Zephyr

Created by: Cervier

Zephyr is a mentalism routine where a spectator thinks of any object (man-made, naturally occurring, living, or non-living) and writes it down on a billet. The magician then performs a witch hand sequence, correctly identifying which hand holds the billet three times, culminating in the reveal of the object. This trick is versatile, suitable for both close-up and stage performances, and offers a clear, engaging climax to the routine.
