Having read about several progressive anagram type mental effects to find out a
Zodiac / Star sign from a spectator either as an effect itself or a lead into a reading of
some kind, we have found this to be one of the most effective ways of going about it
without pumping the spectator.

Star signs and astrology are big business and it’s a great ice breaker to be able to tell
someone their star sign without too many questions and for the budding mentalists
arsenal of effects it’s a must have effect!

We have included in this script a full flowchart that will make the routine easy to
learn with minimal fuss. Also included is a full overview of the star signs and
information that goes with them. Giving you the information to deliver not only their
star sign but also a full insight into their inner being, creating an emotional hook and
connecting with your spectator. Put this with our Cold Reading System with Playing
Cards and you will have a very dangerous weapon in your performing repertoire.

The Method:-

We begin by telling the spectator that they need to concentrate on their star sign while
you the performer will attempt to read their mind and find out which star sign they
are.
As you begin, you tell your spectator that you will be picking up on the letters in the
star sign. As you progress you get pictures flashing into view or at least parts of
pictures this is because you only get brief snapshot the images in your mind as they
come and go as you try to pick up on their thoughts.

The flowchart on the next page shows how the questioning begins start with the
“I think I am getting the letter A.” The circle with the A in starts the flowchart

If you look at flowchart, your patter could go something like this for the star sign
Capricorn

“I want you to concentrate on your star sign. Forget about everything else in the room,
just focus on your star sign”

SPECTATOR CONCENTRATES

“Right let me try to connect with your thoughts; I think I am getting the letter A!”

SPECTATOR ANSWERS “Yes”

The next sentence is said off the cuff and as a throwaway comment
If they answer yes then you finished, as it will be either Aquarius or Sagittarius.

“Was that two A’s?”

SPECTATOR ANSWERS “No!”

“Ok that’s I sometimes get a little confused with the images flashing in my mind, but
I do get a picture of an Animal!”
Now this serves two purposes here, firstly if they say yes you can use this as where
you got the two A’s from (AnimAl), I have found that this can hammer the fact
deeper that you are reading their mind! Secondly, if they say “no” you are finished as
their star sign will be Libra.

SPECTATOR ANSWERS “Yes”

“Yes an animal, it is becoming clearer now I get horns, animal horns!”

“I am also getting a letter S?”

SPECTATOR ANSWERS “No”

“Sorry I do have lots of images flashing up in my mind from you, this tells me that
you are very focused and can be quite intense at times, these qualities are only found
in Capricorns!”

SPECTATOR FAINTS! The audience claps and go wild, for you are a person of your
word, without any pumping you have indeed divined your spectators star sign.

Now if you get a NO! The first thing to do is not panic, as we are trying to read a
thought. All you need to do is remember this NO = POSITIVE ANSWER

i.e.
“Yes, I did not get that as clear as I should have, I must learn not to rush”
“Yes, I only practiced this a few times, Sometimes I get far too excited”
“Yes, Can we try closing our eyes, this will make concentrating easier”
“Yes, though I guess you are so creative I am getting many images at once.”

Ways for revealing the star sign when you are left with two choices

1. “Do you know what my first thought was when I saw you?”
….Now call out one of the two possible star signs and just wait for the reaction of the
spectator.
If they react positively, you know you are right. Take your credit gracefully.

If there is no positive verbal or non-verbal reaction, wait and say:

“Though in the meantime, I have received your personal impression and I know that
your star sign is …..”
Name the second sign.

2. “Ah very interesting! You will never believe this! I tell you what my personal star
sign is.”
Now just call out one of the two signs.
If they react positively, you know you are right. Take your credit gracefully.
If there is no positive verbal or non-verbal reaction, wait and say:
“I have heard that this star sign gets on very well with …...”
Name the second sign.

3. “I am getting very clearly.”

You then take a business card, piece of paper, billet and write down one of the two
possibilities. Do not let your spectators see what you write. Look deep into your
spectator’s eyes and call out the star sign that is not written down. If the spectator says
“Yes!” simply, put the card away. If the spectator says “No!”, place the card written
side down onto the table or the spectators hand, ask them for their star sign, and watch
their faces when they turn the cards over!

4. Write down both signs on a business card etc. Again, do not let the spectator see
this. Then have your spectator call out their star sign and simply cross out the wrong
one using a nail writer / boon writer / swami gimmick.

5 Using a himber style wallet have your star signs written on cards so once you tell
the spectator what their star sign is you can prove you knew this by taking out your
business card and showing them the sign on the back. This makes for an excellent
way to get your business card into the hands of a spectator.

The zodiac signs, also known as "sun signs" indicate which sector the sun was in at the
time of birth. The zodiac itself is the path of the Earth's orbit around the sun.

Signs of the Zodiac

The signs of the zodiac follow a pattern that never changes Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer,
Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces. The sun is always in
one sign or another; it can never be in two signs at the same time. Each of these twelve
signs represents certain positive as well as negative characteristics in human behavior.

These twelve signs are thirty-degree segments of the zodiac and are associated with four
elements: fire, earth, air, water, and three modalities: cardinal, fixed and mutable.

We have all twelve-zodiac signs in our horoscope, and their effect is determined by the
position of the planets in the signs and the interaction between the zodiac signs and the
houses of the horoscope. On the following pages, you will find some information that you
can study and use along with Astromental.
