Intricacies of the Coffee Cup Reading: Coffee shapes have many meanings and my job is to make sense of them. Coffee residue can be read as a whole picture first, to get an overall gist out of it. This preliminary reading would tell us if the wishes of the coffee drinker are coming true or not. Then individuals symbols can be read to unveil the secondary details. Some symbols like a heart or a horse are the most visible ones to any untrained eyes, however some are hidden. In the third level of the reading, scrying method is used where i need to gaze at a particular dark coffee pattern to see more latent details about your life. Some symbols are created by your intentions or fears when sipping your coffee, therefore i always ask the client to stay positive while preparing the coffee. Like most of our alphabets, there are main characters and then combinations of them in the coffee residue. Trees, the sun, the moon, stars, rivers, ocean, iconic landmarks of different destinations, roads, letters, full names, numbers, body shapes, eyes can be traced by looking at the coffee shapes left in your cup. Looking at the location of particular shapes in your cup, it is possible to give an estimate time about when these developments should be expected. Like a detective work, any coffee remnant is used to make a decision. I see all within the cup, look for any shapes on the rims, any dark stains on the saucer, so all material is used to decide what will happen to you.

These days whenever I feel it I do an ancient marble painting art called ebru in Turkey. My interpretation and inspirations are people's energies. Before my client arrives I do ebru thinking about my customer's life, let my work dry and put them in an order on top of each other. Wherever I can I gift those to my clients.

(Interview by Nic Skuja for International Psychics Directory) I recently had the wonderful opportunity to catch up with the very charming Deniz Batuk, the 2016 IPA Psychic People’s Choice Award recipient. Deniz is a truly global psychic and has recently returned from engagements in Mexico and the United States of America where he presented at this year’s Burning Man Festival in Nevada. Deniz is a psychic medium based in Sydney. His business, coffeecupreadingsonline.com, offers a variety of services for people all over the world. Deniz offers face-to-face psychic medium and coffee cup readings from his premises in Newtown. He does phone readings, online readings via Skype and email, face and photo readings, as well as functions and events. Deniz has also made guest appearances on a number of TV and radio shows. Deniz started his career in Turkey and has over twenty-three years of industry experience. He specialises in Turkish coffee cup reading (tasseography) and conducts water reading (hydromancy). We had a great chat. I had a few questions about coffee reading, his time at Burning Man and what’s in store for him in 2018: What is coffee reading? It is like an alphabet; talking to me. Next time you drink your coffee in a white cup look inside after finishing it. You will notice coffee residue building shapes. Particularly if it is black Turkish style coffee. Turkish coffee cup reading is an ancient way of divination by using the shapes left by the coffee grounds in your cup. It is huge in Turkey, Greece, the Balkans including Serbia, Croatia and the whole former Yugoslavia, the Middle East, Russia and the Caucasian states like Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia etc. The aim in readings is not just talking about one-way-fate, but how you can improve your chances and find the best option in life. I lay out all good and bad options. The choice is yours in the end. How did you get started? I started when I was a child… The intuition was always there. I used to give guidance to my parents, grandparents, school friends on finance, love relationships, business deals, friendships. I thought everyone had the same ability... Why could not they see that they were about to make a mistake? As a kid it was annoying to watch people taking wrong paths. I used to guide people, this is how it grew. I began Turkish coffee cup readings in my high school years in Istanbul. It is part of my culture. I did my first coffee reading for my best friend and through word-of-mouth, it snowballed. Do you have a special process you follow? I practice shamanism, so first I empathise with my client through a drum and bell sounds and then I close my eyes to focus. Sometimes I get a vision, then I open the coffee cup and talk, talk, talk. I then answer questions about this world and beyond. Usually, the night before, I have strange dreams which I interpret for the first client of the next morning. The relevance is always there… For example, the other night I dreamt about a sad gentleman; I could see his face. The next morning my customer showed me her husband’s photo; it was him. Are there any rules? Yes, and I can be picky. Look, the client has every right to be choosy as does the psychic. I do not accept clients if they are emotionally extremely sensitive. If I believe my client will not be able to cope with what I am going to say, I would rather cancel the session. The person must be ready, willing and open-minded; otherwise, there is no point. I do prefer customers who are informed about my services beforehand, rather than someone who wishes to have a reading on impulse. I do not work that way. It is not advised for people younger than eighteen, or for clients who’ve had alcoholic drinks just beforehand as I need their full attention. What kind of symbols are you looking for when reading? Anything really. A initials of a name, a complete name, career paths, exact locations, cities, diseases, deceased people and their attributes. Shapes can come as a heart, number, tree, letter, dog, bird, house, cloud, sun, moon or mountain - nature gives so many choices. How is coffee reading different? The main difference is you taste your coffee from a cup you touch. By your sense of taste and touch you become part of it; your energy connects. Still, in the end, it is up to the psychic medium how to interpret it. Tarot, coffee, crystal - all form of readings - give accurate results if you can build a connection with your psychic medium. What do you love about what you do? Everything. As a psychic I believe in constant improvement and betterment in every single detail. Beyond my readings, I sample the best coffee from various regions, I collect antique coffee cups to make the experience something memorable. At the age of forty-five I still get excited. I feel like I’m twenty when I am about the give readings. Works better than botox for me! What are some of your favourite coffee reading memories? Out of thousands of readings I can’t possibly pick favourites. When one of my clients say hello on the street or when I receive an email from an overseas client out of the blue, I feel happy. Did you ever dream it would take you around the world? No, not at all. It all happened naturally. Do you have a favourite destination where work and your love of travel meet? I love Istanbul, Sydney, London, LA, Berlin and Paris. So far, my line of work has taken me from Istanbul to Europe, America and finally to Australia. Thanks to technology and Skype, I have clients from over thirty countries. With overseas clients, language is the key: still not everyone speaks English. As well as Turkish and English I can converse in German, and these days I am working on my Greek and French to be able to reach more people. I love languages and other cultures, so everywhere has something to offer. How was the Burning Man? This is where people stay for a week in the desert in Nevada. This year (In 2017) there were seventy thousands participants from all around the world. CEO’s, students, backpackers, businessmen, artists, young and old. What took you to Burning Man? We went as a group of four people. When I was there, I realised many people go to grieve after losing someone or a break-up and to heal and to burn their sorrow. I gifted my readings there and enjoyed this experience immensely. What were your highlights? Sitting in the main camp in the morning I gave readings one after another. I met a young American couple. After their reading the man burst into tears. He had thought he was a bad person because of the violence occurring in Afghanistan during his time there as a soldier. I had helped him overcome his guilt. Another man was suffering in his marriage because his mother-in-law had moved into his home causing a big rift. I explained his options, and he was grateful to hear there was hope to heal his union with his beloved wife. One day, a glamorous, tall transgender lady came to me. She was also Turkish, we talked in my mother tongue - far far away from Turkey. She was a beautiful soul. I remember giving advice about how she could locate the right person for her. Do you see a return to Burning Man in the near future? Certainly. Where I sat was next to the main stage and organisers noticed that something was going on there. People were waiting in a queue, talking. They invited me to the stage, gave me a microphone and asked me to give readings to the crowd. It was incredible to talk and try to help people from every corner of the planet. The organisers took my contact details and asked if I would go back next year. How was your trip to Mexico and your experience visiting the temples and sacred sites? I feel enlightened about the Mayan culture; I was curious about the Chichen Itza and Tulum pyramids. I learnt a lot about how the locals created their civilisations and lived their faiths. It was fascinating. To me the most sacred place and temple is our inner world. When I talk to my clients I get an insight about their lives which is more precious than any physical journey in this world. In Mexico, my personal highlight was Mother-Nature herself; in Tulum, observing giant Caretta caretta (loggerhead) turtles coming to the beach to lay their eggs. It was moving to see these gentle giants following the moonlight and surviving all adversities to give life. All mothers, either human or animal are incredibly precious! Where are you off to next? Egypt, Spain, Portugal and Turkey. What's in the cup for you in 2018? My vlog or a ‘video book’ I call it. Many come to me with issues related to their private lives. Over the years I have done studies in marriage and relationship counselling, shamanism, spiritual development, now my glass is full and it is time to share. This is not psychic medium reading, it just outlines the rules of a successful marriage & union. Soon, I will launch this project on my website and social media.

Who gets the most from a psychic reading? I would argue it is an optimist, someone who is relaxed, keeps hope and is prepared to get in and feel better. My coffee cup and I are mere tools to guide you through the millions of available paths. I can direct you, but it is your choice to take my advice. I believe in my client's intuition and insight. In most cases, I believe you already know the possible solutions to your problems, but hearing answers from someone else validates your inner feelings and gives you perspective. Although my speciality is traditional coffee cup readings, I use many techniques to help my clients such as reading objects, eyes and hands or connecting with spirits. Being able to see the past clearly can be more useful than looking into the future because sometimes we need to look back at critical junctures and reflect. In all cases, I aim to give my clients specific information they can relate to. For example, if I am connecting with a relative in spirit, messages bypass my conscious mind and strange statements slip out of my mouth. It is most satisfactory when a client smiles and acknowledges, ‘Oh yeah, he would have said that!’ To get the most from a reading, look for specifics. Ask questions to get more detail if you are unclear about something. Be open to seeing your journey from an outsider's viewpoint and tackle your future with optimism and hope. In the end, regardless of what a psychic or anyone else says, your destiny in in your hands! Reading Eyes & Hands: My specialty is to read eyes and the true meaning and thought in pupils, I call this process as ‘peeling the onion off layer by layer’. I read the photo of hands to understand the personality and behavioural patterns. Reading Objects: As a clairsentient I might be able to guide about a person’s fate, whereabouts, current or past feelings. This item might be any personal object such as a t-shirt or a ring, even a piece of hair. If there is nothing else and old or new photograph can be a good start point. Spirits of Relatives: Some of the people I do read are spirits, loved ones who already crossed. This stage of the mediumship activates my channelling while giving client the most important messages. Details of Physical Body: Describing the persons’ outlook is crucial so you can relate to whom I am talking about. Strange Words – Sentences: Like names, syllables in any language, or a complete sentence from a spiritual domain are very useful. Location names are a good example. Shapes or Numbers,: Anything in the form of a shape or a number, they all have a meaning. Hectic is the right word to describe the last twelve months! Thanks to your continuing trust, I have been awarded the Psychic People's Choice Award with votes coming from places I have never been - except via Skype or phone sessions- making 2016 an incredibly valuable experience for me and my cat assistant Shelby. Thank you! *The original version of this article has been published in the 2017 International Psychics Directory.

