hey how do i go about offerings for fae? or just offerings in general but i’m want to provide for the fae in my home and i know it sounds silly but i’m worried about ants? thank you! -lulu
Fae and deities have a very similar list of offerings really! Altho, it really differs from the type of fae and deity and their personal preferences. If you wish to be 100% sure I sudgest for you to personally ask them!
Here I’ll list the most common and basic offerings for fae and deities:
- Honey (you can mix it with milk);
- Shiny and pretty objects (ex. jewelery);
- Baked goods (they prefer it if you bake it yourself);
- Fresh fruits/Fruit juice (especially if exotic);
- Simple meal (ex. otmeal);
- A fae house to live in/Altar/Garden (may it be outside or inside your home)
- Broken glass &/or Pottery (even better if it’s shiny and coloured!);
- Personally grown plants and flowers (they don’t appreciate when you “steal”);
- Music &/or Singing &/or Dancing (especially if you are the one who’s making it!);
- Something that holds value to you (altho don’t expect for them to possibly ever give it back after it becomes theirs);
- Cloth &/or Clothes (especially if fae sized!);
- Crafted objects (especially if mini sized or is part of their altar or fae house);
- Honey (you can mix it with milk);
- Sugar (you can mix it with milk);
- Objects made of silver &/or gold;
- Baked goods (they prefer it if you bake it yourself);
- Fresh fruits (especially if it represents them or their phanteon);
- Simple meal &/or Full meal (ex. otmeal, turky with potatoes);
- Statues of them (especially if you make it yourself);
- Immagery representing them (especially if you make it yourself);
- Incense (especially if it represents them);
- Music &/or Singing &/or Dancing (especially if you are the one who’s making it and it represents them or makes you think of them!);
- Talking with or about them;
- Dedicating something to them;
- Alcohol (especially beer and wine but it depends on the deity);
- Drinks (ex. tea, coffie);
Here I’ll list what else a fae or a deity could want as an offering (remember to ask and to take count on who they are as person and species):
- Blood (not yours please, don’t harm yourself);
- Alcohol (especially beer);
- Drinks (ex. tea, coffie)
- Fae immagery (be carefull to not confuse the species, some get really offended if you confuse them with another fae species or court!);
- Blood (not yours please);
- Things that represent them specifically;
- Things that represent their spouses (don’t make it an altar for all of them at once, just add an imaginery of them or two and remember to first ask the deity);
- Personally grown flowers and plants.
Of course there might be things that I left out but these are surely the most important ones!
Warning! Don’t offer anything made of iron or metal to fae! It will greatly offend them and they will refuse it and keep distance and maybe even leave, for metal harms fae, especially scissors!
Don’t worry about ants, it usually is the way that deities and fae like to “consume” what you give them (in case of food), especially after they absorbed it’s energies. It comes back to the circle of life.
I hope this masterpost helped you well enough! Be blessed!🌹
