Chain
LoveChain is a sign from the “Love” group. Here is how Chain is read in the coffee grounds across the traditional schools:
Meaning in the coffee cup
What does Chain mean in the Ottoman-Persian reading?
The chain is a bond that links two fates: a betrothal or wedding draws near, link joining link as destiny has woven it.
What does Chain mean in the Russian-Bulgarian reading?
The chain usually means engagement or marriage, but a weak or broken link warns of a stifling tie or a lingering illness.
What does Chain mean in the German / Central-European reading?
The chain points to a firm bond in the house — an engagement or marriage is in the offing. If a link is weak or broken, it warns of an oppressive tie you would do better to loosen.
Where in the cup does Chain appear — and what does that change?
At the rim the bond is imminent, at the bottom it is long-standing or runs deep; near the handle the chain ties you and your home, opposite it binds you to someone distant or a stranger.