I used to be against tattoo or any symbol on the body but I have a better view now. About a month ago I got my arm permanently inked. My middle name is Suleyman or Solomon, a name a share with my grandfather and also the King Solomon whose gift was to talk to animals. Another connection was the Suleymaniye Mosque of Istanbul, a magnificent yet humble architecture and design of its own. One day looking at the dome decorations I saw the patterns of my future tattoo. Why not? We all change, so are our take on life. In order to change though first we need something to inspire us, but what? How to motivate yourself? First, you can try by thinking about what you want to do. If you want to work, then so be it. If you want to study, then it is your choice. No matter what the choice you take about what you want, it has to be a good thing based on your values. The second step you can do after you have made the choice about what you want to do is to measure how hard it is for you to perform the tasks that will come in the path you have chosen. It is true that when there is a will there will be a way. However, there is also a limit to everything, including your capabilities. So, if you think that the tasks on your path will be very hard for you to overcome, then it will be okay for you to give up the path or switch side. The third step you can do about how to motivate yourself is to think about for whom you do and step in the path you have chosen. In this case, the most common choice is for the ones who love the most, such as your parents, your siblings, your lover or yourself. The fourth or the last step on how to motivate yourself is to think about why you do this. In answering the “why” question I bet you will find your true self and your true motivation.

We humans are social creatures. In addition to getting the right course, we also have an obligation. Often, we feel our rights are ignored or feel that our arguments are the most correct. If so, then you should need to fix that act because it could be that you are having a crisis of personality in you. Ego is a picture of the personality or the concept of reality and desire within. When the ego is directly proportional to the reality, of course it is considered as a natural thing. However, the real case is if the ego is so dominant and so destructive to the general agreement on the concept of truth. If the ego is left unchecked, a person who could not beat his ego and has a tendency to be apathetic and arrogant, so that it will affect his social life or, in other words, that person will withdraw from social life. A logical consequence when you are strong enough in defeating the ego in yourself is being ostracized by the community. Of course, it is something that does not want to be experienced by anyone. Therefore, it is good to begin to fix it by getting to know your identity. Someone will be able to get to know himself better than anyone, so he will understand what is needed and what is not. Thus, in practice he will be able to refrain from doing things that are not necessary. So, what you can do to avoid conflicts that can occur with the people around you is by defeating the ego in yourself. However, note that the ego is not easy to beat. First of all, one must be able to know his position in the society or in the surrounding environment. When you know that you are only a small part of the community, then you will be able to begin to accept the existence of others and lower your ego. Secondly, you should be able to know who you are. This may sound easy, but in reality it is very difficult. Most people feel that they already know who they are, but in fact they only know the outside of themselves or arguably only their physical bodies. This is quite natural because the ones can know us are only ourselves. However, it turns out that the understanding is not accompanied by a determination in finding who we really are. To know who you are, then you can try to explore a wide range of understandings about human creation. If you already find and understand who you are, then you will be much closer to defeating the ego in yourself completely. If it had been up to that point, it will not be difficult for you to be able to socialize in any society. By doing so, a good social life that is coveted by all people can be realized. That is the eternal benefit of being able to defeat your ego.

Smile is a body language which is interpreted as an expression of happiness. Smiling is very easy to do, but often because of busy awork and endless routines, it makes us forget the joy we can feel from this activity. We do not realize how great the power of a smile is. In fact, even with the diversity of language, culture, ethnicity, and religion around the world, smiling still means the same. There are so many good effects that we can feel when we often smile because a smile will greatly affect our lives, whether they are in psychology, health, and social life. Unwittingly, with a smile we will be happier even if our body conditions are not good though. That's because when we smile, our brain releases a hormone called endorphins. This hormone will make someone feel calm and happy. This hormone gives morphine-like effects. In fact, the effect is 200 times greater than morphine. Unconsciously, the power of smiling gives great benefits to our bodies. Someone who often smiles has an immune system that is better than those who rarely smile. Smiles also keep us from excessive stress. Medically, smile is also able to control our blood pressure. By emphasizing on a smile, we will be able to reduce the risk of high blood pressure. From centuries ago, the power of smiling has been known as a natural youthful drug. To smile, we need only thirteen facial muscles. The facial muscles will lift your face to look younger. In addition to providing benefits for your own self, the power of the smile may also provide benefits for others. When we smile and others also smile, then it implies that we have to transmit the benefits of a smile to the others. The amount of the force from a smile can surely be felt when we meet with new people or when we are during an interview. Smiling will bring a positive aura, give you confidence, and give a good and friendly impression. Obviously, it would be a plus for those of you who will be applying for a job. For women, a smile is very important, in addition to improving self-confidence, a smile will make them look more beautiful. The power of smiling can be very helpful when we use it at the right time. Smiling facilitates us to interact with each person and also a mainstay for breaking the ice. Smile is also a form of appreciation of someone to another person. In fact, some jobs require every employee to always smile, such as customer service, bank security, or a tradesman. Smiling is also believed to bring fortune. Of course it is very reasonable. As a prospective buyer, we would choose a salesgirl who likes to smile than the one who doesn’t like to smile. With all the benefits of smiling, of course it would not hurt if we multiply our smiles. No matter how hard the trials of life, we have to keep smiling because a smile is a source of strength to face every problem of life.

Listening is not necessarily a quality, as it is a virtue. Not many people know that listening can solve a lot of issues, and can act as a treatment for the many situations in which we are upset, stressed or disappointed. In many cases, we don’t look for solutions or answers to our problems, but more a person to whom we can tell about them, who is willing enough to listen to us. So yes, just listening, being a good listener, can mean a lot, for your friends, spouse, family member, even colleague. Thus, next time you will think that it is a waste of time to listen what someone close to you has to say, even if they are mere complaints, think again. If you know you are not a good listener, you should be aware that there are ways to improve this virtue and become an appreciated person. Good listeners are also good husbands and wives, good parents or family members, good colleagues and, more importantly, good leaders. Yes, even a manager, or someone aspiring to a leadership position, must know how to listen to others. The first thing a good listener does is to pay attention to the person that is talking to them, and won’t finger their mobile phones, won’t look at other people passing by, watch TV or do other activities. So one thing you can do, if you want to become a good listener, is to turn off or put away anything that might distract you. For a couple of moments, you will have to dedicate your attention to the person that is in front of you speaking. Also, good listeners won’t only pay attention to the words that person is saying, but also will watch the tone of his or her voice, and that person’s body language. The way they behave during a conversation will help you understand better through what they are going through and the way they feel. So when you are actually listening to someone, you don’t just stand there and pretend to be listening, but do your best to understand the person that is talking to you. Another thing you can do is to show interest in the conversation, sympathize and empathize with the person you are listening to. You don’t have to be talking to express these things, as you can do it through short words or body language. Nodding your head, learning towards the person, smiling or showing your concern, a pat on the shoulder or encouragement words can count a lot, showing that you do listen. A good listener will never interrupt the conversation, or try to chance the subject. It is something rude, and it shows no interest in what the other person is attempting to communicate. Follow the conversation and see when it is appropriate to intervene with what you have to say. Also, always think before giving your answer our opinion, and don’t just throw some words out. And do have in mind that sometimes silence is the best answer, so don’t rush into offering an opinion since it may not be necessary. You are just a good listener so that listening can be more than enough in some instances.

Having a friend may be the best thing one can have, besides family. A real friend will always accept you for who you are, regardless if you are successful or not, will offer support and a shoulder to cry on, when you need one, and will be happy for your every achievement. But how can you be a good friend? Well, also respecting the previously mentioned aspects and a bit more. To be a good friend, you should try to befriend persons that have a similar vision of life, the same passions and approximately the same way of thinking. You should resonate on the same wavelength if you want your friendship to last in time. Otherwise, no matter how hard you try, you will never be a good friend because spending time with a person that doesn’t share your thoughts and opinions will not be pleasant. It is important to know that a good friend will always be there when someone close to you needs help. Having a trustworthy friend can be a great thing, especially when you need help or just some encouragement words. You know that you can call that person regardless of the time, at day or night, because you know he or she will do everything in their power to come to your aid. So have this in mind if you want to be a good friend. Friendship is about giving and sharing, not only receiving, so make sure to return these services when your dear friend requires them. After all, this is what friends are for, and if you want to be a reliable and appreciated friend, you should keep them in mind. Of course, be careful not to be used, as some persons will try to take advantage of you, relying on your kindness and desire to be a good friend. Such persons cannot be called a real friend, and as soon as you feel used, not receiving the same attention in return when you ask for it, you should set some space and limits between you and these persons. Unfortunately, real friends are rather scarce these days, so choose your friends well, and be a good friend only to those who proven worthy of your attention and effort. These are the persons that will offer unlimited support, even in the moments in which others consider you crazy. So you see, being a great friend means respecting the person near you, being there for him or her in moments of hardship and happiness as well, offering a helping hand and just being present in any moment of your friend’s life. When the friendship between you and someone is real, none of these previously mentioned aspects will not seem hard or a burden. All of them will come natural, out of the desire to help a person you know it deserves only the best because that person will never hesitate to do the same for you. Real friendships will last in time and space, no matter how many years pass and how far away life sets you and your friend apart. A good friend will never forget, regardless what life brings to any of you.

