Over the years we have profiled a lot of psychic readers here on Voodoo Universe, and this time around I am proud to present an interview with Arlo Wilde. Arlo is definitely the youngest professional reader we have explored here. I hope you enjoy the following interview. If you would like to get a reading you can find Arlo at Sassy Magick in New Orleans.
When did you start divining?
– I started when I was 7 years old, which is 7 years ago. I had asked my parents if I could learn Tarot, and they said yes! I taught myself until the age of 8, where I started to read Tarot.
With what method?
– I started with Tarot, then moved to adding on more things such as Pendulum work and Oracle.
Which method do you use most often now?
– I mostly use Tarot now, however it’s pretty balanced between Tarot, Oracle and Pendulum work. It simply depends on the question, and context.
How important is the choice/phrasing of the question?
– It’s semi-important for me. The phrasing can help it be more clear, however if you can get the question out in a way that I can understand, I am able to read it easily. To simplify it, as long as I can understand the question you’re good!
Do you have a yes/no method of divining you recommend?
– My recommendation for yes/no divination method is Tarot or Pendulum. For Tarot, I read it as Upright = yes, reversed = no. For pendulums, it depends on the pendulum/spirit you’re asking. Before you ask your question say “show me yes” and then “show me no”, this way it’s easy to understand the response you get.
Is there any advice you have for newcomers when using divination?
– Absolutely! I suggest making yourself a cheat sheet with all the information you learn or need to learn. It’s easy to go back to it, when needed. When I was learning Tarot at 7/8, I made myself a booklet with all the information I needed. Also, remember to take breaks! They are way more important than you think they are. Giving yourself burnout, will make it harder to learn.
Are there any new projects you are developing?
– I’m currently working on starting a Teen-coven! It will be 13-17 only, and will be a safe space for baby and/or closet witches trying to learn the craft. We will do group work, and still focus on individual at the same time.
