Hello, I would like to ask you what is the difference between a Spirit Guide, Spirit Guardian and a Familiar? Thank you! 🪁

🕊 Spirit Guides, Guardians and Familiars

People have different views on this topic and classify some of these differently, so feel free to create your own belief system. But in the end, Spirit Guides, Guardians and Familiars have the same purpose - work with us, guide us and help us. I personally put Guardians and Spirit Guides into the same category.

✨ Spirit Guides

Just like the name says - they are our guides, who meant to help us in this life. We all have them and reaching out to them shouldn't be very difficult. They are always looking after us.

Spirit Guides can have many different forms. They could be Angels, Ascended Masters, your ancestors (which is also a category for itself) or any other being. They can even present themselves as an animal.

They help us channel answers to any question we have and guide us towards reaching our highest potential. 

✨ Familiars

What usually first comes to mind when you hear the word familiar is an animal. But familiars also include spirits and entities. Familiars traditionally help with performing magick. 

You should have a very special and strong bond with them and they usually choose you, not the other way around. Your pet is most likely not your familiar. 

The difference between Familiars and Spirit Guides is that you need to get Familiars approval to work with them and create a special bond. While Spirit Guides are always with us, you don't need to even invite them into your life, you just need to start communicating with them.

🌙 New Moon in Pisces

✧ 13th March 2021

I’d call this the New Moon when Dreams come true. Not only because it is happening in Pisces, but also because of the significant transits happening at the same time. It is also the last new moon of this zodiac cycle!

At the time of the New Moon, we are experiencing Venus conjunct Neptune and Sun conjunct Neptune. I talked all about Sun conjunct Neptune here, but to mention some of its effects - vivid dreams, heightened psychic senses, possibility of falling into unhealthy addictions, deception.

Now, let’s talk about Venus conjunct Neptune. This is what makes the New Moon extremely significant, if you’ve been wanting to call love, creativity or romance into your life. It is the perfect moon to set your intentions for finding a new dreamy love and bringing more romance into your relationships!

But we also have to be careful about being too idealistic. Pisces and Neptune influence can easily make us become overly immersed in the daydream and lose track of the current reality. Watch out for deception from those around you. Do not over indulge and be careful about not falling into old toxic habits.

Lastly, like I mentioned before, our intuition and overall sensitivity is heightened. This is a great time for divination, dreamwork, meditation, shellwork and much more! 

Make some time for yourself and relax, I see that many of us will find a peace of mind, after a long period of shadow work, anxiety and emotional turmoil✨

✧ Set intentions for:

new love and romance

strengthening your spirituality and intuition

feeling creative, anything that has to do with art

beauty, pleasure, finances and harmony

I’ve been working on my Graphic Designer FMP (Final Major Project) for a while now. It surrounds on the 8 Sabbats from the Pagan Wheel of the Year, that I’ve been studying for the last 6 months. 

Needed a visual representation for the article, so made these mood boards. I hope it represents well since I admire this religion/culture so much!!  ✨

Plan to share more about the project when I can.

Blessed be!  💕

How to Predict Timing with Tarot

When performing a Celtic Cross, there are three cards that can reveal when the event will happen: the advice, the outcome, and the card at the bottom of the deck. While your intuition will tell you which is most likely, it is best to acknowledge all three possibilities.

THE MAJOR ARCANA

The Fool – Whenever you are ready

The Magician – It has already begun

The High Priestess – You know exactly when

The Empress – During harvest season

The Emperor – It is almost done

The Hierophant – It is finished

The Lovers – As soon as you make the choice

The Chariot – In just a few moments

Strength – The minute you accept it

The Hermit – Only after you meditate on it

The Wheel of Fortune – During your first or next Saturn return

Justice – When you least expect it

The Hanged Man – When the circumstances change

Death – Whenever it is ready

Temperance – After the storm

The Devil – It is happening right now

The Tower – Soon, unexpectedly and suddenly

The Star – The more you believe, the sooner it will happen

The Moon – It cannot be determined at the moment

The Sun – In the summer or by sunrise

Judgement – Soon and inevitably

The World – In divine timing

THE MINOR ARCANA

THE SUIT OF WANDS

Ace of Wands – One day

Two of Wands – Two days

Three of Wands – Three days

Four of Wands – Four days

Five of Wands – Five days

Six of Wands – Six days

Seven of Wands – Seven days

Eight of Wands – Eight days

Nine of Wands – Nine days

Ten of Wands – Ten days

Page of Wands – As we speak

Knight of Wands – End of November to most of December

Queen of Wands – End of March to most of April

King of Wands – End of July to most of August

A few tips for my fellow faekin

Here are some things that I’ve been doing to help me connect with myself.

