Meaning in the coffee cup
What does Scales mean in the Ottoman-Persian reading?
The scales promise that justice will prevail and a long-wavering matter will find its balance; what is rightfully yours will be measured out to you in fair portion.

A legal or disputed matter is at hand: if the scales hang even, you win and the right is yours; if they tilt, injustice may follow, yet a tangled quarrel will untie itself in the end.
What does Scales mean in the German / Central-European reading?

Where in the cup does Scales appear — and what does that change?
At the rim the verdict is near, at the bottom the dispute drags on and reaches deep into the past; near the handle the scales concern your own affair, opposite it a stranger's quarrel, and the higher they float, the sooner the judgment falls.
Scales — At the rim (near future)
At the rim the scales are about to tip: a pending decision or a small dispute finds its fair balance within the coming days.
Scales — In the middle (present)
In the middle the scales weigh an ongoing matter of the coming weeks; a legal or business affair comes into balance and is fairly settled.
Scales — At the base (distant/hidden)
At the base the scales stand for a long-smouldering injustice or an old unsettled account; deep in the hidden a reckoning ripens that comes to light only late.
Scales — At the handle (yourself, home)
At the handle the scales concern you yourself and your house: balance is restored in family or partnership, or you yourself are called to judge fairly.
