Fortune telling is big business these days. Some people say they have supernatural abilities. They say they can see your future and give you advice about your life. Hundreds of years ago we called them witches and sometimes they were killed or burned. Being a witch was dangerous but today it’s quite safe.
There are many types of fortune telling. For example, some people use tarot cards. These special cards have different meanings and symbols. You might get the card of love, money, work or if you are very unlucky, the card of death. Another system is palm reading. The fortune teller will look at the palm of your hand and tell you about your future by reading the lines on your hand. Some people even read tea leaves. First you must drink the tea then check the pattern of tea leaves at the bottom of the cup to learn your fortune.
It’s a fascinating idea but is it real? There are so many fortune tellers but which are real and which are fake? When scientists try to test fortune tellers it never seems to work. What do you think?
