Hi, I wanted to ask since you seem to know what you're doing. I'm not confident in my pendulum skills as I feel like it only tells me what I want to hear and I don't have tarot cards. I was wondering if you knew I'd there was a more definitive, trustworthy way of asking yes or no questions?

I want to communicate with my guides and ask them things but I really don't have a reliable way of asking, any help would be appreciated.

hii!!! i usually cleanse my pendulum with incense before using it to clear it from any negative energies, and before asking it questions i call upon my spirit guides and higher self with the intention "i call upon my spiritual team and higher self only, for the highest good of all, please come through and help me find the truth" and then i keep my pendulum steady with my dominant hand, and holding it a few centimeters away from my other palm, i start asking questions i already know like "are my eyes black? is my hair blue? am i wearing red?" just to calibrate it and see if it gives me the right answers, then I start asking the real questions and voilà, the job is done 🕊️

Hey! How can we find out a deity's preferred way of communication?

Hey sunshine! ☀️

That's a great question and one that I don't think I can give a definite answer on. Honestly my first instinct was to say "just ask" but I don't think that's helpful.

I think trial and error is the best way to figure that out. I went through a similar thing when I started working with angels actually. It took me a while of feeling things out before I concluded that Gabriel preferred tarot reading above any other form of communication, and that only came from trying other ways and seeing that they don't work for either me or him. I asked him once why he doesn't just speak to me (clairaudience) and he simply replied that he doesn't like it, it's uncomfortable. On the other hand, when Azazel came around, I had wanted to get a new pendulum to communicate with him and he simply said, "No need" and he's very eager to speak to me through clairaudience.

Some entities and deities will be straight up about it and simply start communicating with you through their chosen method, but sometimes you have to figure it out and that comes from trial and error in my opinion. Play around with things and see what works best, no one's expecting it to be perfect right away. Also, the way individual entities choose to communicate with certain people often varies so don't think that because your experience with a deity is different than someone else's it's wrong, and don't feel pressured to do what others do if it doesn't work for you. Your relationships with your deities are unique, and that's why sometimes it takes a bit to find your feet.

Thanks so much for asking sunshine! Ask about this on other blogs if you'd like, others will probably have better advice on this subject than I will. Also please feel free to DM me if I've misunderstood the question in any way.

Khaire! ☀️

✨Faeries ✨

Today we’ll be talking about Faeries! Also known as Fairies,  The Fae, The Fair Folk, The Honest Folk, The Little Folk, and many more. 

- What are faeries?: The answer to this differs between personal belief and cultures. What we do know is they are powerful, tricky, spirits found in nature. I personally like to think of them as nature spirits, having a specific connection to a place, like a river. Or a certain tree, plant, flower, element, ect. Each existing to protect or represent that thing, and be called on in its name. I also think faeries are specific extensions of the energies and correspondences surrounding the elements.  Where do I find them?:  As stated above, in nature! There are many different faeries, with different stories, associations, and things to offer. If there is nature, there are faeries.  Why should I work with them?: Let’s get this straight for those who are new, you do NOT have to work with or even believe in them to be a witch. That being said, Faeries can help as reconnect with nature, they can keep the nature that surrounds us safe too. For example helping and protecting a garden, they can help us in the way spells can too. They can help with luck, love, growth, happiness, just about anything you’d use a spell for. But don’t be fooled, faeries can also be tricksters. The majority of them are mischievous by nature. So beware, and stay safe. I’ll get into how to do that in a bit.  How do I work with them?:  Fae are similar to other spirits or Deities in that they have specialties, they can offer you help and advice. If you just want to keep on good terms with them or open up general communication and see where it goes you should go out into nature and leave an offering. Preferably near your house. If you want something specific, however, you should look into different kinds of Fae that are associated with that thing. To contact a specific fae, you could go somewhere that fae is associated with and leave an offering or do divination. You could meditate on the situation with them in mind. Summon them into a dream. It’s up to you and your practice.  Ways to honor them/offerings:  • Meditate and focus on them  • if you grown fruits and veggies, leave the last of it on the plant for them.  • Leave a bit of choice food like milk, bread, or wine out on the earth for them. They also like shiny things like jewelry, the finer things.  • Make an altar to them, especially to specific Fae.  • Leave a space near the fire for them.  Is there anything I shouldn’t do or be warned of?:  Yes! The Fae are mysterious creatures who can be easily offended. Here’s a list of do’s and don’ts when working with or communicating with The Fae.  DON’T be rude! Do not say anything disrespectful to the Fae, they consider themselves better than us and are more powerful and tricky than us. Often, much much older too. This also includes not snooping in a Faeries things or realm, not speaking of gifts or blessings they bring you, and not carrying iron with you or near them (it hurts them and WILL be seen as insulting or an attack.) And absolutely do not lie!  Always keep promises. This goes with the last tip, don’t lie to them and if you don’t keep a promise or deal the debt WILL be repaid either by your own hand, or perhaps less favorably by theirs. Do not accept a gift, say sorry, or thank you.  Once more on the topics of debts, doing any of these things implies you have a debt to them and you don’t want to find yourself in that situation.  Do not give them your name.  This gives them power over you. Instead say “You may call me ___.” Perhaps give them a nickname of yours.  Do not mention a child, especially an infant! The Fae love children but they may switch the child with a changeling or cause misfortune for the child if you anger them, do not risk it!  Do not dance with them or accept food or drink.  In folklore and stories this ends with dancing till death, or being forever tied to the Fae’s realm.  Mind your words.  The Fae are masters of trickery, they’re mischievous by nature. The Fae tend to take things literally, like genies in movies. You might not break any of these rules, yet they’ll still mess up what you ask for or wish for. Choose your wording VERY carefully, especially when asking for help.  How can I learn more?:  I would highly recommend The Fairy Bible by Teresa Moorey. She goes over just about anything and everything you’d want to know relating to Faeries. She also goes over many types of Faeries, including elemental faeries, weather faeries, tree faeries, flower faeries, and household faeries.  If you have anymore questions about the Fae feel free to message me! I adore this topic.  I hope this helped your or you learned something!  Enjoy! Have a lovely day 💖

