A Christmas tree is shimmering in the corner, on the table there is an abundance of Christmas salads and meat dishes. Many of the treats have already been eaten, gifts have been presented and a lot of aromatic, delicious Christmas mulled wine has already been drunk. More and more often, conversations about everyday life, work break out at the table and, therefore, it's time to remind guests of the magic of this night - the night before Christmas. The best way to do this is to have a fortune telling session. It is no coincidence that there is a huge number of Christmas fortune telling, designed to lift the veil over what the coming year has prepared.

Instructions
Step 1
Shadow Divination Give each guest one sheet of newspaper. Let all those present crumple their leaves at random, mentally making a wish - to find out what the newborn year has prepared for them. Start your fortune-telling. To do this, place the tray against the wall, which will serve as a kind of screen. Place the guest's crumpled piece of paper on it and set it on fire. After it burns out, place a candle behind the tray so that the shadow of the burnt paper falls on the wall. By the configuration of the shadow, one can judge what awaits the owner of the piece of paper in the coming year. When interpreting the result, show imagination and trust your intuition.
Step 2
Divination in wax and milk Prepare a saucer, some milk and natural wax. Pour milk into a saucer, gently melt the wax (you can do this in a tablespoon by putting a piece of wax in it and holding it over the flame of a candle) and start guessing. Aloud or mentally ask a question about the future of the new year, and then pour the wax into the milk. After that, proceed to interpret the result. If the wax formed a figure resembling a cross, then this means illness, a wreath - an imminent marriage, an animal - an ill-wisher. Let each guest repeat the fortune-telling (be sure to stock up on wax from the calculation so that there is enough for everyone), with the help of those present, interpret the result. Time will fly by.
Step 3
Fortune telling on a log If you are out of town, and among your guests there are unmarried girls, then read fortunes on a log. Let each one go to the barn and in the dark pick out a piece of wood. After a piece of wood is brought into the house, it is judged by it about what the future husband of the fortuneteller will be like. If the bark is smooth and thin on the log, but it itself is even, then the future spouse will be beautiful and young. A piece of wood with peeled bark hints at the poverty of the future husband, but if the bark is thick and rough, the marriage partner will not look good. A cracked log warns of the advanced years of the upcoming newlywed, and a gnarled one - of the fertility of future spouses. Each twig on such a log will "tell" about the little life that the spouses will bring into the world.
