Fortune-telling at Christmas time will allow you to find out about your fate and the number of years to come. Also, Christmas fortune-telling can tell about the future husband and family life with him, which is especially interesting for young unmarried girls.
It often happens that modern young unmarried girls do not know what to do during the New Year and Christmas holidays.
Many people waste their precious time on a banal rest at the TV and computer.
Some make trips to visit, various household and household chores and all sorts of pre-holiday fuss.
But in the traditions of our people there are more than funny and interesting options holiday pastime.
For example, divination at Christmas time for a betrothed or guidance love spell at home.
Folk holiday Svyatki - a time of fortune-telling
Christmas time is one of the most important periods of the year. This is the time between two key holidays of Christianity - the Birth and Baptism of Christ the Savior. In total, Christmas time takes twelve days, starting with Kolyada (in the Slavic tradition) or Christmas on the seventh day of the first month of the year and ending with the actual feast of Epiphany, celebrated on the nineteenth of January.
In church tradition, this time is considered sacred and blessed, ideal for communion, confession, reading prayers and thanksgiving to God. On the other hand, it is believed that during this period the line between the worlds is significantly weakened, so information from otherworldly universes becomes available to a person.
That is why it is best to guess on holy days - there is a high probability of obtaining the most reliable information about those things that are normally closed to a person.
Orthodox Church does not welcome any fortune-telling practices, and fortune-telling at Christmas time, and even more so, considers it sinful. After all, a person must initially submit to the will of God, trusting him in everything, including in choosing his life partner. And to resort to the help of the Unclean One in order to find out what awaits a person in the near future, and at all for Orthodox Christian shameful.
Rules of Christmas divination
The Slavic tradition developed its own beliefs about how to get around these conventions.
For example, in order for fortune-telling to come true and stain a person as little as possible, you must remember to do the following:
- read by heart prayers before the rite, in order to be cleansed beforehand, and also after the rite, in order to remove sin from oneself;
- be sure to remove belts, jewelry and especially pectoral crosses from yourself before divination;
- it is better to carry out the ritual in a deaf and uninhabited place; previously, baths or old huts were chosen for this, where there were no icons, in modern conditions bathrooms, a garage or any technical room are suitable;
- fortune-telling should only be started at night, when the sun is below the horizon;
- during fortune-telling, one should remember that everything is in the hands of God, especially not to worry about unsuccessful fortune-telling or bad omens;
- it is advisable not to guess alone, but to do it together: fortune-telling in solitude not only overtakes fear, but also opens the soul of a person to evil spirits;
- you need to guess by a strictly defined group of people, for example, if girls are going to guess, then do not let the guys in, and the number of girls must be odd;
- in no case should you cross your legs during fortune-telling, so as not to interfere with fate to appear on those ritual things that are used in the process of the ceremony;
- at the end of the ritual, go to church, confess, light candles for your loved ones, ask God for forgiveness.
Standard fortune-telling for Christmas time for your betrothed is distinguished by its simplicity and traditionalism.
Who hasn't heard of the famous boot toss or church eavesdropping? And the rituals for the coming dream, which involve placing one or another object under the pillow, with the help of which the betrothed will have access to the dream of the girl who made the ritual, and have become a classic. Many of these practices were described by the greats (Pushkin, Gogol and others), who were no strangers to folk traditions Slavs.
Today fortune-telling takes on a new meaning. The era of computerization makes its own adjustments both in the relationship of people, and in particular the connection of a person with the other world.
Now, for example, it is not necessary to guess from the psalter - you can use any book instead, even modern authorship. And the mysterious and mystical divination with a mirror corridor has already managed to turn into an equally strange divination with a computer monitor.
Do these methods really work or are they just a good imitation of real fortune-telling? Probably, it all depends on the person's faith, but experts still recommend not to deviate from grandfather's traditions, reproducing ancient rituals in all subtleties and details, as they were originally described. Here are some of these divinatory techniques.
Methods of divination in the name of the betrothed
Divination with a mirror
The best fortune-telling for Christmas time for the betrothed are those that are made with mirrors. But, if there is not enough courage to close oneself in a bathhouse or an abandoned hut alone with a mirrored corridor, one option remains - to make this simple and very effective fortune-telling:
- In advance, you need to pick up a medium mirror (preferably in the girth of the arms), as well as 2 spruce branches (but any evergreen tree will do).
