Fortune telling

Fortune telling is a way that some people use to try to figure out what might happen in the future. It's like playing pretend, sort of like telling a story, but with a special focus on what will happen next in life.

Fortune tellers use different kinds of tools to help them make predictions. They might use cards, a crystal ball, reading tea leaves, or even exploring the lines in someone's palm. Some people believe that these things can help them see what might happen in the future based on how the cards fall or the lines on the palm.

But it's important to remember that fortune telling isn't always accurate or true. It's just a way that some people try to guess at what could happen. Just like when you play a guessing game, sometimes you get it right and sometimes you don't. So it's best to have fun with fortune telling but not to rely on it too much.
