Each chapter and verse of prophecy have been passed under review many times and his sole aim had been to acquire the very meaning in reading that the prophets gave in writing the prophecies. Having learned that prophecy is a divine system reaching from the garden of Eden to the eternal ages, and perceiving many years ago that neither the Jews, who reject Christ, nor any class of Millennialists were governed by that system in interpretation, the writer prepared a series of lectures on the chief items of the system of prophecy and used those lectures as the basis for this book.

Your Future in a Cup is a "how to" foresee the future using the ancient Middle Eastern, Turkish, or Greek custom of divining with coffee grounds. The author leads us on a step-by-step journey through the 10 chapters of Section I - from preparing the coffee to interpreting the images. Interspersed throughout the text are fascinating examples of readings from the author's files. Many startling, sometimes beautiful, untouched photographs of images formed in cup and saucer grounds illustrate the principles being taught.
The second half of the book consists of an extensive list of symbols and their meanings. If, for example, the image of a particular animal is seen in the grounds, its interpretation would be found in Section II, listed alphabetically under "Animals." The symbols' interpretations are culled from many cultures, historic and contemporary, and from mythology, folklore, literature, religion, and the author's personal experience.
Here is the authoritative work on the subject, written by a metaphyscian, teacher, author and 35-year practitioner of the mystical arts and sciences.
