My fortune teller told me "You will win a billion dollars if you..." then didn't tell me the other half until i provided my social security number. Odd but, i will be rich soon...
Can I have a couple thousand once you get rich?
Yuki Whedbee sure, just need you to send me your credit card number and bank information so I can preform the transaction.
***** (They were kidding ( Just saying ) )
Okay, we'll just enter your social security number for a billion dollars and.. its gone.
What was the second half?
Almost one year later. Make the participants rewatch this and comment!
yes!
Up up up!!!

The thing about tarot cards, or any sort of psychic reading, is that the cards help guide the conversation, but it's not magical. A good tarot reader will get you thinking on your own life and what direction you want to take it in, not try to "predict your future". Predicting the future is impossible, everyone knows that, but most psychics worth their salt are good at reading people, and in a very short time will tell people what they think they might need to hear.
You can do it somewhat, but she didn't do it right, so yeah that's what she was doing.
Yep. That's what I was told about them as well.
Selina Aguilar yeah true! Also she says what they want to hear by their faces and how they judge stuff like if you said something and they made a slight disgusted face it means you don't like it so they say something else right?
The keyword being need, of course. That's what people don't get. It's basically a method of figuring yourself out without trying to be in denial. It isn't actually telling your future. In fact, most spreads have nothing to do with the future at all. Most spreads I've seen relate to your current self.
So it's like therapy?
I LOVE the fact that she says 'possible future'.
yas.
I swear, when she said "possible future", it was just exactly the thing which I noticed and the then everything that she said later sounded more believable.
Lav & the gamer future, read by a psychic or not, can change all the time
As a tarot, reader,what I will say, is that the term "fortune teller" is misleading for tarot readers. "Mystic advice" is more accurate.
Lucas Ong I prefer the term "liar"
The moving to LA one applies to like 50% of people in LA
That's what I was thinking!!!
true. but he could have been born there too
Erin Matthew hence 50%
Behross Faroughi I know, but if she was just guessing that would have been bad odds to get it right. If it's 50% likely he was born there and she just took the chance to say he moved, I just think it would be too risky to get it wrong you know?
I was just thinking the same thing.
They tell the person something vague, something that can apply to many people. Derren Brown (a great mentalist) once did an experiment where he wrote down a description of 5 or so different people lives. What they didn't know is that each of these descriptions were exactly the same, and he has written something so vague that they turned it into something they thought was very personal.
Buzzfeed actually did the same thing on another video.
ua-cam.com/video/sfsE7w1zZKY/v-deo.html&feature=iv&src_vid=T4-FDOT-4fA&annotation_id=annotation_3011059707
like this video on buzzfeed. i mean is exactly what you explained.
yep, same thing with zodiacs
they really trick their victims don't they!
Artoria Pendragon i don't know if you're being sarcastic but "southern blonde and petite" is incredibly vague considering it's not even describing a real human being, but some theoretical human being that they could run into or not run into.
so the medium admits that it's just "one possible future". so literally all they said was "it is possible that you will have a relationship with a blond petite girl in the future, or maybe you won't." that's not psychic powers, that's "making an educated guess about a white guy that can't even be proven wrong"
As an atheist skeptic myself, I do daily tarot card readings for myself as a means of looking further into my subconscious and analyzing my thoughts, fears, ideas, etc. They've given me revelations that I had never considered. And, it's amazing how accurate they are. No doubt that's because each card can carry numerous meanings depending on how you interpret them, but they have been a positive part of my morning ritual that I'm totally digging right now. I look forward to each session.
Yes! I used to be a Christian but I'm not practicing it anymore. I wanted to be more spiritual so I started tarot so I could be more in tune with myself.
@@blainevanity6 As a person who just got out of a religious mindset, do you think you can handle the Alistor Crowley deck? :)
It’s like doing those Myers’s Briggs tests. They have no reliability or validity, but they are interesting. Jung’s theories are fascinating. There’s nothing wrong with going into this stuff. I love it, but I wouldn’t take it as anything more than prompts for deeper exploration, much as you do.
@@bridaw8557 you should look into the i-ching as well
Jung used it extensively
Same here!
She's not actually reading the cards. She is a medium, and she keeps saying "They're showing me..." so it's the spirits giving her messages, not the cards. Tarot cards would never be as specific as to mention Annie Hall, so this video is setting up expectations of Tarot Readers that would be impossible to meet, unless they were also mediums.
Karen Grace Aung tarot cards are answers from the spirit guides in card form. She's answering exactly what the cards say which is what the spirits chose
Mandy, it's your subconscious that reads and interprets the symbology on the cards. You do not have to be psychic to read them. I've been a professional reader for over 30 years, and mainly read intuitively. When I find that mediumship is coming in during a reading, it's completely different, and I don't need the cards at all. You could read the cards if you wanted to. You can learn the meanings from any good tarot book, but you will NEVER get the messages this lady is getting unless you are a medium, That was the point of my original comment xx
Karen Grace Aung No it's not.
Oh well. I tried to help you, but obviously your mind is completely closed. Do some research and you will find I am, of course, right. As I said, 30 years experience as a psychic. How long did you say You have been a professional psychic? Then again, judging by your photo, you are very young.. So I wish you all the best, and know you will understand this when you're older and your mind is more mature xx
Lol at a cold reading charlatan getting uppity about her professionalism. You should be ashamed of yourself.
I really wanted Ned to come on and be all misleading like "Will I finally find a girlfriend this year?" and she all be like "Of course yes blah blah" and then Ned bursting out like "YOU FAKE I LOVE MY WIFE I HAVE A WIFE! MY WIFEEEEE!!"
