Sufi mystics knew centuries ago that coffee had the ability to aid in meditation and prayer. This heightening of the senses lends itself naturally to promoting creative and intuitive thought. Grounds, bubbles, and the array of symbols traditionally used for divination from tea leaves to Tarot cards are keys to understanding ourselves, bypassing overly logic-driven thought to reach deeper instincts.
