I'm Ellen Goldberg and welcome to this taro moment from the School of Oracles. In this segment, we're going to take a look at the temperance card, one of the most wonderful cards of the deck. This card is the card of the holy guardian angel. The angel pictured in this card is Michael or as it is said mythically, Michael. How do we know it's Michael? Because of the solar disk at the place of the third eye on his forehead. Notice the circle with the dot in it, representing the sun. He's mixing things and in fact the word "temperance" means or comes from temperāre, to mix and to combine properly. There is a path in this card and that path is the golden path to attainment. Notice the crown at the end of the path. That crown refers to the tops of the theira on the tree of life. Catter, the crown. He has one foot, Michael, on the ground and one in a pool. The pool represents the collective unconscious. On the tree of life, it is the spear of Assad, which is water and the moon and out of which rises the middle of the tree and that golden path is the middle pillar, right to the top, right to the God head, the crown. This angel has one foot in the collective unconscious where you can contact him. We meet these marvelous beings deep within ourselves. In fact, the conversation of the holy guardian angel is at the heart of alchemy. The iris growing by the side of the pool represents the goddess Iris who is the goddess of the rainbow. And that is the symbol of peace and promise. This card encourages us to try and to test. It's Hebrew letter, Samekh means a tent peg - that great pole that rises in the center of a tent that is the basic structure for keeping the whole thing aloft. Our holy guardian angel props us up, keeps us aloft. In fact, it is said and it is going to be one of the meanings I use often on the higher polarity that there is nothing that happens to us that is not set by our own holy guardian angel. Every test, every challenge has been made for us in a very particular way. When you get this card on the higher polarity, be willing to take the heat. Be willing to experiment, for the intelligence given to samekh is the intelligence of probational trial, meaning you really only know once you've tested things out. Do you know that in the 14th century, this card used to be called the optimist? It's also your own personal physician and it's a wonderful card to meditate on and to simply gaze upon when you need a healing and of course, when you want to invoke the presence for each person has a guardian angel. I love those words from the torah that says, "Every blade of grass has an angel that bends over it and whispers 'grow, grow.'" Our angel does that too so on the higher polarity it's taking the heat, testing, trying things out, experimenting, walking on the middle path and also the presence of your own angel being near. On the lower polarity is more like the urge to escape. You don't want to take the heat and the refusal to turn to aid from a higher source on behalf of the School of Oracles, I thank you for being with me. Bye for now.

How to Choose a Drop Cloth | Ask This Old House
Ask This Old House painter Mauro Henrique explains which type of drop cloth he selects for which project #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Cost: $15 and up, depending on the drop cloth Skill Level: Beginner Shopping List: Tarp [https://amzn.to/2qfJmnq] Canvas drop cloth [https://amzn.to/2XpUxpu] Canvas backed plastic drop cloth [https://amzn.to/2NWH4T8] Thick plastic drop cloth [https://amzn.to/2XqfWPg] Thin plastic drop cloth [https://amzn.to/2CWLd37] Paper drop cloth [https://amzn.to/2CTboYe] Steps: 1. Professional painters avoid standard canvas drop cloths, as they’re not great at preventing paint spills from absorbing and staining the floor. Instead, they prefer canvas backed, plastic lined drop cloths. 2. Thick plastic drop cloths should be used outdoors, particularly for covering plants, shrubs, etc. Mauro recommends not using them on the ground or on the floor because they can get slippery. 3. Thin plastic drop cloths are used for protecting furniture and other materials that can’t be removed from the room being worked in. They should not be used on the floor because they can tear easily and because they also can get slippery. 4. Tarps are good for exterior projects, particularly scraping paint off the sides of a house. They shouldn’t be used when it’s time to start painting. 5. Paper drop cloths are great for trim and edge work. Mauro likes to cut 4-5 inch sections of paper, tape it along the bottom edge of the baseboard, and then lay his canvas drop cloth on top of that to work. Resources: All the drop cloths Mauro mentioned he uses, including the canvas, plastic, and tarps, can all be found at home centers and painting supply stores About Ask This Old House TV: Homeowners have a virtual truckload of questions for us on smaller projects, and we're ready to answer.

