Yona quote :-) 'Random Tarot fact. There are 1.2 TRILLION possible combinations of 78 cards in the 10 positions of a Celtic Cross spread!
This reminds me of a reading I had with Divine Empath regarding whether my poi and I would end up together again. It was a video reading. Because we have been out of contact well over a year she did a spread which showed we would be together again even though it would take some time. She doubted what the cards were saying so she picked up a different deck of cards and the spread showed the same thing. Again she had doubts so she picked up a third deck of cards and the spread revealed the same set of cards the third time as well. I could see the set of cards she pulled after shuffling in each case. She said this went against the ‘law of coincidence.’ Either she is an amazing card trickster, or there are demons at play tugging away at my emotions (past experience causes me not to ignore this possibility), or one day this will actually happen. Let’s see. Regarding time frame everyone has been wrong. Yona hasnt been wrong yet since she said I would have an 18 month to 2 year wait. She actually said I wont need another reading until after 2 years. Well, August makes it one year. What joy when the 2 year period ends. That would mean they would ALL be wrong including the great Yona!! Surely then I would be done with the psychic ship for good!!
yep, I had this thought before.
To be precise the probability that three spreads repeat the same 10 card sequence, assuming she uses all 78, and without replacement, would be
1/(78 P 10 ^3)
This isn't the exact number since she did a mini cross, but this is 1 over 12 quintillion, which as you can imagine is a number close to 0. if we were to repeat and repeat random draws , the probability would tend to zero, aka in the limit it is 0.
This is why she's saying that it can't be a coincidence.
Granted, it would be consistent with spirit or djinn/some other negative entity guided readings. Basically the above contravenes random chance driving the cards.
But it doesn't tell us anything about the accuracy of the cards..
If Yona were a trickster, she may be sitting there and repeating the cards-not saying she is at all. but some other reader you don't see face to face can claim to get the same set of cards and take notes.
Or it may be the djinn theory.
I know what you mean about the 2 years-but unfortunately, given that '2 weeks ' can be 2 months or 7 months , they mean nothing. it just means the event is far off. so there's no end for us to conclude either way or to arbitrate among the above propositions.
One thing that is funny tho: for example with the upcoming prediction about me having an interaction with a Knight of Wands. if the djinn theory is correct it should pass. The reason is that it's consistent with beliefs about how these beings operate. Remember they aren't human. They lack our intellect. They can't reason through. They are fueled by jealousy and hate for humans-which is weird-like who'd want to be a human now, given a choice, in this covid world? Or who would want to be a human born into a conflict zone? etc.
But these beings are dumb in a fashion and just act out of spite. So they are likely to throw a bone our way, and then dangle the carrot of wish fulfillment.
so for me the cards later on said at some point this guy will return and we'd have passion and romance, and until that I'm single.
If the Djinn are guiding her readings, then the short interaction will pass, also b/c it's got a sad note to it-recall these beings want you to suffer and be miserable by virtue of us living and breathing. And of course the guy will never return and they'd want me to wait in vain.
So as you said they give trivia to crush our hopes and they cannot think strategically and wonder that perhaps over time, given sufficient iterations (experiential learning as you said) humans will catch on.
But if Yona is a fraudster or totally incompetent none of this will happen.
To be precise not all djinn are nefarious. Some are good, some are neutral, but those don't bother with human affairs so only the ones full of malice or perhaps the adolescent ones come through.
altho this entire theory is full of holes. The culture from which this religion arose just couldn't come up with an idea of beings that are truly of spirit-so djinn are born just like humans, and there's of course sex since this culture is obsessed with it, and of course their males are also superiors etc. You can see my sarcasm here.
I can't rule this out but I also can't accept a set of beliefs that tells me the above type of drivel.
