NY1: Queens Woman Tells Fortunes from Coffee Grounds

A fortune teller from Queens has become an overnight sensation after an appearance on a popular reality television show. NY1’sRuschell Boone sat down for a reading and has more on why there is now a year-long wait to see her.

Sema Bal says she is not a psychic or a medium. She calls herself gifted–and says her gift is her ability to tell someone's fortune just by looking at the coffee grounds in their cup.

"I feel your energy through the coffee, and I read it through that," she said.
