Ran Pink
THE ZEN SYSTEM
$40

THE BLURB:
Life is filled with hidden messages and meaningful omens.
The mentalist offers guidance in the form of the ZEN SYSTEM,
combining different oracles into a momentary message from
the subconscious. With no questions asked, the mentalist
reveals the participant's Zodiac sign. He then continues to
give a personality reading and insights to their life and
finally reveals their actual Birth-date.

Nothing is written down, no fishing, no pumping, no
pre-show, no instant stooging or dual reality and no memory
work required for the main ZEN SYSTEM presentation.
Includes 2 custom printed ZEN SYSYTEM reference cards and a
35 page booklet describing the ins and outs of the system.
Also includes bonus effect Namerology, which can be done
impromptu, in person and over the phone.

Also Possible with the ZEN System:

- Participant uses their intuition to divine your Zodiac
sign.

- The mentalist can reveal any future date thought of, and
offers a prediction of what the participant might expect to
be going through during this time.

- The ZEN SYSTEM will enhance your memory of the Zodiac
signs and Numerology meanings. Special bonus ideas included.

Spanish Card design available by request.

"Ran has something VERY special with ZEN. I love it."
� Ben Harris

"This is a killer idea, I wish I'd thought of it!"
� Paul Carnazzo

"It seems to me that pulling someone's exact Birth Date out
of the Ethers is the ACAAN of the Psychic world. You�ve
nailed it with your ZEN system. Nothing suspicious, nothing
clumsy, and I think it�s perfect for any kind of reader�or
just as an example of dead-on Mentalism once you,
personally, know that date. Very powerful."
� Tom Jorgenson

MY COMMENTS:
Cross Ray Grismer's WHAT'S MY SIGN with one of Paul
Carnazzo's mental cards and you'll have a good idea about
what this is. In fact, Carnazzo worked with Ran Pink in
developing this.

The description doesn't really explain what it is. The
performer hands the credit-card sized ZEN card to the
participant who is instructed to find their season sign on
the card. It will be on one of two sides, two seasons per
side. Second, they are asked to find their zodiac sign,
which, again, is on one of two sides. Finally, the
participant is asked to find the element (Fire, Air, Earth,
Water) that corresponds to their sign, which, like the other
two pieces of information, will be on one of the two sides.

That's it. There are no questions asked, but there are
instructions. Once the participant has looked up all the
information on the card, the performer knows the sign.
Having secretly obtained the info, a reading can be given or
the information can simply be revealed to the participant.

This is just one phase. The second phase is determining the
actual numerical day of their birth. This involves the
participant adding a number corresponding to their element
with their birthday, doubling the sum, and reducing the
number to a single digit, which is then told to the
performer. The day can then be deduced.

The package includes two very nicely made credit-card sized
cards with full color images in on them. I was very
impressed with the quality of these cards. The first is the
ZEN card and the second is a reference card, which, if you
do this regularly, may not be necessary after a time.

Along with the cards comes the 36 page, 5.5" x 8.5"
instruction booklet. Along with the "How To" stuff, there's
also sample readings and information on how to do this over
the phone. There's also a section called "Nameology" which
replaces the zodiacal element with the number of letters in
their name. In other words, it does remove a step in the
procedure and also makes it a bit easier to do over the
phone.

The consideration to this product depends on how you feel
towards readings in general and revealing zodiac signs and
birthdays, specifically. Also, some may find this too
procedural for them, since they must follow a series of
steps before information is revealed. Pink certainly
provides enough scripting so that it can feel organic to the
participant, but I know performers who are just
uncomfortable with this type of effect. This is not a
criticism, as I'm not saying this is good or bad, but merely
something to consider when deciding on purchasing this.

Pink has put a lot of really good thought into this product
in terms of both product design and routining and, as I
said, I'm very impressed with the quality of the cards. If
this interests you, then I certainly recommend this.
