Pagan Community - Blog Posts
I don't know who needs to hear this but it's ok if you can't hear your deities talking, whether physically or mentally
It's ok if you don't dream with them
It's ok if you can't feel their presence
It's ok, darling!
They still love you. They love you very dearly, just as much as you love them!
Tarot Cheat Sheets!! (Minor Arcana)
Hi everyone! I made these tarot cheat sheets just in case anyone needs them :)
Meetin folks
Heya friends! This post is a bit different than my normal posts, but I’ve been in a bit of a rut lately.
I’m a trans, gay Irish/Celtic pagan and folk practitioner, and I haven’t been able to find a community wherein I’m able to thrive like this. None of my friends practice paganism, and it can be hard not having folks to talk to, even though it seems so trivial. In most queer spaces, spirituality is sort of laughed off, and if anyone has any resources, or is in a similar spot as I, please let me know!
I apologize for the downer vibe of this post, but I just hope folks stay happy :D
If you want to connect, lmk! 🤍
spirituality as a system is so funny because now i have to worry about introjecting a random deity. like what do you mean i can just be minding my business and now loki is in mybrain like PLEASEEE
Hello fellow Witches and Pagan,
For a while, I have been trying to connect with my southeast Asian culture (I’m from Laos 🇱🇦),) and so I have been trying to find specific witch practices from Southeast Asia or Lao. So both me and my practice can grow closer to my culture. . But I still haven’t been able to find any good resources, so any suggestions on where I can do more research would be amazing. Thank you!!!
Cactus🌵🌺
for those who have Cactus in their house or wish to have one You should keep in mind that there are certain types of Cacti that are better to have outside the house, for example: those types of cacti that are very large and have large spikes. since on the spiritual side spiked plants are generally used for defensive "magic" and in closed spaces this can cause fights and arguments in your home. It is best to have a small cactus with not very large spikes for the interior of your home. I want to clarify that this applies to other types of plants that are also pointed. image:desertgardencare
The way it describes the world determines how we will value and experience it.

how to load and clean quartz
1: put it in the water This is because water helps to clean, which is why it is used in cleaning "spells". but this cannot be done with all quartz because it could be damaged. so it is important to find out well. 2:put it on the earth this is so that the quartz discharges all the accumulated energy and it also helps to charge you with the energy of mother earth. 3:put it "near a candle" this because fire is a symbol of purification and helps to purify and clean the accumulated energy of your quartz. 4:put it in a place where the moonlight hits it to charge it with lunar energy. 5:put it in a place where sunlight hits it to charge it with solar energy. 6:put it in "lunar water". 7:put it in "solar water".

other data to take into account:
*it is better to collect it before the sun "rises".
*this is so it cannot be touched by sunlight,porque no lo puede tocar la luz solar.
*not all crystals or (quartz) can be added with water as this could "wear out" or "dilute"
I want to add one thing that may be a bit obvious
but it is necessary to remember.
They can substitute one candle for another in case they don't have it in hand when they need it.
for example: if you are going to do something related to love, you would normally use a pink candle but you can substitute a red candle.

💀Atropa Belladonna💀
Atropa Belladonna
Atropa means "cruel or inexorable"
in Greek, logically alluding to the deadly properties of the plant. It is also called "beautiful woman" because before women used to use parts of this plant to make a solution that they used to put in their eyes to dilate the pupils and make them "bigger" and "attractive" for men. this plant is associated with Saturn and Venus.
voodoo dolls.
Voodoo dolls are generally made or made with cloth and filled with cotton. but they can be made of any other type of material. such as: with corn leaves or wax. on New Orleans they do it with wooden sticks and they fill it with Spanish moss, cover it with cloth and finish making the details. and it has different uses, it is not only to inflict damage. It can be used to represent a person and help him with health problems for example. or any other kind of problem. You can also fill in with specific things: *personal "objects". *or some "herbs". and put more details if you wish. Or you can use it to make a representation of yourself and this in turn will be an "extension" of you and you can put it on your altar. so that a part of you is "accompanying" to the altar. Before using it, in general, before using it, it is "baptized" in the name of the person who is going to represent the doll.
and it is made "holy water".
or with any other type of water that is used within the "magic".
Altar of the ancestors(altar of the dead)
when making the Altar of the ancestors it is necessary to take these things into account: 1:not place it on the ground because it is believed that this attracts the "low astral" 2:the altar must be colaco on a base or place that is wood 3:If you are going to place a tablecloth, it is best to be white and "bright" or "happy" colors, but never in dark colors or black. 4:when placing photos of the ancestor he has to be alone, he cannot be accompanied by people who are still alive. 5:you can place offerings such as things they used to enjoy in life. like food, some garment or flowers. 6:you should always refer to them with great respect. 7:not ask them for things like they were some kind of "Genius" I mean asking them for help in situations that really deserve them. you can tell them to guide you, advise you or guide you. 8:you can also place some "religious" images or objects although this is not mandatory .
Modern Male Witch Project: Masterpost
A personal project that has become very important to me: male witches in their private dens, with their belongings surrounding them that show what kind of person they are and what kind of magic they practice. I try to make every single piece emit peace and comfort, but with a magical twist!

About fairies (Art: by Brian Froud)
fairies are metaphysical and symbolic beings.
In Animism it is believed that any natural element has life, soul and consciousness of its own.
It could be said that one of them are the fairies that are energy found in any natural element and that can also be manifested through it, they do not have a specific physical form but they can take a certain physical form
more specifically that of humanoid since generally this is how we usually associate them in that way by representations in art and folk tales and take the form of what we are famerialized with, which in this case is how we see them or (persist).
Are they good or bad? many believe that there are fairies or Faery beings who are: good and others who are bad.
others: that in reality they are neither good nor bad, rather they have no reasoning that it is good or bad, or rather that they do not know how to differentiate between what is good and what is bad
just like nature which is where they come from.
for some others: they tend to be temperamental so they should be treated with respect and not offend if they are so, they will play practical jokes on you and can "steal" and hide your things or even "reverse" "luck".
the Faerie world and the world of the dead: Fairies are seriously believed to be the spirits of the dead, fairies were dead people, perhaps sometimes dating back to pre-Christian times, and that the land of fairies was a transcendent land of the dead, which, in special circumstances , it could be penetrated by the living.
An ingrained tradition is that fairies are the dead pagans (or perhaps post-Purgatory Christians not good enough for heaven but too good for hell), living in a world of limbo, occasionally coinciding with our own. A story that captures this idea well was compiled by folklorist William Bottrell in Cornwall in the early 1870s.
the fairies taboo :The taboo of fairies are restrictions or prohibitions that are set by fairies and that if they are broken have consequences and These consequences are almost always (although not exclusively) harmful for the human protagonists of the stories.
How to protect yourself from fairies that only want to do harm?putting iron horseshoes since they are believed to protect and ward off evil and it is also believed that it burns and drives away fairies. I want to make it clear that all the information not only refers only to fairies, it also refers to all beings related to fairies such as: elves, nogmos, etc, etc, etc.
