Welcome! I'm Tuiliel (or you can call me Lily). My posts and reblogs are usually related to witchcraft, paganism, nature photos, or fantasy art and fae aesthetic. I'll put some of my more common tags below.

More about my specific paganism and witchcraft under the cut.
If you wanna contribute to my deck or book collection, I have a wishlist here.
And, if you're interested - here is my BPAL Review Masterlist.
I've been practicing some form of paganism and witchcraft for more than 20 years at this point, and my practice has wandered around a bit, but I've settled into devotional polytheistic paganism. I mainly interact with the Tuatha Dé and the Vanir and the Fair Folk, though I do keep a shrine to Kemetic deities, and have relationships with several Welsh and Greek deities, and I try to at least have pleasant cordiality with anyone else I encounter.
My witchcraft is very hedgewitchy, focused half on the Otherworlds (Fairy especially) and half on my hyperlocal area, emphasis on spiritwork but also lots of plant and candle magic.
I prefer the term faeborn over otherkin or alterhuman but generally yeah I fall under those umbrellas and it is hard to currently be incarnate as human.
I also run the following e-shrines, though none of them are updated more than once in a while:
@eyes-of-ra : Bast and Sekhmet, and Kemeticism as a whole
@nic-flidais : Flidais and her Daughters - mostly aesthetic/Vibes™️ because there's not a lot written about them
@vanadottir : the Vanir and associated beings (some alfar, some Vanir-by-marriage), heathenry in general
@bright-and-cold : Hela and her family
@queens-of-sovereignty : fairy queens, mostly Irish but also a few Welsh and a few that are UPG - this is almost entirely an aesthetic/Vibes™️ blog
@athena-columbia : the local cultus aspect of Athena as patroness of Washington DC, and the federal government of the United States
@thrudvangr : Thor, made as part of a petition and mostly an archive at this point

this is exactly how certain spirits feel to me — not fully person, not fully landscape, but something in between.
the kind of presence you would meet at the edge of the woods, half-grown from light and moss, carrying a branch like a staff and saying absolutely nothing because it doesn’t need to.
some beings are not here to be understood.
just respected.

What the mind calls “boring” is often where the sacred hides.
Repetition. Routine. Mornings. Evenings. The same domestic rituals, again and again. Making food. Clearing up. Doing the laundry. Walking the same streets. Paying bills.
This is not a downgrade from spirituality. It is the manifestation of it.
The transcendent does not live somewhere else. It shines right here, through the ordinary, through the immanent, through the endless cycles and repetitions of each ordinary day.
Feeding the cat. Doing the shopping. Putting the kids to bed.
God does not need “special” moments. Grace shines just as clearly in these repetitions.
Okay, I think this Takes the Cake with the Wildest Reason why I Lost a Client
I've lost Clients before for what I consider some of the silliest of reasons, most of which was because I don't offer a particular service, or because I don't practice a particular technique. I've lost Clients before because I don't believe in Karma, I don't believe in the Akashic Records, because I don't utilize Crystals in My practice, because I'm not a Tarot Reader, because I don't practice, let alone offer Reiki. The list goes on and on.
But I think this might be the first time, or at the most, the second time in My life I lost a Client because They don't believe a Blind Person can practice Divination, let alone practice it professionally. I mean, I have accessible Divination sets, which I tried to explain to this Person, but They weren't willing to listen. Alright, fine, I'm adding You to the list of Clients I don't want to ever work with or for.
Because of a combination of My general Divination practice bound up with My work practice, I usually don't do Divination between Sunset of Friday evening to the Sunset of Sunday evening, less it's an emergency. However, I was checking My email today and I finally received a response from the potential Client that reached out to Me a couple of weeks ago. Yeah, what the Fuck?
I like an overgrown door. Where does it go? Why isn't it used anymore? Probably the answers to these questions are perfectly prosaic, but I like to think it leads to somewhere magical and it's just waiting for the right person to open it up again and walk through.

"All pagans should have to believe X" Oh, you want universal neopagan orthodoxy, do you? Should we have a neopagan Council of Nicaea about it? Should we print catechisms? Should we punish people for not conforming to your orthodoxy?
Witches & Pagans who work with the fae, what are your thoughts on Titania & Oberon as real, tangible spirits and not just characters written by Shakespeare?
Are there faery beings out there using the names "Titania" and "Oberon"? definitely
Are there ones that not only use the names but match the descriptions, and answer when called by those names? probably.
Are they in some plausible sense queen/king among the fae? Well define king/queen, but sure, any given individual could be one (since there's no singular over-all-everywhere personage that fits that, and the definition of "queen/king" is a little smaller than it tends to be among humans)
Okay okay, cut the hedging (ha ha), you know what the question is intended to mean? Those exact forms were some kind of a manifestation of his specific way of interacting with the faery realm, but it doesn't make them "untrue" or "just made up" in the way that most people might think.