EDIT: This did not age well guys. Aged like milk 🥛
Yasssss
***** He'd take the ring off and at the end of the video, the only thing you'd hear is a 10 minute apology monologue to his wife and how much he loves her whilst we feel guilty for not knowing what love is xD
+MySummerDragonFly What would it be like if she reacted like- whow but I see that you do have someone realy close to you (in a lovers-way) and that she means a whole lot to you in a sence of togetherness. xD
His head would just overheat xD
hahahahha that would be amazing
YES
I want Andrew to go in there with a straight face the entire time. She'll have no facial expressions to work off of.
You are just the best kind of person
You are just the best kind of person
+Kitty Kait YESSS THEY SHLD JUST MAKE ONE VIDEO OF THIS WITH ANDREW
+Kitty Kait it has nothing to do with facial expressions. So what?
Yassssss that would be hilarious about what she comes up with his facial expressions!
Being intuitive is not a spiritual power, but a human trait. She has learned to master her intuition, in a specific way.
People forget that. We all can access that kind of information. Some are just more naturally connected than others.
Yes intuition is something everyone has. And I read some of your previous comments on another comment about how Tarot and Oracle cards work. It actually upsets me that people who don't know anything about them think that it's for predicting the future or a game. It's not. I only do readings for friends and I don't read the future. If they're having a problem then I do a reading for insight into that problem and what they can do to fix it. My readings are always accurate for other people. I would never try to tell someone what their future is.
Bless this comment it's a fresh breath of insight in the clusterfuck of misinformation about tarot that is this comment section and video.
Well, I was formerly a 'skeptic,' but then my friend gave me a tarot card reading. She got a lot right about how I was feeling at the time. The most freaky part was that she told me that something bad would happen sometime in the beginning of the next week. This was on a Friday. On Monday night, my dad passed away. She hasn't touched the cards since then.
Damn
You should do something when the fortune teller tells them a persons past, you secretly tell the fortune teller about there life to creep them out. PLEASE DO IT.
Or tell the person the fortune teller's life and have them "read" the fortune teller.
Sherlock Holmes
Kimberly A. ya why dont fortune tellers ever go visit other fortune tellers? seems suspicious
Kimberly A. That's what it would take for a fortune teller to actually be accurate.
Kimberly A. I like this idea a lot.
I do a bit of tarot reading myself just casually and I feel it's more of a reflection on your life and the possible pathways your life can take rather than a future reading thing.
Exactly
asian guy turns up: "memoirs of a geisha"
okkkk
I'm pretty sure she said that they showed her that to represent a drama with an Asian backdrop
Leviosa Lily that *asian guy* is Eugene....
isnt he very popular????how is it that you dont know him??
Looking back at this in 2019 I think of Eugene in drag now aka Cheyenne Pepper
I mean he did dress up in a kimono for his music video.
Niveditha J i see this guy for the first time - only Cleaveland from Family was familiar to me.
Hey cold reading! Interesting how she told the nerdy girl that she needs to get out more, Eugene is an attractive guy who gets a lot of things about girls in his cards, as soon as the guy looks skeptical about her saying he'd date multiple women she backpedals.
Thank you for playing, but this was entirely see-through.
Yeah, I'm not impressed with how many of these tarot 'skeptic' videos usually have a crappy reader. I read tarot myself and I have put a *LOT* of effort into studying it, from the imagery, to the symbolism, the four elements, the numerology, the body language of the characters and how each cards link together etc... It really disappoints me because it creates a certain perception of tarot in peoples' minds. I have been reading for around 9 months now and I still spend hours studying and practicing each day. One thing I will say though, is I don't believe tarot cards predict the future because nothing is set in stone. I hate the fortune telling stereotype.
deductive reasoning time:
your future is unknown
your future is manipulated by what you do
what you believe manipulates what you do
what you learn can manipulate what you believe
therefore, your future is ultimately manipulated by what you learn
therefore, if before this reading, what she said was their future, it is now ultimately manipulated
this is master manipulation, not being psychic
P1: Ok, it's fairly axiomatic
P2: Tautological...
P3: Invalid; hypothetically speaking, if I believed in God, would it effect my decision of going to work tomorrow, in comparison to an atheist? I think not.
Since premise three fails, the argument is not sound. Therefore, the argument is a non-sequitur; try again.
I don't know what to change my name to its much more complex than just going to work or not, cuz its regular routine so yea
awesomesep Then it's not valid in this argument.
So fine. Defend your third premise.
if you believe something bad will happen to you at work, it decreases the chance of you going, if you believe something good would happen, it would increase the chances of you going
I don't know what to change my name to Really?! Because *that* (stupid btw) example doesn't apply you're dismissing it?!
You do know that anyone can find *something* to oppose any argument, it's what we've been doing our entire lives, actually!! I agree with awesomesep what you believe manipulates what you do!!
''Asian movie'' for the Asian guy, ''not enough fun'' for the girl in glasses, no make up and a button up shirt, ''Annie Hall'' for the guy who is literally wearing Woody Allen glasses, ''big move to the city'' for the most reserved, wholesome looking dude and ''you're just starting out in life'' for the young, bubbly girl who herself described herself as a ''hot mess''. She really must be magic!
Haha! Exactly!
+imakefoodhappen Exactly. Pure b.s
Lol right, it's called a cold reading. Proof psychics are fake
+imakefoodhappen YESSSSSSSSSS mate, took the words out of my mouth, you must also be magic LOL
+imakefoodhappen Yeah, like surprise surprise, someone working at BuzzFeed moved to LA to make it big. And the plainly dressed girl in glasses wants an intellectual guy. Totally mystical powers at work here.
