The late medium Jeanne Dixon was renowned for many of her predictions that came to pass, but over her lifetime, she made so many that just based on the law of averages, she was bound to get a few right. Also, many were so vague and/or such a foregone conclusion, e.g. "there will be continued strife in the Middle East", that almost anything that happened could reasonably fit the prediction. Of course, no one ever remembers all the wrong predictions. Perhaps Lansing fits this category. It is even said of some indicators, e.g. the Hindenburg Omen, that they have accurately predicted 7 of the last 3 market crashes. Betting on false positives can be just as destructive to your account balance.
