Part One: "My Eyes Are Open But . . ."


© Shannon McCracken-Barber

This is part one of a group of editorials focusing on how to see and contact magickal beings both for fun and friendship and also for protection or a specific need/intent.

We'll start small and go bigger . . .

What they say about small packages definitely is true about fairies. These little entities are full of mischief and love and will do anything if it's fun! Though people think they (fairies) do not like to be seen I don't think that's so. They may not choose to show themselves to everyone but they are hardly wallflowers. They love to be the center of it all . . . it's just a matter of opening what we call, the third eye . . . in the middle of your forehead, (and opening one's heart).

The third eye is used for almost anything spiritual especially sight. As with most entities, fairies are hard to see straight on and in bright light but if one chooses to show itself . . . you will see it!

Then I met my friend Beth . . . she embodied the Fey with her bright colors, airy personality with a short temper. She was more into. the Fey than anyone I'd ever known. If she had told me that she was part Fey I would have believed her.

It was Beth's love for fairies and her childlike passions that awakened my love.

I have not seen a lot of singular fairies but I have sensed a "fairie grove" on more than one occasion and, like I said above, it was intoxicating, light and energizing! Though there is no right or wrong way to try and see or contact the Fey . . . I can give you a few pointers that will assure that you stay on their

I thoroughly enjoyed the article and plan on read the other two. Why is it under Folklore? I remember reading somewhere that just because you don't see a thing doesn't mean it's not real!

Look at ...
