One of the most iconic magicians in the world, Harry Houdini, was famously skeptical of mediums and them taking advantage of people (partly out of guilt because early in his career, he and his brother pretended to be mediums to support his family). Then at one point, when grieving for his late mother, he turned to one to see if it could get him any closure. The first thing the medium said was his mother wished him a Merry Christmas. However his mother was Jewish. From that point, he spent a good part of his career debunking them. Even willing to severe friendships because of it. Most famously with avid spiritualist Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (ironic given his fame for creating Sherlock Holmes, who was synonymous with Logic and deductive reasoning). Even on his deathbed he was willing to prove his point. He gave his wife a secret code that only the two of them would know. And if there was a way to reach out from the other side, he would send her that phrase from beyond to admit if he was wrong.

And she passed that on to a friend, and to this day magicians still hold a seance each year in honor of Houdini, 1) to commemorate him, and 2) to drive home the point that it's all fakery and trickery.

If you ever have the opportunity to see Terry Evanswood in Gatlinburg Tennessee he is a honest magician. He sat after his show and told us it was tricks of the eye- and he does not want to be known as a liar or fake. Its a show for enjoyment and he hoped we had fun. I loved his honesty and my children left excited to learn the "tricks" of magic! I had seen David Copperfield as a child and was in awe at how he was magical! It made me question my Christianity- Terry did not put that question out there and I loved that...but he didn't once bring up anything other than its fun and tricks of the eye.

I’m never able to find the words to express the pure, seething rage and contempt I feel towards the frauds who profit from the grieving and most vulnerable. I remember a case roughly 15 to 20 years ago where a “psychic” called Sylvia Browne absolutely devastated the mother of a kidnapping victim by telling her (on national TV) “she’s not alive, honey,” “she’s in water” and described “seeing” her blood-stained clothing. Now, it had been more than a year and a half since her disappearance-similar cases and historical precedence meant the likelihood she would be found alive were _very_ slim-so a fraud like Browne would have felt on pretty safe ground making such a statement. The mother died shortly after of heart failure likely brought on from grief. Her daughter was found alive several years later. For me, these frauds are just unforgivable. There are no words to describe them.

And yes, these vultures LOVE obituaries :(

And this doesn't even cover more modern techniques. "Psychics" can have someone in another room looking up info on a person or place online and transmitting that knowledge back to them via small microphones and speakers. They can also leave people in a bugged room and eavesdrop on their conversations. If they work in a group setting they can pay someone to be a plant and get a perfect "reading" on that person to butter up the other people.

Yep. "Cold reading" is for rubes and amateurs. Professionals use "hot reading," which relies on researching the people that are coming to see them. If you have to make an appointment, then chances are the 'psychic' is using the time between when you made the appointment and when you arrive to look into you and your family history so as to give a more accurate reading.

To expand on what Mark Edward said, the Jersey Shore-acle did what is specifically called "shotgunning." "Shotgunning" is a commonly used cold reading technique. This technique is named after the manner in which a shotgun fires a cluster of small projectiles in the hope that one or more of them will strike the target. The cold reader slowly offers a huge quantity of very general information, often to an entire audience (some of which is very likely to be correct, near correct or at the very least, provocative or evocative to someone present), observes their subjects' reactions (especially their body language), and then narrows the scope, acknowledging particular people or concepts and refining the original statements according to those reactions to promote an emotional response. A majority of people in a room will, at some point for example, have lost an older relative or known at least one person with a common name like "Mike" or "John". Shotgunning might include a series of vague statements such as: "I see a heart problem with a father-figure in your family." A vast variety of medical problems have chest pain as a symptom, and heart disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. "Father-figure" can refer to somebody's father, grandfather, uncle, cousin, or any male relative who is also a parent or has served in a parental role to the person. "I see a woman with blackness in the chest, lung cancer, heart disease, breast cancer..." Most people will know a woman who was diagnosed with one of these problems, which are among the leading causes of illness and death. "I sense an older male figure in your life, who wants you to know while you may have had disagreements in your life, he still loved you." Nearly all people will have had such a person in their lives, and nearly all of them will have had a disagreement.

DanTheMan Idk. I talk to dead people, but it’s not my job and I don’t do it for anyone or ask anyone for money. I’m also not here trying to become famous or prove I have special powers. I have no explanation for what I can do, but I can do it. When it comes down to it, either I’m insane (I don’t think so, but that is of course possible), deluded (also possible, though I don’t feel like that’s true) or lying. I’m not lying, so back to the other two possibilities-unless of course there is another possibility-the possibility that we just don’t know everything about the universe yet, and that over time, we may end up figuring it out. I know that’s true. This has always been something I have compartmentalized, because I am a non-religious person of science.