The subject of reincarnation is an intricate one, representing a mere fairy tale for some while it is real belief for others. Still, it is said that each myth must have a seed of truth from which it all started. So what made mankind believe in such a thing. If the man fears of something, it may be God and death. Death represents such a gruesome aspect, mostly because no one came back from there to tell us all how it is. Thus, it may not necessarily be a fear of death, but more of the unknown. So having a concept describing that life is not over when you die, that you will come back in another form, can be rather comforting. Reincarnation is a part of Hinduism and Buddhism, these religions believing in the passing of the soul from one body to another. Of course, there are modern religions as well, like Spiritism and Theosophy, which believe the same thing. Still, even if Buddhism talks about reincarnation, they do not speak of the presence of a soul, or spirit, but more of a consciousness, which passes from one life to another. If we are to take the scientific part of reincarnation, science does talk about the fact that in nature, energy is not lost, but reused. Thus, when someone or something dies, the energy of the body is taken, becoming a part of something else and other processes. Let’s take an animal that dies and decays on the forest floor. Slowly, it will be reabsorbed by the ground, taken from there by roots of the plants, which will grow and produce leaves and fruits, which have seeds, and the story will keep on going in the same manner. Now, there is the question, do you believe in reincarnation? If you are not a Hindu or Buddhism, it is less likely to believe such things exist, although the subject does stir your interest. After all, there are those extremely weird deja-vu moments, in which you have the impression that you were in that place before, doing the same thing. How can you explain those? When having those deja-vu events, does it meant that we receive a second chance in living our lives, to repair some mistakes we did in the past one? These are questions that lie without answers for the moment, although there are many unexplained phenomena regarding life after death, the energy that leaves a body after death and many other aspects that can hardly be explained by science. The truth is probably someone in the middle. It is somewhat hard to believe that such a perfectly constructed body, which can sustain itself by transforming food into energy, for the continuity of its internal processes, just stops working at a point. Also, scientists discovered that even after death, and even if the head is separated from the body, for a few seconds, the brain still functions, as energy still lies within its connections. Maybe this energy does manage to manifest itself in some way after our body becomes non-functional. But this is a different story.

Believe it or not, being a good partner in any social relationship follows the same recipe. Of course, details are the ones that set one relationship apart from another, but there are a few primary values that must be respected if you want to be a trustworthy and appreciated partner in a relationship. So whether it is a love relationship, business relationship, or a friendship one, they all value the same qualities. The most important of them all is communication. You can't have any relationship without proper communication. The rest are respect, diplomacy and understanding. The small details foreseen the existence of romantic feelings, business interests or an excellent collaboration, which will make the difference between the types of relationships a person can have. So, as you may have noticed, communication is key in any relationship you are involved in. It is true that in the case of a romantic relationship, feelings, emotions and love come forward and exceed in importance communication. Well, it is a wrongful approach, because if the partners involved in such a relationship won’t notice that they need to communicate, and in a good manner also, their connection will not last too long. Do you know why couples end up in therapy? Because they have communication issues. This is what does all the wrong in a relationship, and that is the fact that one fails to communicate, whether the news is good or bad. It is futile to say that communication is the core of a business relationship, and any other social relationship. Humans are creatures that were designed to communicate, and we developed this skill rather well. Still, there are courses that can teach your how to do this better, and improve your business relationships and collaboration with your partners. We also talked about the importance of diplomacy, respect and understanding. They all play a part in maintaining a relationship healthy. With the help of diplomacy, you will find a way to discuss with your partner even the most delicate or bothering aspects, without hurting or offending him or her. If you don’t have this skill, it would be wise to start working on it, because it is also needed in any relationship. Respect will help you acknowledge the qualities and opinions of your partner, even if they will not always match yours. Still, you will have to respect yourself first, if you want to be respected by others. And do make the difference between respecting someone and being their servant, just because you think it is rude to say “no”. Understanding may come hand in hand with listening to your partner because otherwise it would be very hard to know what they are trying to communicate. You see, words are not the only way of communication between two people, body languages, gestures, states, they all can say a bit of what the other is trying to transmit. Paying attention to what your partner is saying, as well as his behavior and mood, will help you understand better what he or she is trying to transmit.

You may think that a coffee cup reading is basic. Someone looks in the coffee ground sediment at the bottom of the cup and tells you what they see. It’s not that easy. You will quickly learn that there are nuances about the coffee cup reading that happens from one country to another. The readings occur in many countries, particularly in Turkey, Romania, and Middle Eastern countries. In the Turkish tradition, the coffee reader will interpret the cup in horizontal halves. The bottom half is viewed as the past while the top half is seen as the future. In some Middle Eastern countries, the right represents positive events while the left represents negative. In Romania, the mug is to be swirled around until the sediment is able to cover most of the inside surface of the coffee mug. However, in some Middle Eastern countries, it is not to be swirled around. Instead, the cup is turned towards the person who is seeking the answers. There are other countries or even regions that require the saucer to be placed over the mug and then shaken, or even turned three times. There is also the part of the coffee cup reading that involves the person seeking answers (known as the querent) to open their heart. Some readers will ask the person to do this before even drinking the coffee. Others will ask their right thumb to be placed in the bottom of the mug as a way of smearing the sediment and putting their personal thoughts and emotions into the mug to make for a more customized reading. In Turkey, it also involves looking for various signs and symbols. The Turkish also believe that a person should never try to interpret their own cup. It is also believed that the telling should always start from the cup’s handle and this will vary based upon whether a person is right handed or left handed. In Romania, a person is asked to be a part of the coffee making process, which includes spooning the froth from the top onto the coffee cup. The coffee grounds should also be drained so that it is not too wet, and this process alone can take up to few minutes. There are a lot of nuances that you can encounter when getting a coffee cup reading in one country versus another. When you want to have a psychic reading, Deniz is available to provide you with a coffee cup reading that can prove to be very enlightening. It can be fascinating to see how the different countries read a coffee cup. It can always mean different things and it can also change based upon the country you are in.

The meaning of common coffee ground shapes is impacted by the method used to display the grounds. Most practitioners prefer using Turkish coffee because the methods of divination have been practiced in Turkey for the longest time. Turkish coffees produce more sediment and are therefore a better prognosticative tool that provides more information. You need a skilled and practiced reader to interpret the message that the grounds have for you. The top of the cup contains messages concerning your future and the bottom of the cup reveals the past. The left of the cup can mean no to a direct question or indicate a negative outcome. The right side of the cup means yes to a question or indicates a positive outcome. Some of the more common coffee ground shapes include the following with one interpretation. The entire interpretation depends on reading all that the grounds and cup have to offer. Any wild animal shape is an indication of ambition. The key to the shape is a wild animal and not a farm animal, a pet, or a domestic animal. Spiders indicate the receipt of unexpected money or income. Owls are a harbinger of scandal. An eagle means that great improvements are in store for you. A dolphin means good news is on your way. A bird means news is coming to you. A bear can mean you are about to take a journey or face a difficult trial. Domestic animals also have special meanings. A dog means that you can rely on friends to help you in a difficulty. A cat means a quarrel is brewing that will be short lived. Your noble nature or the noble nature of another person that enters your life is inferred by a horse. Common household objects have a great significance and definite meaning in coffee grounds. A chair means that you will entertain an unexpected guest. A candle indicates that you will receive help in an enterprise from a friend or relative. A chain can be an indication of an impending marriage or the formation of a mutually beneficial business partnership. An earring implies that great care must be used in finding an explanation to your inquiry. Keys mean you may have to move. A knife is an indication of danger. Common plants take on special meanings in coffee grounds. Beans indicate you will have difficulties in finance. Clover implies affection either coming your way or being given to another. Love is indicated by the shape of a daisy. Any type of fruit indicates that your endeavors will be prosperous. A pear has the special benefit of a secure financial future. Trees mean that changes for the better are coming your way. These are just a few of the multitude of meanings and insights that coffee ground shapes can give to you provided the shape is interpreted by a skilled and dedicated practitioner of the art of coffee ground reading.

Scrying is a means of divining the future that is as old as the ancient Persian Empire and probably very much older. Scrying can be done with many types of objects and you have probably experienced the method by staring at any object while consciously trying not thinking about anything. The most ancient scrying tools are fire, smoke, and water. More modern scrying objects include crystal balls, mirrors, and any stone, glass, or mineral that is translucent and or luminescent. Scrying is a learned skill. Some people are born with a natural ability to scry that is innate but the skill for divining the past, gaining insights into the future, and obtaining direction for the present are possible for anyone that practices. Scrying is a very personal thing and the best known practitioners of the art recommend that a person practice alone and does not reveal the answers that they receive from their insights. The fundamental concept of scrying is the minimization of the self in an effort to receive spiritual and psychic guidance from the universal whole. The answers to your questions about the future are delivered through your subconscious mind. You must accept the fact that all things are already known to the universe and that your future can be revealed if you are willing to accept that fact and practice scrying. You will need a quiet place to scry. You must seek to eliminate all distractions from outside and from within in order to receive revelations about the future. The results of scrying to foretell the future is independent of the object used to scry, the color of the object, or the shape of the object. The object is not doing anything. The object is your point of focus that helps you minimize the influences of the physical world, your own thoughts and emotions, and allows you to make a connection with the psychic whole of the universe. You are attempting to reach a deep meditative state and the object that you concentrate on is simply a focal point to reach that state. As you progress you will notice a release of physical tension in all of your body and your mind as you let go of physical concerns and become involved with the directions that the universe has for you. With practice you will begin to see impressions of objects in the scrying tool that you are concentrating on. These images and impression are the directions for your future that the universe is trying to give you. The images may be confusing and strange when you first begin scrying. The majority of people that receive insight for the future through scrying keep a journal of their visions during each scrying session. Review of the journal when you are not scrying will reveal a pattern that is the direction the universe has for your future.