- Divination should start at midnight. To do this, the name of the person you like is written on the mirror, the mirror is placed under the bed.
- Around mirror surface branches of a Christmas tree are laid.
- In the morning, preferably without getting out of bed, you should take out the ritual object from under the bed and look at it.
- If the inscription on the mirror surface is visible, therefore, in the near future you will have a serious relationship with this person, marriage. But if the name is not visible, then it is not destiny.
In rare cases, certain signs appear next to the name of a person written on a mirror, the most dangerous of them is a cross, denoting a severe blow, illness or loss of the one about whom they wrote.
With the help of some rituals, you can find out not only the name of the future husband assigned to the girl by her fate, but also the year or even the specific date of marriage with him. For Christmas divination for a betrothed mummer, it is proposed to do the following:
Type in a large basin clean water(ideally - not from a tap, but from a key or a river) to the brim. Precook a large number of separate pieces of paper with names written on them and separately with the years or dates of the proposed marriage (it can be in the form of “in a year”, “in two years”, etc.). At the same time, it is important to twist each piece of paper into a neat tube so that it does not unfold on its own, but remains in a twisted state.
The more options for dates and names are shown on paper, the higher the likelihood that fortune-telling will show the truth, so you should not be lazy when writing this data.
By candlelight, as soon as the clock strikes midnight, in one fell swoop, throw the names and dates prepared on paper into a container of water. Now you need to carefully monitor what is happening on the surface of the water. Water, as a universal conductor of the true energies of the world, will tell the truth about the future, pushing the truthful options to the surface.
- Which piece of paper will open first with a name - that’s what the betrothed will be called.
- What is the first piece of paper with a date to open - then marry him and go.
At present, however, this fortune-telling should be deciphered much more widely, remembering the first few names and dates that unfold, which is associated with the high prevalence of divorces and remarriages in society.
Another option for divination for Christmas time in the name of the betrothed is carried out with the help of one of the close relatives.
It can be a mother, aunt, sister, cousin or friend of a fortune-telling girl. The main condition of this ritual is that the fortuneteller herself should not be present at it. And it's done like this:
The main character - a fortune-telling girl - is taken to another hut (preferably an unfamiliar one) or at least to another room, after which they are put to bed.
At midnight, her friend or relative takes a padlock and closes with it some item of clothing of the girl who spends the night in another house.
A woman should place the key to the cherished lock at the head of her bed, while saying:
“Betrothed-mummers, come quickly to save your bride, unlock it with a key, help out of trouble!”.
Then the accomplice of fortune-telling also fits in for the night, trying not to move the key from its original place. Her friend's fiancé must come to her at night for a key to rescue his love.
In the morning, the castle is opened, the girl is returned to her father's house and she is told the dream of her friend or relative about her betrothed.
And at Christmas time, you can not only guess at the groom, but also bewitch the one who has already liked.
However, it is better before this fortune-telling to first make sure that the chosen person is destined by fate by checking this on other fortune-telling methods. Only after such a check can one proceed directly to the fortune-telling-love ritual.
You need to take a red apple and cut out a heart-shaped triangle from it. Then, on a very small piece of paper, write the name of a loved one and place it in an apple instead of a core. Top the paper insert with a cut out heart.
After that, the resulting composition must be set aside somewhere away from idle eyes, in a dry and dark place For a three days. After these three days, they check what happened to the fruit.
- If the apple begins to dry, then the beloved will pay attention to you and also fall in love.
- If the apple starts to rot, it means that it’s not destiny to be with him and it’s better to stop loving him right away, giving up trying to charm him.
And now we will look at some old Christmas divination, which can be combined under the general name: fortune-telling for a dream. By the way, during Christmas time all dreams are prophetic! So from January 7 to 19, be especially attentive to everything that you see in a dream.
But now we will try the most simple methods, using which you can, for example, see your future husband in a dream or find out when your wedding will take place and whether your marriage will be successful, and just find out what awaits you in next year. I would like to make a reservation right away that most of the Christmas divination in general, and for sleep in particular, our great-great-grandmothers used to see their betrothed. After all, you must admit that it is always easier to wait when you know who you are waiting for ... And now, while Christmas time is coming, you will have wonderful opportunity try at least with one eye to look at that “prince on a white horse”, the image of which always lives in the soul of every girl and woman.
