I love the fae so much. These magical beings with minds and hearts of their own. Spirits of the earth that surround us camouflaged from the naked eye of most. Last spring I encountered a beautiful glittering spirit that had taken on the form of a human nurse in an effort to help me when my father was leaving this life. I will forever be grateful to this spirit. Today we are going to chat about the kinds of fairies that hang out in our gardens wondering the plants driving our pets a bit crazy and leaving the garden a place of peace and calm.
