Research Experiment #1: Prediction
Calling all people who are willing to try a prediction experiment -
I AM NO LONGER OFFICIALLY DOING THIS EXPERIMENT, however I encourage people to give it a try and report on it here to each other. I'll check in occasionally but as I'll be traveling a lot I may not be here often.
1) Ask a question about something where you will soon have a definitive result but which result cannot be controlled by either the querent or reader. (Soon can be a few hours or a couple of weeks.)
2) Use any spread you want (give deck, position meanings & cards).
3) Give a clear-cut, unambiguous prediction that answers your question. This prediction must be a short, single, precise answer (yes/no or a specific, verifiable fact). You can add a short commentary.
4) Report back on what actually happened. Please put the word "Result" in the final post Title and refer back to your original post number found on the bottom right (and any other clarifying posts).
We're looking for how accurate a reading can be in unambiguously predicting specific future events that are not under the control of either querent or reader.
Periodically I, or someone else, can tally up the results and summarize them. You can participate as many times as you'd like.
I should note that when doing this experiment in my tarot classes that we average only a 50% success rate or very slightly higher. Given my own results I personally don't offer these kinds of readings for money. Still, I've found that some people are better at them than others. Furthermore, the experiment might give us information about what works or doesn't work in readings.