Prophetic dream
Another fortune-telling is called "on prophetic dream". Here, on the contrary, you need to properly comb your hair before going to bed, and be sure to use a clean comb, and then put it under your pillow. The pillowcase on the pillow should also be clean and fresh. In this fortune-telling, you do not have to utter any conspiracies, just when you lie down in bed, think about the person you would like to love: how he should look, what eyes, hair, what voice he will have. The clearer the image you create and the stronger the strength of your desire to see your loved one in the flesh, the sooner you yourself will attract him into your life. At first you will see him just in a dream, and after a while you may run into him on the street, in the subway or at a friendly party. After all, our thoughts are material, and they can become our reality tomorrow...
Divination for the fulfillment of a wish
Ah, these desires... We all lack something in life, we always want something, and right away - here and now, we don't want to wait. And if it doesn’t work right away, then you need to at least know exactly what will come true and when (if it comes true, of course). That is why we are now trying to guess the fulfillment of desire.
Salt is not white death, but a reliable fortune teller
Now let's take a look at a few fortune-telling with salt. Yes, salt is also a magical element. Although, if you look, everything in our world has its own magic, we just do not notice it yet. But we have everything ahead ...
So, salt... Take about a thimble of salt and the same amount of water, mix and eat. Yes, it tastes disgusting, of course, but the results are sometimes simply amazing. You can’t drink anything else before going to bed, otherwise it will spoil all fortune-telling. Before going to bed, say a conspiracy three times: “Who is my betrothed, who is my mummer - he will give me a drink” and fall asleep calmly, thinking about your loved one. You will be madly thirsty, I confess right away, but on the other hand, you will really see your betrothed in a dream, who, seeing how you suffer because of him, will certainly come and give you a drink. And in the morning you will not be thirsty at all.
The next method is usually called "Salty food", it is very similar to the previous one.
The only difference is that before going to bed you do not have to eat a whole thimble of salt. Just eat something salty - for example, herring, pickled cucumbers or pickled mushrooms, but then in no case do not drink, no matter how much you want. Now lie down in bed and imagine your betrothed, draw his image as brightly as possible for yourself and say a conspiracy: “My betrothed, mummers, come to me and give me a drink.” And at night your beloved will come to you and give you a drink, maybe he will not be the same as you planned, but he will definitely come. Now wait for a meeting with him, but not in a dream, but in reality.
I scratch my hair with five fingers ...
Hair divination. Ask your girlfriends for some hairs, you need one red hair, the second is light, and the third is dark. Take a gray hair from your grandmother, and you will also need a widow's hair. The last - the sixth hair - will be yours. Now cut seven squares out of paper and wrap each hair in a separate piece of paper. As you can see, there are six hairs, and seven pieces of paper, so do not put anything in the last seventh square, but simply wrap it empty. All the resulting seven bags should look exactly the same on the outside. Now put them under the pillow, saying: "What is my fate to be - I get such hair." Nothing more can be said tonight.
In the morning, when you wake up, immediately, without looking, pull out one bag from under the pillow and see what kind of hair is there. Red hair means that your husband will also be red and kind, gray - will be much older than you, dark - gloomy, harsh and unkind, light - blond. If you come across a widow's hair, you will either become a widow early or marry a widower, if your hair is yours, then you will live soul to soul with your husband, but if the envelope is empty, you don’t have to count on a successful wedding yet, there is even a risk of staying old maid.
Hay, straw...
Fortune telling on straw is most interesting when there are a lot of people, so invite all your friends and girlfriends. And when midnight strikes, gather all in one room, light a candle and start ... As a result of this fortune-telling, you can find out the name of your betrothed. To do this, collect a heap somewhere: straw (as you can see, it is most convenient to carry out all these fortune-telling somewhere in the village), bring it into the house and beat, crumple and roll it in such a way that all the straws are tangled as much as possible and you it would turn out to be a straw ball that needs to be put on the table. Place a frying pan on top of the resulting lump, and put a medium-sized stone in the frying pan and pour some water. The structure is quite unstable, so be careful that it does not fall apart ahead of time.
