Sun 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 sun is read as success, gladness and clarity: the dark stretch is ending, the matter is coming clear, recognition arrives. It is one of the brightest signs anybody finds in a cup.
What the sign actually shows
The sun comes through when things are clearing up inside you. It is about the warmth and the confidence that are already rising in you on their own. Look at where in your life the weather has broken and the view has opened out.
Sun by place in the cup
At the rim the sun says it will brighten up very soon. Nearer the bottom it is about light that took a long time to ripen in you and clarity you won long ago. Beside the handle the sun warms your home and warms you. On the far side it is recognition that will come to you from other people. A big clear circle weighs more than a dim little patch.
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 the sun 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 sun works as a mirror here and sets nothing in your future.
What does the sun at the bottom of the cup mean?
The bottom of the cup is the distant and the deep. The sun 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.