2015: "memoirs of a geisha" eugene
2019: *comes out as gay*
It was obvious he was gay tbh
In a kimono!!
@@llunavermella_bloodmoon nahhh! I never thought he was gay and I am
I had my cards read and there were just too many specifics that the reader mentioned. She guessed my name, my mum's name, my dad's middle name. She talked about my mum's death (which she didn't know had happened) and really deep worries that I had but had never mentioned to anyone. I still to this day have no explanation for how she could've known the things she did.
Did you getting a reading over the phone? If so all the specifics you mention would have been easy to get, including your mother's death.
Eugene is Korean. Geishas are Japanese. The casting would be unfortunate if he was put in a Japanese movie. I'm pretty sure the "psychic" just took from the fact he's Asian.
The main actor from the movie was actually chinese, so I wouldn't be surprised.
+Sage Mirei She just mentioned the movie, as a reference to tie in to what she meant. I don't think she meant it literally. She did say 'an Asian country' which left it quite open.! :)
+Sage Mirei yes, but hollywood frequently takes random asians and pretends they're other asians. so it's very possible that eugene could be in a japanese movie.
what about the kpop drama thing Eugene did?
+Sage Mirei What if it was something about Kisaeng's , and she mistook it for Geisha?
She starts off kind of vague then based off their reactions she fine tunes it.
Yep, cold reading, éh!
Kalen Mcbride Cold reading requires some skill and luck. But looking at someones social media profile beforehand is a sure fire way to get stuff right.
Mr A bomb yes it is! I could see that being used for this easily. All it takes is a post of they're activities and you can magically know that they like "blah blah" and when they posted it.
Kalen Mcbride My brother got his cards readed too and I can told you that its not about cold reading. Holy Shit, actually one of their predictions came true. The reader not only "guessed" things about him. She actually guessed things that even my brother didn't know about me. Really specific things :|
Cold reading. It's called cold reading.
Meh, she's cold reading. Anyone with enough sense can do this.
not really
Well you don't need to be a card reader to say to a girl with glasses and no make up: go out and have more fun!
And when she asks the black girl if she does zumba, she goes into panic mode and says, that she loves swing dancing to cover up she missed it by miles...
There are analytical psychologists who can say the same things without some cards...
Anyone can do this because they're just making up stuff. Anything phsycic/spiritual/hypnotic is absolute garbage.

@@danswantarot4946 To clarify, I don't think tarot is total bumpkiss; I do think tarot can tell you about the possible directions your life can take, and, helps you sort through your mess of emotions like an old friend talking to you with sound advice. I just think this particular video showed really bad cold reading.
Telling people want they want to hear using stereotypes, educated guesses, and leading questions.
+SelfAwarePedant ding, ding, ding!!! we have a winner
She never explained the cards one by one.
nooo why would you think that it's not like she mentioned a geisha asian film to the asian, journalism to the buzzfeed article writer or going out more (but not in an insulting way) to the girl who doesnt wear makeup and looks kind of nedy casual...wait...
+Nephele PaintsTheRain EXACTLY. SHE'S COLD READING
+Nephele PaintsTheRain
Or the woody allen film to the most sterotypical jewish guy on the set
Eugene was having none of this. When the woman said she thinks he'll settle down in the valley and he expressed disgust, she immediately backpedaled and said "i'm not sure what i'm seeing. it FEELS like that." She obviously is cold reading and is not even very good at it. Everything she says is based off of the other person's reaction. Everything is very vague and easy to guess from a quick conversation as well as applicable to most people. She tells them what she thinks they want to hear
She's seeing the Valley as a basic interpretation, it doesn't necessarily mean the Valley, but something similar to it.
"it feels like it could be the valley" is an interpretation, implying "I could also be feeling something that's just similar to the valley". And that wasn't backpedaling, it was reassuring him and reminding him that being psychic doesn't give a %100 clear image.
@@GreenEcheveria Then what good is being psychic and paying exhorbitant prices to see one?
@@terithar one way to look at it is people pay good money for entertainment. Some like to go to concerts, theaters, some want to go nascar, disneyland, comedy shows, broadway others actually enjoy psychics/tarot readings. Everyone of us has psychic abilities including you. For some it comes naturally, others have to work hard to attain it. Sadly for most us our minds and hearts are blocked from attaining this ability usually by societal standards, or specific indoctrinations. I'm a tarot reader and developing my psychic abilities. My job isn't to make someone believe. I just relay the messages I receive in hopes that it will help them along in their life journey. It is up to the client to believe and of their own free will choose which path they want to take. The choice is always yours.
@@terithar You could always buy a deck yourself and learn how to use it. There are cheap alternitaves, and if it's a one-off thing, why not get a cheap Rider Waite deck? You don't have to go to a full on psychic
"This is possible future." So then you're a possible psychic. And those cards are possibly just ink on paper and nothing else.
Yeah, well some people believe in it. I wouldn't state your opinion around here, people get quite aggressive! 😂
Jack Montoya lol just think of it as images that bring you feels and you go off intuition. it's understanding the card and feeling it out. pretty much it. more or less to make people feel secure and help them make the choice to be happy.
2picklebunnies What are they going to do ? Type at you in CAP'S ?
Jack Montoya That's how this works, seeing into the future with complete clarity is nearly impossible, and has never been demonstrated by a legitimate psychic, it's only pretenders like the Long Island Medium that say thing with surety.
if youve seen or know what the movie "the secret" is about i feel like this plays into it. (also if you believe in it) but i feel like the universe will ultimately control everything you want.
ex... if you like tarot card A youll make it happen kinda thing, but if you dont like card B than you probably will tell the universe, "that is not happening"
you came to LA with a dream... YEAH GOOD JOB SO DID EVERY SINGLE PERSON WHO WENT TO LA
that is the whole point. use statements that the quarent can agree with. a perfect example is the question: You are not a dog person, are you? if the quarent answers yes: you guessed it right. if they answer no, you were also correct!
lmaooo and ''you're making your own way in the world'' oh really??????