Then everyone needs to shut up so that there is complete silence in the house, and only now you can guess. Each girl present should slowly, very carefully pull out one straw from the coma. As you understand, this is quite difficult to do, since twisted and tangled straws are pulled out poorly. To prevent the spikelet from breaking, the straw must be pulled very slowly. But if you have patience and skill, this fortune-telling will not disappoint you. At the same time, the water in the pan will splash slightly, the stone lying in the pan will scrape along the bottom, tremble and oscillate, making different sounds.
Listen carefully! It is in this sound that you should hear the name of your betrothed. In the ensuing silence, you will feel vague sounds that vaguely resemble human speech. They can even distinguish quite specific words. Of course, it’s not so easy right away, that’s why, while you are guessing, there should be complete silence in the room so that not a single sound clogs your hearing and distracts your attention from trying to hear the name of the dearest person ...
Divination on a mitten
This method will simply help you determine whether it is worth waiting for a person who is somehow delayed. For example, your fiancé is stuck somewhere at work again or something worse... Take an ordinary mitten or mitten and throw it up to the ceiling as high as possible. And now watch how it will fall down: if thumb up, this means that the one you are waiting for will definitely arrive, he is already on his way; and if the thumb is down, then, alas, today you are again out of luck. But maybe this person is not worth waiting for at all? Think...
a swan song
For this divination you will need a lot of wax. If you couldn’t get the wax, you can get out of the situation by taking a few large paraffin candles and melted them down. From the resulting paraffin, while it is still warm, blind, as far as possible, to the best of your artistic abilities, a flock of swans (but do not forget that each swan must have a pair). There should be as many swans as the girls will participate in fortune-telling. Therefore, get together one evening with your friends and do “sculpting” ... Now paint the swan with blush, and let the swan remain white. Now you all have a pair of swans, remember where whose is, you can somehow mark them so as not to confuse them later.
Then you need to take a large basin or wooden tub and fill it with water about three-quarters. Although if there are few people and the swans are also small, then a small bowl or pan will be enough. Now each of you should carefully lower your pair into the water, and then cover the entire vessel with a piece of cloth. And before you go to bed, go and see how your swan swims with a swan. If they swim together, then your family life it will turn out well, you will live soul to soul with your husband, in full agreement, but if the swans parted in different sides, then you will not be lucky in marriage - quarrels and strife, constant conflicts, so think carefully before you get married next year.
Future on the water
Tell me, have you ever wondered how many children you will have and what gender? I think yes. So let's try to answer it with the help of fortune telling.
In the evening, pour water into a glass, dip the ring into it and put it outside in the cold. And somewhere around midnight, before going to bed, bring a glass into the house and see how the ice freezes. Count the number of tubercles formed and the number of holes or pits. The number of tubercles indicates how many sons you will have, and the number of holes indicates how many daughters. Now you know whether you will be a heroine mother of many children or you will have an ordinary family - a son and a daughter.
Eat a lot of salty food in the evening so that you will be more thirsty at night. Going to bed, say the phrase: "My betrothed, come to me in a dream, bring me water." The one that you dream is yours future husband.Before going to bed, in the place where you usually lie, build a bridge out of twigs. Put a pillow on it and, falling asleep, say: "My betrothed, take me across the bridge." According to the reviews of fortunetellers, it is known that the groom really comes in a dream. You can check it for yourself.
You can try another old one. Take the lock, turn on the water in the tap. Hold the lock over the stream and say: "My betrothed, come to me in a dream, ask for water." Then the lock is locked and placed under the pillow. This night her future husband should dream.
Take a comb and put it under your pillow before going to bed. Say the phrase: "My betrothed, come in a dream and comb me."
It is believed that an unclean spirit comes to a girl in a dream in the form of her future groom.
Maps will help you find out your future husband. Take a deck, take out four kings, put them under the pillow. Say: "My betrothed, my mummers, come to visit me." In a dream, you will see your fiance in the form of one of the kings. It is quite possible that the betrothed will dream of more than one. How many men you will see, so many will be in the future.
