Did the Mystic Gypsy Tablet date from the Middle Ages?
Answer: Wrong question. (Note: sometimes the ‘wrong question’ stone can be seen as a ‘no’).
Did the Mystic Gypsy Tablet come into being at a later date?
Answer: Wrong question.
Okay, it was time to get more specific:
Did the Mystic Gypsy Tablet come into being within the past 500 years?
Answer: Yes.
Did it come into being within the last 400 years?
No
Did it come into being within the past 300 years?
Yes.
Did it come into being within the past 200 years?
Yes.
Did it come into being within the past 100 years? That is, 1900 or later?
Yes.
Was it actually created by a gypsy?
No
Was it created by a practicing occultist?
No
Was it created by a publisher who just wanted to put out a new diversion for their readers?
Wrong question
Was it created by a writer who needed to come up with something for an upcoming issue of a periodical, or for a book?
No.
At this point, I thanked the Spirits and gave up in defeat. Well, I don’t know what that one ‘no’ answer in response to the question of had it been created within the past 400 years was about, but I felt I had an answer. The best I could determine was the Mystic Gypsy Tablet was created no farther back in time than 1900, and it was neither a gypsy, nor an occultist, nor a publisher or writer needing to fill a gap in an upcoming publication, who first created it. The yes-and-no stones seemed cagey about specifying who created it and why. They were very clear, however, that it most-certainly was not a product of the Middle Ages. And the book I found this in, to-date, is the only place I’ve seen this or the next tablet depicted. (The citation is at the end of this lesson).
