A crown in coffee grounds: what does it mean?

  • success
  • recognition
  • promotion
  • honour

A crown in coffee grounds is a symbol of recognition and success. By tradition it means a promotion, an award or that your effort will be valued.

What does a crown in a coffee cup mean?

The crown is one of the most uplifting signs in a cup. It stands for honour, authority and victory. It often shows that after long work you will get a well-deserved result.

Where does a crown appear: rim, bottom or handle?

Near the rim, recognition is said to be close. At the bottom it means success waits at the end of a long road. By the handle it is success for a family member or growing respect within the family.

Big, small or blurry: what changes the meaning?

A large, clear crown means a significant achievement; a small one, modest but pleasant praise. A crown with dots is traditionally a financial reward. A blurry crown advises presenting your talent with more confidence.

The crown in your career

At work a crown means a leading position, an award or new responsibility. It is a good time to speak up about your achievements and knock on the door that has long drawn you.