Not only themselves, but also their mothers can call the future groom. To do this, you need to take the girl's thing, hang a lock on it. Say: "Betrothed, come to rescue the bride." Next, the thing, together with the lock, is placed under the pillow. And the son-in-law should dream of his future mother-in-law. Perhaps she will also be shown a number in a dream, which will mean the number of years before her daughter's marriage.
Street fortune-telling for a betrothed
Sit at the window at night, your family should already be asleep so as not to disturb you. Say: "Betrothed, pass by my window." Now wait for the first pedestrian or company of passers-by to appear. If people passed by the window and at the same time they had fun, whistled, laughed, it means that life in marriage is going to be good. A silent passerby, on the contrary, means a poor existence in.Go outside, find a fence made of boards. Walking along it, say: "Poor or rich, widower or bachelor." On which word the fence ends, this will be the future husband. You can judge the veracity of fortune-telling when you meet your betrothed.
Take boots or boots, go outside. Throw the burden over your right shoulder. Before that, say: “In which direction does my betrothed live?” In which direction the sock or boots will show, from there the groom will come for you.
In another version of fortune-telling, the boots must be removed from the left foot, and not taken out into the street with you in your hands.
You can guess in the name of the future spouse. Bake a pancake, go out with it after 22:00, but no later than midnight. Go ahead and eat a pancake. Ask the first passerby you come across what his name is. It is the name that your future husband will have. If you met a woman first on the street, then you will not get married in the next year.
The tradition of women's fortune-telling dates back centuries, if not millennia, but despite the change of times, girls still want to get at least a hint of a future husband and an upcoming wedding..
How to successfully tell fortunes with girlfriends at Epiphany? How to invoke a prophetic dream about your chosen one? Why wait for the holidays and how can help?
What are the best days to guess
The best are Christmas divination for the betrothed during the winter holidays from Christmas to Epiphany.
Next time for divination - summer holiday Ivan Kupala ( John the Baptist, Kupalskaya night). This is done on the night before the holiday, from midnight to the first roosters, that is, until about 4 o'clock in the morning.
You can guess from Thursday to Friday, but such fortune-telling has less power, since weekdays associated with daily activities, reduce our susceptibility to signs from underworld. On such days, it is much more likely that the prediction will not come true.
In order for the holiday fortune-telling to succeed, it is important to keep the mood for the peculiarity of this time, listen to yourself and try to catch the connection with the world of magic. If you spend Christmas time as usual - work, do household chores - and do not try to break the daily routine in any way, the likelihood correct divination very small.
It is not for nothing that the ancient traditions of divination chose holidays as the best time for contact with other forces: without being distracted by the mundane and material, the fortuneteller could rely on the signs received as truthful information not obscured by everyday problems.
If you are planning fortune-telling for your betrothed for Christmas, stick to the traditions: keep fasting for at least some time, get distracted from worries about earning money, watch TV less, do not talk on the phone, avoid noisy companies on the eve of fortune-telling.
The day after fortune-telling, do not communicate with strangers or unfamiliar people, do not bathe or wash your hair.
Fortune telling on the betrothed with questions
Of course, you may be interested in all the details: what will be the character of the future husband, how he looks, rich or poor, countryman or foreigner, and how you will get along with him. Immediately tune in that it is impossible to find out everything in detail, and it’s not worth it - always leave space for fate to maneuver, of course, in your favor.
Traditional questions that girls have been asking for centuries during divination:
- Is marriage coming soon or will I have to wait?
- who is the groom - a wealthy man or a poor man, without a penny in his pocket?
- Which of your friends will get married first?
- Will the married life be peaceful and smooth or will it be filled with strife and suffering?
- which of the prospective suitors will become a husband?
- what is the groom's name?
Some questions need prompting, such as when to determine a contender for the role of a husband. In this case, you need to offer divination the name of the desired man, names from your environment and several names that your friends do not have.
You should not be tempted by names that are not found in your area or are outdated, just as you should not guess with obviously impossible options (a Hollywood actor, a politician, or a long-dead celebrity).
How to guess with friends
Divination in a group is one of our traditional, primordially Slavic female rituals. Who can participate?
First, all stakeholders, that is, those who will ask questions. Secondly, most often these are unmarried girls, but the participation of an elderly woman is also possible, who, however, does not guess for herself, but only helps to carry out the ritual. Children are not allowed, boys and girls do not come together.
