better perhaps not but i prefer the pendulum

especially when using a pendulum board which is similar to a ouija board

I'm very new to the craft please explain pendulum board I got the pendulum part down thanks I feel like an idiot

Similar to ouija board. See http://pendulumcharts.com/charts.html

A pendulum board can be made similar to a Ouija board... with all the letters and numbers set out, as well as 'yes' and 'no' and other simple answers? The idea is to hover the pendulum over the board and let it indicate letters and answers. Or simplify it with just yes and no.

There is no one way of Divination that works best for everybody. We each have our own gifts and talents. I use nature.
