Fortune telling in January 2024
From 1 to 5 otherworldly entities, it is desirable to give a rest. Even laying out cards is not recommended. And on the night of 6 to 7, on Christmas Eve, you can ask the spirits the most important questions - this is the best period for ritual ceremonies.But you need to remember that from 6 to 13 Light forces answer questions, and from 13 to 19 - dark, evil ones.
Strongest days:

But don't hide magical attributes and cards after 19.01. On the night of the 21st, girls can ask Saint Agnes to show her betrothed. Spirits will surely answer the questions asked on the day of St. Tatiana, 25.01. From February 31 to February 1, the church honors the memory of Saints Athanasius Lomonos and Cyril, and men can try their luck, how successful they will have a year, whether they will be able to live in abundance, what the harvest will be.

And then you need to go to bed and ask fate to show someone who loves. If there is such a person, he will definitely dream about it.
Recommendations for rituals
In order for everything predicted to come true, certain rules must be followed. It is especially important to consider astronomical events when laying out Tarot cards.
You can't rely on the answers of the spirits if the rites were performed on the 1st, 13th, 19th, 23rd, 26th, 29th lunar day of the month. The best time is 6, 11, 16, 27, 30. It is not recommended to guess on the cards during the new moon, full moon and the period of the lunar eclipse.

| January 2024 | 11 | 25 |
Affect the reliability of predictions and days of the week:
- On Monday, cards should be preferred.
- Tuesday is the best time to ask questions that are easy to answer yes or no. The probability of error in interpreting ambiguous predictions is too high.
- Wednesday - Don't take results too seriously. But the rites cannot be repeated.
- Thursday - on this day, spirits do not like to upset. If the rite is unsuccessful, you need to think about whether the person you asked about is needed, or whether it is worth starting a new business.
- Friday is the best day for divination.
- Saturday - don't take predictions seriously.
- Sunday - on Holy Day it is better to refrain from rituals even at Christmas time, or treat them like a game.
The most popular ways of divination in December are on cards, on treats, food, on water. In January, it is better to use candles, mirrors, cereals, combs, hair and shoes in rituals.
One of the ways for men to find out what kind of wife will be:
It is necessary at midnight to draw water from a polynya in a natural reservoir, and then put the dishes out the window, under the moonlight.Check the ice in the morning. If it is even - the wife will be accommodating, wavy - there will be quarrels in the family, mounds - to constant squabbles, and if it does not freeze - the wedding will have to be postponed for a year.
Winter fortune-telling is the most correct. If you ask the right questions and choose good days, you can get reliable predictions.
