be strengthened along the edges of the can. Throw three coins of different denominations into the water and, preferably, different metals... In the old days, they threw copper, silver and gold. To modern man it is difficult to get them, especially gold. If you cannot find three coins of different metals, you can take coins of two metals (but not one). Over this water, read the Baptismal conspiracy twelve times:

In the night I get up, I take holy water. Holy water, holy night, sanctify soul and body, come on, angels, overshadow with quiet wings, bring God's peace, bring God into my house. I greet God, I sit God at the table, I pray to the Most Holy Theotokos and John the Baptist: the Baptist of Christ, the honest Forerunner, the extreme prophet, the first martyr, the fasting and hermit-dwellers, the mentor, the purity of the teacher and the close friend of Christ! I pray to you, and running to you do not take me away from your intercession, do not forsake me who have fallen in many sins; renew my soul with repentance, like a second baptism; Cleanse me, the sins of the defiled one, and compel me to bring in, and perhaps nothing badly enters the Kingdom of Heaven. Amen.

After that, the prayer to the Theophany of the Lord is read over the water and coins.

In fact, there are a great many Epiphany fortune-telling, from scary to ridiculous, and the point is, first of all, how you treat them. If with healthy humor, then this is an opportunity to pass several winter evenings with girlfriends beautifully and cheerfully. Just do not take seriously the results of fortune-telling, whatever they may be. Although no, let's put it differently. Believe only in rosy predictions!

The werewolf "Fire Serpent", which appears to girls in the form of a beautiful youth, is especially dangerous on Epiphany night. They say that if the "Fire Serpent" falls in love with a girl, this love is incurable forever. "Without loving, you will fall in love, without praise, you will praise," the old ladies warn young girls about the appearance of a handsome man. "He knows how to spoil the soul, the villain. He knows how to speak speeches. He, ruthless, with a girlish heart, will play the girl in hot embraces. From his kisses the girl burns a rosy dawn. Without him, the girl sits in anguish, without him dries herself ...". You can protect yourself from a handsome werewolf by drawing a cross on the doors or pouring snow collected on Epiphany evening onto the stove.

But in the absence of stove knobs in modern apartments, we advise you to wash yourself with snow water in the morning on the day of Epiphany: as you will say, from this "they are white without whitewash, ruddy without blush." You can not limit yourself to washing, but try to swim in the ice hole. It has long been a custom in Russia to swim in an ice-hole for Epiphany, despite the fact that Epiphany frosts were considered the most severe.

How do Epiphany fortune-telling predict the future? Why can you see the past from them and how do they look into the souls of people, guessing the thoughts and feelings of both those present and those who are far from us? Why, wondering about a distant friend, you so clearly imagine what is going on in his soul? All these questions have no answer. We believe the fortune-telling for Epiphany 2018 and entrust our destiny to them in order to receive truthful answers to our questions.

1. Divination in Baptism:

1. Take 6 small glasses, pour some water into them. Put it in turns (so that there is something in each glass) - salt, sugar, a piece of bread, a coin (coin), a ring, a match.
Salt - to tears, to grieve ...
Sugar is a sweet life, lucky in the year
Bread - bread, well-fed life of the year
Money - to the money of the year
Ring - marriage \ marriage of the year
The match is for the child.
Then they take turns blindfold and come up and choose a glass. What they are pulling with is a forecast for the coming year!
The most truthful thing is that for the first time, you can draw it out for the second time - this is, as it were, the background of the year.
Almost everything comes true for me !!!

2. One of the most common methods is to throw a shoe out of the gate. But since there is not much with the gates now, and who may be there, behind the gates, it is unknown, this method is rarely used. And earlier it was possible to know with certainty which side the betrothed would come from.

3. Eavesdropping. Climb to Epiphany under the neighbors' window and listen. If they have a showdown with the smashing of dishes, you will understand what year it will be. If the house is quiet - and your year will be harmonious.

4. Divination by dreams. They put a comb or a king of diamonds under the pillow and make a dream about the betrothed. If a girl really wants to get married, she will certainly dream of someone.

5. At the time when everyone is gone, the girl takes a broom or broom and begins to sweep the room. Each time, swinging to the right, she says a prayer, and swinging to the left, utters a curse with the name of evil spirits. Then he makes a line with coal in the middle of the floor and stands to the right, that is, to the place that was swept away with prayer. Then he says the following: "The betrothed-mummer, appear before me, like a leaf before the grass."

6. Fortune telling with fir branches for Epiphany 2018. Prepare a medium-sized mirror and some spruce branches before midnight. Before going to bed, put a mirror under the bed, spread it around it fir branches... Write your deepest desire on the mirror. If in the morning the inscription on the mirror disappears, then your wish will certainly come true.

