Back in January this yr, I provided a workshop on a subject that could be very expensive to my coronary heart, and which I’m satisfied is invaluable if we’re to survive thrive in these tumultuous instances.
For a lot of of you studying this, you already know it is a key ingredient that makes your life wealthy and extraordinary in numerous methods. It’s the understanding that you’ve a “workforce” of guardians, guides, and allies who shield you and steer you to your highest potential.
Then, two weeks in the past, my subsequent Boutique class centered on one specialty group of those beings — those that encourage and cheer you on in your life’s engagement with Creativity. Particularly, we explored how the Tarot could be a dependable and highly effective means to speak along with your Muse and your artistic daemons/genius/devas.
In two weeks, on March 18, I’ll share what I’ve come to grasp is likely one of the most necessary elements of residing a totally realized existence.
This alliance is one which you could have glimpsed in early childhood. Perhaps you’ve even had occasional encounters in later years. But it has been systematically thwarted and ridiculed in our tradition for a number of hundred years, to the good detriment of us all.
Sure. I’m speaking about Faeries. The People. The Sidhe. The Tuatha de Danann. Numerous names, plenty of traditions.
Okay, I do know. You could be backing away with, “Okay, that’s good, however I’m sort of busy with REAL life, Beth.” In case you are leery, I get it. I positive was, to place it properly (hold studying). But there’s an urgency and seriousness behind why I’m so anxious to direct your consideration to this partnership now.
The Spectacular Crash of the Doubtful Owl
Earlier than the Spring of 2003, I used to be a skeptic. Oh, positive, I had been training woo-woo and magical stuff for many years and many years. However Faeries? Ummm…
Effectively, let’s simply say I had some pretty mates that have been “into that kind of factor,” however gossamer-winged pixies within the backyard have been just a bit too twee for my style. (Spoiler: I wasn’t flawed about that!).
However then, one in all my favourite Reclaiming lecturers was planning a Faery weekend retreat within the Blue Ridge Mountains and most of my native group was going to attend. FOMO obtained me there, however I by no means really believed the Faery half would quantity to something substantial.
Nonetheless, there was a lot to like.. our pal’s magical residence within the rolling arms of the mountains, the good gathering of Witches and magical people from everywhere in the East Coast, the beautiful labyrinth, the drumming and songs, the splendid meals (catered by the Twin Oaks neighborhood farm), the kindness of the land and the ability of the leaders…
However.. Faeries? Actually?
Till the ultimate guided meditation of our final night collectively.
My smugly benevolent detachment was yanked out from beneath me. Down I tumbled. Instantly, there I used to be, deep within the Underworld realms. To my full shock, I discovered myself surrounded by a merry-making throng of NOT pixies, within the corridor of the Faery King and Queen. What occurred subsequent is a type of issues to which the Witch’s Quatenary applies: To Maintain Silent.
Perhaps the gaes can be lifted in some unspecified time in the future, and I’ll share.
However I can inform you the consequence: I used to be blown away. Not simply by the unfolding occasions that night in that magical area, however by the frenzy of reminiscence and familiarity that almost overwhelmed me. And that historical intimacy has by no means left me. Actually, it fully modified the course of my life, my non secular apply, and all the things I stand for.
All the pieces I assumed I knew shifted out from beneath me.
I used to be totally, irrevocably humbled, blessed, and for the primary time since I used to be a little or no lady, I used to be residence.
This Is Your Birthright, Too
In case you are studying this on my weblog, you’ll see (within the blue field both on the backside of your display or to the correct of this put up) that I’m a “practitioner of Previous Faery custom therapeutic and magic.” I’ve now been investigating, training, and celebrating this path for 20 years, finding out with most of the most interesting specialists on the earth.
And I need to share a few of that with YOU.
Why? As a result of I do know there’s a profound connection that awaits you, one you won’t have even realized you have been lacking. You’ve got allies from Different Realms which have watched over you for all of your life, ready and hoping so that you can bear in mind.
However this isn’t glittery sparkles and hey-nonny-nonny folderol. The Faery races are far older and extra formidable than the trivialized, whitewashed junk offered to us by Disney or the Victorians.
It’s time to know the true nature and historical past of your Cousins. You’ll see how this companionship grew to become so entangled within the agendas of Church and Commerce. The sorry consequence has been a catastrophic erosion of our wild locations, our wild hearts, and our understanding of our relationship to our planet.
Therapeutic this sacred kinship is a robust part if we’re to step into our true energy as light-bearers in these stormy instances. Our world urgently wants totally functioning, totally restored human and Faery partnerships.
That is your birthright, a Faery present bestowed upon you as a blessing from lengthy, way back. It will be a privilege to assist break the spell that has diminished your understanding. It will be my honor that will help you reclaim the treasure that has been rightfully yours all alongside.
Please be part of us.
