Christmas and Christmastide are the most magical, mysterious and mysterious time, which is associated with rituals, fortune-telling, folk customs and imminent signs. From time immemorial in Russia girls have been guessing at the condemned and children, making wishes and trying to look behind the turn of fate. Divination by Christmas on the ring is a simple and accessible ritual that can reliably predict the future, suggest the name of the betrothed and the sex of the unborn child.
The rules of Christmas fortune-telling with a ring:
- it is necessary to use a smooth engagement ring without ornaments, preferably a wedding ring (past the wedding ceremony in the Temple);
- water for the rite should be key, not "dead" (tap water);
- optimal time for divination - 12 nights on Christmas Eve;
- during the ritual you need to observe complete silence.
Divination at Christmas on the hair and ring
Pour in a glass of running water (2/3), thread your hair into the ring, pinch the tips in your fingers (they should not show out!) And bring the ring to the glass. Dip a ring for a couple of seconds in the water, raise it to the sides of the glass and ask the question: "Will I have a wedding in the new year?", "Do I know my future spouse?", "How many years will I marry?", "Will I have children?". The pendulum went around in a circle - the answer is "yes", it swings back and forth - the answer is "no", hung without movement - there is no answer to the question.
Guessing on the ring and nutshells
Pour the water in the basin and drop it on the surface of the shell from the walnut, putting on each object with a sense. Candy - gifts from the grooms, coin - wealth, ring - marriage. An alternative is a note with desires. The guess is followed in the company of girlfriends, alternately blowing on the water. Which shell will sail first, then the wish will come true.
Fortune-telling with a ring and a glass
On Christmas Eve, pour water into the glass and lower the engagement ring into it. Set it in the frost and wait until the water freezes. Consider the resulting pattern: a smooth bubble-free surface portends success and luck in the new year. Bumpy with holes indicates the gender and number of future children. Pits are daughters, bumps are sons.
Divination with a ring and velvet
In the rite should participate at least 6 unmarried girls. Prepare a strip of black velvet, put a wedding ring on it, roll in turn a distinctly spelling spell: "I'll poke a ring, I'll go after him myself, to a nice girl." Each girl should fix, where her ring stopped. The girl whose ring stopped earlier than the others will marry first, later on everyone will find the husband of the last girlfriend.
Divination to see the groom
The most intriguing guessing in Christmas with a ring is the prediction of the appearance of the condemned. At midnight on the eve of the holiday, pour into a glass of running water (3/4), lower the ring to the bottom, whisper: "My betrothed, I'll show up!" And look carefully through the water in the middle of the ring. First, there are indeterminate outlines that begin to gradually acquire more distinct features. You can see the figure and face of the betrothed. Talk during the ritual can not be, not to frighten off a potential husband. Divination by Christmas on the ring should take place in silence, without unnecessary conversations and fuss. The main thing is to concentrate, to discard all doubts, to believe unconditionally in success and destiny will necessarily indicate the right path.
