- Choose a light-colored or white tea cup with no pattern and a wide brim. Make a cup of tea in it using a high-quality loose leaf tea without dusty particles. Do not use the contents of a teabag.
- Meditate and empty your mind as your tea steeps.
- If you are left-handed, lift the cup with your right hand and vice versa. Sip your tea while you continue to empty your mind. Slowly allow your mind to begin to focus on an important thought or issue. Leave a little tea and all the tea leaves in the bottom of your cup.
- Gently swirl the leaves in the cup clockwise three times bringing the leaves up to the brim. Pour out the remaining tea by turning the cup upside down on a saucer. Take three breaths then turn the cup right-side up. The leaves will be distributed around the inside of your cup.
- If your cup has a handle, start there and read clockwise. If it doesn't have a handle, begin at the 12:00 spot. Make notes of the symbols you see in the leaves (like Rorschach inkblots) and also note the location (rim, middle, or base).
- Note the first thing each symbol brings to mind.
- The first symbol represents your dominant trait or someone near. Symbols in the rim represent the present. Symbols in the middle section represent the near future. Symbols in the base represent your ultimate truth for all time.
