The
title of this post might seem weird to some people. It is unusual for foreign societies, but in Arab countries it is totally normal.
One
of the best enjoyments of an Arab day is coffee; whether in the morning,
afternoon or night. It has its rules and characteristics. Coffee is a one of symbols
of Arab generosities; serving coffee to a guest is very important. In some Arab
societies, not serving coffee will be considered an insult, and not drinking
coffee when it's served to you is an insult as well. Coffee traditions are
varied and books have been written on the subject.
When
we drink coffee, we hold the cup gently (usually a traditional cup), we drink
it and enjoy it. When we do so, we transfer our emotions, psyche and
personality into the coffee cup. As a result, we can look into the cup and read
it. Through cup reading, experts can read sign, symbols and names. The Turks
were the first to do coffee cup reading.
This
process is very wide spread in Arab communities. There are people who make a
living out of this; On the one hand, many of those are fortune tellers mostly depend on luck to get something right, and tell people what they want to hear. On the other hand, there are gifted people and foortune tellers who can genuinly read the coffee cup and tell the truth.
Through
special symbols, and the remaining coffee on the edge and bottom of the cup, it
is possible to read and analyze a personality; to know about many aspects:
social, sexual, financial, psychological, health, and general or specific personality
analysis. It can indicate on a person's opinions, commitments, honesty, etc.
.
You
might be reading this with doubt; it is understandable and natural. But I would
like to assure you that after a lot of work, checking and verifying through
experience, I can definitely say that it can be proven. Many people will disagree, but I would like to recommend trying before judging.
