I don't care about this stuff.. how much memory work is involved? I don't want to fish, I would just like to get an understanding of what level of skill or memory work needed ☺️


Judging from the trailer, some of the usual ploys are employed here in order to figure out the correct one of a possible few. It would seem that is the extent of fishing and I assure you, if that's the extent of it, to the audience there would appear to be no fishing at all and would very much appear that you assertively hit whatever you're hitting.

Good business/ bad business is somewhat academic, this will sell out fast.

This really is a thing of beauty which is why I was one of those pushing Pete to release this. I also pushed him to name it IS3, Pete was going to call it something else because the only similarity this has to Isobella's Star is that you can nail the sign and date of birth with 100% accuracy 100% of the time. This isn't self working, there is a small amount of effort involved to get to Pete's level of proficiency but it is well within every bodies reach. This is probably my all time favourite propless effect.

Agreed. Mine too. And the work is a lot less than, say, memorising a stack. Hope that gives some idea of the scale.

(I meant a stacked deck - some stacks are of course really simple!)

There is memory work but it's not imposing -

If you struggle with your memory, save the bit you struggle with as the wallpaper on your phone and use it as a crutch whilst performing and after rinsing and repeating this it becomes second nature.

It's so easy to do with nothing in your pockets that it's worth learning the principles required to achieve this.

Have you been given a transaction number by PayPal? If yes it's been received, if you are worried tell me your details I can search it out.

Hey guys,

After having learned this from Peter himself 2 weeks ago in person, and reading the book, I can tell you, you are in for a real treat.

For those that asked about being translated into other language, I think its possible,

I am currently working through being able to do it in Spanish. Out of town on business in NYC and havent had time to think about the translations, soon though.

Thanks

Peter just performed the current version of this for my over Skype and man oh man, this is so beautiful.

He nailed the starsign, name, and exact date I was thinking of 3 times in a row each time in less than 2 minutes.

I just wanted to say that this will read as a lot on paper because of how involved the process is for the performer. However in performance, it literally takes about 90 seconds from start to end.

This is really something special and as far as I'm concerned, this is the final destination of birthdate revelation. I don't see how it could get any better than this.

Peter is a madhouse when it comes to creating. Never hesitate to get something with his name on it.

Having gotten a sneak peek at the release (I received it at 6:45 AM) I have read through it, memorized it, and performed it on my girlfriend and nailed all the information. (It is now 11:20 AM and I've had class so this is about 2 or 3 hours worth of time.)

Peter actually gives an option to do this without Starsigns and this is my preferred method because generally, people I perform for don't know their starsign or they know very little about it. Peter provides a solid foundation for how to do this without starsigns, but I have adapted it ever so slightly to fit me a bit more. Essentially, in Peters "nonstarsign" method, you still ask about their starsign. I eliminated that by asking a bit of a different and casual question. If you do it this way, you don't have to memorize anything about Tj starsigns (which is where a large majority of this memory work is.) As is, I performed it with my girlfriend creating a fictitious person with a name and birthdate to "make it more difficult" and I revealed their name and birthdate.

I honestly love this and will use it for a very long time. It's too good to pass up. I GENUINELY believe this release should cost way more than it does. Pete has put a lot of work into it and it shows. It is a brilliant piece which I will have on hand for those propless situations.

Don't hesitate to buy this while you can!

I think star signs is all a load of twaddle

But even so - I thought everyone knew their own star sign

By everyone I mean 99% or more - and even though I am sure most know it all to be rubbish - I still thought they would know their own sign

Is what Maddison wrote correct - that a lot of people do NOT know their signs [?]

I guess Maddison's target group are US college kids - even so I would have thought all the girls [and most the boys] would know their own sign

Has anyone else found that a lot of people don't know their signs [?]

My son is 18 and had never heard of star signs. I discovered this when trying to perform IS3 for him a couple of days ago.
I had him ask a few friends. Most were unaware. The girls seemed to be slightly more knowledgeable than the boys.

For star signs, personally I always use a female spectator. Most females, in the US at least, knows their star sign.

Another note, when you're asking someone if they know their star sign, additionally add a line along the lines of "like leo, gemini, pisces." For those in the know, if you use those three lines, you can sometimes gauge the situation and get a free hit without going deeper (those that know would understand what I mean). The main purpose of such a line however is in case a person never referenced star signs by the term 'star signs.'

Totally just my experience. Plus in the rural town I'm from, everyone stayed away from Star Signs. They just aren't common place.

Essentially, the good news is, of you want to use star signs, you can. If you don't like to include it in your work, you don't have to.

Also, if you learn both methods, you could perform IS3 for the person even if they don't know their star sign.

I think it is age dependent. All those I've asked over 30 knew what it was.
But Peter gives you options so really not an issue.
IS3 still causes jaws to drop.

If it's a video, a pillow case with Pete's face on it, whatever it is...it's an incentive and a kindness..

The base thing you are buying, in this case, a book... The additional stuff that Pete gives as a gift is entirely his to make...it's probably his way of saying thanks...

It is a seperate thing to the product being sold...


If there's a pillowcase with Pete's face on it I'm in. Could I have one with love hearts around the face? And maybe a unicorn. And a rainbow.
