Dots in Coffee Grounds: What They Mean

Two readings: what folk coffee cup reading says about this sign, and what it actually shows.

What the folk omen says

Dots are read as money, usually in small sums: a little coming in, a find, a fiddly bit of profit. A scatter of dots beside another sign was said to strengthen it and to give the whole matter a money flavor.

What the sign actually shows

Dots get noticed when small outgoings and small takings are on your mind. They are about your eye for the little amounts that add up to whatever you have. Have a look at where the small sums go and where they quietly come back in.

Dots by place in the cup

Dots at the very rim point to a small gain in the next few days. Settled toward the bottom, they are old pennies or something that was put by little by little a long while back. By the handle dots are your own purse and your own small spending, on the far side they are money that moves through other people. A thick clear scatter counts for more than a couple of faint dots you can barely see.

In coffee cup reading the place of a sign tells you when and about whom: nearer the rim is sooner, toward the bottom is further off or out of the past, by the handle is you and your home, opposite the handle is other people.

FAQ

Are dots in coffee grounds a good sign or a bad one?

Neither one on its own, because the grounds do not prophesy. The sign shows what is on your mind, and whether that is light or heavy is yours to weigh. Dots work as a mirror here and set nothing in your future.

What do dots at the bottom of the cup mean?

The bottom of the cup is the distant and the deep. Dots down there are read as an old story or as something coming out of your past. The days just ahead are told by signs near the rim, and other people by the far side from the handle.

The sign in your cup reflected one minute of your life. The chart of the sky for the minute you were born I can work out for real.
