Sigils For All Intents And Purposes!!

i think what’s on a person’s nightstand is very telling so reblog this and put in the tags the things you have on your nightstand

omg please drop the silmarillion oracle deck bestie…. if there’s a link even better 🥺 i’m so obsessed

Of course! I think I’ll do a couple at a time- there’s a lot, and they’ve all got individual backs!

✨Faeries✨... and why you shouldn’t mess with them for now

I am an experienced faerie witch. I do not recommend faerie work for the beginners. It’s just not something you can dive headfirst into!

Faerie witchcraft is the path where you work with the fae to accomplish spells, divination, and other spirit work. However, unlike spirit work, the fae are extremely temperamental and should not be called upon for trivial matters.

When working with the fae, it’s important to keep manners in mind. Sometimes it’s unavoidable (glares at my dumbass parents who thought I was joking about the faeries in the yard), but unless you’re like me, and thought faeries were the coolest and learned literally everything about them even before starting witchcraft, then you probably have no clue of faerie etiquette.

Here’s a handy-dandy list of the basics!

Do not leave offerings only during spell work! This tells them this is payment and that you only want to use them. It irritates them, just like when someone goes up to you and goes “Here’s this thing, now do xyz for me!” No one likes that.

No thank yous or you’re welcomes. Also reads as part of a bargain. If you say thanks for doing something, then they will assume you are bringing them a thing in return and hassle you until you do so. Saying you’re welcome is like you’re graciously accepting this gift they’ve given you... when you haven’t given them anything...

If you bake something, try to leave them some. They like the tasty sweets.

All faeries are different. Some like red, some like blue. Some get incredibly offended if you give them lemon loaf cake and will kill your sage. Some do not have genders or pronouns, and will inflict bodily harm if you don’t call them by their names (In case you can’t tell, this is stuff that’s happened to me..). In any case, keep their preferences in mind.

No iron offerings.

No chocolate (generally; if they express interest in chocolate, make sure they can have it and then give it to them. One of the garden faerie is allergic to chocolate but eats it like a lactose intolerant person eats ice cream.)

When in doubt, ask! But be aware, faeries do lie. Like rugs, in fact. They lie by omission usually, but they do it often- the pixie called out the garden faerie about the chocolate allergy. *rage intensifies*

Anyways, that’s all I can think of for now! I’m always open to questions, so drop me an ask!

Absolutely!

@maithewitch that sound about right?

Eco Friendly Ingredients part 2~

I’m back, friends!

This time, we’re going to explore the wonderful world of

Crystals and Minerals!

Since everyone likes shiny rocks, and since crystals and minerals are found literally everywhere, I figured this was the next logical step in this undertaking.

When you go out looking for crystals at a specialty store, make sure you get ethically sourced, wholesale rocks, or rocks grown in a lab. I know witches on both sides, and I get where each are coming from.

If you get rocks you know are ethically sourced (i.e not through unpaid labor like *blood diamonds*), then good for you. Sometimes, witches are broke, and can’t drop a crap ton of money on rocks. That’s where lab grown rocks come in. 1000% cheaper, same rocks (arguably). Regardless, know where your rocks are coming from.

It might be helpful to have a little guidebook on rocks to help you identify what you have, especially if you’re going for cheap tumbled rocks like what you find in a gift store. Then you know what you have!

I hope this was helpful, and not some incoherent rambling. If you have any requests for the next installment of the Eco-Friendly Ingredients, please let me know!

cancellation sigil

I have only ever seen one (1) sign like that and it’s in my hometown on the way to my parents’ house. There is in fact one (1) owl, and he doesn’t in fact fly low, he just scared a lady so badly one night she crashed her car and then called the city demanding they put that sign up.

Welcome to Oklahoma USA folks.

Love it when my oracle cards are ominous.

Lol.

Also look at my beautiful solstice candle that my parents got me!! My Catholic dad made himself go into a witchy shop to get it.

I made a tiny spell book! The design is simply a thing that came to mind when I thought about the person I made it for, so I guess it’s KINDA like a sigil? I dunno, it’s just what my witchy brain said to stick on it.

It’s a beautiful chunk of quartz.. smokey white quartz.. it looks like a dragon egg, though.. just a little bit.