You have likely heard about coffee cup readings. While you can always book a reading with a fortune teller, there are plenty of people who say that you can do the reading on your own by learning how to interpret some of the designs that are left in the coffee cup after you have drank the coffee. The first thing you have to do is get a cup of coffee. Not any coffee is going to work. It has to be Turkish or some other kind that will leave sediment at the bottom. While you want to drink most of the coffee in the mug, be sure some of the sediment resides at the bottom when you’re done. Some people say to swirl the mug when you have consumed the coffee while others say to cover the mug with the saucer and shake or turn three times. Either way, it allows the grounds to be moved around the bottom of the mug a little bit to provide better coverage. This can make it easier to read because there will simply be more designs and therefore can be more telling as to what’s going on. Have a few ideas as to what you want to know before you even begin drinking. This is said to have a better impact on being able to answer your questions. Continue to think about what you want to know as you finish the coffee. You can then answer your questions by asking into the mug and looking for the answers. Hold the mug and visually split it down the middle. You can look at the right side as positive and answer questions with a “yes”. The left side is the negative side and answers questions with a “no”. There are various books and websites that can help you to interpret some of the shapes and overall designs that are left in the mug as well. If you want to put your emotions and thoughts into the reading, it’s also a good idea to take your right thumb towards the bottom of the mug and then move it in a clockwise position. This is going to upset the sediment and put a new design – one that has your emotions and personality in it. This can allow for a deeper reading because it is now even more personalized for you. You can always choose to read the coffee mug on your own, though it does go against some traditions. If you want to know more about how to read the mug or you want to have a professional fortune teller do it for you, psychic readings by Deniz can be set up. This will allow you to ask questions and receive in-depth information about your life, your future, and more.

The history of coffee cup reading is long and dates back centuries. It is also known as tasseography, which is a form of fortune telling that interprets the patterns that are left by the coffee grounds. It has been found all the way back do the medieval times, when European fortune tellers would develop readings from lead, wax, and splatters from other molten substances. This type of reading evolved into the tea and coffee reading of the 17th century. Once Dutch merchants began introducing tea and coffee into Europe, the fortune tellers began to use the coffee cup reading as a way of being able to tell people more about themselves, and often be able to predict the future as well. Coffee cup reading is particularly found throughout Greece, Serbia, and Turkey. Turkish coffee is the most commonly used coffee, but it can involve any other coffee where grounds are left at the bottom of the cup. A person is asked to consume most of the coffee, but sediment is left to settle. It is also suggested that a person do not read their own cup, but I do sometimes. There are ways to look at the coffee cup in vertical and horizontal halves. The vertical interpretations are able to answer “yes” and “no” questions. Anything on the left half has been considered negative while anything on the right is positive. Romanian methods require sediment to be swirled until it covers most of the surface on the inside of the cup while Turkish and Middle Eastern traditions don’t want many times of the swirling, but they do require the cup to be turned upside down. The querent or person who is seeking the reading, is sometimes asked to place their right thumb in the bottom of the cup and then twist clockwise. This is done to leave an impression that has the ability to contain inner thoughts and emotions. There have been instances throughout history where someone who has been involved with coffee cup reading was charged of magic or witchcraft. The most recent was in 2007, where a fortune teller in Israel was charged with practicing magic, but the person was acquitted because the government found it too hard to prove. While coffee cup reading is just one of the forms of tasseography, it has been in practice for the longest. Wine and tea are other forms, though they don’t date back quite as far back as the coffee grounds in the cup. As for the correct form of reading, it depends on ethnic tradition. You may be surprised to learn how coffee cup reading can have an impact on your life. Coffee cup readings by Psychic Deniz can enlighten you. The specific information from your cup and saucer can answer a lot of questions.

Each and every human being has the ability to tune into their own psychic intuition. It is normal for an individual to overlook or even ignore the spiritual link or inner visions that they are capable of accessing within themselves. Lack of understanding or fear and doubt can cloud the mind and conceal the knowledge that is there waiting to be discovered. With the right tools anyone can access their inner psychic. Many beginners rely on code and number systems, as they seem the easiest to follow. Contrary to popular belief, most psychic messages do not manifest in spoken language but rather numerical data stored in the mind. The key is to tap into that data and translate it into usable and accurate information. There are many different numerical systems that can be applied to the inner guidance that exists in everyone, though some are more advanced or non-effective. The best system to begin with is one that relies on the natural numbers, that is 1-64, as well as binary numbers 2 to the zeroth and 2 to the 6th power. Numeric systems are the easiest way to interpret the messages your psychic mind is receiving, primarily because numbers are the key to the organization of the universe we exist in. Perhaps the most important element of being your own psychic is the depth of your need and receptiveness. The mind must be open to the spiritual truth that psychic abilities are born with us, every single one of us, and we are able to access them with the right knowledge. When you are ready to begin your own psychic reading there are a few tips to help you succeed. First, be mindful of your environment. Choose a space that is calm, quiet, and promotes a feeling of comfort and relaxation. Quiet your thoughts and focus only on your question. It is best to focus on one thing at a time, and avoid straying off of topic. If you are unable to quiet your thoughts, relax, and focus, then you need to attend to whatever it is that might be distracting you. Without a quiet mind you will not see success. Once you are comfortably in your inner space and your focus is on your question, allow your mind to shift to numbers. Think of only two numbers between 1-64, the natural number, and try to visualize them, allow them to form on their own, let them take shape and become solid, clear numbers behind your closed eyelids. Once you have your numbers, or even the same number twice, you are ready to begin interpretation of your reading. This is a bit more in-depth. You will need to learn a bit about I Ching Oracle readings. Alternatively, you can plug the numbers into an interpretation program. However, you may not need and aid in interpretation, you may find that your ability goes beyond simply receiving information from the spiritual universe, perhaps you can also interpret it naturally, with no guidance needed? Such a discovery may come as a surprise but a welcome one no doubt!

If there's anything that many of us are familiar with, it’s that feeling of longing a person has when they realize that they are not fully happy or fulfilled at their place of work. So how does one stay happy when they are at a challenging workplace? Read on to learn more. Leave Personal Problems At Home We've all had that one co-worker who just couldn't keep themselves from talking about outside gossip, or their cheating spouse, or their family problems. While we all need someone to vent to every once in a while, it is best to find that person outside of the workplace. Leave personal problems at home and use your work hours wisely. Make Your Place Of Work More Like Home No, you can't bring your favorite set of pajamas or your trusty alarm clock. But bear in mind that you will be spending more time at work than you will at home or in your bed. Spruce up your work area and make it feel more like a sanctuary. This gives you a safe place to hideaway from work related stress factors. Find A Group Of Like-Minded Individuals Allowing too much of your social life to bleed over into your work can be problematic. When your workplace becomes challenging, it is best to find a group of colleagues who are in your same age group, share your interests and can serve as a sounding board to voice your thoughts and feelings. Carve Out Time To Move Around A lot of modern workplaces lend themselves to a sedentary lifestyle, which is why it is important to carve out periods of time each day when you are able to get up and move about. Instead of spending your lunch break hunkered over a desk, go out and take a walk. The vitamin D that the sun provides is great for your physical and mental health. Accept What You Cannot Change Chances are high that you will not be able to change the things about your job that you do not like, especially the mentalities of your coworkers. The only thing that you have the ability to change about your challenging workplace is the manner in which you choose to react to it. Treat Yourself This reward should involve something outside of your job. When your superiors do not recognize your hard work and your efforts, take to treat yourself to a nice dinner, a night on the town, a manicure, anything that makes you feel appreciated. Focus On The Future Whether the workplace is challenging because you do not envision a future for yourself at the company or it is challenging because of more complex factors, focus on what the future holds and make a feasible plan for yourself. If you want out, think about ways to make this fantasy a reality. If you want more out of your job, take the time to thoughtfully consider your approach to obtaining it.

As humans, we often struggle to truly enjoy the moment we are living in and our minds tend to drift toward the future on a frequent basis. This is a personal choice that we make and we often make it without even knowing it. While people will ask me questions like "Psychic Deniz, what does my future hold?" and "Will my dreams ever come true?", the key to answering these questions is to merely live in the moment. Even the best plans, those that are well thought out and consider all of the possibilities are not infallible. Changes happen and they happen fast. As such, it makes little to no sense to worry about a future that you cannot possibly predict. Not only is it impossible to tell your own future, but repeatedly attempting to do only serves to diminish your enjoyment of the present. Each day presents its own challenges and opportunities to become an even better version of yourself. Spending precious minutes, hours, days and weeks worrying about the future may seem like an intelligent choice. However, all you are doing is costing yourself chances to improve as a person while you wait for the future to arrive. The future is going to happen, regardless of how well you plan for it. The best thing you can do is maximize your present and work on bettering yourself. That way, when the future finally does come to fruition, you are ready for any problems and issues that the universe should decide to throw your way (and trust me, it will). So get the most enjoyment possible out of each and every moment you live in. There are few things worse than looking back on the past and realizing that you did not soak up all the wisdom and joy that was available to you. Worrying about the future does very little to prepare you for what's ahead, but it can definitely keep you from enjoying what is taking place right now. So live in the moment and enjoy life for what it is right now, as opposed to obsessively worrying about the future. Now make the right choices when the chance is there and seize the moment you are in leaving the future where it belongs!

