Fairies move swiftly and can become invisible blending into the woods. They wear green clothes and tend to live on hills, in woody dells, underwater or the Otherworld where they frequently war with insects and reptiles. Fairies eat fruit and are capable of producing things like shoes and bows. They enjoy music and dancing and love to play tricks and brawl with each other. Fairies have been known to enchant humans and trap them in the fairy realm. More frequently, they just steal household items

The best places to find fairies are in the "tween places" like forks in the road, where streams divide or border hedges; the best time to find them is in the "tween times" like dusk or dawn.   Until you are atuned to the fairy realm you may not see their approach, however, an unexplained ripple in  water or a sudden chill may indicate their presence and their wish for you to join them

If you can see with a child's eye there is a world full of color, joy and wonder to be seen. The fairy realm reminds us to keep this joy and creativity alive. Each cave and hollow tree has a doorway to another world. Every flower, leaf and blade of grass has a story to tell. Streams sing and the winds whisper ancient secrets into the ears of those who will listen

They have vast storehouses of knowledge and wealth that they will bestow on us.  All of the gifts and help they give have been touched with magic.  They will bring us romance and true love, open doorways to success, and reveal to us all the great treasures of the earth.  Above all else they work to alleviate our pain and suffering, serving as our guardians and helping us grow

Fresh flowers and laughter are the best ways of attracting fairies to you for as we know just as each flower has its own fairy and that each tear that is shed from laughter creates a new fairy