How to Understand Indoor Air Quality | Ask This Old House
Ask This Old House home technology expert Ross Trethewey and plumbing and heating expert Richard Trethewey discuss indoor air quality, what it is, and how to measure it #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Shopping List: IAQ monitors [https://amzn.to/3310CtE] Energy recovery ventilator [https://amzn.to/2OtefMW] Steps: 1. Indoor air quality (IAQ) is a description of different compounds and pollutants that comprise the air inside a home or building, which includes everything from particles released from cooking, CO2 from humans breathing, VOCs from cleaning products, etc. 2. IAQ has become more top of mind for HVAC engineers because homes are tighter and keep air inside the building for significantly longer than in years past. 3. To keep clean air in an airtight home, consider installing an energy recovery ventilator (ERV) which can act like lungs for the building, bringing fresh air in without losing any of the heating or cooling attached to it. 4. There are a couple different monitors designed to measure and keep track of common pollutants in the air, including radon, CO2, VOCs, etc., that can be installed in a home and monitored via phone. Resources: Ross and Richard tested out a couple different IAQ monitors, including one made by Foobot (https://foobot.io/), Airthings Wave Plus [https://amzn.to/35cHtGM], which is manufactured by Airthings (https://ift.tt/33teMnS ), Awair [https://amzn.to/37faG5G] (https://getawair.com/), and Hobo [https://amzn.to/2Qr4IsB], which is manufactured by Onset (https://www.onsetcomp.com/). Most homeowner-friendly IAQ monitors have similar price points, but Ross suggests carefully reading the reviews of the monitors before investing in one, since they have different quality levels of sensors and some are more accurate than others.

Start by identifying and locating the pipes in the wall. Your contractor should devise ways to remove the pipes while minimally disrupting the space. 2. Cut access holes where necessary to remove the pipes. 3. Shut the water off to the house and open all the faucets in the house to remove any water remaining in the pipes. 4.

How to Quiet a Squeaky Door | Ask This Old House
Ask This Old House general contractor Tom Silva explains different methods for silencing a squeaky door #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Time: 1-2 hours Cost: $5-10 Skill Level: Beginner Tools List for Quieting a Squeaky Door: Hammer [https://amzn.to/2r3mnMl] Shopping List: Multi-purpose oil [https://amzn.to/33X1IrG] Powdered graphite [https://amzn.to/2KxuqI8] Nail [https://amzn.to/2Xxu1L6] Steps: 1. Start by identifying the hinge(s) that are squeaking. Use a hammer and a nail to remove each hinge pin one at a time, and continue to open and close the door. When the door opens and closes silently, the pin(s) that are removed are the ones that are squeaking. 2. Apply some lubricating oil to the squeaky hinge pins and put them back into place. 3. If that doesn’t work, try blowing some graphite onto the hinge pin. 4. If that doesn’t work, or the squeak keeps returning after a period of time, it’s possible the hinge is out of alignment. Try carefully knocking the hinge back into alignment using the hammer and nail. Be cautious of deforming or damaging the hinge in the process. 5. Return the hinge pin to the hinge and see if the squeak has stopped. It may require more fine tune adjustments to get it perfectly back into place. Resources: Tom used a couple methods to try and quiet the door. In this case, the hinges were out of alignment, and needed to be carefully bent back into position using a hammer. In most other cases, some type of lubricant will usually work to quiet a door. Tom started with a 3-IN-ONE multi-purpose oil lubricant [https://amzn.to/2NW80SW] (https://www.3inone.com/). Since that didn’t work for the homeowner, he also suggested trying 3G Powdered Graphite Lubricant [https://amzn.to/37jh8Zy], which is manufactured by Hillman (https://ift.tt/2Dovo5D ). If that doesn’t work, it’s worth considering the alignment issues that Tom addressed.