The fact that Zach just came out w his secret relationship and this was around a couple of months before he met her (he met her 2 & a half years ago I believe that’s what he said) so she was right ! 😭❤️
I was raised in a spiritual family, and so I was raised knowing about and seeing Tarot readings. This seemed very, very fake most of the time...
***** Too right!
+Amaya Aoi Same here. Divination is just too open-ended and there can be too many variables to account for. Not worth the headache. Also, that woman is a fake. I know. I used to be one too. I recognised many of the same methods I used to cold-read people. I was damn good. Never charged any money. I've almost gotten beat up a few times too for being too right. xD
I'm Wiccan and honestly... This seems fake. Like I saw one of my favourite singers, Kelela, get her cards read by, I think, a British man, and her reading and the process they went through seemed more authentic and genuine than this. I mean, the woman cried at the end of her reading for goddess sake. I don't know, this seems like getting answers from a personality quiz rather than a serious reading
***** Obviously I've stopped fake-reading people. I wasn't even pagan back then, but was Christian (or rather, I was faking being a christian to please my family/mother). Now, idgaf and I have converted to the belief-system that makes the most sense to my heart and soul. Obviously, I'm pagan now.
+Tess Marie if you could call her a medium at all that is lol
I'm a huge skeptic, but I got my palm read in Jamaica on vacation. I gave the dude 20 bucks cash and just sat down and he read my hand. He was able to tell me my exact date of birth, AND my mothers. There is no way he could have attained such information because I didnt pay with debit, credit, etc and gave him no ID, or form of personal identification. I won't completely write off people who practice these arts, because some things just can't be debunked through deductive reasoning. I know some (perhaps like the woman in the video) are giving generalizations to people based on hints they pick up on prior to the reading, but I can't say it's not possible. I always tell people about my story, just as a reminder that there are spiritual unknowns out there. And just because they sound ludicrous doesn't necessarily make them untrue.
It is true. I had it done on holy fix u.
omw to jamaica lmfaooo i wish i could experience that
I believe some psychics, but I don't believe the one in this video at all
Similar thing happened to me in West Africa.
Plot twist her bday was tattooed on her wrist 😆
My teacher once asked me "do you know your future??" I said "No" she then said "if you dont know your future how can you possibly imagine that a stranger with a deck of cards know it??" I live by her philosophy ever since.
It's just a guess and a generalization that most people can relate to. There's another buzzfeed video where people take a personality test and they all get the same results, but everyone strongly related to their results because it was so general, which is what I feel that tarot card reading is like.
That's not how it works.
then how does it work
Mr. Peanut Likely anything I tell you won't make sense, or will be actively dismissed immediately upon reading. Have I summed you up correctly? Or, are you actually curious? I got no time for asshats. So, you need to convince me you're not before I even consider giving you more attention.
HeartOfSky I genuinely am curious, my philosophy is that you can convince me of anything with sufficient evidence
Tarot cards only work if you know the cards and have some kind of connection with them. Just my opinion and from my experience.
I like ur profile picture :)
Thanks and I like yours. ^^
True
i want that buzzfeed makes a video where there are differen kinds of psychic, mediums, readers go and read 1 person about about the same subject (personallity or future etc.) So we can see the different kinds of anwers there people give about the same subject of the same person. because i always feel a little bit skeptical when i see these type of videos.
+Alice Nguyen YES! YES! YES! Comparison of different readings for the same person.
Agreed. I’ve seen several tarot readings before, and read about readings, and most of them did not involve psychic/medium interpretation.
YES YES YES
The thing is, tarot cards aren't meant for future telling since future is never set in stone. The cards are always right but the future always changes
Right! ✅
WHEN SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT ZACH'S NEW LOVER, SHE EXPLAINED ME PERFECTLY AND IM SO EXCITED
Coincidence.
+Iggleboy12 dont crush my dreams pls
+ramseylikesthegalaxy k
+ramseylikesthegalaxy but he's so HAIRY 😖
Bobby Wolgast I, honestly, can't say anything to defend that fact
She's not reading the cards, she's reading the people. Their outfit, their demeanors, their reactions, all kinds of subtle clues. Plus some guesses, cold reading, picking up on subtle feedback and misdirection. Notice how she tells wallflower girl to get out more and nerd guy he's gonna find a relationship?
-"3 AM is your writing time!" "I'm usually asleep at 3 AM!" [Drops subject] Of course, it could always mean 3 AM >>should
Because he come as that, she's just really good at reading people.
She isn’t even reading the cards she’s reading the people.
😆👏
Its funny because tarot actually can be magical. Personally my cards will fly out if spirit wants to answer and i often get triple digits. Lol. Lots of fake spiritual people out here who probably call themselves witches 😷
@Ellie Masters good analysis
april 26, 2016: zach is still single af
lol trueee😂😂
May, 27th .....Still single af.
june 28 still single af
did she just describe Ella for Zach?
