Mushroom 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
The mushroom is read as sudden growth: quick luck, an opening that sprang up overnight. It carries a warning too, since plenty of what looks tempting in a wood turns out to be the wrong thing to pick.
What the sign actually shows
A mushroom comes through when there is an easy, fast gain somewhere within reach. It is your own temptation to grab whatever has popped up in front of you. Coffee cannot weigh a chance for you. How firmly does that one stand on its stem?
Mushroom by place in the cup
A mushroom near the rim points to a sudden opening popping up in the next few days. Sunk toward the bottom, it belongs to an old temptation, or to a gain that has been beckoning for years. By the handle it is your own itch to reach out and take it, opposite the handle it is something tempting that other people push your way. A big firm mushroom looks more solid than a small slimy one.
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 mushroom 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 mushroom works as a mirror here and sets nothing in your future.
What does the mushroom at the bottom of the cup mean?
The bottom of the cup is the distant and the deep. The mushroom 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.