You can see, for example, in this image here in Africa, little girl is a bit scared. You can also see the little stuffed koala that I give every child when I travel. You can see the mother comforting her, and you can see the grandmother in the background, hands on hips, because they're meant to be out working. Expression is a major story-telling device when taking a portrait photograph, the other one is pose. Just by crossing an arms, we can make someone look angry, by leaning back we can make them look relaxed. And we can tell a story in multiple ways. Another thing to keep in mind and, looking at the Africa photo again, is that the background is extremely important. The background, the context, everything is part of the story. We have here multiple things happening to tell the story. We have the expression on the face, we have the positioning of the arms and the posing of the subjects, even though it was completely natural, especially with the grandmother in the background, hands on hips. But the entire environment is part of the story telling process. Remember, as a photographer, we are a story teller. A picture paints a thousand words. It doesn't mean that we can be lazier than a writer, it just means that we need to be a little bit more efficient.

How to Install an Antique Light Switch | Ask This Old House
Ask This Old House master electrician Heath Eastman replaces a standard toggle switch with a reproduction antique push button switch to match the rest of the house. #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Time: 20 minutes Cost: $80 Skill Level: Beginner Tools List for Installing a Light Switch: Flathead screwdriver Philips head screwdriver Voltage tester Shopping List: Push button switch Cover plate Steps: 1. Start by turning off the power to the light switch at the breaker and use the voltage tester to ensure the power is off. 2. Remove the screws holding the cover plate in place using the flathead screwdriver. 3. Remove the light switch by loosening the two screws holding it into the electrical box. These should be able to be removed using the Philips head. 4. Loosen the screws on the side of the switch with the Philips head and unhook the wires wrapped around them. Try to keep track of the orientation so you can return those wires to the correct position for the new switch. 5. Wire the new push button switch. Wrap the ground wire around the ground screw and tighten it with the Philips head. For these reproduction switches, the red and black wires should be inserted straight into the receptacle and tightened by the side screws using the flathead. 6. Secure the new switch to the electrical box using the provided screws. 7. Attach the new cover plate over the switches and secure it to the wall using the screws. 8. Turn the power back on. Resources: Heath installed two switches at the box. To control the lamp on the other side of the room, he installed a Premium Push Button Light Switch. To control the light at the ceiling fan, he installed a Premium Single Pole Push Button Universal Dimmer Switch. Both had mother-of-pearl inlays. The cover plate was an Antique Brass Double Button Switch Plate [https://amzn.to/2O45cSt]. All these parts and pieces were manufactured by House of Antique Hardware (https://ift.tt/37aUD9b). The other tools Heath used to install the switch, including the screwdriver and wire nuts, can be found at home centers.

I'm Natalia Rose, and today we're going to talk about whether fasting is a good way to detox. Well, in short, the answer is yes, but the longer answer is what is detox? Detoxing means to remove the accumulated matter that's made a home in your body that doesn't belong there. So, what fasting does is it quiets the system down so that the body can start to remove this accumulation. Fasting is creating the conditions for detoxification, but detoxification actually only occurs when the waste matter that has been accumulated leaves the body. So, fasting is a great way to trigger detoxification, but detoxification is not complete until the waste actually leaves the body.