There have always been benefits to drinking coffee. For anyone who is not a morning person, coffee is the way of coming to life and feeling like one’s self again. I am Deniz, a psychic in Newtown Sydney. I wanted to discuss some of the other benefits to coffee and how it can have a positive effect on your skin and your mind. Coffee & Your Skin Coffee is packed with antioxidants and this is good news for your skin. It can help to balance out the pH levels so that you are less likely to break out. You may even notice skin problems such as acne or dry skin clear up after drinking coffee. Even the coffee grounds can be used on the outside. There are various soap bars that use coffee grounds and beans to act as a great way to exfoliate. You can scrub the dry and dead skin cells off, promoting new growth and leaving your skin looking smoother and healthier. Drinking the coffee can also help you to fight wrinkles. This means you can take advantage of the anti-ageing elements that are found within your favourite coffee, Turkish or otherwise. Coffee &The Mind It should come as no surprise, but coffee has the ability to boost your energy level. There is a strong stimulant found in coffee and it helps to provide physical and mental energy. There is dopamine inside coffee and this increases your heart rate, allowing you to perform hard-core workouts. If you drink coffee, it can improve mental logic, attention spans, and even intelligence. Coffee also has the ability to rid your life of depression. If you have a stressful lifestyle as a parent, a student, or a working professional, coffee is your instant anti-depressant. Coffee can also help to protect you against Alzheimer’s by as much as 55 or 65%. This means if you have been searching for a reason not to have a cup of coffee in the mornings, the afternoons, or any other time, it’s actually better to drink it. Just be sure you drink the coffee in moderation. You certainly don’t want to overdose on the amount of caffeine and stimulation inside the coffee. Whether you drink coffee or not, it can have a profound effect on your life. Let me have you drink a cup of coffee and as the coffee nurtures your skin and mind, I can read the shapes and patterns of the coffee grounds in the cup to see what else is going on in your life. The insight and guidance may be just what you have needed to feel at peace in the world or receive the answers you have been searching for.

If you are familiar with the teachings of Psychic Deniz, then you are probably well aware of the fact that pain allows us to experience spiritual and emotional growth. Remaining in the same place for a long period of time goes much deeper than your geographic location, it also has a lot to do with your emotional and spiritual mindset. Experiencing pain is the only surefire way to make progress from both of the aforementioned standpoints. Pain is a much greater learning experience than happiness ever could be. For example, let's say you have met a great significant other. The relationship is going well and you are beginning to imagine a future spent alongside of this person. Now let's say that they betray you, break your heart and your trust and the relationship ends. The resulting pain helps you to grow far more than the relationship ever would have. This is also true for close friendships that end up falling by the wayside and familial relationships that we drift away from as we get older. Pain forces us to dig deep, to confront things about ourselves that we don't like. Pain forces us to look at our deepest insecurities and devise methods for overcoming them. There is a reason why some people are reticent to get too close to others and while each individual reason will vary, their reticence is often rooted in the lessons that they learned during a period of pain fueled spiritual and emotional growth. If we don't experience pain and suffering, then we continue to assume that our way of life is perfect. Pain teaches us how to recognize our own faults, while also helping us to notice the effects of our actions on others. A person who has never experienced pain is often inherently selfish. This is not because they are a lesser person. Far from it. Selfishness stems from a lack of emotional and spiritual knowledge. It has been said that suffering is a physical representation of the gap that exists between our self-image and what we actually are. The best way to bridge this gap is to go through a painful experience and give it a chance to help us grow and mature. We become more cognizant of our surroundings and pain also keeps us attuned to signs of suffering in our fellow man. Unless we have gone through our own pain, it can be difficult to develop the emotional maturity that we need to become a better friend and neighbor to the people around us. No one wants to go through a painful experience. But there is a way to make these hard times work in your favor. By embracing the pain and its capacity to serve a catalyst for spiritual and emotional growth, we can turn these difficult scenarios into learning experiences, as opposed to extended periods of sadness.

Negative people and situations are an unfortunate byproduct of life on the planet Earth. No matter how hard we try, negative people and situations seem to find us. However, this does not have to become your reality. It is easier to avoid negative people and situations than you may have been led to believe. This is the part where someone will mention the fact that you cannot avoid negative people who you work with or family members that you remain close to. There are some people who simply cannot be avoided, from a physical standpoint. But there are ways to avoid their negativity and keep yourself in a positive mental space. There is no good that can come from complaining about the negativity behind closed doors. You must address their negativity in a direct fashion. Don't use judgmental language or speak in harsh tones. Instead, outline your concerns about their behavior and speak to them in a manner that demonstrates you care for their well-being. In many instances, the person may not even be aware of how they come across to the outside world. The person may be suffering from a mental illness or a severe personal issue. You taking a moment to speak to them honestly and openly can make a huge difference. There are also people who you may not be able to avoid, but that you only see every once in a while. In this case, you can maintain a friendly distance from them, without being forced into any sort of negative situations. In these cases, it is best to keep conversations light and avoid divulging any more information than is truly necessary. It can be tough to identify the source of negativity, but if you are struggling to do so, bear one important factor in mind: if the person or the situation does not make you feel good and depletes all of the positive energy you have built up, they must be avoided as much as possible. Make friends with those who are positive and enthusiastic and remember that positive attitudes are just as contagious as negative ones. It is also crucial for people to alter their own thought patterns, so that they can avoid drawing negative thoughts into their sphere of influence. Keep fear out of your thought process, as well, since fear is often at the nucleus of most negative thoughts and situations. While most know how to identify negative people and situations, there are many who are unclear on how to avoid them. Even when life places you in the midst of those with negative attitudes, remain focused on your own positive vibes and leave the people who live to wallow in negativity to their own devices.

There are many instances throughout our daily walk of life when we will encounter stress. Stress can come from the workplace. An example of this would be a deadline for a project to be completed. The well-being of our family members can be a source of stress as well. What if your children become sick of some illness that requires constant care and supervision? Suppose your grandmother falls ill and the family cannot afford to pay for her hospital care. Maintaining a source of income and caring for those that you love can be a very real source of stress. But how can you deal with the stress of daily life? I will now discuss tried and true methods for dealing with stress. In my field as a psychic medium, I use the Turkish coffee as a tool for finding information about my clients. Once the client drinks most of their coffee, the cup is covered with the saucer that held it and the remaining coffee is then swirled three times. It is at this point that it is allowed to sit and settle. I bring this up because sitting and settling is a great way for an individual to alleviate stress much in the same way it allows me to give a client a coffee reading. Many cultures refer to this as meditation. This isn't something that requires a large amount of time. In fact, it can take no more than 5 minutes. A place in your residence where you will not be disturbed for this short amount of time is required. A bathroom will work wonders. The idea here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Close your eyes and visualize the following. You are carrying a large trash bag, and a dumpster is within sight. This large bag is full of the things that are keeping you from finding solutions for the culprits that cause stress in your life. Visualize yourself tossing this bag into that dumpster. As the coffee must settle in order for me to give a proper reading, you must settle your mind before you can have proper insight into yourself. Exercising as little as three times a week and for no more than 10 minutes at a time is also a great way of dealing with stress. In this modern world, we spend a fair amount of our time driving to and from locations. At times, we do this when are destinations are no more than a mile or even less from us. I want you to think back to the last time you went for a drive. Did you see individuals walking on the side of the road? Think back to times you have seen a person or persons riding a bike along the side of the road. At the time, you may not have given it much thought, but walking and cycling are perfect forms of exercise that can help you deal with stress. Exercising gives a person a better admiration for themselves and provides them with better health, which are two things that stress can rob a person. There is never a reason to feel as if you have no tools available to help you deal with stress. You are in control of any stressful situation. And there are solutions to help you manage it as well as find solutions.

Most of us agree that positive thinking is essential to a person’s well-being, but how do we stay positive? Unfortunately, there is no positive pixie dust we can use to magically transform the negative nannies of the world. No magic wand exists for us to wave over the consistently cynical people we encounter every day. There is only personal choice, a personal choice to want better and to be better in every situation. There is always a choice, and the choice is key. Simply trying not to be frustrated or not to have a bad attitude is just not enough. Counting to ten or going to a happy place is a good start but to successfully stay positive a choice must be recognized, and a strategy engaged. Every minute of every day, every single situation commands a choice. By making a conscious choice to look at the bright side of each situation in the beginning of your journey, you can train your brain to think positively. There is science behind this practice. You will also create good Karma for yourself and those around you. Certain scientists study how our brains can rewire themselves, so to say, when properly trained to think positively. Before you know it, your conscious choice to be positive not only becomes your reality, but it also becomes second nature. What if you have a flat tire on your way home? If you get upset, and curse, and kick the car, you accomplish nothing. You will only become more frustrated and stressed out. This is not physically or mentally healthy, and you will still have a flat tire. However, you can choose to think positively. Perhaps this flat tire is keeping you from a horrible accident further down the road. Perhaps you were meant to cross paths with the person who helps you, maybe even for your benefit. You could also choose to remain grateful that you have a car when two-thirds of the world’s population does not. My point is this. Positive thinking is a choice, even a journey into new territory for some. At least, it starts out that way, and every once in a while we all need a friendly reminder. Do whatever it takes to choose to be positive each day and in each situation. After a short amount of time, it will become habitual. At the end of thirty days you will be happier, healthier, and less stressed. Your brain will retrain itself to think positive so that you can reap all of the physical, mental, and emotional benefits.

