Blessings Darlings!
There has been quite a spate of "OMGs, there are spirits in my new house! I must banish them all!" posts in Facebook groups recently.
In Witch/pagan/occult Facebook groups.
Therefore, in groups where folks should fucking EXPECT TO BE INTERACTING WITH FUCKING SPIRITS FUCKING REGULARLY.
Seriously? You've trained to be able to see/notice spirits, and NOW you're freaking out that ... you see them? Really? REALLY? You want them to all go away?
What, exactly, did you expect your training to lead to?
Chat with them, like any OTHER roomie that you have/have had. Set up ground rules, IF they are being a problem. Do divination if you need some help.
But, really, you've been TRAINING for this. You've INVITED this type of thing.
Stop whining that you got results.

The Spirits Laughed.
Blessings Darlings!
Today is just a typical day at Chez Fern, with the Big Cooking Project making bone broth (don't worry, it wasn't anyone you knew). So I add the baked bones to the water, throw in a little vinegar, and add some peppercorns, and I notice that the pepper mill is kind of low on peppercorns.
No problem. I trot upstairs to the pantry to grab the big bottle of peppercorns. Ooops - knocked the basil plant, that I had clipped at the soil line and hung up to dry, off of it's support. Many, many dried basil leaves on the floor.
"Oh, gosh", says I, "What can I store those up?"
Every freaking spirit in the house laughs. Because that pantry is where about half of my canning jars are. Apparently the spirits found the rhetorical question amusing.
Insolent Spirits!

It's Elemental
Blessings Darlings!
Last fall, my life turned into a series of leaks. The car. The toilets. The refrigerator. The refrigerator at my MOTHERS when I went THERE. One damn water issue after another.
By the time of the leak at my Mothers, it was clear that elemental Water was trying to get my attention. I started daily water meditation (crystal bowl of water, sun or at least daylight reflecting in it), doing some stuff my High Priestess suggested, doing an Invoking Water pentagram with every cup of liquid I drank, etc.
I can't say that I got any specific deep messages from Elemental Water, but we have rather more of a relationship that we had 6 weeks ago. And the leaks have all been fixed and not returned.
A working relationship.
That type of relationship is what seems most important to me in magic. Being intimate enough to know you and the Elemental can can do communicate. Or the herb, or Spirit, or whatever.
Build those relationship, my fronds. Network. That network is often what tirns into your safety net later.
