For readers who like a little drama with their tea

Gold constellations and the twelve signs of the zodiac glow against a glossy black cup and saucer, like stars on a clear night. Inside, a crisp white bowl holds 32 tea leaf reading symbols, circled by my own verse in 24ct gold.

I'm Karin. I design these cups, I read with them, and I teach people to do the same. The black Zodiac is my boldest limited edition, and my choice for readings by candlelight.

How it works

Drink your tea, leaving a little liquid and a few leaves behind. Swirl the cup three times, turn it onto the saucer to drain, then turn it back over. The leaves settle beside the printed symbols: those near the rim speak to the near future, those near the base to what lies further ahead. Your guidebook tells you what each one means.

What it gives you

  • A striking centrepiece for every reading
  • Clarity on the questions already sitting on your mind
  • Ten quiet minutes a day that belong only to you
  • A gift for the friend who lives by the stars

The design

  • Cup: glossy black, with 24ct gold constellations and zodiac signs, a gold handle, rim and foot
  • Saucer: glossy black with gold zodiac signs and stars, and a crescent moon at the centre
  • Inside: 32 traditional tea leaf reading symbols, with my own verse, "Beneath the moon and stars above...", in 24ct gold around the rim
  • Spoon: gold teaspoon with a crystal-topped handle

What you receive

  • 1 black Zodiac teacup, 230ml (7.8 fl oz), with genuine 24ct gold
  • 1 matching saucer
  • Gold teaspoon with a crystal-topped handle, a gift from me
  • 2 sample tubes of my tea, chosen because they read clearly
  • Symbols guidebook, with a QR code that takes you straight to your free online video course (valued at $110 AUD)
  • A small moon and star themed gift, a surprise from me
  • Gold wax seal zodiac tag for your star sign: add your sign in the order notes
  • Want a full pack of tea? Choose the green or black blend option above.

Questions buyers ask

What is the zodiac tag?
A gold wax seal tag for your star sign, with its motto and traits written inside. Add your sign in the order notes and I will include it with your set.

What is the difference between the three Zodiac cups?
The design is the same on all three limited editions: 32 tea leaf symbols, the 12 signs of the zodiac, 24ct gold and a zodiac tag for your sign. Only the colour changes: white, black or midnight navy.

What is the free moon and star gift?
A small moon and star themed surprise, a little thank you from me. It changes from time to time, so every order is a surprise.

How do I get the course?
Scan the QR code in your guidebook and you are in. Buying it as a gift? I can enrol your recipient after delivery; just let me know.

From Karin

I learned to read tea leaves at my mother's table in Tasmania, and I have been reading them all my life. For years my readings spread by word of mouth; in 2012 I took my practice online, and in 2017 I opened my online school, where over 17,000 students have since learned with me. Every piece is designed by me and made in my Berwick studio.

Frequently Asked Questions

These cups are made to be used, not just admired. Most are porcelain and some are New Bone China, both vegan friendly with no animal bone ash, and the imagery is kiln fired into the glaze, so it will not fade, scratch off or wash away with daily use. Karin has put them through extensive testing of her own for longevity. Hand washing is recommended to protect the 24kt gold and platinum detail.

Yes. Every cup is lead free, tested by Karin herself, and the imagery is food safe because it is kiln fired into the glaze using commercial factory grade equipment, which makes it permanent. That means you can drink from your cup every day with complete peace of mind. Please note that cups with gold or platinum detail must never be put in the microwave.

You do not need any experience at all. Each set comes with a symbols guidebook and a QR code for the free online video course, valued at 110 dollars, where Karin walks you through everything from brewing the cup to reading the symbols with confidence.

Loose leaf tea works best, as the leaves settle into the shapes you will be reading. Every teacup set arrives with two tea samplers, a green tea and a black tea, so you can begin the moment it lands on your table, and Karin's own reading blends are available in 25 gram bags when you are ready for more. If you prefer tea bags, the course shows you how to work with those too.

Everything you need is in the box. Each set includes the cup and saucer, two tea samplers, a green tea and a black tea, a teaspoon to match the one pictured in the listing, the symbols guidebook and the QR code for your free online video course. It is a complete tea leaf reading kit ready to use straight away, with nothing further to buy, which is part of what makes it such a lovely gift.
