About Me

Hi, I’m Acidalia.

Or as the normies call me, Amanda.

To quote E.B.B. in Aurora Leigh, “witch, scholar, poet, dreamer, and the rest…”

In reality, I am and have been a lot of things. Story lover, musician, artist, writer, spiritualist, healer, medium, psychic, empath, occultist, and more…

I am a lifelong lover of stories, a reader, and an aspiring novelist. My mother is an English teacher who introduced me to the world of storytelling at a young age. I then as an adolescent, fell in love with performing, again storytelling of another sort. For many years I performed in musical theater productions before going to college for vocal performance and opera. At college, my voice lesson coach taught me about the depth and layers of story in opera, and how the musical components added to the emotional depth of the story being told. Though I have long left behind performing, I carried on my love of stories and have spent the last decade studying the art of storytelling. As an aspiring novelist, as well as previously being an editorial intern at a publishing house, I continued to use my love of stories to teach myself and others how to make their lives more magical!

Outside of my love of storytelling, I am a lover of knowledge! Studying history, religion, and the occult. I find myself seeking out everything I can learn to help better the life of myself and others. I started reading tarot as a divination method over a decade ago. It is a beautiful combination of two things I love– all things occult and spiritual, and stories! I started just reading for myself as a way to communicate with my own subconscious as well as what I thought of then as God or Source energy. Since starting to read tarot for others I have read for thousands of individuals from all over the world and from all sorts of backgrounds. My favorite thing to do though, is to teach you to do it for yourself! I have been teaching others to read tarot, as well as other forms of divination, for the last four years. I am not currently offering any services, but once I am, I will post about it here!

Though I have left behind structured religion, I still consider myself spiritual. I enjoy studying the history of spirituality, psychology, philosophy, as well as the occult. I am a witch, spiritualist, healer, energy worker, and occultist. As a medium, I also enjoy working with and communicating with spirits, though my practice is currently focused on the Venusian current. I have worked with, and continue to work with several Venusian deities some of which are Aset, Aphrodite, Venus, Lucifer, Astaroth, Hekate, and Persephone.

Thank you for being here and joining me on my journey of knowledge-seeking, self-evolution, healing, love, and of course– storytelling!