How to Work with a Contractor | Ask This Old House
Ask This Old House host Kevin O’Connor, general contractor Tom Silva, plumbing and HVAC expert Richard Trethewey, mason Mark McCullough, and carpenter Nathan Gilbert discuss the ways homeowners and contractors should communicate to set appropriate expectations for home improvement projects #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Steps: 1. Before partnering with a contractor to work on your house, consider some of the unexpected disruptions or uncomfortable circumstances that could arise between you and the contractor during the project that are worth being prepared for and having appropriate conversations about. 2. Start by doing as much research as possible on the project to try and understand the scope of the work you’re asking for. Talk to neighbors who have done similar projects, go to the home center and look at the cost of desired materials, etc. The more knowledge you have going into the project, the better informed your questions will be for the contractor. 3. To avoid “sticker shock” from a contractor quote, consider all the work required by the contractor to complete the job while they aren’t at your house. They will need to purchase and transport materials, train employees, maintain the overhead cost of their business, etc. 4. Beware the “low bid”. Usually, the low bid is missing “behind-the-scenes” work that can result in long lasting errors in the project. 5. Be prepared for weather disruptions. Some work can’t happen in the rain, snow, etc., which can exponentially delay a project. 6. Have materials for the project in mind and consider having backup materials in mind as well. If there are delays in the delivery of the material, that can also slow down the project significantly and a runner-up could save a lot of that time.

How to Design a Terraced Garden | Ask This Old House
Ask This Old House landscape designer Jenn Nawada helps a homeowner select, place, and install plants for her terraced garden #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Time: 4-5 hours Cost: $200 Skill Level: Beginner Tools List for Designing a Terraced Garden: [YT] Shovel [https://amzn.to/2Cdkj6I] Shopping List: [YT] Shrubs [https://amzn.to/2reJfZr] Tall perennials [https://amzn.to/2JO7fZG] Short perennials [https://amzn.to/2JO7fZG] Grasses [https://amzn.to/2oPthUG] Shade tolerant plants [https://amzn.to/36uRNvc] Steps: 1. When working on a garden with varying heights and sun exposure, Jenn follows the following guidelines. 2. Add grasses in the back and on the sides of the garden to act as a backdrop for the garden and to minimize other structures. 3. Anchor stairs with symmetrical plants. She finds shrubs will better define the walking area than other types of plants. 4. Keep taller plants on the lower terraces so that they don’t obstruct the view of the higher terraces. 5. Add perennials with color throughout the garden for visual impact. 6. Add creepers and other plants with texture to the lower terraces so they can grow over the edges of the planter to soften the look. 7. Plant shade tolerant plants in the shady areas. There are shade tolerant plants with varieties of textures and colors that can make the area beautiful. 8. Repeat plants and elements throughout the garden to make the entire garden feel cohesive. Resources: Jenn installed a variety of plants, depending on their location in the garden. To minimize the fence and add a backdrop to the rest of the garden, Jenn planted maiden grass. To anchor the stairs, Jenn planted two boxwoods and two butterfly bushes. For color, she planted blue hill salvia and orange echinacea. To add texture to the lower planter, Jenn planted hens and chicks and lemon thyme. Underneath the tree, Jenn planted snake root, Japanese painted ferns, false indigo, and bleeding heart, because they are shade tolerant and will do well under the tree. All of these plants can be found at nurseries and some of them can be found at home centers.

Twisted Chimney | Home Inspection Nightmares | Ask This Old House
Ask This Old House host Kevin O’Connor, general contractor Tom Silva, plumbing and HVAC expert Richard Trethewey, and mason Mark McCullough share more home inspection nightmares. #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Steps: 1. Richard has a submission from Danny in Florida. For starters, Richard isn’t a fan of this corrugated drain pipe, but it’s not technically “wrong.” But when the drain line started to leak, Richard thought this solution of using a latex glove was novel. 2. Mark shares a submission from Nancy in Indiana. Her chimney in her 1920s Craftsman takes a turn when it gets to the attic. Not only did she find this crooked chimney, but several beer cans on the floor, which she thinks may explain it! 3. Tom has another one that he found that he also thinks Mark will appreciate. It’s from Tim in Ohio: this is a neighboring apartment building near him. It looks like the tenants here haven’t been watching Mark’s segments about how to properly repoint brickwork. Instead, they tried to use spray foam to patch up some holes. Resources: Expert assistance with this segment was provided by the American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI) (https://ift.tt/2eGiVNw).

