USDRoberto Giobbi - The 13 Golden Rules of Magic
The Thirteen Golden Rules of MagicAlthough it is true that there are no rules in Art, it is also true that, to learn a discipline, regardless of what type, following certain guidelines will make the process easier. Inspired by Henri Decremps, who in 1786 wrote down thirteen “principles of magic” in his landmark book Testament de Jérome Sharp, I have reviewed this advice, based on my own experience of several decades as a performing professional and have formulated what I think to be thirteen thoughts that will lead the aspiring magician to success.
Once you have reached the degree of a master in magic, you can safely break any of these rules, but until then I’m confident that for once thirteen will be a lucky number for you.
