For those of you talking about a more modern looking, smaller version, it seems that Rick Lax has put out a version call Calendar, which uses the exact method but it's in the form of a horoscope pamphlet. It's become one of the #1 sellers on Penguin. I really dislike the fact that the method will be so widely known now and the routine is being watered down and lessened into a walk around "trick". I'm going to stick to using codex or Oraculum and keep the mystique that made me originally drawn to them.

Yeah, Calendar isn't what I had in mind. I've seen it and feel the method is a bit cumbersome and not at all as streamlined and "mystical" as Bobby's. I share your concern about the method getting out although other effects have used the binary system before.
At a convention of mind readers, a man sees an attractive woman he'd like to meet. He walks up to her and says, "Hello! You're Susan. Who am I?"

There are additional--and, frankly, much more cool--ways to get there with Oraculum, so at least Bobby's still has far more to offer (as if the two were even remotely comparable.) While the one shared way they both use is not original to Bobby, I do find the timing of Rick's to be annoying. The time it would take to water down the idea to a cheap trick, create the design, and get it produced puts the conception date for his a little too close to comfort to just after Bobby's release. Oh well, anything to make a buck for some, I guess. |

Has the code been broken officially or is there still time to stack the AO charts?

I recall that a cracked code would be shared with all owners. I haven't heard anything, yet. Did you find the solution? Cheers, Luc.

Can anyone help me out? I sold my Oraculum but cannot find the instructions (can't even remember if they were pdf or hard copy). If they were pdf can you PM me. Thank you.

Any news on this? Could it be a magical square in some way?

I forgot all about this, Any news on the code?
Also, was there going to be a tarot designed for this?

I spoke with Bobby recently and he shared that the tarot deck is still in the works. It took a handful of years to bring Oraculum to bear, so we know Bobby does not rush products to market until they have reached perfection.
As Oraculum sold out, his website is in a deep slumber, much like the chrysalis. When it wakes up, there will be a new winged creature that will take flight ... a phoenix, or perhaps a hippogriff. I do know there are several products he hopes to release later this year. I have already begun to ferret away money. Bobby assured me the puzzle has not been cracked. At least, no one has contacted him to so he can confirm it is cracked. Tick tock... |

Great to hear that Oraculum finally sold out. And rightfully so!
I'm very much looking forward to the cards. Cheers, Luc. |

I guess I better start saving too, as I always look forward to Bobby's creations and it has been awhile waiting now!
