A Sparkle of Sunlight
“…There is a mutual benefit here – the world evolves, you evolve, the world heals, you heal, love fills the world, love fills your heart…”
Welcome Child, welcome to my world, welcome to the realm of Spirit.
Today I would like to talk to you about fairies. Yes fairies, I’m not joking! Fairies, pixies, elves, you name it – elementals if you wish, faery folk, the unseen, the unloved but by a few, the uncared for, the forgotten – the keepers of our natural world. And yet most of you have seen one, at one time or another, and dismissed it, as society has taught you to do – you are told that they don’t exist, and so you believe this instead of your own eyes.
Well they do exist! They did not leave this earth, merely changed their location to another dimension. Very few things from our folk stories that have survived generation after generation are untrue – they’ve just been misconstrued, misled, reshaped, inflated, or exaggerated, until the truth is lost or forgotten.
Faery folk exist, they see us, they hear us, they know what we do in the world, they work hard to combat the damage, to keep this world in good working order, to keep the rivers clean and the meadows pure, to encourage the birds to nest and the insects to breed – for every single life force has a part to play on this earth, and all must be kept in balance for her to sing her song. A loss of any one part has a detrimental effect on the whole, any species leaving this planet leaves work to be picked up by others, roles that have to be filled.
And what do they think of Earth now? Do they hate us for our errors? No, for that is not their nature – volatile they can be, passionate they are, but also great healers, great nurturers, great carers, and this is their primary concern. Do not think that if you kill a worm and an apple falls on your head this is accidental – there is a very real possibility that a faery had a helping hand in this! But do not think they are mean, or spiteful, as some legends will have you believe – they are merely trying to do their jobs.
The reason for speaking about this now is that we (humanity) are in a time of flux, of change, energies are shifting, out with the old and in with the new – our awareness is growing, our abilities increasing, and our vision expanding. Many folk, such as the faeries, will not remain invisible to us for long, we will begin to take note, to learn, and so we must be prepared – must have right attitude.
There are those that would seek to harm us, those who influence our politicians, our men of power, our banks, our law makers, our scientists and our media. And there are those who struggle to combat this, with love, with healing, with communication. No longer will the world be trodden on, we are awakening. And the faeries are wanting to help – but we must give back – an exchange is always required – that is why we say thank you when someone is kind, we are giving back a loving energy in return for that which they have given us – and it is the same with the faeries, they will help us to see, to grow, to love, to nurture, to restore – to bring this planet back to life. And in return we should give thanks, we should learn, we should practice, we should focus on what we find to be true – the ways in which we can help the world, the ways in which we can give back.
I say ‘should’ because we are not obligated, as I’ve said many times before, free will is a must, a prerequisite of our race, of humankind, choice is everything. So we do not have to thank them, or even acknowledge them, but this is then an opportunity missed.
Why? For they can help us, they have worked with the world for thousands of years, before man evolved consciousness – they have seen the rise and fall of nations, and have sometimes assisted – their primary goal is to look after the earth, the planet that so willingly gives of herself to be our home, to provide for us opportunities for growth and expansion, to learn and to love, to feel physical pain and physical pleasure – all of this for us – and they will do whatever they must to maintain this, it is their role in the big picture, and they have the heart and strength to do it. Do you?
So speak to them, invite them to work with you, you may not see them, but they are everywhere, you may dream of them, see a sparkle of sunlight that then disappears, a flash in the dark, a tinkle of colour, a brightening flower, a dewdrop, a voice on the wind, a feeling of life in your garden.
The birds know they are there, their sight is different to ours, and they are the frustration of cats all over the world. The insects, the flowers, the trees – they know them well. So why do they hide from us? The world became a bitter place. A place where church and man thought they could govern all, rule all, in disrespect and greed, where any who did not comply were shot, murdered, killed, outlawed, burned, buried, sold – you think the world is a bad place now? It has been worse. But never has Mother Earth needed help so much as now – humankind may be changing, but there is more than a waking up required here. Participation, action, intention, manifestation, all are tools for our use, for us as spirit to evolve mankind, to evolve the world – and all the many, many species, in their many dimensions, that she homes.
All that the faeries require of us is honesty, truth, an ear to listen and a mind to do – timewasters, dreamers, those who listen only to boost their egos – need not apply. Remember the apple on the head, the faeries are not backwards at coming forwards – be honest of heart, and open of mind, seek them out – in dreams, in meditation, even in sitting in the garden in the sunshine having a beer. Invite them into your world, carefully stating your intention – you do not want everyone walking in – and you will find they will turn up, when least expected, and small, subtle changes will begin to appear.
They can help you with healing, especially if you are inclined to tune into nature, they will certainly help you to garden, or grow things, they have ancient advise, ancient knowledge, can help with your wildlife, or with journeying, with animal spirits, with insect friends – if you have a plague of flies ask them to call in the spiders, another particular helper to mankind. Whatever you need they have a way to help. And not just them, there are many, many more kinds of folk out there, each with their particular skills and abilities, all willing to help when we show the respect and practice the oneness that we share with all things.
It is far more than equality, it is the understanding that when you break it all down, we are all energy, the same energy, and we are all inter-connected, and every thought, every breath we take, affects every other living thing in the Universe. With this recognition, this respect, and this love for all living things, comes the perfect basis for beginning to work with other folk, faeries in particular. They are ready, they are waiting, there is a mutual benefit here – the world evolves, you evolve, the world heals, you heal, love fills the world, love fills your heart. And what we are is what we attract – so what is there to lose!
Don your fairy wings, express your love, put out some water in the moonlight, a mince pie at Christmas, herbs in the garden, even a post-it note on your desk – put some little bit of your energy out there as an olive branch, an extension of self, an offering, in exchange for assistance – and they will come, for the benefit of us all.
And so I conclude my little discussion on faeries – I say discussion as I can hear each of your questioning and querying as you go along! And I hope I provide the answers that you seek. Until next time, my dear friends, goodbye.
Truth shines a light