Sandalwood and Ylang Ylang essential oils can be of tremendous benefit to anyone who uses them. They can be used in conjunction with one another for even more results. I have seen them used for many daily situations and they do help to solve problems that cannot be handled in normal medical scenarios. Sandalwood Oil has been used as incense, perfume, spiritual applications in ancient times and other things as well. Sandalwood Oil is known to have a calming effect and can instill an inner peace. If you are having stress or depression and low self-esteem it would be a good oil for you to try. One of the benefits of Sandalwood Oil is that it is also considered to be an aphrodisiac as well. If you use this oil along with Ylang (also considered to be an aphrodisiac) you may get some surprising results. Ylang Ylang is sort of a miracle oil. It can help with many problems and can be used with other oils as well. It can be used to combat many ailments as mentioned with Sandalwood Oil. It can relax both your body and your soul. It can help you if you have just had an accident or are dealing with a nervous breakdown. Ylang Ylang will help with depression as it will help you deal with anxiety, chronic stress and anxiety. Ylang Ylang may also be used as an aphrodisiac as mentioned before. It can help for those who have lost interest in sex due to the many pressures of modern daily living. It is better for the human body to use natural essential oils such as Ylang over modern day chemical medicines. This oil may also used as an antiseptic. It helps by disinfecting and inhibiting microbial growth. It will also help enhance the healing of the wound. It can also help with those who have insomnia, frigidity, and stress related conditions. It will also keep ones skin smooth, hydrated and younger looking. Another of the benefits of Ylang Ylang Oil is that it is also a great natural sedative. It will calm anger, nervous conditions, and stress and anxiety. It will as well help to lower blood pressure. As with most natural oils it will not have the same ill side effects that you will get from medicines. You can tell that I am a serious advocate of the natural oils in our lives. They provide solutions to problems we face in our modern day lives without chemical side effects.

Everyone in Australia and elsewhere seems to be fascinated by the magical beauty and uniqueness of Istanbul. Before Australia, as a Turkish national I spent 29 years non-stop in Istanbul and I found out many visitors need an itinerary with a local touch. In this blog entry you will find my personal favorite places, attractions and accommodations both for Istanbul and secondly for Cappadocia, where the fairy chimneys are. I don't want to impose anything on anyone, these are just my humble experiences. (I added some external links of web pages here to make it easy for you to navigate, so you can click on some names) Istanbul trip is not just about museums or history. The city is very much alive; it is all about eating, shopping, stroking a stray cat and living the moment to its fullest. So my first advice would be no matter what you plan you will miss something in the end as the city and its hidden treasures are huge. WHERE TO STAY? For accommodation i would suggest Sultanahmet district, the old city. The reason is Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Basilica Cistern, Grand Bazaar can be visited in 1 day as all these are within a walking distance to each other. Topkapi Palace is also in this area but I would prefer to do it on the a separate day because it takes longer to finish the palace. In recent years we stayed in Amira Hotel, the latest one with my and my partner's mums a year ago. As I did not hear any complaints from our mothers I take it as a positive sign. USEFUL TIPS: As it will be your first visit probably you can ask for Airport Transfer when you book your hotel, or you can simply take a taxi at the Ataturk Airport. Don't forget taxis is Istanbul are usually small Fiats or factory fitted LPG cars so if you are 5 people with many suitcases it would not work. Second tip: Istanbul can be as expensive as Sydney. They only use Turkish Liras in taxis. Don't forget to get some local currency at the international airport. For light travelers I would recommend the interconnected light metro and tram system. At the Ataturk International Airport there is a light metro system taking you half way through. You can change the line in Zeytinburnu station and hop on to tram to Sultanahmet district. All announcements are both in Turkish and English, so are the signs, it is not too difficult after all. If you are going to stay for a week or so in Istanbul the alternative would be buying an IstanbulCard (like Opal of Sydney, Oyster of London) for tram, metro, ferry, bus, all are connected. DAY ONE: From Amira Hotel you can walk to Sultanahmet (Blue Mosque) in one minute and to Hagia Sophia in 3-4 mins. If you are travelling at a peak season I would suggest to wake up reasonably early and visit the Blue Mosque to beat the tourist crowd. 20 minutes or maximum 30 minutes should be enough to see and photograph the whole interior of the mosque. Remember during the prayer times the mosque is closed to tourists. In your case only the noon prayer would affect you, so be mindful between 11:30 am to 1:30 pm as the mosque might be closed. Next stop is Hagia Sophia, one of the historical architectural wonders and the biggest church of its time in ancient Istanbul. Usually queues for entry are too long and move slow. If this is the case you can skip and wait till next day if you wish. It would take an hour to finish Hagia Sophia. Behind Hagia Sophia there is a street called Kurucesme Sokagi with authentic Ottoman houses served as hotels today. You might like to see how the life was once upon a time. Imagine yourself in front of Hagia Sophia. You will see a tram line on the road. (You can always use this line to go to Grand Bazaar or to Karakoy- Taksim area, it works both ways and you can ask the locals) After Hagia Sophia when you cross the main road in 5 seconds you will see the entrance of the Basilica Cistern an ideal place to hide from heat and it is quite relaxing. The cistern is a Byzantien underground structure used for irrigation of the city, really beautiful) 30 mins enough + you can have your photo taken in traditional Ottoman costumes, tacky but nice! After this you can walk up on Nuruosmaniye Caddesi (street) to the Grand Bazaar (Kapalicarsi). About a km walk to get there. This is one of the oldest and covered markets of the world with separate sections for jewellery, carpets, leather, currency exchange. Minimum 2-3 hours required. Not luxurious yet very good local restaurants and Turkish coffee houses inside the Grand Bazaar might help you to have a bit rest. DAY TWO: The world-famous Topkapi Palace is also behind the Hagia Sophia and it would take 3-4 hours easily to see Harem and Selamlik (Female and Male) sections. LUNCH IDEA: Try Konyali Restaurant in the garden of the palace, but be mindful it is pricey! Snack menu was not that good so I moved to real menu! Ali Nazik and all other kebap + rice selections were cooked for the sultans, yum) HIDDEN TREASURE: SULEYMANIYE MOSQUE AND ITS NEIGHBORHOOD Not as famous as the Blue Mosque but best mosque of Istanbul in terms of architecture is Suleymaniye Mosque. Relaxing, spacious and different. You can take the tram to Sirkeci and then walk to the mosque through Egyptian Spice Bazaar and old, traditional, narrow streets. NUMBER TWO RULE: TAKSIM, Taksim is the name of the central district, all suggestions I made here are on the European side and close to Taksim by underground, bus or taxi. Taksim Square (or also known Beyoglu and Istiklal Avenue is about 1 km long and is harbors the most cosmopolitan, liberal and gay district of the city) In Taksim, to my taste the best restaurant is Haci Abdullah. For dinner: If you happen to be in Taksim at night time, I would recommend a dinner or at least a cocktail in Marmara Hotel Roof Restaurant or Bar. The view is really good. MY PLACES TO GO: As an Istanbulite I would highly recommend the Maiden Tower an islet with a Byzantine romantic legend, cafes and restaurant and museum. You can see the whole old city from the sea: Here is the link Do you like antiques? Then Cukurcuma is your district. It is next to Taksim, walking distance. Here is the link ISTANBUL MODERN MUSEUM : If you are into contemporary art and museums then this is a good place to be. From Taksim Square there is a underground funicular system going to Kabatas where the museum is. 10 mins from Taksim. LOCAL SHOPPING EXPERIENCE: Eminonu district is good to give an idea about local life, you will find the Epyptian Bazaar, an old stone building where you can buy spices etc. Turkish Delight: In Eminonu you will see the first Turkish delight manufacturer Haci Bekir (since 1777). These guys used to cater for the Ottoman sultans. Their first manufacturing place is still open. Here is the address: Hamidiye Cad. No.83 34110 Eminönü / İstanbul Tel. 212 522 06 66 SHOPPING MALLS: If you like urban life and modern way of shopping you can go to Levent area by using the underground system. Please search Tripadvisor for further comments on these shopping malls. METRO CITY (average price) KANYON (upmarket) ISTINYE PARK (expensive) AKMERKEZ (one of the first shopping malls in Istanbul) There are hundreds of more malls everywhere in the city. Shopping paradise really! FOR CAPPADOCIA I assume first you will stay in Istanbul. It is better to fly light to Cappadocia. If you like leaving heavy luggage to be stored at the Istanbul hotel would be an idea. Also if you have a transit flight back home i would suggest to come back from Cappadoccia 1 day earlier to Istanbul in case there is delay, cancellation. I would not normally expect such thing but still caution would be good. How to get there from Istanbul? Either by bus or plane. Flying to Kayseri where Cappadocia is near. Last time we took Pegasus Airlines Very reliable, low-budget carrier like JetStar. But it only flies from the second airport on the Asian side of Istanbul. It is called Sabiha Gokcen Airport. To get there from there are shuttle bus services from Taksim. It cost approx: 6 AUD per person. Havatas's webpage is also in English. Another alternative flying Anadolu Jet, Turkish Airlines from Ataturk Airport. It is easier but flight would cost more. For Cappadocia baloon tour, the best one was Butterfly Balloons in our experience 2 years ago. Please insist on Mike as the pilot as he speaks English and very experienced. For Cappadocia accommodation i had chosen a bit luxurious hotel called Gamirasu Cave Hotel, about few kms away from the town centre, below i put its web address yet please remember there are hundreds of similar cave hotels in Goreme city centre and personally i would advise to look at Tripadvisor to find a good one. Of course the bible for tourism is the Tripadvisor, you can also find the best and new deals like cafes on it. I am done here, the rest is up to you. How do they say, oh yes Bon Voyage:-)

Your emotions are touchable. They have tentacles and arms like an octopus to caress, hold or sometimes squeeze the physical body. Don't be fooled by the kindness of the society, any secret feelings of yours can be felt by others around! Deep-buried desires will be manifested in real actions sooner or later as your dreams always find a way to reach the surface one day. Provided that you are open enough to read and accept those feelings then you can learn from yourself and better this life. If you close your eyes to the truth laid bare before your eyes then there might be an invitation for diseases. Public image can wait but not your true self. By being just who you are can liberate the existence, take the soul to a completely new journey in this world. Don't be scared of the outside world. Daring perhaps, but also essential to lead a less-complicated world for you. A heaven. Your heaven. Don't forget oppressed individuals, groups or nations lack the ability to mature the way they are supposed to. Instead of judging this and that, it is time to focus in 2015 what you have in hand. You... With thoughts + love, Deniz

