Fortune-telling
STUFFED BIRDS.--A discovery that something upon which you had set your
heart proves unsatisfying.
SUBMARINE.--Swiftly arriving news or events; sometimes the disclosure of
a secret which will be of much personal value to you.
SUN.--This promises happiness, health, success in love, prosperity, and
the beneficial discovery of secrets.
SUN BONNET.--A sign of originality, personal charm and attraction,
sometimes coquetry.
SUNDIAL.--You are warned to take heed as to the way in which you spend
your time.
SUNFLOWER.--This flower proclaims learning and a satisfactory conclusion
in matters which are most interesting to you; it also implies that you
may reasonably expect a scheme to work out greatly to your advantage.
SUSPENDERS.--These show precaution.
SUSPENSION BRIDGE.--A venture in which much is at stake but after a time
of anxiety you arrive at final triumph.
SWALLOW.--A journey with a happy result; if flying, joyful tidings from
someone you love; if several swallows are flying, they indicate a
journey to a warm climate under very pleasant conditions.
SWAN.--This bird is significant of tribulation, troublesome conditions
in the home, and sometimes of separation from those whom you love.
SWEEP.--The performing of an urgent disagreeable business will shortly
fall to your lot.
SWEET WILLIAM.--This flower signifies that happiness in the past has
tinged your future with sadness.
SWIMMING.--A brave endeavour to overcome your fear of an undertaking
which must be faced.
SWING-BOAT.--By an act of folly, you forfeit the good opinion of someone
with whom you most desire to be on terms of friendship.
SWORD.--This is a sign of danger, sudden illness, or even death; it also
betokens slander and dangerous gossip; to lovers it is a bad omen of
quarrels; a sword in its sheath shows honour and glory for someone dear
to you; a broken sword predicts the triumph of an enemy.
T
TABLE.--This means suggestions and consultation; note the subject from
the surrounding signs.
TAMBOURINE.--A symbol of lighthearted gaiety which will follow a time of
gloom or worry. See also CHILD WITH TAMBOURINE.
TEA COSY.--To the unmarried, this is a sign that they will probably
remain single; to the married, affection and comfort in the small things
of life.
TEA-CUP AND SAUCER.--You may expect to hear something of much interest
and pleasure in your "fortune."
TEETH.--These call attention to the fact that probably a visit to the
dentist is required.
TELEGRAPH POST.--Hasty news by telephone or telegram.
TELEGRAPH WIRES.--You will transact important business by telephone or
telegram.
TELEPHONE.--You will be put to considerable inconvenience through
forgetfulness.
TELESCOPE.--This predicts the probability of trouble with your eyesight.
TENNIS NET.--This shows pleasures and social entertainments.
TENT.--A symbol of travel.
THIMBLE.--For a girl, this symbol implies that she will probably never
marry; to the married, it predicts changes in the household.