7. Divination for faithful love for Epiphany 2018.
The more accurately the question is asked, the more accurate you will get the answer. Therefore, the question needs to be clearly formulated. Otherwise, you can get confused and even hurt.
A simple rule of thumb for simple questions: phrasing the question so that it can be answered (mentally) "yes" or "no."
Try to translate all negative questions into positive ones: not “how can I get it back?”, But “is it worth returning it?”; not "what will hinder me?", but "what will help me?"
Another recommendation: don't ask stupid questions to cards. The question should be clear to the cards.
1. You take a deck of 36 cards and think about your beloved from the very beginning of fortune-telling. You shuffle a deck of cards.
2. Place six cards face down in front of you from left to right. Place six more cards under this row (also face up).
3. If in the resulting solitaire two cards of the same value lie diagonally, then immediately remove them from the layout. Place new cards from the deck in the remaining spaces (starting from the top row from left to right). If they are of the same merit, then take it away again.
4. Spread out the third row, remove the extra cards. Then - the fourth, fifth, etc.
5. After - collect the whole deck again, starting from the end. Then repeat points 2 to 5 again, BUT - the row must be made of five, then four, three and two cards.
6. Count the number of remaining pairs of cards. Their meanings:
One couple - a secret friend of the heart wants to marry you. You just have to not miss your chance.
Two couples - he loves you and, most likely, madly!
Three pairs - he likes you.
Four pairs - he misses you.
Five pairs - he thinks about you.
Six pairs - CHANGES!
Seven couples - unfortunately, now he does not think about you. Maybe you will tell fortunes on him another time?

8. Fortune telling on straw
The girls stood with their backs to the omet and chose one of the straws hanging from above, throwing their heads back. The straw you liked had to be firmly grasped with your teeth and carefully pulled out. If there was an ear on the other end, it means that the girl will marry a rich man, but if the ear breaks off, it means that she will grieve with the poor man all her life. Therefore, they tried to pull the straw slowly so that the ear would not break off.
It was possible to tell fortunes on tangled straw. Several girls gathered together and kneaded, whipped up a heap of straw brought into the house. A straw ball was placed on the table, and a pan of water was placed on it, at the bottom of which was a stone. Then each girl pulled out a straw for herself. This was not so easy to do, because all the straws were very twisted and pulled out with difficulty. Straw rustled, water spilled over the edge, and the stone scraped along the bottom of the pan. The girls listened to these strange sounds and guessed human speech in them.
In a large and noisy company, they used to guess differently on the straw. The fortuneteller took an even number of straws (at least six) and tied them into a bundle. Then he tied ears in pairs at one end, and straw balls at the other. Then the bundle was untied in the middle and saw what happened. If the paired straws formed a continuous ring, the fortuneteller was in for great luck. If an open chain or several separate rings came out, then expect trouble in the new year.

9. Divination in incense for Epiphany 2018
Fortune-telling should be done alone.
At about 12 o'clock, lock the door, lower the curtains, lay a clean tablecloth, put two appliances on the table, light a candle, sit at the table in front of one of the appliances, put a piece of incense on both plates and start reading the fortune-telling plot, while right hand then from one device, then from the other, take a piece of incense on the table, and put the other under the pillow. Go to bed, the dream will be prophetic: what you wondered about, you will see.
Incense gets along in church,
At home they disease is ruled,
On Epiphany, they guess at him.
Frankincense, incense, it would be alright
You tell fortunes, learn the whole truth.
How are you, incense-father,
Pure, holy and honest, so
And my dream be true. Amen.
The most sure thing, despite all sorts of fortune-telling and predictions, is to come to church, light a candle and say: "Lord, if there is my half that pleases you, let it be with me" or "Lord, take away all unnecessary and send the one you need." And he will definitely come, this half will appear. Even if you have to wait a bit for that.
If the problem of the groom is not the only thing that worries you or you have been married for a long time, then you can get answers to the most burning questions.
To do this, you need to tie a ring to a thread, take the thread by the other end and rest your elbow on the table, hold the ring over the candle flame and mentally ask him any questions. If the answer is yes, the ring will swing towards you - away from you, and if negative - from right to left.
Many beliefs related to the fate of man are associated with the feast of the Baptism of the Lord in folk Russia.

10.How to draw your happiness?
Do the following to the waxing moon for nine consecutive nights.
Light a red or scarlet candle. On a piece of red colored paper, write your full name starting from the bottom of the sheet. Above your name, write the full name of the person you want to seduce and bewitch, write his or her date of birth even higher, and finally, in the top line, your date of birth. Draw a heart around the lettering, so that all names and dates are written inside the drawing. Above, above the heart, write the names and dates of birth again in the same order. Repeat this three times in succession. You will have a drawing of three hearts, one above the other, and six repeated inscriptions of names and dates. Remember to write and draw from the bottom up. Then, crumple the piece of paper and light it on a candle flame. Place the burning leaf on a saucer or ashtray.
While it is on, say three times:
Burn, shining flame
red fire is the color of desire.
For 10-15 minutes or more, observe the light, thinking about the purpose of your witchcraft. Then extinguish the candle without blowing out in any way. On the last, ninth night, leave the candle to burn out.

Someone believes in the power of fortune-telling for Epiphany 2018, while others believe a terrible sin... But everyone has their own opinion on this matter. We recommend that you read how to make a wish for Baptism so that it comes true.
