Practical Witchery: Make friends with your local spirits.

Dear Reader,

This post was supposed to happen yesterday but life got in the way. There are a lot of spirits in the world. They range in temperment and personality as much as people do, if not more so. It is good to get to know your local area's resident spirits. They can prove helpful allies and powerful protectors. It is a fairly simple process to get to know them.

A simple offering and a statement of who you are and what you hope will come from the relationship is usually enough. Obviously different spirits prefer different types of offerings. And they'll have different things to offer you in return for your gift to them.

The chart below is a good starter guide to offerings for common local spirits.


Spirit Physical Incense

Fey milk, honey, bread any