August: 28
single AF
It is so obvious that this is complete bs considering the fact at the beginning the reader said "this is a possible future" anything you can possible imagine is a possible future....
gameguy8101 I see what you're saying, but usually when they say that, it means that you shouldn't wait around shaping your life on what these cards are saying, but this is an outcome that is likely to happen if you continues on the path you're on, but of course the future can change so it's more just getting your head out the gutter and letting you know what is possible. And if you choose a different path, your cards will read differently. But if you don't believe it, you don't believe it, but can't hurt to explain it a little :)
gameguy8101 Nothing is set in stone, you manifest your fate. The main point is that it will use the possible, current, and past paths to help determine the one with the most positive outcome. With the placebo effect, it will help manifest the ideal path.
Can she tell us if Zayn will get back with the band???
I am a baby witch getting into tarot, and I read my sisters tarot, and she said “your just a confused little girl trying to act like your some magical fairy when in reality you are just a simple boring girl.” And I did not let that put me down and I still continue tarot with an open mind and lots of confidence!
I hope your journey is going well
Why would she say that? Simple boring girls LOVE tarrot, duh. but judgy mean girls- those are the ones who are boring. Literally, you can find them anywhere on any day. They're as common & unspecial as toe lint
That must have been awful having someone like that in your life. Hopefully things are better now and you never have to see her again.
Your sister has a lot of hate in her to be saying such things when you're just trying something you are interested in. I hope you are doing well and found good progess.
Sounds like she was projecting her insecurities onto you. Us girls should stick together, not compete with eachother.
Zach, I'm a girl from the midwest, I'm coming for you lol
this sounds like a threat
+Natalie Gaul lmao
i am also from the Midwest and i have light hair so i was like Omg it is me haha XD
Phrasing. Boom!
Emily wade ur not petite tho lmaoo
I'm going to write a really long comment tearing all of these "predictions" apart.
"This is a _possible_ future. The way I read is like you get information from 'higher' and you do with it what you choose to."
-Immediately writes off any responsibility for incorrect predictions. Which doesn't make it a prediction, really.
"They keep showing me Annie Hall..."
-This is an easily drawn conclusion, considering he quite clearly styles himself to look like Woody Allen's character from Annie Hall. She probably paired that with an off-hand comment he made about romance or dating. An impressive "prediction," but still easy to fake.
"You're going to be in a dramatic Asian film."
-First of all, wow, way to pigeonhole the Asian guy. And secondly, he lives in Los Angeles, works for an internet show ,and dresses fashionably, obviously one of his interests would be the possibility of appearing in a successful feature film.
"I feel like you moved to Los Angeles, and you were like 'oh my god, I'm doing it, and everyone said, 'are you sure you wanna go there, it's a dangerous place!'"
-Most people who live in LA have moved there from elsewhere. Not an astounding revelation.
-He's clearly a nervous guy, not too much of a jump to think he'd be nervous about moving to a new city.
-EVERYONE'S friends and family pull that "Are you sure you want to move" schtick, because they CARE. Duh.
"I see dancing, do you Zumba?"
"No, I swing dance..."
"OH I LOVE SWING DANCING."
-The art of distraction. If she gets a "divination" wrong, she focuses on flattering the person in order to distract from her incorrect prediction.
"You do handwritten hand-journaling..."
-She works for Buzzfeed, probably majored in journalism or a related field, and most aspiring journalists keep handwritten journals.
"They're saying you should get out more. You need to have more fun. More 'Sex in the City,' less 'work, homework, home.'"
-She's wearing a plain button-up shirt, glasses, has unstyled hair, and does not wear makeup. Likely a work-minded person. Easy conclusion.
"I see building up the home... in the valley, maybe..."
"The valley, UGH..."
"I'm not sure what I'm seeing, it just feels like that."
-An easy excuse to hide a blunder.
"You'll be dating more than one..."
He makes an uncomfortable face
"You don't usually do that, it's new to you."
-Reading his expression in order to make up a new "prediction" about his personality. Easy enough if you're good at picking up on social queues.
Her "predictions" were not remotely impressive. They're just generalizations and conclusions she came to from very basic observations she made of them.
It's not that difficult.
I still cannot comprehend why people buy into this stuff.
I KNOW RIGHT? Some people are just so dumb to waste money getting their "future" predicted.
Lynne the Trendy Tetraodontiforme
Exactly. This lady seems like a total fraud to me.
Lynne the Trendy Tetraodontiforme ... ok? and?
she does this for fun. people see her for fun. it's completely harmless, it's not like she's saying "if you keep giving me money i promise on my mom's grave that you will get rich and marry a beautiful spouse and have 10 children!" those kinds of psychics are usually only in movies, and when you see them IRL you can tell they're not worth it anyway.
everyone knows psychics aren't ~real~. who cares? if you don't want to see a psychic, don't see one. if you want to see a psychic, see one. it doesn't matter if you "cannot comprehend why", it's fun to them so leave them be
StarbakiHero
No, "everyone" does _not_ know "psychics aren't real." Do you have any idea how many gullible people there are on the planet?
I know _six people who think psychics can actually predict the future. SIX._
Two of them _regularly visit psychics_, not for fun, but to give them actual "advice" about what they should be doing in their lives.
And sure, while some psychics do it for "fun," most do it to scam people out of their money.
I'm not going to leave people be if all they're going to do is take advantage of the naive and emotionally susceptible. That's just _wrong_.
Lynne the Trendy Tetraodontiforme
you're ignoring what i was talking about. i don't care about psychics. you were making fun of people who see psychics, which is wrong. also, you're annoying, and i'm already tired of your condescending tone so i'm muting this conversation. 0: 0: 0:
A medium? Oh, right, she takes advantage of mourners. I understand.
***** You're talking about native shamans.
***** There are no such thing as "spirits" and no one has ever proven that they can "work with" them. Shut the hell up.
JonasSalk why are you offended by someone believing something different to you? Who hurt you to make you so negative? It's not hurting you for someone to believe in spirits just like it doesn't hurt me for someone to believe in their God or not believe in God or Greek gods or the Hindu god or what have you.
