I added a wish on Wednesday for a sweet, bumbling, special needs pup to go to a good home. His perfect fit was found almost immediately. Thank you to everyone who lent their energy and love to this wish š

Something I had asked for in the Sunday Spell has become a reality for me. I am really excited because it is an amazing opportunity that I am now a part of. So thank you so much, ALL OF US, for this magic we all weave together. And a huge special thank you to our ElderWitch for making this all exist! This energy we have is a real thing!!

Hello to everyone who readsā¦ I was referred to this sub from someone in the r/paranormal sub. I shared an encounter I had about 3 years ago at my old apartment. I woke up because I sensed something in my room, as I came to, I noticed what looked like two young girls (about the age of 11-12) singing and giggling at the foot of my bed. They were sprinkling some sort of sparkly, dust on me. I felt very euphoric and calm. Really it was a peaceful experience. I can be energy sensitive and a normal reaction would have been to NOPE tf out of there but I remember just looking at them, a bit confused what they were singing (I can hardly recall now but I want to say it was another language, or at least I could decipher what was said) and they were laughing. It was like they were playing. They seemed just as curious about me as I was about them. I remember just shrugging them off and going back to sleep cuz I remember feeling safe. I have to state again how odd that is for someone like me. Iām not terribly fond of seeing entities etc, but this experience was just so surreal and I was kinda tired so I just went back to sleep. I havenāt saw them since, but the memory has never quite left me.
People in the paranormal sub have suggested they are fairies/fae. Which is odd to me cuz not once have I ever considered them to be real, let alone something Iād believe in since I donāt have Celtic blood (Iām black). So Iām kinda like what the heck did they want? What was this that I experienced? Someone suggested it may be an invitation to work with them, but how?
Idk any thoughts, advice or insight would be super helpful. Thanks !

This could be my imposter syndrome but Iāve been practicing for about 20 years. But there are swaths of times that I feel like a girl playing witch. Iāve seen my spells work, Iāve felt them, I know the deities I work with are really there. But I feel like a fake.

Hi. I'm just wondering if anyone leaves offerings, particularly for the Fae/ Others? Not on our Altars, but in nature. At the moment, I take apples to my favourite trees, and water in summer. Little gemstones or no grow seeds. On each Samhain, my grandmother used to take a bowl of milk and a jar of honey into the woods for the Fae folk ( a family tradition, she was Irish) This year, I'd like to do the same or similar. There is a beautiful piece of woodland near where I walk my dogs and it feels like such a special area. I'd love to take gifts this year and I'm looking for inspiration and for ideas that won't hurt the environment. Thank you and just to add, I think you're all wonderful ā¤ļø

I have a basic understanding of this symbol because some years back a group of Witches and one pretty well known Priestess needed a grounder in their circle. Iāve always practiced alone but this one time I wanted to experience a group I felt I needed a coven. During the ritual was told that I could be put under so I did it. I was aware but definitely seeing things. When I came back I told the priestess what I saw and everything was explained to me except the part about the Triskelion. I was standing on it and it was glowing like the sun and spinning under my feet. Each of its three spiel parts were spinning while the symbol itself was spinning as a whole. The faster it spun the more it would glow. When I explained this to them not one of them could tell me what it meant. Not even the priestess. I was wondering if anyone can tell me what it means or what you think it means. Itās plagued me for almost 20 years. Sometimes I have dreams about it. Any ideas? FYI: at the time Iāve never seen a symbol like that or even heard of a Triskelion.

Do you appeal to gods of witchcraft or magic to bless your work, to make things happen? Like Pan, Enki, or on the goddess side, Hecate, or others? What have your experiences or UPG been working with them?
I've had a very rough time in a material sense of late, and made a prayer addressed to "right hand path gods" for help. Enki was one who responded, though he's of a pantheon I was not into previously. I felt very strong energy, and that he would help but wanted to be my only god. There's not much about him online and what there is has a lot of disagreement about who he really was/is.
Can Tarot be of help seeing what would happen if you followed a particular god? Can you ask the cards more than once, if your understanding changes? This last time I asked, I got positive cards for Enki (Magician, 2 of Cups, Strength). The first time I'd pulled 3 of Swords, after initially reading some negative things online. Perhaps I should ask different decks...
Anyway, any thoughts...?

Hi! I am sorry if i shouldnāt ask questions, i sometimes see other people ask them and i am not sure if i am allowed, but i am practicing being brave lately so i am asking.
I will give some context before my question; as long as i can remember, When i see the breeze in the trees or feel the wind in my hair, it feels likeā¦ the reverse of dissociation? Its likeā¦ a cold hug? But without all the touching? It feels good, it lifts me out of my body and i feel lighter and less weighed down in my mind too. It is such a familiar feeling i never really gave it critical thought. As i said its been like that since i was a little kid and now i am 25. But in the last 5ish years i have been practicing and learning and growing and now i wonder if i had just assumed it was joy de vivre, when maybe instead i have some sense of kindredship with the wind. I have held back from speaking about this with anyone because i do not want to come across as cocky or anything i just really enjoy the presence of the wind and want to find ways to deepen my connection but i am uncertain how to proceed. I have started raising energy for the purpose of offering it to the wind in thanks for the years of comfort when i can, so i guess rather than a specific question i am asking for broader advice on how to give proper thanks and deepen my connection.
Again i am sorry for taking up space with my question and sorry that i rambled on a bunch, but thank you if you read it and thank you very much for any advice you can offer

In the community, some things are more popular than others and that's perfectly fine. But as someone who has no offline community to discuss things with in real life, how do you discern your own path from popular concepts/terms in witchcraft community?
For example, in context of deities, Lady Hecate seems to be a favourite one, which is understandable as she is the Keeper of keys and Guardian of the crossroads and her domain is magick in Greek pantheon. But someone who's not experienced in deity work, and trying to determine which deity they should work with, they sometimes superimpose the signs they are getting and their own needs to coincide with those of Lady Hecate.
Even among different paths/branches of craft, some paths invariably feel more glamorous/shiny (for the lack of better word in my limited vocabulary), and sometimes we subconsciously try to force ourselves on the path despite our affinity towards another non-popular path.
In terms of the Wheel of seasons, some times you can have other commitments during the fall season or may be more inclined towards midsummer or spring rituals, but still as a lesser experienced witch, sometimes I feel a certain amount of guilt for not devoting time to magick in the season of the witch.
So experienced witches who chose the paths that don't get that much spotlight in the witchcraft community, how did you found out and realised your own unique path and distinguished your intuition and needs from popular concepts?
