I am looking for routines like Quick Coincidence and Gypsy Curse that intermix card magic with fourtune-telling. Also I am open to any ideas you may have.

I haven't seen it in a while, but "The Temple of Shiva" by Lennart Green would probably fit the bill. That's a wild trick. It's on one of the Green Magic DVD's but I don't remember which.

There's a great trick by Bob Neale, I think it's called the Plague. It uses a deck of Tarot cards and is pretty spooky. Also David Parr has an EXCELLENT trick about werewolves in his book Brain Food.

I believe there's an item called "Tell My Fortune" in the Close-Up Card Magic section of LORAYNE: THE CLASSIC COLLECTION, VOL. 1. HL

I do have the book Brain Food and as I was looking thru it..the routine Future Shock looks promising. Thanks for bringing up Mr. Parr's book.

There's a nice routine on Jorg Weber's FFFF Lecture notes.

Look up Simon Aronson's Past, Present and Future in Simply Simon: it uses a memorized deck and it's a killer.

This is a possibility:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUZ3U-5ACWE&feature=channel But with playng cards, if you can find it, John Mendoza's "A Reading" from the Mendoza Series of Personal Instruction is a showcase effect. As a coincidence effect, a routine based on the latter, "Cards of Coincidence" is one of the best routines in the recent Nick Trost book. Paul. |

David Parr also has The Game of Life and Death. Not exactly fortune telling but a game with the devil where your future is determined....

I'd also suggest doing some reading up on Fortune telling with cards, With a little knowledge you can add in some fortune elements to any trick.

There is a chapter called Future Shocks in the upcoming Little Egypt Book of Ghosts that covers several entertaining schemes for telling fortune with cards. (These include an expanded version of the "60-Second Card Reading" that appeared and found favor in The Little Egypt Book of Numbers.) That said, Harry Lorayne is correct; it's hard to top the routine he mentioned from Classic Collection I.

Another vote for Simon Aronson's Past, Present, Future - a real miracle.