Some of my clients ask me how I can possibly give readings from a distance? It is true that I do psychic phone readings, online fortune telling (via email, Skype or even our old conventional phone) so in many cases I do not necessarily sit face-to-face with my client. In those sessions there is no body language, no mimic gestures, no nodding heads involved, yet the reading works and the customer is satisfied with clarity. My easiest and the most direct explanation to accurate psychic telling is this: If you are in Florida and I am in Sydney and if I do not see you in fact it is even better, because there is no way to give a cold reading. Remember you need to be cautious, a psychic medium should not ask you questions before or during the seance. The less I know the more better for you and for the objective outcome. Let me do the talking. If I am short of any details, don't worry I will say more and give more clues in the next chapter. If I can't perhaps I am unable or wrong. We all deserve to be skeptics in life therefore my readings always come minimum in two or more segments. Only after these various stages I take your questions. Why? Because all questions also hide a little bit of your life and your truth in it and I should not know them beforehand. Don't forget we are not friends... This is not a discussion. It is your chance to get your honest answers from a stranger. What can I wish for you: A new treadmill or elliptical for home? Or a new body for this summer? No, I will stick to my old ways. I wish love and even more love for you. Deniz

Turkish coffee cup reading is an ancient way of divination, occult and fortune telling. Usually this tradition is passed down from one generation to another by grandmothers. In our Australian multicultural society especially the Turkish, Greek, Cypriot, Armenian, Croatian, Macedonian, Serbian, Arabic, Iranian, Azerbaijani, Russian communities are more familiar to this tradition thanks to our older members of our families. As a psychic medium I have been using the Turkish coffee as a tool for the last 19 years and I find it very useful in clairsentience and mediumistic channeling Hereby for the readers I would like to explain what some of the coffee ground shapes mean. How do you read a coffee? Simply drink your Turkish style coffee in white china with no inside pattern or decoration. Shapes and patterns inside the coffee cup and on the saucer need to be visible for reading. After drinking most of the liquid in the coffee, cover the cup with the upside-down saucer and swirl three times. Put it down and allow a few minutes for the coffee to settle. Though it has some universally agreed rules, coffee cup reading is a very personal experience based upon on the sixth sense, clairvoyance and concentration. Let's begin with separation the cup from its saucer: Your reading is about to start... When you separate the cup from its saucer, occasionally a big piece of the coffee grind might fall down on to the saucer. Do not worry, this is considered to be a very positive sign as this means that you are achieving your goals and all troubles are leaving you. Stuck: Sometimes the cup and its saucer are stuck when you try to separate them. You can even lift the cup and the saucer beneath comes with it like glued to the white china! They say it is prophet’s coffee cup! Even though this is not what I believe or practice some argue that you do not need to open the cup who drunk the coffee as all wishes of the person will come true anyway. Saucer: To me symbols on the saucer generally talk about the person’s love and home life. Bottom & Middle and Top parts: In Turkey coffee cup is divided into horizontal halves: Some instances aside, generally, shapes in the bottom of the cup are the messages that are believed from your past, middle part presents your current day whereas the top and edges give hints of the unknown future. You can always see clues about your home, family, friends and jealousies at the bottom of your cup. Big Shapes at the top: If the shape is close to the top and also big, some argue that a big event will happen soon. Lines: Vertical lines are your goals in life. It is believed the bigger, chunkier and darker the lines are the better the outcome gets. All straight lines inside the white china show a clear plan with specific goals whereas the wavy or broken lines mean uncertainty and bad news consequently. Some interprets the cup also in vertical halves to determine the answer of your questions. Triangle: Change is coming to your life. Y letter: Good news, help coming from a friend. Dots: A group of black dots up to 5 or 10 means that you might receive money soon. Some also interpret these dots as a reference to travelling or a message. If a large group of dots are visible in most of the cup, this indicates that the plans of the person who drunk the coffee are not clear enough. Around the handle of the cup: Open to interpretation... Some readers think part around the cup handle signifies the development of your love life. (Occasionally it might be the case but I save this area for other life issues.) Right and left: According to the tradition the right side from the cup handle tells the future – again to me it is immediate future – To me left side of the cup handle is the continuity of the future too. (Some might interpet left part of the handle as present time) Also depending on the origin of the reader, he/she might read the patterns in the right side of the cup handle as good and patterns in the left side of the cup handle as evil developments. Eye: If this is an angry and dark looking eye, this clearly means jealousy, evil eye. If this is a positive look then it means someone is thinking of you, missing you. House: Relocation. The size and look of the shape give clues about your new dwelling. Circle: A circle with heaps of white area inside means accomplishment in life. Tree: Things are evolving and progressing the way you want them to be, though slowly. It might mean profit and/or family happiness. Tree is considered to be one of the very good signs. Gate & Door: Opportunity, opening to a new era. Crown: Like in any culture crown symbolises success and authority. Ribbon & Tie: Happy event, celebration. Star: One of the rare signs to see in a cup and star means investment. Key: A key means a new house, relocation, financial success. Sun or sun set: Means power. Very good and unexpected development is occuring. Bag: Success, money Ear: Someone is who is quick to pick up news is listening to you. Butterfly: Unreliable and worrying friendship. Bird: News but good news. Holding Hands: Agreement Anchor: Attaining a high place, finding security in life. Fish (Any kind including Whale & Dolphin): Very big achievement especially in your career. Candle: Opening the mind, wisdom and knowledge. Knife: Physical danger in the future. Moon: Love Letter: Good news Ring: Union, marriage. Broken ring: Separation Scissors: Argument with loved ones. Open the heart: Following the reading, the person who drunk the coffee places his/ her right thumb at the inside bottom of the cup and twists clockwise slightly. This is to create new shapes in the cup to see the very personal emotions and thoughts of the person you read. With universal peace and love, Deniz

Coffee indulgence in Abu Dhabi For centuries coffee has been a social ritual for Turkish people. Their famous proverb goes “Heart wants just a friendly chat; coffee is merely an excuse”. But any sort of coffee - the long-roasted black one! Usually, friends and families crown their dinner parties with a Turkish coffee to prolong the conversation. When done properly black, short coffee has a surprise at the end. The last sip comes with black grains where most of the caffeine sits. But even the last sip means the coffee indulgence is over, it does not mean the talking is over too. In fact, another form of discussion, or consultation, kicks off - especially amongst the ladies. This is when tiny, elegant cups are covered with saucers, swirled three times, turned upside down and wishes are made. Some put a coin or a golden ring on the back of the cup to cool the cup more quickly. Then the magic of Turkish coffee ground reading begins. If you happen to visit Istanbul these days you will notice many ‘coffee houses’ offering free express readings for their clients. Traditionally, Turkish coffee houses were largely male domains, almost forbidden to ladies. Even in small towns, coffee houses were the centre point for village men to talk about politics and local affairs, as well as to play backgammon and while away the hours. The trendy coffee houses of today are more like Western-style cafes and welcome every gender and age group. Interpretation of coffee shapes in white china varies from one reader to another, but there are universally agreed upon rules as well. Generally speaking, the shapes at the bottom of the cup signify your past, while the ones close to the top your future. If there are any shapes on the edge of the cup, and most importantly on the saucer, they should be read as well. The saucer usually shows your love life. Basically, to see a potential husband, or the qualities of the potential husband, you need to look to the saucer. Children generally appear inside the cup. Throughout the centuries, Turkish ladies along with their Greek, Lebanese, Bosnian and Armenian counterparts looked at coffee shapes to figure out what kind of man they would be getting. They were also concerned about how many children they would conceive as well as their gender and health. It is quite understandable why they were interested in the health of their future children because in the seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, especially in Eastern Europe and the Middle East, wars, famine and disease increased infant mortality and maternal death rates. These days, ladies are still curious about their love life and family, but more and more questions arise about career choices, personal growth and self-realisation. In Turkey they say: coffee should be black as hell, strong as death and sweet as love. I think this proverb is the exact definition of the Turkish coffee. Lots of thick coffee, a bit of sugar and here is your fortune! For divination I also use the foremost element of life: water. Water has always mystified man in many ways because of its cleansing and purifying properties. Water readings are known as hydromancy. The way I conduct a water reading is to put water in a glass and let my client hold it for few seconds. I look at the water’s movement, its direction, and the rings it forms in the glass. I lose myself in the water and focus on one point which helps me connect with the client, the universe and its limitless power. Another way is to put a few drops of oil in water and then see if they merge or not. This method is especially recommended for when people are grieving or have recently lost someone or something. You can also read the face of a smiling person. Our life and choices are limitless. We are the ones who put up boundaries and, by using the power of nature, we are the only ones who can liberate ourselves. *The article "Black as Night, Sweet as Love" by Psychic Deniz Batuk has been originally published in the International Psychics Directory - 2014 Australian Edition

