Christmas is a mysterious holiday. At all times, it was believed that during this period, the earth comes with divine energy, which benefits people. It is for this reason that Christmas fortune-telling has always been considered the most reliable, such as fortune-telling on Christmas paper. I must say that such beliefs are much older than Christianity itself.

Practically in all agriculturalthe winter solstice period was the most solemn festive cycle associated with the praise of pagan deities. At that time people thanked heaven for a good harvest, asked for intercession and health for the next year. It was also believed that it was at this time that one could satisfy a person's thirst for knowledge of his own future.

It must be said that with the advent of Christianity theserituals have not disappeared anywhere. They just transformed, becoming an organic part of Christian culture, while retaining most rituals and rituals, for example, divination.

Of course, one can not say that guessing on papergoes back to pre-Christian times, because in that distant era this material was not so widespread as it is today. At the same time, even then our ancestors noticed an amazing feature of the winter solstice - at this time any objects can be used to open the veil of the future. With the passage of time only the external form of the divination changes, while the inner essence of the rite remains unchanged.









Fortune-telling on burned paper for Christmas



This divination is held on Christmas Eve. It is important to create the appropriate atmosphere and conduct the ritual in solitude, so that nothing distracts from divination.




  1. Take a blank sheet of white paper and a deep plate.


  2. Well, question the paper, while doing this, thinking about what interests you the most, and put it on a plate. Then set fire to it.


  3. Turn off the light in the room where the divination is conducted, and watch the burning fire. Try not to think about anything.


  4. Look closely at the shadows that cast the flame on the wall. What do they look like?

Guessing on desire on paper



Although traditionally on Christmas fortune-telling has been associated with the sufficiency and prosperity of the future family, as practice shows, fortune-telling on a piece of paper on Christmas Eve is also true.




  1. Write on the clean paper stripthe secret desire or the question that interests you the most. Formulate it in such a way that you can get a one-syllable answer to it: yes or no.


  2. Put the strip on the plate. Note that in this fortune-telling, there is no need to crumble paper.


  3. Set fire to the paper.


  4. The answer lies in how burned downpaper strip. If completely, your wish will come true. If you asked a question, the answer is yes. If, for one reason or another, the paper has not completely burnt, for example, you put it out yourself to avoid a fire (if the edges of the sheet go beyond the plate), your desire will not come true. In view of this, in order not to influence the result, take a large dish, which will fit your leaf.





Divination with a wish paper



An essential shortcoming of such divinationis that they can not be resorted to very often, and for this reason one has to choose only the most cherished. What can I do if I want to know everything at once, because in the year - only one Christmas?

It turns out that our ancestors also looked for a waytake advantage of this inexplicable energy that opens during Christmas and Christmas, and come up with how to get around the harsh ban not to guess at Christmas more than once.





Paper is also used for this.




  1. Take the paper and cut out several identical strips from it.


  2. Write on them all your desires or questions, the answers to which your thoughts occupy.


  3. Take a wide bowl and place in it all the paper strips (the more of them, the larger the capacity should be).


  4. Pour water into the bowl with desires and watch how the paper strips circulate in it.


  5. Remove the one of the strips that emerged tosurface of the first. The desire written on it will come true uniquely in the shortest possible time. Wishes that were written on paper, and did not rise from the maelstrom, will not come true.



There are many more diversedivination and beliefs associated with the saints. For example, guessing on paper for Christmas. It is considered that if you write down the most cherished wish on Christmas Eve, burn it over a glass of wine and drink so that there are not the slightest bits of burnt leaves left, the wish will come true.