❥ Glitter. Glitter is so ethereal and magical and amazing. It doesn’t have to be messy. I use one from Stila (I don’t remember the exact product) in the shade Kitten. If glitter is a bit much, try a shimmery highlight.

❥ Body art. A custom from my old village was body art. I like to paint all types of flowers on myself to remind me of it.

❥ Fairy Ears. Invest in some latex fairy ears and some stuff to stick them on with. They last for years and they’re so easy to use. However, if you must put makeup on them, only use powdered makeup. Liquid makeup will wear down the latex.

❥ Dancing. I don’t like meditation very much, so twirling around like a faerie really helps me get into the mindset.

❥ Nature. Go outside more or open a window. Read up on different plants and animals in your area (I have a book called Nature Anatomy that’s very lovely and has such pretty artwork.)

❥ Witchcraft. Learn more about witchcraft and practice magic. It helps bring back the feeling of how magical being a faerie is.

I hope these help and feel free to add your own💕🌸🌻

[themori-witch]

You’ve probably heard of runes and you’ve probably seen them throughout popular culture media, - they’re often used in fantasy based television shows and films. It is likely that the runes you have seen are Elder Futhark Runes (old Norse ones - we’ll cover that later) but the ones featured in this post, are Witches Runes. They’re often inscribed on stones or used in rituals.

Crossroads: use if you’re going through a change, have decisions to make or wish to bring about change.

Man: use in magick that deals with men (naturally!), masculinity, or (if you’re religious) the strength of your God(s).

Woman: use in magick that deals (again, naturally!) with women, femininity, or to invoke any Goddesses you have.

The Eye: use in psychic workings or dealings with truth; to reveal deception, for example. Used also in/for protection.

Harvest: use for prosperity and abundance magick, dealings with money or to attract something good to your life.

The Sun: use for growth and happiness, strength and masculinity and for invoking any deities that are associated with the Sun. Use also in protection magick and on Sabbats.

The Moon: femininity and magick. It enhances power and is used in the invocation of deities associated with the Moon and during Esbats.

Flight: higher knowledge and the attraction of something new; success and business ventures - brings about new opportunities.

The Rings: used for binding and attracting new love; it strengthens existing bonds.

Romance: naturally, this attracts new love and/or romance. Used in sex and fertility magick and heals broken hearts.

The Scythe: used to break curses and hexes; removes bad luck and influences and can be used to break or weaken bonds and relationships.

The Star: a wishing rune that, when meditated on, brings about good fortune and good luck.

Waves: symbolizes purity and can be used for forgiveness and healing, as well as the expulsion of bad and negative energies.

Soothing Bath Spell

This is a nice spell for soothing aches, pains, anxiety, and/or stress.

Materials:

organza or muslin pouch

dead sea salt or Epsom salt

lavender oil

olive oil

white candle (cleansing and healing)

1 tsp dried lavender buds

½ tsp dried rosemary

½ tsp dried chamomile

Draw a warm bath. Fill the pouch half way with the salt, then add the dried lavender, rosemary and one drop of lavender oil. Tie the pouch closed and add it to the bath water (you can add more than one pouch, if you like). Once the water is scented from the herbs, get in the bath, soak and relax. As you relax, say the following chant.

“Aches and pains in my way, take their leave of my body today. No more agony of body or mind, I leave my troubles and stress behind. Lavender, rosemary, chamomile, and water, cleanse my being. Make me once again healthy and whole.”

After you’ve dried off, carve your name into the candle and anoint it with a dab of olive oil, then burn it until extinguished (don’t leave it burning unattended).

This spell is not meant to be used as a substitute for medical care. Adapted slightly from [source].

🌸 Fairy lore 🌸

Fairies often try to extinguish Midsummer bonfires via whirlwind, but can be stopped if fire is thrown at them.

Leaping through the Midsummer bonfire protects one from fairies.

Driving cattle through the embers of the bonfire with protect them from them from the attention of evil spirits.

In order to escape the chase of fairies, cross a stream of running water.

Carry rue in your pocket to ward off evil fairies.

If you are being pixie-led or troubled by fairies, turn your clothes inside out to confuse them and then make a run for it.

If your companion is being dragged into a fairy circle, throw in one of your gloves and they will disperse giving your companion time to escape.

