What does this entail?

Tea leaf reading, or tasseography, is an ancient form of divination where a reader interprets patterns formed by tea leaves or other grounds at the bottom of a cup to tell fortunes or gain insight into the past, present, and future. It's a practice that requires the use of loose leaf tea, allows the reader to infuse their energy into the leaves, and then interpret the resulting shapes and symbols to reveal messages from the tea.

Registration includes tea leaves, mini instruction manual for reading your own leaves at home, and a ceramic tea set containing your teacup, saucer AND spoon featuring a classical work by Vincent Van Gogh, all of which you get to keep.

What kind of tea is used?

While tea leaf reading can be done with various kinds, It is recommended to use a soothing tea so to relax the nerves and mind during a reading. Zelda personally prefers using Purple Jasmine. This special blend includes:

Classic Jasmine Tea

Jasmine tea is suitable for tea leaf reading because it is often a loose-leaf green tea with larger leaves, which are easier to interpret than the smaller leaves in tea bags. The gentle aroma and calming effects of the jasmine can also promote the focus and relaxation needed for tasseography, adding a feminine touch and aiding in the creation of distinct patterns.

Kenyan Purple Tea

Purple tea, due to its high antioxidant content from anthocyanins, is seen as a tool for promoting such qualities, helping with emotional balance, enhancing psychic awareness, deepening meditation, and facilitating astral travel or communication with departed loved ones. The tea is also valued for its potential to reduce stress and anxiety, which aligns with its ability to promote calm awareness and relaxation.

Jasmine Blossoms

Jasmine blossoms are associated with promoting love, passion, and emotional balance, while also enhancing spiritual connection, intuition, and a sense of prosperity and luck. They are believed to balance emotions, uplift moods, calm nerves, and aid in spiritual development, sleep, and healing practices. Jasmine also symbolizes purity, warmth, and the sacred feminine.

Cornflower Blossoms

Cornflower blossoms possess metaphysical properties associated with enhancing psychic awareness and intuition, promoting protection from negative energies, and attracting love, good fortune, and prosperity.
