Tea Leaf Reading Shorts

Description: Tasseography or the art of tea leaf reading is an ancient method of divination. Using this method, it is believed that the tea leaves are affected by our direct energy. The person seeking an answer, known as the 'querent', will sip their tea contemplating the question they seek an answer to, before performing a ritual of swirling and turning, transferring the leaves from saucer and back to cup. After this the querent will interpret the shapes that the leaves make to know the answer they seek. This piece is a fun play on this ancient soothsaying method, with the answer to your question to find acceptance within yourself, to love your self.