Provided it doesn't effect you then it shouldn't matter what others believe.
It's only when it interferes such as racists or people against homosexuals (I dislike the term 'homophobic' personally because they're not scared of us - they're just assholes) because they're stopping people from having a basic right.
Somebody believing their husband or wife, mum or dad, etc - is saying that they love and miss them just fills a void whether or not it is real. It gives them comfort. Someone 'reading future cards' gives someone hope and enthusiasm to strive for.
It is simply a crutch much like most religions.
All of which you should have a respect for provided they don't hurt others.
Oh, sorry - didn't realise you had the knowledge of the entirety of the universe to know that they're all 'lies'.
My mistake.
Dumbass.
There's no problem in believing this stuff...there is a problem extorting cash out of grieving reletives.
I'm a skeptic but I wanted to get my fortune read because it seemed fun. Tbh I was slightly disappointed. She got a few things correct, but most of it was rather vague easily applicable statements ie you will travel, you will move, you know an older woman who takes a lot of medication. :/ the worst thing was she got things that were completely off and I was insulted because they seemed stereotypical. She said I would excel in math and medical fields. I'm a photographer. I'm horrific at math and never had any interest in medical sciences. She later tried to pass it off that she was picking up energy from my roommates in the room (they were also Asian), but ALL of us were involved in creative fields. I did confirm I was going to go travel soon for a wedding and she said she sensed "water." And I told her I was going to Texas lmao(from CA). Kind of cringey.
lmao rip that fortune teller
Lmaooo
You got scammed, lol.
These skeptics weren't skeptical enough for me!! Although, it's hard to tell because they obviously want to be polite.
...but I would've been having none of it.
"Is this my future?" "It's a possible future" Boy anything is a possible future.
Eugenes face when he said as a geshia omg I'm dying 😭
She was right about Zach... he met Maggie not long after this.
These people werent properly skeptics. They just were not.
Mokaygee one of them is religious, lol real skeptical
Says something *Reacts positively
Yes i saw this was definitely going to happen.
*Reacts negatively
Maybe, it may happen, I'm not sure what Im seeing.
Ikr! And the card reader person judged what she said based on the persons looks! Like the kinda dorky one with classes she said that she needs to get out more!! Anyone could guess that and be right! Sterotypes is all she is doing. So magic bullshit.
It saddens me that people actually make a living scamming others with this nonsense, but as they say... there's a sucker born every minute.
Keri Nyx We're all being scammed every minute of our lives.
My mother is a psychic who amazes me everyday with the things she knows (I've never in my life seen her look someone up or anything of this nature), no need to be cynical. I know there are real scammers out there so it is good to be a skeptic to protect yourself. You believe what you want to believe, just don't be rude to people who believe in something opposite of you.
Keri Nyx I find it plainly interesting that people like Megan Le Fey are smart enough to look for clues about a person they're "reading", and make general assumptions to get more of a solid ground to make predictions off of.
TimberWolfGamer Sorry. Even if people find it offensive, that's just how I honestly feel.
Dark Kijin I agree, psychics are able to read people well, and that is a talent, I just think it's too bad they use it to take advantage of others.
cmon it's like entertainment.
i think the most important thing to remember is when she said "it's up to you what you do with it". Tarot card reading might not be supernatural, but sometimes it's what people need to hear to get hope, help them make up their minds about certain life decisions etc. Just my 2 cents.
by the way, Eugene and Jen are hot.
Can we talk about how her comment about Eugene being in a geisha film is pretty similar to his coming out video??
I've been reading cards for a few years and this was bull. You never make generalizations or try and suggest what could happen. They're never as specific as they made them out to be. They say that she's been reading for a while but I don't buy that. If anything you say the meaning of the cards and what it could mean, like a new person coming into your life or that you need to be wary of a certain type of person. Cards would never say "oh yeah you're gonna be in memoirs of a geisha." That's not how they work.
Ryleigh Van Alstyne Every psychic or whatever has their own style, they are ALL bull though!!
Ryleigh Van Alstyne I think that might just be her style and her interpretation? I can't tell because this is an edited video, so you don't really get to see the actual reading. I wish Buzzfeed will do a video actually exploring what tarot is. :P
Fortune tellers are bull. Every human makes thousands of decisions a day. No one can predict what they will be.
Ryleigh Van Alstyne yeah, i know. i'm learning to read tarot and it's kind of upsetting that they called this video tarot readings, when she basically just took out a deck, put down some random cards, then started closed her eyes and acted like spirits were talking to her. ugh ugh ugh
Well seems like it came true, you get that Geisha vibe from his coming out video. The one where he was wearing that red flowy dress. Although he isn't wearing a traditional japanese kimono dress it somehow has that vibe to it.
If apple had a car
Would it have windows?
How "original"
They do have a car, and it does have windows. Try a Google search sometime.
Nope it would have iGlass
If apple made a sports car, they should call it Flash Drive
If you had a brain
would you be creative enough to think of you own jokes?
well, this is awkward...
Sooooo ..Eugen, the movie with the Geisha that he will be in... I feel like that could refer to his coming out video? Because he is dressed quite feminine in it for some scenes, and pale makeup and stuff?
Spiritual people 🤝🤝 non believers
Calling this women a scammer
I thought I had a fly or bug flying behind me but it was actually the music they played when they introduced the medium
SAME
K-pop?
I thought I was hearing popping candy or something, I was so confused.
"She is also a psychic and medium"
"Do you Zumba?"