There is an unspoken rule: rivals in love guess separately, and here, of course, there is nothing to comment on.
Tune in to the magical world
One of the most important conditions for successful divination is the right mood and attitude to one's actions. Avoid guessing for fun, and not out of fear that you will be punished by "offended" spirits, but simply because you will waste time in vain and strengthen your skepticism about the action - next time it will be much more difficult to tune in.
In order for any fortune-telling to give the correct answer to your questions, you need to think over your situation in advance and literally memorize the questions you have chosen. Make sure your “yes” or “no” answers exhaust your question, that is, do not allow ambiguity.
By the way, it is impossible to write down questions, unless the note is involved in the ritual as one of the magical items.
You should cast aside doubts, do not laugh or joke, it is better to guess silently, except for casting the necessary spells. Excitement or fear will do a disservice. It is best to get rid of problems, your everyday mood and do everything as if you are someone else.
How to get an answer in a dream
The magical use of sleep dates back to time immemorial, and a special relationship to the information that comes to us in a dream continues to this day. How to use it amazing time a night's rest to find out your future and your destiny?
Preparing for divination on the narrowed in a dream. Put on your night clothes topsy-turvy, re-lay the sheet on the other side, turn the pillow to your feet instead of the headboard - go to bed " vice versa".
Key lock. Braid one pigtail, attach a closed lock (hinged) in it, and hide the key under the pillow. Saying to the betrothed " Come to me and ask for the key' Go to bed immediately. In the morning, remember who is from.
A thimble of salt. At night, eat some salt from a thimble. Say to the betrothed " Come give me water to drink", Go to bed. In a dream, the image of the future husband will appear.
Bridge. Buy, without bargaining, a new broom, pull out three twigs from it, weave it with a pigtail. Before going to bed, put it under the pillow and say to the betrothed " Come take me across the bridge". Go to bed immediately, try to remember your betrothed in a dream.
Divination on objects
These methods are ideal for a group of girls, because the number of items that participate in the ritual is unlimited and can provide a choice for everyone present. It is better to take items new or at least cleaned.
After divination, all items must either be thrown away or cleaned and kept closed for 7 days in a box, in a closet - for cleaning.
With rings and cereals. At Christmas, cereals (with whole grains) are poured into a large bowl, preferably more, they put many different rings - simple, gold, silver, with stones.
Each girl pulls out a handful of cereal without looking and looks: no ring - the wedding is not this year, simple - for the poor, silver or gold - for a prosperous person, with a stone - for the rich.
On matches. Guess the name of the guy you like. Pull out two matches, stick them on the sides of the box and set fire to it. If the burnt matches are bent towards each other, then very soon the feelings will be mutual.
On wreaths of fresh flowers. On the eve of Ivan Kupala go to the river. Each girl should make herself a wreath of grass and flowers, put on the water. Whoever swims faster - that one will marry first. If the river does not accept the wreath (nails it to the shore), then it will not be married this year.
Notes with names. Write the names of the intended suitors on thin pieces of paper and leave one blank. Roll up all the pieces, mix in a large bowl or bucket of water to make a whirlpool, pull out the note that pops up first. If a blank paper is caught, then the name of the betrothed is not on the list.
Fortune-telling for a betrothed allows you to look into the future and find out the name of a potential spouse, his external data, character, etc. There are many ways, and among them there are very simple ones that do not pose any danger to the fortuneteller, but there are also those with the help of which you can "tickle your nerves." In some magical rites there is an opportunity to personally see the evil spirit in the image of the groom or talk to him in a dream, others will allow you to get truthful information about the feelings of the man you like, the fate of further relationships and the time of marriage.
But it is worth remembering that the desire to know your future with the help of otherworldly forces is a sin and is condemned by the Orthodox Church. In order to wash off the sin later, you can plunge into the hole in the hole on Epiphany night or wash yourself with holy water.

The cemetery can also act as a place for divination, since it is located at the junction of the world of the living and the dead, as well as any crossroads, where you can often feel the presence of otherworldly forces. But these places should not be used by impressionable girls with weak nerves. The boundary spaces in the house have no less mysterious power and are used for divination - these are the thresholds, the front door, the gate, the gate, the corners in the room.
