If you picked up this book hoping to learn how to pull a rabbit out of a hat or master random tricks and illusions, then you’re going to be disappointed. This book leads you on a journey into the unknown—but not one revolving around sleight-of-hand games. Rather, it’s a quest to learn all that we are meant to come here and realise. It seeks to discover what all religions and spiritual systems have at their core as well as what all wise people have sought throughout the ages: self-knowledge. Realising that you’re responsible for what you create, how you perceive things, and what happens to you is tremendously liberating. If you can come to that realisation, you’ll be equipped to create a new and more rewarding life. Join the author as she looks back at pursuing truth as a professional singer, spiritual healer, intuitive coach, and student of the occult, yoga, reincarnation, spirituality and more in An Idiot’s Guide to Magic.

Forget about David Copperfield, cruise ship illusionists, and birthday party magicians. They're so old school, so 20th century. The conjuring that people starting out in magic today want to do is edgier, grittier, quick, visual, and maybe a little dangerous - magic to the max. Welcome to the world of street magic! The Complete Idiot's Guide to Street Magicwill teach you how to do it! Even some of the simplest stunts, if performed effectively, have the same strong potential to amaze onlookers as the more challenging feats. Out of the literally thousands of tricks that can be included, only those that are the most direct and have the greatest impact, both visually and psychologically, will appear in the book. Each magical effect will be rated on a scale from one-to-three stars, easy to difficult, according to how hard it is to learn and/or to perform.