"No, I swing dance"
Nailed it.
even if she doesnt really have psychic powers, she can probably read people based on the way they act, she could still be right and giving fairly accurate predictions based on revealing truths about people that they dont see themselves.
Watching this in 2020 and the medium said something to Eugene at 1:21 being Geisha, and in 2019 he came out as gay with full on performance and makeup.
BuzzFeed, she isn't a medium, she's clearly a large.
I died when I saw this HAHAHHAH😂😂
LOL that thing with Eugene that is going to play a role in a japenese drama show came true at the k pop series
I really want to see Eugene as a geisha.. He would probably be beautiful XD
Yess please 😂
Eugene, all the ladies in the cards are your fangirls.
She makes cold readings from the start, broadly based on appearance, accents and reactions. Some card descriptions are plain wrong, although the part that The Devil card was not be feared is true (kudos for saying that to the viewers).
All-in-all, a run-of-the-mill "psychic card reader" that is just a person reader, as far as I can tell.
Not a tarot card reader, though.
Different readers interpret the cards differently. Even if you read the books, they'll interpret them differently. I learned basics, and sometimes, what I see isn't the general interpretation of a card. Everyone also freaks at the Death card, too. Means endings, change. I usually interpret Devil as forces against one, or oppression. Blasted Tower---sudden change, sometimes catastrophic.
all i listened to was extremely vague ideas lmao
It's a heavily doctored video. None of us got the specifics except the people in that room.
Is buzzfeed stupid? The origin of tarot cards is known
As you are too lazy to google it it was playing cards for about 300 years before someone decided that they were mysterious and could predict the future.
But seriously google is your friend.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarot
what does it has to do with anything if we know the origins? its still real
@brooke lederer we know when they came to light; end of middle ages. origin i havent heard about it.
"The origin of Tarot is unknown"
Completely untrue lol
Shane de Leon Actually part true, No one really knows where the tarot had its origins, but the history of them seemed to date back to the 14th century - to the days of marco polo.
no that part actually is true. There are some ideas and hints about where it started and there's information on the more popular style of tarot decks, but the origin of the practice itself is mostly unknown/there is no largely agreed upon origin..
No One Knows How Tarot Started Lol, its true
Tarot was made for trick taking card games
Though the origin isn't completely known, there's so much more info they could have given. Talk about the origin of the popular art style or smth, a lot of people don't know about it
For those of you who are wondering, we do actually sort of know the origin of tarot cards. They originated in France sometimes around the 1500s as a tavern card game, similar to bridge. So in a sense, they were the first playing cards. In fact, if you look at the Minor Arcana, they represent exactly the basic deck of 52 cards we have today. Sure, the suits were different, and they had 4 face cards instead of 3, but it remains that the origins of tarot are not all that dubious.
But as to how they were related to mysticism and divination, I have no idea.
Actually tarot cards have many stories behind them I heard it was made in Italy for some sort of king. The part where it's similar to bridge part stays the same though
Tarot is older but was in different forms other than paper. The mystical collection is mainly based on western culture but is drawn for other older cultures too. Then artwork was transferred to paper and used to entertain. Best of my understanding.
I really want to know if the the readers really think they are make real predictions.
I bet some of them do fully believe in what they do I have no problem with them providing the price is fair and they don't say something to mess someone up.
What I have an objection to is the people who knowing con other people.
So in other words, its largely the blind leading the blind?
I think some actually believe it. There are always some people who believe in something weird like a deck of cards.
That was a tongue twister :D. Probably.
Finn Beruldsen no... what they think is "omg i cant believe this shit is working LMFAO!!!"
(yes the LMFAO!!! is part of what they're thinking...)
Tbh once you know the skills they employ to read cards it's funny to watch people be really impressed and shocked. Like all of these observations are so incredibly general and are assumptions based on what can be easily told about you from a single look, and they'll generally be good things so you're less likely to try to see the holes in her theories. She may be good at reading and playing people, but that's all.
Let's be real, the Try Guys need to re-watch this video and realize HOW AMAZING this reading was and just how much it foretold!!!
"has been a tarot card reader for over 16 years... She is also a psychic and a medium"... So a bullshit artist?
She's proud that she's been fucking people over for that long. Disgusting!!!
Exactly what I was thinking, "So your telling me shes an expert at manipulating people?" Great profession,
It's just for fun dude.
she would also make a great lawyer
Matthew Bowen psychics and mediums get paid fat loads from familly members of a deceased loved one,mediums interfere and toy with their emotions and memories possibly damaging them just for a little coin
People get so mad but like, even though its probably fake, its still fun to experience. Lighten up eh?
+That One Geek Amber thank you! People can be so closed-minded
I do tarot, trust me theirs nothing fake about them
Alyssa films there's everything fake about this reader though. this is 100% fake. i've done tarot for over a decade and there is nothing to this reading.
Amberlee R. Lol. It's NOT REAL. If it was real it would be science, it would be provable.
@@BloodInTheStrawberries If there is no basis in science why would I believe it to be true?
Memoirs of a Geisha . . . to an Asian dude . . . wowwwwwwwwwww, lady. Wowwwwww.
.... she was saying that she was getting images of an Asian historical film. A movie LIKE memoirs of a geisha. And geishas are highly respected in Japan, they train for years and are considered professionals. Hollywood westernized Asian culture as tragedy porn, and you're buying it. You're probably white, definitely not Japanese, so stop defining what is and isn't racist for someone else. You don't know what you're talking about.
That whole part was really cringey.
Has no one seen Eugene's coming out video??
@@shashifoxie2670 he's *_GaAAaAyyyyyY??_* that's awesome...I can have a crush on him now
Shyla Palafox thank you!