Hello my dear readers, Last April I received an email from womo.com.au which stands for Word Of Mouth Online and publishes customer reviews of local businesses in Australia. I was understandably very excited when I read the following: “We’ve recently tallied the reviews for 2012 and based on customer feedback, Psychic Deniz was in the TOP 5% OF BUSINESSES for that year! This means that youre a 2012 WOMO SERVICE AWARD WINNER” True! Everyday I give readings to my regulars and new clients. Like anyone else sometimes I forgot how blessed I am and how well my readings went. I just wanted to know how I won this award in the first place and began reading all feedback provided on this website about my psychic readings. Apparently there are two types of comments. The first one is about the personal approach than the expertise on the field. Those kind reviews state that I was very honest, calm, warm, caring, relaxing, respectful and so on. (Am I that calm, I think we should raise this question to my partner at home!) The second and most important aspect of your reviews are about the predictions. Here are some examples of your thoughts on my readings: ‘So far I have seen Deniz twice and on both occasions he was on the spot with his predictions in all areas - more specifically he gave me some life changing advice which I am so grateful for. With his guidance I have met the love of my life, 6 months after the second time I saw Deniz I am now married and so happy. Deniz gave me the courage to break old habits and I am really looking forward to my future. ‘ ‘I have to say that Deniz's reading for me was uncanny in describing the personalities of people in my reading, and so far all that he described is working out even though I doubted some predictions at the time. ‘ ‘I tried few clairvoyants in the past 19 years and only 2 of them have stand out. One has passed away 15 years ago in Brazil, Alvaro, he was amazing. And now, for the past 2 years I have been going to see Deniz, and I can't describe and gifted he is. ‘ ‘I first went to see Deniz in March 2012. At that time, he told me specific accurate details of my situation and gave me insight of what was about to happen. Now, 6 months down the track, the thing he predicted just came true. Amazing!’ ‘The main thing about Deniz I find is that his predictions always seem to come true - I honestly have not met any psychic that can predict outcomes to situations as much as Deniz can.’ ‘I was amazed and impressed with his accuracy in face readings and personality descriptions.’ ‘I found his coffee cup reading to be incredibly accurate, very helpful and very interesting.’ ‘I felt very relaxed with him. He was also accurate about my present, personality and I am just waiting for the future to come.’ ‘During my reading Deniz was so right concerning my ''ex'' boyfriend. All what he said was spot on. First I didn't listen and had hoped I could go back to my exboyfriend on my own (after breaking up with him) silly i know.... and he buffed me off and he said exactly what Deniz has said.’ ‘The reading was amazing and answered in detail, my many questions I had. I have recommended Deniz to all my friends. I have seen many psychics throughout the years and Deniz has been the best one by far.’ ‘Deniz is a talented reader and was able to pick up on many people in my life and gave me cues to move forward.’ ‘I have seen several physics in the past but no-one has been as accurate, insightful, genuine and clear as Deniz.’ ‘He was very accurate in his description of me and the events going on in my life at the moment.’ ‘The main thing is, he helped me with my problems and I now know what to do.’ ‘Deniz is a caring person with incredible insight.’ ‘I saw Deniz 3 months ago, I was very surprised at his reading...however his reading gave me clarity and everything he has said has come true.’ ‘Deniz' reading absolutely amazed me - accurate in terms of people in my life and the situation at present and detailed predictions that I walked away with it. One has come true already. ‘ ‘Deniz was remarkably accurate and gave me much hope for the future.’ ‘Astonishing ... the reading was so interesting, accurate in depth and details.’ ‘Psychic Deniz is amazing and I definitely feel better after talking to him so far some of the things he said did come true.’ ‘Deniz is an accurate man when it comes to reading your cup. It's amazing how he knows so much about you without you telling him anything.’ ‘Deniz has helped guide me and keep me positive and have highly recommended him to my friends and family. There is simply no one like him!’ ‘Whatever you told me about my family and circumstances are slowly "happening". I have said this before, "you are amazing and spot on" ‘ Till my next blog stay with love, peace and a big smile on your face:-) Psychic Deniz

When I give you a Turkish coffee cup reading, I interpret certain shapes. To me those dark brown patterns and the white areas in the cup, on the saucer or even on the edges of the cup are full with clues of your life. Beyond these coffee ground shapes I sense, see and hear things about your future. This is the whole combination and how your reading eventuates basically. Are you anxious when you first come and see me? Well, like you are I am nervous too. Each time I face a new client, I get a sensation similar to a stage fright or performance anxiety. 'Will I be good and accurate enough' or 'will I be able to connect'... The list goes on. The only way to leave these negative thoughts behind is being honest and open with you during the whole session. Looking at the cup and its saucer helps me to focus on your life completely which means for a while I become like you. I see people and things around you with your eyes. The first part of the Turkish coffee cup reading consists of my continuous talking, talking and talking more without knowing anything about you. Later on I take your questions and look at the photos of your loved ones to elaborate more. During the session your fears and joys become mine too. We often cry or laugh together. Besides a strong intuition there is no magic involved in this! The only magic is YOU! As a final note, I would like to thank my client Rebecca, who kindly provided her coffee cup picture for this page. Stay gorgeous and beautiful:-) Deniz

Hello there, evil eye (Nazar in Turkish, Bose Blick in German, Aina Bisha in Arabic and Matisma in Greek) is in fact a very common notion in most of these cultures. Throughout centuries people believed in preventing, blocking and curing the negative gaze of the envier. The general idea behind this concept is when an admirer’s gaze remains focused on you for too long with jealousy that they might send destructive rays. Yes, eyes are crucial! Being the windows to our soul, these wet, tearful eyes can dry up your energy, body fluids, health and wealth too. Basically nothing prospers in your life as long as this curse is removed and you avoid this person. You feel like you are in the Big Brother show, being watched all the time by someone! Sometimes the admirer overlooks intentionally, but most of the time involuntarily. Any gender and eye colour can cast evil eye. As a preventive measure, different nations adopted rather interesting superstitious ways: Some pinched buttocks, some spitted out three times, some did carry on phallus shaped amulets and some attached red ribbons to their loved ones hoping the bright colour would distract evil eyes. It seems like almost no civilisation was immune from the malicious gaze! Can people bestow a curse on victims by simply looking at them heavily? Sometimes? Personally I believe so. I have read many protective measures from various countries. The Greek way is not bad for example as they put two drops of olive oil in a glass of water to see if these drops merge or not. If they do stay separate this means there is no evil eye on you. But if they become one, here is the problem! The Greek elderlies also have some special prayers to heal the victim. Yet my favourite is the traditional Mexican way… a longer process than the Greek one! Instead of olive oil and water Mexicans use egg and water. A raw egg (broken or as a whole) is put in a glass of water and this stays under your bed closer to your bed head overnight. If the egg looks like cooked or dry this means two things: 1) Yes, there was spell on you 2) Yes, the evil eye has been removed successfully! As you may know I am originally from Turkey where almost anyone is superstitious in one way or another. Blue evil eye beads are hanging on the doors, walls, even rear view mirrors in the cars. Babies have amulets attached to their undershirts by their parents whereas some ladies let someone melt lead and then pour it into the water over their head to undo the curse is also a common practice. It is about what and who you believe…

Hi Everyone, apart from continuous coffee cup reading enquiries, emails, and one-on-one readings even the North Korean issue keeps me busy these days. Finally I am sick of watching the North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's daily performance on my TV screen how he would 'mercilessly kill all Americans and South Koreans on this planet', so I have a chance to get down to write another piece of blog. Do not get me wrong! I am not complaining because I know I am blessed with all the telephone calls, enquiries and readings, but to write an article or blog I need my absolute peace and silence. Accepting the fact that this tranquil moment is never going to arrive, I decided to take matters into hand and write my second blog within 15 minutes, no matter how many calls I receive! (Sorry, I am not here) Some time ago during my readings I have come to realization that my clients need some kind of continuity following their readings. Therefore I have launched http://www.facebook.com/CoffeeCupReadings/ to answer your questions and look at the photos you send me! They are not actually your photos but your loved ones' images. Let's say someone meets a potential girlfriend or a boyfriend. They share the photo with me and I do best to tell them what kind of characteristics they might expect from this new person. (A nice person, a cheater etc.) Secondly, I receive many follow-up questions something like "Oh, Deniz this and that you predicted happened. Do you think this other prediction will eventuate as well?" Again to my best ability I answer them all on facebook, via email or even text messages. . But in a very short way, not pages! Well, the best thing about this service is that it is completely FREE. So all my current customers utilize this service on http://www.facebook.com/CoffeeCupReadings/ As you know I offer authentic Turkish coffee cup readings face-to-face in Sydney, or via email, phone or Skype. Take a look at my full range of psychic reading services. In a few days, you will be hearing from me on the topic of "does evil eye really exist? If yes, how to protect yourselves from the evil gaze of others" Till then stay with love and peace, Coffee Cup Reader Deniz

Reading coffee cups... As a technique of divination I have been reading coffee cups professionally for the last 17 years, and during that time I have met your faces and heard your voices. I specialise in personal relationships, business and past lives. How do I know you? Your Coffee Cup Reading When you finish your coffee I start looking at those little brown shapes in your coffee cup. Yet the shapes are not all, I use more than the puzzle of brown patterns to gain insight into your life. I hear words. They are like a whisper from an unknown source, nothing like a human voice. There is no gender associated to the voice. I see visions, some blurred, and some very clear! Sometimes I sense locations including rooms, situations of this present day and the future. And most importantly I sense your thoughts. How do you feel in your own skin? Then I switch to people’s perceptions of you. Are they happy with you? Or is there any resentment towards you? Who were you in a past life (if applicable)? Is there any special message from your lost loved ones? Who are you? Well, without going too deep I would like to emphasize some demographic facts. For years I have been gathering data by simply asking you. I can happily announce that most of my clients are ladies falling into 25-45 age category. As of December 2012, 80 percent of you are women! However, the percentage of male customer is on the rise, increasing from 10 percent to 20 percent in 2011-2012. In face-to-face sessions at my Sydney location, most of you are Australian-born and bred, coming from Greek, Turkish, Cypriot, Lebanese, Croatian, Bosnian, Russian, South African, English, Irish and Armenian backgrounds. For my email, phone and Skype readings, clients come from countries such as India, Egypt, UK, Canada, US and UAE. Key reasons people ask for a coffee cup reading vary due to the different curiosities, questions or concerns you have about your own lives. But if I had to make a top 5 list of topics, they would be: Love and relationships Careers Health Children Past lives Although the answers we seek differ, we all are all essentially looking for the same thing. A purpose in life, love, success, acceptance. If you believe and work for it, changing your life for the better is very much achievable and I can give you a helping hand by providing insight into your life and guidance for your future. I offer authentic Turkish coffee cup readings face-to-face in Sydney, or via email, phone or Skype. Take a look at my full range of psychic reading services. Stay with love, Deniz
