It is said to be exceedingly hard to learn to read the alethiometer. This skill may take years of study and practice to perfect. However, children have a special gift for learning. Hence, Lyra was able to master the alethiometer quickly by relying on intuition and logic. Maybe you can be the next great alethiometrist!
How to Read the Alethiometer
You must express your question in terms of a combination of three alethiometer symbols, based on the symbols’ primary or secondary meanings. Once you have formulated your question and selected the appropriate symbols, calm your mind and reflect on the question for a moment. When your mind is quite still, touch the center of the dial and wait for the answers to reveal themselves through the alethiometer. With experience, you may refine your understanding of the symbols and develop a deeper, more personalized interpretation. There is no limit to the depth you can achieve!
The trial version gives only two answers.
The full version gives a variable number of answers and allows sending them through electronic mail.
Well of course I knew this wouldn't be real but it's still a dissapointment because I have been having a kind of crisis or the series lol oh well
It's nice, although it would be even cooler if it was like the movie one - you could open and close it and it looked exactly like the one Lyra had in the movie. Other than that, it's still cool to use.
I could not get this to function. I could only choose from three symbols per knob and touching in the center didn't make the dial spin until I had done it many times. When it did, it went to two items and only displayed each on the screen for a moment, then covered them with the nag screen to buy the full version. Not a useful trial if I can't see the end result. Disappointing.
It's ok. Pretty fun little toy. I'm saving up for a real one (movie replica) though. Also, If you want all the symbol definitions just go through with the knobs and write down what it says and you can have all the definitions.
