 Hello and thank you once again for joining me down at the crossroads for some music, magick, and Paganism. Where witches gather for the sabbath, offerings are made, pacts are signed for musical fame and we cross paths with today’s most influential Pagans, occultists, and deep thinkers. I am your bewitching, bald headed, host Chris Orapello and tonight Tara and I meet with the Modern Fortune Teller herself, Fiona Benjamin to discuss her background as a magickal practitioner and a professional Tarot reader. During the discussion we learn about some of Fiona's history as well as talk about Shenism and the African Tribal Religion known as Quimbanda which Fiona is an initiate of. To close we talk about her business website ModernFortuneTeller.com and some of the issues with running an online occult business and how to be a good online customer. Featured Songs:  "Maker of my Sorrow" by Eliza Rickman "Devil's Nettle" by Horse Cult "The Call of the Mountains" by Eluveitie "On My Way to Somewhere" by Eivør "We are Shangri-La" by S.J.

DatC #071 - Modern Fortune Teller, Fiona Benjamin

When I first started to read Tarot, I was just a fresh-faced 18 year old. By my early 20s, I was ready to start reading for other people but there was just one problem. I didn't look like most other Tarot readers, who were at least 20 years older than me! I had to figure out how I could still maintain credibility with my clients despite my age. Well, it turns out I'm not alone. My guest today, Fiona Benjamin, learned to read Tarot at 12 and started reading professionally at just 21. She hasn't let age get in the way and has since created a successful online Tarot business – the Modern Fortune Teller - serving clients from around the world. In this podcast episode, you'll learn:  How a strange and unique gift from Fiona's mum spurred an avid interest in Tarot How to steer clear of getting addicted to your Tarot deck Why just being yourself is essential for any Tarot   reader, at any age 3 success tips for young Tarot readers who are just starting out Why it's critical not to let social media and public opinion get into your head  Let's get into it! (And please excuse my croaky voice throughout the interview!)     Join the conversation here: www.biddytarot.com/21

BTP21: How to Succeed as a Young Tarot Reader with Fiona Benjamin

Join us Friday 6/5/15 at 8pm EST as Lady A and myself give a very southern welcome to the porch to Fiona Benjamin. We'll be interviewing this wonderfully talented fortune teller and occult devotee from New York City. She is a first generation American from a Chinese-Malaysian background and was raised in a traditional Buddhist household. Her gifts are divination through intuition along with the use of tarot cards. She received her certification in holistic tarot reading. Fiona has also been named Young Tarosophist of 2013 from the Tarot Professionals Association. She currently lives in Okinawa, Japan where she tarot cards full-time. She also runs the Pagans of Okinawa group and blogs about her esoteric interests. Make your calendars, this will be a GREAT show. We will be taking callers in the second half the show, for Q n A.