One time I was doing this to my friends, and one of them called me out on the whole "J could be anyone" thing. So I'm like ok, fine, let's do something specific. Sometime in the next 10 minutes a brown car is going to pull up (we were hanging around outside a convenience store pay phone, waiting for a friend to call it. This was the 90's, we didn't have cell phones, we just knew where everyone hung out, and memorized the pay phone numbers for those places.) and it's going to be full of people you haven't seen in years. I totally pulled that out of my ass, fully expecting it to not happen, and we'd all have a laugh about it when it didn't come true. Except it happened. Brown station wagon full of kids he went to school with a few years prior, but lost touch with when his family moved across town. And he gives me this slack-jawed look of shock and probably a little bit of fear. I mean I'm not psychic and I don't believe in psychics, but I freaked MYSELF out being bang on the money like that. Never happened again. Total one off, pure random chance, with the best possible timing. I mean what are the odds?

Through research i've been able to figure out exactly why she does it and it's really unfortunate. But it doesn't excuse this horrid behavior, even if they think they are helping.

You'd be surprised. There's also a lot of performance, charisma, and emotional connection used, which people don't always separate from the spiritual. Heck, certain groups basically equate emotions with spiritual forces. While the video was specifically about "psychics", those methods pop up all over.

What really creepy is when somebody you don't know are playing Ouji board with people you don't know, and somebody ends up asking stuff about somebody in the room ie when and where you were born, what your favorite things were, where you live, how many pets you own, personal information and all that stuff... when your watching the game, and not playing or saying anything. You either got a stalker or a demon, and honey I don't know which is worse.

I was a Tarot card.reader, I still have them and look at them. I had done some very odd and.specific readings that freaked people out but I was sceptical of their insight into the future or straight up fortune.telling. But the deck (I always used rider-waite)is fascinating in itself. The major arcana I have always thought of as archetypes and the minor arcana as encompassing most of the average human beings misery (concerns) and some suggestions for each or warnings, heck even.identifying a problem. So the practical usefulness is random chance, just asking a question,.shuffling the deck and pulling a card may present an idea you may not.have thought of in the context.of your problem, something to consider not the dead.talking to you :-)

Kallen collins Im a beginner in tarot and Although I still am working on reading cards intuitively to me it seems very obvious that it’s not random because many times the cards jump out at me. And sometimes when I ask questions I kind of already know the answer to and I’m stubborn, I put the cards back in and reshuffle because I think “we’ll it didn’t jump out” and then the after shuffling the same cards show up again, making it clear it wasn’t random. Do the math. A tarot deck has 78 cards, what is the probably that out of 5 shuffles that the same card would show up. So no it’s not random. For the same reason if the “random” argument I never take cards from the top, I shuffle sometimes for five minutes until the cards jump out on their own. Sometimes depending on the question I could shuffle forever and nothing comes out because the question doesn’t serve my highest good or it’s been answered already and I’ve been too stubborn trying to shuffle the cards again seeking different results. Some weird things I notice is sometimes when I shuffle I can see the cards being rearranged and the order manipulated before my very eyes. And it’s really startling how some messages are so strong that a card fly’s right out of the deck. Of course not everyone has these experiences because of course not everyone is in high vibration energy. Having a tarot deck doesn’t make you a reader, you kind of have be spiritually enlightened to have those experiences. That’s what attracts spirit guides to you. And seeing by the comment section it’s very rare.

@@bonbon2225 I often have the same experiences, cards seem to consistently pop up in themes, it doesn't seem random. And yet if you look at the nature of randomness, random doesn't always look random. There can actually be runs in cards and people look and see patterns that are not there. I see the cards as a tool and for fun. If it's not random then what is it ? I think saying that tarot cards talk to you, tell the future then I think you are giving them too much power. I enjoy them for what they are.
@bonbon2225
@bonbon2225 4 жыл бұрын
Kallen collins tarot has never been about telling the future it’s meant to be introspective. The tarot cards are simply a portal. What the reading gives is a current snapshot of the energies present. It only gives a glimpse of what could happen in the future if you keep going down the path that you’re going on. There’s no logical explanation for the ways that the cards behave when I use them. And it’s not like I’m scamming myself. I believe there is spiritual activity involved because I’ve seen it and felt it. The cards are a tool they have no power they are just a messenger. A way to communicate with the beyond and actually understand. Since humans can’t really speak with angels or spirits, although you sense their presence if you hear ringing in your ear which I often do, the cards tell a story of what message needs to be conveyed. There is no pattern that one sees. If the same card pops ups in multiple readings that obviously means something. There’s a 0.002% chance of getting the same card 3 times when doing tarot readings after shuffling each time. There are also certain cards that never come up for me in personal readings because that energy is simply not mine but when other people do readings it comes up for them. They’ve actually given me and a lot of people a lot of guidance in terms of making decisions and has helped me connect more with myself. It’s not really a novelty thing. But if you don’t believe then that’s that.

I'm a little surprised they didn't mention their justifications. I have seen some episodes of Long Island Medium and you can tell by the way she talks about what's important that she thinks it's okay because she's giving people closure, and they believe it and feel better. I dunno, artificial though it may be, that's why people buy it. Finding closure on your own takes longer and is harder, so if they wanna pay instead, that's kind of their choice. Tough subject imo.
