We visited Wong Tia Sin Temple yesterday. We were able to experience the process of the fortune telling. We entered the temple and were given a round wooden container with 100 wooden sticks in it. You ask a question you want to know, ususally when worshipers face a decision or a croosroad in life. You then kneel and shake the bamboo cylinder until a flat bamboo stick falls out onto the ground. The stick has a number on it, that is the number that goes with that question. You continue to do this until you have a number for each question. We then went over to the soothsayer and gave him our number and question. If you receive a "good" card it means good things for you and you are to keep it for one year, if it is a "bad" card then the soothsayer will keep it and burn it for you.
