Using the random.org random number generator with numbers 0-22 and correlating them with the Tarot's Major Arcana, I can give Bitcoin a minimalist tarot card reading. Tarot cards are often used by psychics to predict the future. How well will it apply to bitcoin? Look at the days below. 2/26/2013, 5:30AM ESTThe numbers for today were 7, 18 and 22. Using these face values, that leaves us with: The Chariot https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/9/9b/RWS_Tarot_07_Chariot.jpgThe Moon http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/7/7f/RWS_Tarot_18_Moon.jpgThe Fool http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/90/RWS_Tarot_00_Fool.jpg/220px-RWS_Tarot_00_Fool.jpgMy interpretation: As shown by The Moon, there will be a moderate dip today with some stabilization trending upwards -- The Chariot indicates this balance. However, The Fool signifies that some new information may be entering the markets, changing fundamentals. 2/25/2013, 7:34AM ESTThe numbers for today were 7, 1 and 7. Using these face values, that leaves us with: The Chariot: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/9/9b/RWS_Tarot_07_Chariot.jpgThe Magician https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/de/RWS_Tarot_01_Magician.jpgThe Chariot: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/9/9b/RWS_Tarot_07_Chariot.jpgMy interpretation: The Magician often signifies great power or manipulation. There is a manipulator in our midst and there will be powerful swings in today's price. However, The Chariots in their dual form means all things will eventually come to balance once again on this day. Expect to hold the line as bitcoin stays between 29 and 31 USD in price. 2/24/2012, 9AM ESTThe numbers for today were 14, 21 and 8. Using these face values, that leaves us with: Temperance http://www.reiki-seichem.com/maj14s.gifThe World http://www.reiki-seichem.com/maj21s.gifStrength http://www.reiki-seichem.com/maj08s.gifMy interpretation: Bitcoin will go through much needed stabilization today. This will strengthen it as the world begins to acknowledge its existence. The price for today will be sideways.

I interpret the presence of boldy irrational speculators as the sucker zone. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Bulls make money, Bears make money but Pigs just get slaughtered.

The meanings in these cards are somewhat self-evident: Balance, the wholeness of the world and strength. As the Tarot tells a story, I made a story of the drawing as well within the context of Bitcoin and today's trading. So a little background: It is thought to be contemplating on the Tarot leads to divine inspiration, mainly because Tarot is another word for Torah. The whole Major Arcana is based on Biblical stories and Jewish Kabbalistic theory. The Tree of Sephiroth and such. The deck just starts with God working from ground zero as The Fool exploring himself and knowing himself through creation. The deck eventually ends with The World (or The Universe) and then The Fool again as the 22nd and 0th card. It's a cosmological cycle. A crude table of contents of the deck: http://www.yhwh.com/tarot/tarottoc.htm

I also did a reading, and I got this: Lovers in The Tower The Moon and Sun divided And The Hanged Man smiles
Lovers in The Tower The Moon and Sun divided Let The Fool decide ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVTeN4xs7Dowondering if Mr Dickinson ever heard of this thread.

This resource I find good for a general guide to standard card meanings http://www.ata-tarot.com/resource/cards/I'm enjoying seeing a Tarot thread & if you included the suit cards as well as the major arcana that may work well for day to day readings.

I'll do the Major Arcana for a few more readings. I need to order the suits and number them in order to incorporate them. I don't own any actual cards. I may just have to buy some.

You will notice today's reading has been rather accurate. Am I wrong?

It's called not even wrong.Something that is not even wrong is usually so far out of the ballpark or so far from reality that it is, quite simply, flabbergastingly irrelevant. For example: “”2 + zebra ÷ glockenspiel = homeopathy works!