After you get better, can you answer how can we contact our soulmate? 🤔

mm i’m feeling quite bored/lonely so i’ll do it now if you don’t mind..

so i have no idea how to do that. my methods are confusing and like.. there’s no gurantee of anything whatsoever xd i don’t think about it often tbh.. my mind was very preoccupied with ‘work’ lately. but you see, i heard that astral travel (which i don’t recommend too much) or lucid dreaming (which is a better option) can help! but from what i know lucid dreaming takes practice, like learning how to remember dreams (every night), during sleep time making an alarm often (like every hour or something?) so that you can dream while being concious in the dream (it won’t affect your body, because it’s just a dream and you will wake up) so in lucid dreams you can do whatever you want! so you could say ‘i wanna meet my soulmate and talk with them’ and do that! i hope this helped somehow!

what is a soul and why should I care?

I wrote this years ago and kept it to myself for a long time, but now seems like a good time to share.

lesser-known hellenic deities that deserve more love

i might do a more in-depth analysis of some of these deities’ lores later but for now here’s a short lil list. these are all deities i’ve either worked with or would like to work with in the future, so if you notice i’m omitting some that’s probably why (or i just forgot lol).

1. Bia - goddess of force and power

2. Morpheus - god of dreams 

3. Nyx - goddess of the night and darkness

4. Aether - god of the upper sky

5. Phoebe - goddess of radiance and brightness

6. Hypnos - god of sleep

7. Psyche - goddess of the soul

8. Tyche - goddess of fortune (more famous by her Roman name, Fortuna)

9. Anagke - goddess of destiny

10. Echidna - goddess of monsters

11. Kronos - god of time and (sometimes) chaos (not necessarily lesser-known, i just don’t know anyone who’s worked with him)

12. Peitho - goddess of seduction and persuasion

13. Dike - goddess of justice

14. Sphrosyne - goddess of self-control 

15. Terpsichore - goddess of singing and dancing

Herb master post

(smudging is a term from Native American that is not an open practice, smoke cleansing is called Smoke Cleansing, smudging is closed as well as white sage and san palo, important Native American herbs)

I would definitely look into what are closed practices, as to avoid any cultural appropriation as many things like ‘honey jars’ or hoodoo powders are actually from closed or semi closed practices. It is important to know where these come from and it’s cultures as to avoid closed practices appropriation and to use some things like Nazar or chakras to know the significance and actual history and if you can work with them or not. Especially with spells or Deities or anything new.

Some closed practices info (not all of the closed practices in the world)

I would definitely also look into some history of witchcraft and paganism (not just Wicca to the 1960’s history, but of the growth of witchcraft in the Renaissance era as well as traditional magic with the Greeks, to Celtic etc, as the impacts of those occultists, as some are very problematic like Crowley), as well as the impacts of other cultures and practices like Hinduism, Native American, Jewish Mysticism etc on modern western spirituality and giving that homage back to those cultures e.g chakras, yoga, spirit animals (closed practice), smudging, dream catchers, Kabbalah etc
