will you lead me into the ring and dance the night away? Spin me around until I stumble through the Veil and fall into the Otherworld.

𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊 Messages from the Fae Realm 𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊

Welcome all my lovely souls to another reading, I wished to work with some of my favourite spirits today so I have connected to the Fair Folk that surround me in my countryside home. They have been so helpful and provided a few messages for all of the collective who are guided to me, having said that I do hope you can find a message for you here today! So take a breath and choose a pile. Always remember to trust your intuitive guidance and to only take what resonates for it is rarely wrong…

┋ Pile 1 ┋ Pile 2 ┋ Pile 3 ┋

Pile 1:

{Cards: The Emperor, The four of pentacles & the Empress / Charms: Green Pear, green ribbon & three green flowers}

With great strength comes great responsibility, We believe that is how the human saying goes, you have this strength, this power but yet you do not use it wisely. We can see more than you may know and we know how you have the power to help - share your gifts, those talents, and thoughts that are unique to you alone. Do not hide them from the world for you would not have them if they were not meant to be of a special use. This world is in need of your help but it is up to you whether you are willing to take the leap...

Pile 2:

{Cards: Page of wands, five of swords & Nine of pentacles / Charms: Black-heart, shooting star, dead fish-bone, rocking horse & happy face}

Why have you let the voices win or at least act like they are winning? Why have you given up on seeing wonder and beauty? You had so much fire & creativity running through those veins but now they look empty. We hold onto hope still that one day you will burst forth like a phoenix and show the world how wonderful the true soul that exists within you is! This battle is yours to face though, we cannot fight the demons for you, that is how one learns and grows you see but know we will watch and guide always and hope you will see past the cloud of negativity that fogs around you.

Fae Advice: If you are struggling with limiting beliefs, self-doubt and negative thinking I can offer some advice. If you feel comfortable write down the thoughts that plague your mind and knock your confidence, it is my experience those thoughts linger unless you look at them realistically writing them down helps you see that they are silly and hold no power. look at what you have written does it hold any truth, is there any facts to back it up? Probably not! Then you can add beside the negative thought the true good thought, make sure to draw a line through the negative thought afterward to let the universe know this is not your belief. An example on my end could be: My opinion doesn't matter. Who put this thought in me? Why do I choose to believe it without thinking critically about it? what I should believe is: My opinions and views do matter as I have insight and thoughts no one else may have and those opinions may be the very thing a person or the world needs to hear in that moment. Hope this helps you all!

Pile 3: {Cards: Five of cups, three of cups, three of wands & Knight of wands / Charms: panda face, teddy bear, cozy cow, star & ginger-bread man}

We just wished to say we love you very much, your aura is a breath of fresh air & how you show your authentic self to the world, unafraid to be open and kind we greatly admire. So never stop being curious, keep growing, and keep connected to that inner child you nurture so well for through them you will forever be connected to us! Your loving Faery Friends 𐐪♡𐑂

I hope that you managed to find a message that resonated for you out of the three piles and that it has brought you clarity, comfort, or inspiration in some form.

If you are in need of more help or clarity from the spirits or myself then please check out this post here where you will find information about myself, links to my private readings, and rules about my exchange readings.

Sending loving vibes and gratitude to all of you! - Fae ⋆.ೃ࿔*:･

Hello! I was wondering if you have any resources on changelings in folklore/history, or even just on fae in general? I've been eyeing fae magic for a few years now and am now thinking of taking up study of the topic in earnest. Love ur blog btw, and can't wait for the book!

I don't work with the Good Neighbors myself and fairy magic isn't my area of expertise, but I do have a few older books of related lore and folktales I can direct you to:

British Goblins, Welsh Folk-lore, Fairy Mythology, Legends and Traditions, by Wirt Sikes (1880)

Fairy and Folk Tales of the Irish Peasantry, Edited and Selected by W. B. Yeats (1888)

Fairy Legends and Traditions of the South of Ireland, by Thomas Crofton Croker (1827)

The Fairy Faith in Celtic Countries, by W.Y. Evans-Wentz (1911)

The Fairy Mythology, by Thomas Keightley (1870)

The Magic of the Middle Ages, by Viktor Rydberg (1865)

The Origins of Popular Superstitions and Customs, by T. Sharper Knowlson (1910)

The Secret Commonwealth of Elves, Fauns and Fairies, by Robert Kirk (written 1691, pub. in print 1893)

West Irish Folk-Tales and Romances, by William Larminie (1893)

All of these titles are in the public domain and should be available for free on sites like Project Gutenberg or Global Grey Ebooks. (There may also be some other titles there that you can use for historical lore reference.)

While they may not be resources for modern versions of fae magic, they definitely provide a lot of background information that was written and published BEFORE the rise of modern witchcraft, which means the authors were just recording the folklore as they found it, rather than trying to bend it into a witchy shape. (It's pretty much invariably viewed through a Christian lens, but one should keep in mind that this is part of the culture of the countries of origin when it comes to fairies and spirits.)

I also have this list of JSTOR articles related to the history of witchcraft, occultism, witch trials, and related folklore - including fairies.

Thanks for tuning in! Hope this helps!
