This is a really great book for anyone wanting to learn and apply cold reading. Here are a few aspects of the chapter on cold reading that I found very valuable:
- The Jack provides a sample reading you can model and adapt. I know a little about cold reading, and found this reading to be 90% accurate. The Jack explains why this is, and different ways to use the model reading, and change it for different people. He also shares a keen observation about how to make every reading highly accurate in the mind of the person for whom you are giving the reading. - A chart is provided that makes creating unique readings very easy. I'm thinking about writing the chart on a pad of paper in a folio and using it as a way to prompt me for ideas when giving a reading. There are 30 phrases on the chart, offering a very simple and practical tool for giving readings. I like this a lot. - The Drawing and Personality Interpretation provides another tool for giving simple, personalized readings that will be fun to try. - There is a section on how to give readings using any deck of playing cards. - How to give brief readings with tarot cards - How to give face readings - Names, Words, People, Characters provides a very nice and simple set of ideas for starting a reading, anytime, anywhere without any props. Like this section a lot too. Many little, and some big, tips and ideas The Jack has learned over the years are shared, which I found to be quite helpful. Over-all, very glad I bought 7 Mysteries, for the cold reading chapter alone! |

I bought The Jack's "To Lovecraft", a booktest, pegasus page routine. It is excellent thinking. Going to add this to my buying list.
