Hello! I’m Mai!

Hello! I’m Mai!

I’m restarting my blog from scratch, after a too-long hiatus, and I figured an introduction was in order.

I go by Mai on this blog, and I recently came out of the broom closet in a family of (very accepting) Christians. I’m a faerie witch, and I love plants and excel at divination. This blog will focus on those and basics, and the grimoire. That being said, this is a safe place, so no terfs, no racists, etc. Fight me.

My hobbies are drawing, writing, and making jewelry. I live in that one awkward part of the US where we aren’t really the South, but aren’t really Midwest either. I’m currently trying to balance 97 different things during this pandemic (including the pandemic 🥲).

I am here for any witches who need me, or are in a situation similar to mine- broom closeted, or trying to transition out of it. Feel free to drop an ask!

Edit: I have created a Silmarilion sideblog, so if you enjoy my Silmarilion content, go there. @mai-youdumbass

I am always open to asks and doing free readings! Do not hesitate to ask!

Well, kinda, but you can totally have a casual relationship with them. I do. I have a bunch of succulents (and an onion??) in my room for the garden faerie, and my rock box out for the pixie, and they leave me alone. We celebrate solstices and equinoxes, but I haven’t had a bunch of time for witchcraft lately.

They get that, and we have a very casual relationship. Like I said- as long as you respect them, and leave them little things, you’ll be fine.

I’ve always been super curious about working with the fae, but I’m also terrified from what I’ve heard. 😬

Hey it’s me again, from the fae post. Just wondering if you still do free readings and if you do, I would love to know if there are any fae around me that would like to reach out or maybe around me in general? I do tarot but I’m not great at it.

Hey there! Sorry it took so long, but here’s your reading!

Hey It’s Me Again, From The Fae Post. Just Wondering If You Still Do Free Readings And If You Do, I

Strength, upright: inner strength, bravery, and compassion.

The Moon, upright: unconscious, illusions, and intuition.

The Ace of Swords, upright: breakthroughs, new ideas, mental clarity, and success.

Overall, it looks like should you find the courage to take that first step, there will be faeries willing to speak with you. You’ll have to use your gut to tell you if these fae are trustworthy, but in the end, you’ll find these fae open to conversation!

Let’s talk about Altars ✨

Altars are the space where a witch practices their craft. It can hold a good deal of things, divided in any way that a witch sees fit. Some divide by directions, some by deities. Some divide by a way known only to them it’s up to you!

Let’s Talk About Altars ✨

Let’s take my altar for instance:

All my witchy ingredients tucked safely underneath

My cauldron; a square clay pot I made in junior year

Lots of offerings on the right side of my altar

Things to represent the faeries I work with on the right

My wand

Decorations for Beltane

A couple specialty items

My altar will look completely different from yours, or even someone who works different from you!

Set your altar up in a way that makes you feel the most comfortable!

What do readings entail?

Typically, tarot, but if asked, I can do runes or oracle cards. I would ask though that we stay away from past life readings- I’m not great at those, and y’all deserve the best- and that askers give me a specific question. I’ll develop an FAQ soon!

Hello! I’m wondering if I could ask you for some guidance. I’ve been a pagan for over ten years, and once even (briefly) met a satyr. However, I have had an incredibly difficult time tracking down reputable Fae-related resources, or any information at all as to how to begin working with them, what to do/avoid, how to identify them, etc. I don’t know how to discern what resources are useful or accurate, especially since my third eye is more or less sealed shut. I have a particular interest in the Cú Sidhe, but any resources at all you’d be able to recommend on the Fae in general would be incredibly helpful, and I would be eternally grateful for any and all help in my search. Thank you so much for any help, and if there’s something I can offer in exchange, please feel free to let me know! 💕

Well, I’m honored and flattered that you’d ask me for assistance! In my experience and practice, it’s best to find some OLD faerie lore- start there. You know the stuff: “Don’t thank the faeries! Leave them bread with honey and milk! Put a horseshoe over your door! Wooooooo!” It’s the best place to start. Then, if you meet faeries, they’ll generally let you know what’s actually a thing- mostly by laughing their asses off.

I personally have never met a Cú Sidhe, so I don’t actually know much about them aside from the basics: big dogs, often reputed to be ill omens, and often tamed by elves. I’m sure there are other witches out there with more experience there than me. I don’t understand if you mean identifying presence , or fae in general, but I recommend old manuals for the latter along with lots of research, and it will generally help with the former!

Also- my advice and wisdom are free!✨✨

Fabulous idea, especially for those in the broom closet! It can be edited to be purely intentional magic, I think (op lemme know if I’m wrong) so it’s just “pretty colors you like collecting!”
