Okay, so I got bored and started researching.
---
I believe the "Compass of Seidh" possibly derives from the word "Seiðr." Seiðr is the Norse term for witchcraft and sorcery, and within the description of "Compass of Seidh" there is an explanation about Guardians and such, being possibly that the Compass actually does have some thing to do with the term "Seiðr."
Therefore, in the Compass of Seidh, you should expect to see items based off of Norse Gods such as Freyja, Loki, Odin, Thor, and such.
---
Then I researched the Mizuchi's Jewel. Mizuchi is the traditional old Japanese name of "4-legged dragon" or "hornless dragon." It mainly refers to the "water snakes" or "sea serpents" in Japanese mythology. These deities had a control over water, rain, and the sea. in the item description it also describes the battle of two deities. In history, a great human and a mizuchi once fought a great battle.
Therefore, in Mizuchi's Jewel, expect some water dragon-like poses, along with some water warrior, and water god type poses in this item.
---
In the Hidden Ace item, you see in the early phases some spirits of the suits. If you've noticed, the hair of these spirits also became hair poses later on in the evolution. Of the four suits known, we have seen the King of Clubs, Queen of Hearts, and Jack of Diamonds. The next possible pose is possibly the Ace of Spades. Thus the new hair pose will also match the Ace spirit suit.
Therefore, expect the next evolution of the Hidden Ace to give you some short black bowl hair and possibly some cool "Ace" poses because the Ace of Spades is a very prestigious rank in cards.
---
Trivia: Did you know that most, if not all, of the poses in the Seracila Pendant are named after Stars, Constellations, and/or Greek/Roman characters in history? The biggest star known to man is called the "VY Canis Majoris." Don't be surprised if some of the final poses of the item is named after this star! Expect something... BIG!
---
=) That's all for my hypotheses for these items. Any ideas, questions, comments, or anything else about my ideas or anything related to what I just typed an essay about? XD

That be awesome that the compass would be something to do with magic. I kinda researched the first 2 cause I know past EI are tied in with lore and myths with twists. Like Inari Beads for an example.
Hidden Ace most likely to do with magic tricks. Hence the top hat, the cape, and the magic wand in the earlier phase. Later on, the items become more and more like magic tricks. Except the last 2 evolutions which revolves around the queen and king. We will have to see the end results when Ace is finished it evolution

xd It's funny cause when you look at the Hidden Ace's lowest price in history, it's around 300k. And when you look at it now, it's over 1.1 million!
If you invested in the Hidden Ace, you made your time worthwhile alright. =)
I almost feel like selling my Hidden Aces just to get multiple Compass of Seidh's so then I could sell them for a high later on.
=D That's why I like to do these predictions. I feel like I'm a stock broker in the Gaian economy, but all I'm here for is just to help. =)
---
My advice, sell your items and invest in any new 999 Gaia Cash item while it's cheap, you'll more than likely get a good profit if the item turns out worthy in the end.
By the way, try to invest into the new slippers that Gaia just released to the public for the new Anniversary. More than likely they'll rise in price just like the Coco and Kitti slippers did.
And other advice, keep in touch with my Gaia EI, market, and economy predictions and advice. =) I always get over 50% of my predictions correct. Although... sweatdrop I'm not sure if double guessing myself really counts as a solid prediction but yeah.. ahahaha...
---
By the way, I know it's wrong but... if you guys want to help me cheat the market, PM me and I'll explain the details later. ;D Meant for extremely rich people by the way, you have to have money to get money.. sweatdrop aha..

Popular items do go sky rocketing high prices like the Gough Reed, Kottan Bell, and Roullette. Pendant and the compass will hit that mark once they are done.
I wonder if I should pick up another compass >.>

And so... speaking of cheating the Market...
I have two Hidden Aces that could sell for 1.1M each right now.
If I sell them both I could get about 2.1k at least adding in taxes and other possible issues.
Right now the Radio Jack item sells for about 600k to 800k each. And as of right now they have 4 being sold in market right now. With the 4 being sold under the prices of 590k, 600k, 600k, and 800k.
At most I can buy the 590k, 600k, and 600k Radio Jacks. Radio Jacks are prized mostly for their Wing pose.
If you resell the items at a price higher than 800k, the 800k market item could soon be bought seeing that it is the cheaper of the items is the 800k priced Radio Jack. Then that forces people to buy your Radio Jacks next if there are none others, making you gain an income of about 200k or so for each Radio Jack sold.
You can also try selling the Radio Jack back in market for a price slightly lower than the 800k Radio Jack but also higher than what you bought them for. Say you bought all the 590k, 600k, and 600k Radio Jacks, leaving only the 800k Radio Jack left. Just simply sell one of your own for about 790k or so and you will definitely get the first sale if no one else lists a cheaper one.
---
You can apply this same method to other rare items. Jacking up the price is probably not morally correct, but I never heard it was illegal! ;D

I'm excited for the Hidden Ace, I love the poses that they have for them now. Before I wasn't too sure with the Magic tricks with the top hat and the magic wand but it's really turning out to be awesome.
I really love all of the new EIs. I love that it's about different types of mythology or names of the Constellations are really neat too.

What do ya'll think of the new EI poses for the Jewel and the Compass?
I love the Jewel's fish bottom half item, it's very cool. I'm not too sure about the tail, it kind of looks off like it's a giant tadpole tail (or a giant Pokemon, I can't decide which).
I really wasn't especting the black and white outfits but I do like the silver plate with the light blue glow at the end and the blue star with a tail at the bottom going in front of the avatar. Very nice touches on the poses.

>w> I was a bit upset about the Mizuchi's Jewel... But this is still too early for anything big too, so I'm hoping it'll be something interesting later on.
As for the Compass... it's actually really awesome. =D

Yemaya's Pearl is actually based on the Voodoo goddess. :3
Alot of the EI's are based on mythology.
I'm not sure if we'll see any Norse God's in Seidh's Compass but I'm sure we'll see alot of winter accessories and something involving a journey.

Miyu: Your services, for EI Prediction, that is, would be most welcomed in Team Sprocket and Organization EI. ninja
As for the EI Predictions:
Seracila Pendant: is more so Astrological than anything. (1x)
Hidde Ace: for the finale, most likely Ace of Clubs as well as maybe extra-new poses? (2x)
Mizuchi's Jewel: I don't own one nor to care to own one. sweatdrop
Compass of Seidh: Actually, I highly believe it won't just be winter-themed. ninja It'll go in the different directions/cultures due to the path it chooses as if on a Compass. ninja Then again, that's what some people predict in the Compass of Seidh's fanthread. ninja Norse Mythology will prose a new location each evolution. wink (2x) Also, as you can see from my current avatar, I am pretty sure you all can conclude how I feel about this EI. 
I am part of Team Sprocket and Organization EI (Number VIII: The Hidden Ace) so forgive me for advertising them. sweatdrop

Er, the Norse live within the tundra climate. =P It's no surprise if the Compass of Seidh starts off with a few winter themed goods.
By the way, the Hidden Ace's next evolution should be the Ace of Spades, not the Ace of Clubs. Clubs was already King.

The tundra climate? I didn't know that. Okay then the winter clothes makes sense. I'm excited to see what the Hidden Ace has in store. I hope that the bring out more eye poses and hair poses, those are my favorite.
