5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Book!, November 27, 2007

By	MayHawk (NY, USA) - See all my reviews

This review was previously published on MerlianNews.com, and is written by Cheryl Shainmark

Your Future in a Coffee Cup is a true gem - small, brilliant, and evocative of history, storytelling and romance - everything you could ask for in a book. The author, Sahar Huneidi, is a gifted psychic and intuitive who has helped numerous people over the years with her readings and teachings. Her talents include divining in a variety of ways, among them, through the medium of coffee grounds.

The history of coffee, where it came from and how it entered the Western world is entertaining enough, but when you include the many generations of soothsayers (mostly women) and the oral traditions for scrying that they passed on, you begin to get a feel for the romance of this tradition. The author is a decendant of one of the four great Sufi Masters, Abdul Kader Al Gilani. With Your Future in a Coffee Cup, Ms. Huneidi invites us to join this tradition and gives us the tools and instruction to do it.

The illustrations and the lay-out of the book are excellent. The author shares actual readings she has done with her clients, along with photographs of the cups of coffee grounds she is scanning for the divination. The readings are fascinating, as is Ms. Huneidi's talent and creativity for intuiting the story behind them - what has happened, what is really on the mind of the enquirer, and what the future holds for that person.

Along the way the author offers exercises for the reader to expand his or her own talents for fortune-telling. The combination of instruction and following actual readings really works - this book really delivers! What looks like just a cup of mud in the beginning unfolds to reveal a wealth of symbol and meaning by the end. Sometimes the symbols jump out at you, other times some imagination and creativity is required, but that's the fun and intuitive part of it. The author mentions that this is a popular tradition in many countries - Greece, Turkey, India, the Middle East and Russia among them--and she will often give a different culture's interpretation of the same symbol. Interestingly enough, she notes that women of different cultures who read the same cup will note and interpret completely different symbols, and yet come up with similar fortunes.

For a slim book, there is a wealth of information and inspiration packed in Your Future in a Coffee Cup. The average reader will finish it and want to run out and start grinding their own coffee right away! And if, as the author says, there is power in the ability to foresee the future - to know what is coming or how to make different choices - then there is a great amount of power in this book that will get you there.

This is a superb book. I'm sure that the book will soon become a classic and the new, raised standard for the books from esotheric field. The book is filled with common sense, clear case studies and fantastic glossary of symbols. No hidden extras nor unnecessary mistification of the subject. I warmly recommend the book to lay persons and/or professionalls alike In one word-Bravo Mrs Huneidi!

5.0 out of 5 stars Empowerment in a coffee cup!, October 8, 2007

By	K. Sterling Clickner "videxpress" (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

It's one thing to have a psychic reading or to go to a coffeehouse for some spiritual guidance, but it is totally empowering and private to be able to read your own coffee grounds. This book and coffee set makes the best gift I have ever given anyone. Every person I have bought it for just raves about it and wants to know where to get it! It's absolutely the most fun I have ever had with a cup of coffee. I actually had a coffee reading party and bought one kit for everyone who attended, so we could all sit together, have our coffee and read our grounds together. It was so empowering and so much fun - move over lingerie parties! This is the absolute best gift for a bridal shower, and everyone will want a turn. And the cup and saucer that is included is beautiful and makes you feel as though you are part of a long history. I can't recommend this unusual book enough!
