Throwing coins into a wishing well is one of the most popular ways of making a wish and it is a common practice in picturesque Italian or French markets with elaborate fountain designs. Speaking a wish over a regular well however is said to have similarly positive effects on the wish which is said to be soon granted. The Celts and the Germans were the first ones to use this belief system, and their explanation was simple: they thought the water inside wells was accommodating gods, and had been put there by the deities themselves as a present. Throwing coins in was therefore a way of giving thanks to the gods.

According to the reading, your wish will only come true if you throw your coin into a wishing well.

• True