In truth, the landscape starts from where the lens ends. Everything from the lens to infinity is your landscape photograph, and the more vibrant, the more explosive, and the more part of the story that your foreground is, the more effective your landscape. There are three things I do to really try and emphasize my landscape. The first thing is I pick a focal point generally towards the front. In this case I didn't. I used the ruins there in my mid-ground, but I've still got a very impacting foreground, which is still part of my focus, and that is the llamas. The second thing I do is I raise my horizon. I make sure that my horizon is up on the two-third line, on the top horizontal part of my rule of thirds. The third thing that I like to do is shoot it from a lower angle. Most photographs you see of Macchu Pichu in Peru are shot from above. You're seeing the entire ruins, and you're seeing the mountain. But using that less is more philosophy, coming from lower and shooting up towards Macchu Pichu, I'm perhaps creating a little bit more impact and a little bit more power in my photograph than perhaps if I've shot it from above. So when I'm shooting a landscape, I try to shoot from below. I try to shoot up towards my landscape rather than from above to create a much more powerful and impacting photograph with a lot more focus on my foreground and definitely more of a story.

How to Repair a Built-In with Hand Tools | Ask This Old House
Ask This Old House general contractor Tom Silva repairs an old dining room built-in with hand tools and a bar of soap. #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Time: 3 hours Cost: $30 Skill Level: Difficult Tools List for Repairing a Built-In: Block plane [https://amzn.to/36eUEbC] Framing square (or straight edge) [https://amzn.to/2BMcgxw] Japanese pull saw [https://amzn.to/2NhJWIA] Utility knife [https://amzn.to/2MUHpVO] Clamps [https://amzn.to/31UXG1k] Rasp [https://amzn.to/330nb2I] Sanding block [https://amzn.to/31MQwfu] Shoulder plane [https://amzn.to/2JtDygi] Shopping List: Scrap pine [https://amzn.to/2JJe92v] Wood glue [https://amzn.to/31U8PPG] Bar soap [https://amzn.to/2olmW2S] Steps: 1. Start by straightening out the chip on the face of the drawer using a block plane. 2. Hold the scrap wood flat against the chip. Use a pencil and mark the wood roughly for the length. To get the depth, slide the board until the pencil mark hits the end of the chipped section and mark the height there as well. 3. Use a straight edge to draw a line from the pencil marks to the corner of the board. 4. Cut the patch from the wood along the pencil lines using the pull saw. 5. Next, mark the thickness for the patch by holding it up against the drawer face. 6. Cut the patch to thickness. At this point, the patch will be thin, so it’s easiest to score and then cut it with a utility knife. 7. Glue the patch to the face of the drawer using wood glue. Clamp it down and allow it to completely dry. 8. Before removing the clamps, try to match the profile of the drawer on the short side of the patch. Use a combination of the block plane, the rasp, and the sanding block until the profile matches. 9. Remove the clamps and repeat the process for the long side of the patch. To get the long side to match, a shoulder plane will need to be used to ensure it’s perfectly straight. 10. To keep the doors from sticking, flip them upside down and plane the inside edges of the drawer to allow for more expansion and contraction in the wood. 11. Once the drawers have been planed, lubricate the bottom edges of the drawer with bar soap until they slide in and out of the cabinet with ease. This process should be repeated every few years or so to make sure the soap doesn’t wear out. 12. Touch up the drawers with paint or a desired finish. Resources: To patch the chips on the dining room drawers, Tom used some scrap pine and a variety of hand tools to carve its profile. Some of those hand tools included a couple different rasps, a Japanese pull saw, a utility knife, and a hand plane. Some of these tools can be found at home centers, but it will be easier to locate them all at specialty woodworking shops. To secure the patches to the drawers, Tom used Gorilla Wood Glue [https://amzn.to/2PrYW9I] (www.gorillatough.com). To smooth out the drawers, Tom rubbed regular bar soap across the slides. He recommends this get redone every two years ago to keep them from sticking.

