ATTRACTING FAIRIES~
A fairy’s world pulsates with life, motion, feeling. Because theylive in a world which throbs with life, the fairy looks at things in
a way which is all his own. They have no sense of possession or emotions of fear and envy.
They are permeated with a great love of beauty and perfection and their primary emotion is a
grand sense of radiant joy

It is said that fairies cannot be seen or noticed in any way unless they want you to observe them.
Perhaps that is so, but developing “fairy sight,” the ability to perceive fairies, is easier than one
might think.

How fairies make themselves known

Fairies show up when you’re in harmony with your environment.We may not notice them because
we don’t know how to look for them, or we dismiss them as our imagination. They may be right
in front of us.

When one is in a peaceful mood, simply drinking in the beauty, scents and sounds of nature one
is open to seeing them.The calm which expands your consciousness reaches into the realms
which are normally unseen. Ask fairies to make themselves known to you. It is important to
greet them, to initiate contact

Fairies often make themselves known as sparkling balls of light or silvery-white lights that float
or dart around. The lights may sparkle like jewels on the ground – sort of the way cities
look at night when seen at from an airplane. You may hear fairy music. Fairies love to dance
and sing and play musical instruments. Findhorn in Scotland became famous for its nature spirits, or devas, who communicated in mediumship
and told the community members how to tend their gardens and relate to nature in a more
spiritual way.

Tips for developing fairy sight

Practice harmony with your environment wherever you go – remember, some fairies live indoors.
When seeking the little folk, tune in to the place and feel yourself centered and relaxed.

Try averting your vision. Fairies often appear in peripheral vision, where they create an impression
rather than a distinct visual image.Fairies can be seen at any time, but you may have the best
results at transition times such as dusk and dawn, known as “tween times”.

Fairies include a wide range of beings found everywhere in nature and live in homes and buildings.
Many people think fairies are tiny beings with wings, but they come in all shapes and sizes,
from small balls of light to little humanoid beings to towering, angelic figures.There are different
races of fairies, just as there are different races of humans

The fairy realm includes nature spirits and elementals, household helpers, worker beings,
guardians of the land, spirits who live in machines, and over lighting presences who hold and
nourish the archetypal patterns of all species.

Fairies are powerful beings. According to lore, they work tirelessly in their respective realms to
ensure harmony of the cosmic whole. Their magic is associated with luck, fortune and healing.

As people have increased their desire to understand beings in the natural landscape and in
our homes and machine , fairies have responded with increased openness to mutually
beneficial communication and work.

Fairies have a grand sense of mimicry and drama. Those who occupy homes are fond of moving
objects around. They can appear and disappear in a blink.

Cultivating the fairy presence

To invite fairies into your home, make a “fairy nook.” Fairies are appreciative of special places
you set aside for them. It’s a sign to them that you are mindful of their well-being and wish
them to be a participant in the household.

Fairies like places where they can see observe whole rooms, and where they are out of the
main household traffic. Bookshelves and tables in corners and alcoves are favorites.

When you are near them, greet them. You needn’t speak out loud, for fairies will pick up on
your thoughts.

In addition you may wish to set up a fairy altar. The altar opens a door to spiritual realms and
can serve as a place to leave little gifts for household fairies.

Small accent tables and boxes make excellent altars, and can be set up in a corner of your
bedroom or a quiet area of the house. Objects for the altar may include the four elements,
such as a stone or crystal for earth; a seashell for water; a feather for air; and a candle for fire.
Shiny and sparkling things are attractive to them. We often set the table for fairies, with
tiny tea set plates and cups.

Thankfulness

Fairies love to be appreciated. In lore, small bits of food and dishes of honey and cream are
the preferred offerings of thanks to the fairies. If they’ve appeared during one of your investigations,
leave a tiny snack behind as a thank you.
