Flower in Coffee Grounds: What It Means
Two readings: what folk coffee cup reading says about this sign, and what it actually shows.
What the folk omen says
A flower is read as joy, tenderness and kind attention: a small happiness, a gift, someone taking a liking to you. A bouquet points to a celebration, a single flower to a quiet gladness.
What the sign actually shows
A flower comes through the grounds when you are reaching for beauty and warmth. It is about being ready to open and to take in something good. Do not walk past the plain small joy that is standing right next to you.
Flower by place in the cup
Closer to the rim the flower promises a small joy within days. Settled toward the bottom, it is about tenderness out of the past or warmth that kept you warm a long time ago. Near the handle the flower is your own liking for someone and the comfort of your home. Away from the handle, kind attention from other people. A large clear bud stands out more than a small smudged dot.
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
Is a flower 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. The flower works as a mirror here and sets nothing in your future.
What does the flower at the bottom of the cup mean?
The bottom of the cup is the distant and the deep. The flower down there is 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.