How to Install a Dining Room Chandelier | Ask This Old House
Ask This Old House master electrician Heath Eastman makes his first house call to install a chandelier in a homeowner’s dining room. #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Time: 3-4 hours Cost: $500 Skill Level: Moderate Tools List for Installing a Chandelier: Measuring tape [https://amzn.to/2qU7fAV] Plumb laser [https://amzn.to/32Ud3ID] Drill [https://amzn.to/2BQB1IN] Hole saw [https://amzn.to/2WmAPun] Insulation rod [https://amzn.to/32SnTic] Screwdriver [https://amzn.to/2qTOk9h] Dust shroud [https://amzn.to/2BMCkIK] Fish tape [https://amzn.to/2MX7yn3] Shopping List: Light fixture [https://amzn.to/34cjjLQ] Painter’s tape [https://amzn.to/343Pltw] 14 gauge non-metallic cable [https://amzn.to/36i5XQr] Electrical tape [https://amzn.to/2pkBCzR] Old work fan bracket [https://amzn.to/31SnyuA] Steps: 1. Start by turning off the power to the room. 2. Next, identify the location for the light. In most cases, this will be in the center of the room, but consider the placement of the dining room table and if it should be centered over that (if the table is not in the center of the room). 3. To get the light perfectly centered in the room or over the table, measure the width and height of the area and mark the center point from both directions. You can use a piece of painter’s tape on the floor or on the table to mark the exact center of the room. 4. Use the plumb laser directly over the marks on the painter’s tape. This will display a red dot on the ceiling, which can then be marked as the location for the ceiling light. 5. Poke a small hole in the ceiling using the screwdriver. Bend the insulation rod to roughly 2 inches to accommodate for the 4 inches diameter of the electrical box. To help stay oriented, bend the bottom of the rod in the same direction. 6. Poke the insulation rod into the ceiling and spin it around. As long as the area above is clear, it’s safe to drill. 7. Drill a hole in the ceiling using a 4 inch hole saw and a dust shroud. 8. Run wires from the nearest power source up to the hole in the ceiling. This will requiring taping fish tape to the Non-metallic cable using electrical tape to help pull the wires through the ceiling. 9. Depending on where the hole is in the room, it’s likely that you’ll need to install an old work fan bracket between two joists, with the box centered over the hole. The box will need to be secured to the bracket using screws and the screwdriver. 10. Wire the light fixture to the wires through the ceiling and mount the fixture to the box. Resources: Heath installed the Newbury Manor Collection Bronze Chandelier [https://amzn.to/3471aza], manufactured by Home Decorators Collection and sold at The Home Depot (www.homedepot.com). Heath used a plumb laser to locate the ceiling fixture, which was manufactured by PLS Laser [https://amzn.to/2MUT9aX] (https://ift.tt/36wrCV5). All of the other tools and materials for this project, including an old work fan bracket, non-metallic cabling, lineman’s pliers, and needle nose pliers are available at home centers and electrical supply shops.

How to Decode Screws | Ask This Old House
Ask This Old House general contractor Tom Silva explains the uses and purposes of different types of screws. #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Shopping List: [YT] Screws [https://amzn.to/31zSorW] Screw head gauge [https://amzn.to/35VXEcx] Steps: 1. Tom shared a few different tips about screws and which ones he uses for what projects. Here are a few of his tips below: a. Wood screws have a coarse thread for driving into material. They shouldn’t be confused with bolts, which have machine threads and require a nut to secure them. b. Drywall screws should be used for drywall. They aren’t strong enough to handle other types of connections. c. Screw heads come in a few different varieties. Flathead and Phillips head are common screws, but Tom prefers to use a star or torx head screw because they’re less likely to strip. d. Check each screw to determine if it’s rated for indoor or outdoor use. e. To determine the appropriate size screw to use for a project, take the thickness of the material being attached and pick a screw that’s roughly 2.5x that. 2. Screws all come with a labeling system. Here’s how it works: a. The diameter is indicated by a # sign. That’s how thick the screw is. The higher the number, the thicker the screw. b. The height of the screw is labeled in inches and usually is marked right next to the diameter. 3. They sell kits (and they’re also usually on display at hardware stores and home centers) that allow you to drop the screw into a hole to determine what it is. Resources: All the different screws Tom demonstrated can be found at home centers. The gauge Tom demonstrated to help determine the correct screw head size is called a bolt gauge [https://amzn.to/35VXEcx] and can be found at home centers as well.

