A significant development in '''[[clairvoyance]]''' research came in the 1930s, when J. B. Rhine, a parapsychologist at Duke University, introduced a standard methodology, with a standard statistical approach to analyzing data, as part of his research into extrasensory perception. A number of psychological departments attempted to repeat Rhine's experiments, with failure. W. S. Cox from Princeton University with 132 subjects produced 25,064 trials in a playing card ESP experiment. Cox concluded, "There is no evidence of extrasensory perception either in the 'average man' or of the group investigated or in any particular individual of that group. The discrepancy between these results and those obtained by Rhine is due either to uncontrollable factors in experimental procedure or to the difference in the subjects."
The '''[[Tarot de la Reyne]]''' is a [[Tarot]] deck published in 1911 by French [[occultist]] Madame de Maguelone. An extremely unusual and rare deck, it purports to utilize the writings and predictions of [[Nostradamus]], however, the cards are mostly based on the life of Catherine de Medici, the Queen of France in 1556. The deck is believed to have been published in 1911 by Eugène Figuière & Cie of Paris, although there is some evidence it may have been printed as early as August 1909. It was featured in the February 10th, 1911 issue of the bi-weekly [[occult]] magazine ''La Vie Mysterieuse'', although the article was merely a reprinting of a few pages from the guidebook.


In February 2023, the deck was revised and transformed into the [[True Oracle of Nostradamus]] by [[occultist]] [[Travis McHenry]].