Scatter flax on you floor to keep fairies out of your bedroom.

When confronted by fairies show them any form of iron and they should vanish as they are terrified of iron. Lore says to keep a knife or nail in your pocket or under your pillow at night.

Hanging a Hag Stone above your door frame will keep evil fairies at bay.

Rowan wood tied into a cross with red thread will protect the hearth when hung up somewhere high.

A besom placed beside the fireplace will stop fairies from coming down chimneys.

Burying a Witch Bottle in front of your doorstep will also provide protection from pesky fairies.

Oatmeal sprinkled on clothes or carried in pockets will keep bad fairies at bay.

 St. John’s wart prevents fairies from carrying you off while you sleep.

Mulberry trees in the gardens will keep away evil fairies. Dancing counterclockwise around a Mulberry tree at Midsummer will also aid in this

Toilet paper pill box.

Another small fun project for recycling! These are perfect for little gifts and a cute way to send your jewelry to customers… it not only give a nice shell of protection to the treasures you put inside, its cost free, customizable and keeps recycling on the mind <3

All you need are - toilet paper rolls - decor ( i used stamps) - Tape or glue

Step one: decorate your roll. I used some of my stamps, but don’t limit yourself to just that… you can use old paper, photographs, tissue paper, paint,sharpie and whatever else you have laying around to decorate. Mod podge and some pattered paper would be fun!

Step two: Once your roll is decorated to your liking, fold down the corners on one end, making it look like little cat ears. Make sure they fold over each other so there is no open gap, and tape down  ( you can also glue the end down) * side note… if you dont like the look of regular tape, they sell something called washi tape? that comes in all sorts of amazing patterns!

-Step three: When you have some side sealed and taped down, wrap and place your item/treasures inside the box ( i wrapped up some earrings) and seal the other end, again making sure they fold over one another so there are no gaps.

- Step four… your done!

Again these are wonderful for gift giving and product packaging. Small, sturdy, cheap, recycled pill boxes…. you can use old paper towel rolls too! those are larger and can fit a bit more than TP rolls.

You know

I saw a post recently saying something among the lines of "empathy is just caring about others! All witches are empaths! Claircognizance is simply divination! Anyone can be claircognizant!" and while I understand it's a matter of wanting to be inclusive? That's not what empathy and claircognizance are.

I'm an empath, that means I FEEL myself, whatever people around me are feeling, and not just that, I'm also a claircognizant, which has taken me years to acknowledge and learn to understand how my gift works, but basically:

If I go to a place where someone has died a horrible death, and their spirit is still there, crying in loneliness, I don't just "feel bad for the spirit, divine with tarot to see what's going on, help them pass!"

I might not even know the place is possesed, and still I will start feeling an extreme pain in my chest, eyes, feel my eyes get wet, the type of headache you get after crying for hours, or even start crying for no reason.

And not just that, I feel all of that, and then a message just pops in my head, out of nowhere apparently 👀, saying "there's a grieving spirit here". Just, I know. I shouldn't know. But I do.

Once I was reading for someone and I felt a huge headache and my eyes watering when I connected to their energies. My gifts reacting to their energies, even being in a different continent, because I have learnt to do that to make my readings as accurate as they are.

So I asked the person "have you been crying lately?" and the answer was yes. I shouldn't have known, I wasn't there, they didn't give me any clues. But my gifts don't lie.

As easy as that, not every person is an empath, not every person is claircognizant, clairaudient, etc. It's not a bad thing. Just like not all of us are blonde, not all of us have the same gifts. Get over it.

But please stop trying to make definitions fit because you don't want to feel "less" than other spiritual practitioners. Because you are not less, you are simply different. Accept yourself and seriously fuck off with those weird definitions that make no sense just to make us all "equally gifted" 🤷‍♀️ learn what your gifts are and how to use them, not how to appropiate and misuse terms from other practitioners!

[moon-lightfaerie]

yes exactly! Being an empath is so much more than just caring for others...as an empath myself it isn’t always fun. Couple days ago I came home and had trouble breathing, felt as if someone was pushing on my chest which was weird because I’ve never felt that. I don’t have breathing problems and it’s not like I was working out heavily or inhaling smoke, it turns out my mom was having breathing problems with her asthma. Going out into public is also hard because I feel people’s sadness, frustration or physical pain because I come into contact with their energy. Although you can develop these psychic gifts not everyone is naturally psychic and that’s okay! Not all witches are psychic and not all psychics are witches.