How to Use the Loci Technique | Memory Techniques

Beef up your memory with these products: Unlimited Memory: How to Use Learning Strategies to Learn Faster: http://amzn.to/1ZhQd79 The Memory Book: The Guide to Improving Your Memory at Work: http://amzn.to/1GyJ4DK Moonwalking with Einstein: The Art and Science of Remembering: http://amzn.to/1R1vC0U The Memory Jogger 2: Tools for Continuous Improvement: http://amzn.to/1Oo5pMt Memory Improvement: How To Improve Your Memory In Just 30 Days: http://amzn.to/1Oo5pMt Watch more How to Improve Your Memory videos: https://ift.tt/2N58Mwv I'm Barry Reitman, author of Secrets, Tips and Tricks of a Powerful Memory. And I'm going to speak a little bit about the loci system, how it evolved and what it means to you. Loci, plural of locus, simply means location or locations. 2,500 years ago a great poet named Simonides was at a banquet. He was asked to step outside to speak to someone and just as he left the banquet hall, it collapsed. This big stone structure collapsed in on everyone who remained. They were unrecognizable. But Simonides realized that he could tell the authorities which remains belong to whom because he had seen them at these tables. So, he remembered them by their location. And this led him to realize, as is recorded by Cicero, this led him to realize that if you know the location of something, or if you put something in a location you can remember it. In this case, the name of individuals. The loci system is truly synonymous with the memory palace system. I generally think of memory palace as my home. You will think of it as your home and there is another video in this series that discusses that. If you want to extrapolate it out a little bit, let's say, loci locations and make it broader. It might be the stops on bus that you ride to school everyday or on the train that you ride to work. It may be the exits on the highway. It may be the stores in a shopping center that you visit frequently or in which you work. It doesn't matter. Give those things numbers. You arbitrarily decide what those numbers are, in order, obviously if it's something like the bus route, just take them in the order that you come upon them. Number one is Main Street, number two is Elm Street, whatever they happen to be. And refresh yourself on them several times until they become automatic. It'll be soon because it's your regular route. And then when you have to remember something, perhaps a shopping list or a list of things to do, you're going to associate those things in silly pictures tied to those bus stops, those train stations, or those stores in the shopping center. A couple of examples perhaps, let's say you have a shopping list and you want to remember to get hamburger meat and fresh salmon and ice cream. And the first exit on the highway that you pass every single day is Hariman. Well, number one is Hariman and number one on your shopping list is hamburger meat. I'm sorry, but I am going to picture a hairy man, Hariman, eating raw hamburger meat. I'm going to see a picture of that. If I just say the words it's not going to help me. But if I see a picture of some hairy man eating raw hamburger meat there is no question in my mind. If the second stop on the highway that I drive every single day is Moatville and second thing I wanted to buy is fresh salmon, I might picture giant salmon swimming around in a moat. A moat, you know, that water bed that surrounds a castle. And I'm going to have, not salmon swimming in the moat, because that's a pretty natural picture, I have to make my picture silly or outrageous in some way. So, I'm going to have giant salmon, as big as the castle itself, swimming in that moat. I'm going to continue to do this with each stop. I already know that they represent the numbers. So, when I get to the store I don't have to say, what was the first item I have to get? What was the first item? All I have to do, since I know that my first exit on the highway is Hariman, all I have to do is ask myself what did I see a hairy man doing? He was eating raw hamburger meat, of course. You can't forget a list if you use a loci system.
