Glossy jet black outside. Inside, all 22 Major Arcana symbols are printed permanently, from The Fool to The World, with a little witch riding her broomstick. When your leaves settle beside The Tower or The Star, you already know where the story is heading.
I'm Karin. I design these cups, I read with them, and I teach people to do the same. This one is for tarot readers who want to bring their cards into their cup.
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. Notice which Major Arcana the leaves gather around, and use your guidebook to read the story they tell together.

Questions buyers ask
I don't know tarot. Can I still use it?
Yes. The Major Arcana symbols guidebook explains each symbol, and the course shows you how to read them in the cup.
How is it different from the Black Witchy cup?
Same jet black cup. This one has the 22 Major Arcana inside; the Black Witchy cup has the 32 traditional tea leaf symbols instead.
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.
Can it go in the microwave?
Yes. There is no gold or metallic trim on this cup, so it is microwave safe.
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.

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.
