Candle in Coffee Grounds
Hope and looking forward to a celebration. This is a light sign: it promises good things and softens heavy shapes nearby.
Core Meaning
A candle means hope, faith and looking forward to a celebration. You are waiting for something important, and the wait will be worth it. A lit candle means a secret feeling or enlightenment; a snuffed-out one, something that has burned out.
In Love and Business
In love. A secret love, a warm feeling.
In business and money. An idea, a flash of insight; working late.
Where It Lies in the Cup
- Near the handle: the sign concerns your own life and home: hope and a celebration to look forward to are close to you. This is the surest and nearest position.
- Opposite the handle: this will come through other people, from far away or from outside.
- To the right or left of the handle: on the right, the sign is coming into your life and gaining strength; on the left, the good has already been, and its time is passing.
- At the rim and on the sides: at the rim, the event is on the doorstep — days and weeks; on the sides, the coming months.
- On the bottom: the good is already built into the foundation of the situation: this is support from the past that you can count on.
- Clarity: a clear, large shape is a sure and important sign; a blurry one means the event may still pass you by. Dots around a shape link its meaning to money.
In Combinations
This shape has no established traditional pairs: it's read by its place in the cup and by the mood of the neighboring signs. Next to light shapes its meaning softens; next to heavy ones it becomes sterner.
