"Arcana is grounded in the real world - tarot instantly creates meaning and personal connection. Beneath that, David has built an ingenious system that allows you to perform direct, impossible mind reading with ease. Please use responsibly!" - Adam Dadswell
"Arcana is beyond gorgeous. David Peace makes magic I fall in love with. Completely legitimate in appearance, but hiding a devilish amount of secrets. Super easy to learn, fun to perform, and best of all... it makes you feel like a genuine mind-reader." - Jake Keane
"Arcana is the mentalists tool that looks just as at home on a coffee table, as it does coming out of a jacket pocket at a gig. It hides classic mentalism secrets that no layperson will discover. They can use it to generate their own 'tarot' readings all night long, and yet, when you are ready to strike, you are able to reveal not only the order of their Tarot cards, but the word they are thinking of. This is well worth the time and practice to add to your repertoire!" - Joe Diamond
Arcana by David Peace is everything you'd want in a strong mentalism effect. It feels deeply personal and leaves your audience convinced you can see right through them (spoiler alert: you can’t).
Your participant opens a book of tarot readings to any page, a genuinely free choice (don’t worry, we’ll make sure they don’t pick the boring one). They call out their 3 cards in any order they fancy, yet you instantly know which card is their past, their present, and their future!
But wait, there’s more! You can have them think of a word from the readings section on that same page or any other (because who doesn’t love a bit of variety?), and thanks to the long word principle, you can reveal that too!
When you get Arcana, you’ll learn how to perform this routine in a way that makes your audience feel like you’ve just read their life story (cue the dramatic music). Alternatively, for those of you who fancy a psychological twist, you’ll discover how to use Arcana to show your audience that those so-called "Psychics" are really just reading body language like it’s an open book (which it kinda is).
This book has been designed to be easy to carry, fitting in perfectly with your working set or as an everyday carry that actually makes sense (no, you don’t need another fidget spinner).
Arcana comes complete with the book, a crib, and detailed instructions that are easier to follow than your mate’s drunken ramblings.
