About this book
The contents list instruction in reading the cup, general theories of interpretation, a dictionary of symbols, combinations of symbols and example cups with their interpretations. The directions call for a plain, even cup surface without a pattern, since a pattern tends to confuse the symbols formed by the tea leaves. The preparation requires about a teaspoonful of tea to remain in the cup, which is taken in the left hand and turned three times from the left with a quick swing.
The symbol dictionary associates a hare with an absent friend's return after a long absence, a running hare with a journey, and a dead hare with money acquired through industry. The harp entry calls the symbol a sign of melancholy and predicts the possibility of a nervous breakdown.