Next time have her do this without looking at them. She's using micro expressions
Yeah... sees Asian guy (Korean), mentions Memoir of Geisha, sees girl with no makeup, tells her to get out more...
+Joseph Tyrrell i agree, she's really terrible
WitchPanda microexpressions tell you that a girl handwrites a journal? And that a guy has a particular poster in his room..?
That and they have facebooks that says and shows all that crap
Micro Expressions???... Are YOU serious...
When I do GROUP Readings 17 - 25 people... Do you think I have time to watch for Micro Expressions...
That is so funny... "NO"... You'd have to KNOW "HOW TO" read them first...
They are not skeptics. They may not be horrible gullible, but they did nothing to challenge the magician.
"do you zumba?"
"no i swing dance"
*shoot i screwed up better change the subject* OH I LOVE SWING DANCING
+Z No she said that she dances then she guessed what kind of dancing. So...
+Z No she said that she dances then she guessed what kind of dancing. So...
For Eugene’s reading he did become a geisha tho
I love how this was made wayyyy beofre Eugene came Out so he was all “ohhhh the ladiessss are coming my wayyyyy”
If windows had cars would it have apples?
Just stfu
Yes, also illuminati and Darude - Sandstorm.
My brain.....
Someone moved to LA with a dream... SHOCKER!
Damn Zach prediction came true with his love life!!
Tarot cards aren’t to tell the future there to tell your state of mind in the present past and future
One time I was skeptic too, until somebody did the same with me... Nowadays I read cards. No joking.
Ereina I fucked up.
also look up James Randi disproving cold reading and psychics.
you got fooled,reading these comments i don't want to believe there are so many stupid people that actually believe in this nonsense
Harrison Harris Cold readings aren't related to tarot card readings. Cold readings are related to psychic readings. Tarot readers aren't psychic.
Harrison Harris, this woman was not a tarot reader. she said she was, but she was cold reading. she barely looked at the cards.
Watching skeptics getting a reading never gets old! I always loved watching the looks on people's faces when my mom would just seem to pull all of these little bits of information about their lives out of nowhere
Still waiting to see Eugene as a Geisha.
i actually know some of the cards because of the binding of isaac
Please, "the origin of tarot cards is unknown." Not true! They used to be used as playing cards and there are a few other theories. Come on buzzfeed, either do your research or don't bother putting that false information there.
as someone interested in Tarot, and do readings myself, I can honestly say reading reactions is very important and is also a part that affects the readings by a good amount. Cards themselves are vague and can mean very different things in according to where they are placed in the spread and who were they spread for. But if you would put every Tarot card and read them one by one for a person they all would turn out to be true. The important thing in Tarot is the part that it guides you, not the part that it tells you the future (that is not the case anyway).So ' you are going to be in a Film' can't be a Tarot reading. Tarot does not have films in it. But Tarot can tell you that you may want to do something new with your life in an exciting project. But when you look at the big scale, everyone may and probably will have big changes made, or big exciting projects to come. The important thing is what that card was placed in response to, which creates a story. And no one knows (only believes or not) that if the Tarot is real or not. But for the reciever, a good and healthy reading by someone who is ethical ( who makes sure that the person who gets the reading KNOWS that nothing is promised during the reading, and careful enough not to give medical, diagnostic or legal advice) it can be helpful in especially setting one's mind in order. People will always recieve what is easy to them first. But they may also recieve what they need, as well. That's why Tarot works, and even though less in number, good Tarot readers still exist. Not because they tell you, "something happen to you at this particular hour and you will eat a sandwich".
Seriously? She asked questions based on the peoples appearances and gauged their reactions and continued the conversation according to that. I have gone to a number of tarot card readers, mediums, ect. and they all do the same thing. These people honestly believe they are communicating with spirits and stuff like that, but in reality they are just very responsive to the way people are acting.
She's Not Doing It Right ...
Vicky Green how does a black guy wearing a black shirt indicate he moved to LA with a dream
@@eddywade3994 most people move to LA w a dream lmao....
Try tarot Reading on UA-cam they always hit the nail for me.
Yeah, I'm not impressed with how many of these tarot 'skeptic' videos usually have a crappy reader. I read tarot myself and I have put a *LOT* of effort into studying it, from the imagery, to the symbolism, the four elements, the numerology, the body language of the characters and how each cards link together etc... It really disappoints me because it creates a certain perception of tarot in peoples' minds. I have been reading for around 9 months now and I still spend hours studying and practicing each day. One thing I will say though, is I don't believe tarot cards predict the future because nothing is set in stone. I hate the fortune telling stereotype. Your experiences are unfortunate, please know we are not all like this.
What some people don't understand is that fate changes. You have to be willing to adapt so these readings can come true
IM SO FIRST GUYS JUST IGNORE EVERYONE BELOW ME!
I thought you said "just ignore everyone and blow me." I was like, cool same.
If I don't like my comment, why would you?
Adolf Hitler You must have a rough time in the bedroom.
Adolf could you move along? You are scaring the likes away,
Heh lol that comment has 69 likes I'm so immature
There is no way she could've known all of that?! Maybe she, uh, I don't know, watched a couple of Buzzfeed videos?!
I did one today for the first time, super cool and accurate! You should never doubt something until you try it.
a year ago and poor Zach is still single AF :(
This person is just good at making observations...
I've had a couple of readings. They're incredibly inaccurate.
+Daniel Dough how do i contact that person?
There are a lot of factors involved in Tarot. The skill of the reader, the openness of the one being read and the cards only show the probable outcome. One decision can derail the shown potential.
I love how vague and general the reader is.
I think she predicted Eugene's coming out video... no offense
