How to perform The  Mind wheel  Magic

Effect:

• You display a small printed wheel that has colors on one side and numbers on the other.

• Show a small black prediction envelope containing a prediction card inside.

• After displaying both sides of the wheel, you keep the number side facing front and ask a spectator to choose any number.

Performance Steps:

1. Preparation:

   • Ensure you have the small printed wheel and the prediction envelope ready.

   • Familiarize yourself with the mechanism of the wheel to smoothly execute the trick.

2. Presentation:

   • Introduce the wheel, showing both sides (colors and numbers) to establish that it is fair and not gimmicked.

   • Display the black prediction envelope and place it on the table in full view or hand it over to a spectator to hold.

3. Force and Revelation:

   • Begin with the number side of the wheel facing front.

   • Invite a spectator to select a number from the wheel. Let's say they choose Number 6.

   • Note the color corresponding to the chosen number using the clip.

4. Reveal:

   • After he selects say Number 6, the magician turns the wheel and counts 6 places away clockwise from his selection and whatever color comes that will be the spectator's selection.

   • Have the spectator open the prediction envelope to find that it contains a prediction card revealing the same color that was just selected.

5. Tips for Success:

   • Practice the smooth handling of the wheel to avoid suspicion.

   • Engage the audience with clear and confident instructions.

   • Build up the suspense before revealing the color from both the wheel and the prediction envelope.

Performance Ideas:

1. Mind Reading Theme:

   • Present the trick as a demonstration of mind reading or predicting the spectator's choice. Discuss how you've predicted their selection ahead of time.

2. Interactive Routine:

   • Involve multiple spectators by allowing them to verify the fairness of the wheel and the envelope before and after the trick.

3. Storytelling Approach:

   • Tell a story about how the wheel holds mysterious powers to predict outcomes, making the trick more engaging and memorable.

4. Variations:

   • Experiment with different presentation styles such as using a narrative about luck or destiny to enhance the magical effect.

5. Audience Participation:

   • Encourage audience members to participate actively by choosing numbers, thereby increasing the interactive element of the performance.
