Answer to Monday's Riddle! Faerie Folk ; )

Amy Brown
Tee hee humans! We're going to cause some mischief while we're visiting Fairday's Blog this week! We've taken over Lizzy's review, and who knows what will come up for Top of the Heap. We are clever little pixies, and we can't wait to tousle your spirits, so be sure to check back ; ) ~ Fae

Fairy Pools in Scotland
With our fondest hello we bring spritely cheer. We heard your call, and now we're here. What we are, surly you know? Just sprinkle some magic into the show. But remember, we're clever and too soon unseen- we'll turn into flowers or fade mossy green. Sometimes vain and known to be shy- we'll cheer you up or make you cry. Beautiful and sour; young and old, light and airy; crass and bold. Add a touch of whimsy, and you're getting there. To see what we are, adjust your stare. Delight in our spell, but remember, beware! We pay no mind to what's right and what's fair. 

 What are we? Answer: Faerie Folk 

 Recipe to see faerie folk

Items needed: A glass bowl, water, white candle (tea lights are fine), 2 rocks- one light/ one dark, a good, sturdy twig, and your imagination.


Find a naturally beautiful spot: hint! faeries like to be near water, so they can look at their reflections. Pour some water into the bowl and light your candle.
Now, toss in the light rock and then the dark rock- stir clockwise three times.
Repeat these words:

"I seek the Fae to come and play
I believe the magic of the day
I have two rocks and a light
Now, I wish to have the sight"

Gaze into the bowl of water, then look around- is there a fairy to be found? 

Repeat whenever you wish for a few delightful tricks!

    And you used the illustrator from last week! Clever (; I was right which is nice to be sometimes. I wonder if there is a difference between saying faerie or fairy. It's probably us trying to make it sound more whimsical or something like that. All I could think about with this topic is Tinkerbell so maybe there's something about her this week (:

      Thank you for making this place.
      The Bright People are pleased to know you.
      This world cam be a special and magical place, if you let it.
      They are ancient but like children, wise like, but playful.
      Do not be mistaken, they are not to be trifled with.
      To let them in is to surrender your life to a state between wonder and blind terror.
      They are not "good" nor "evil", they are like tigers, majestic and awe inspiring, but not always what you would want in your home.

      They have shared many secrets.
      But one thing you should always bear in mind...

      They are not cute little tinkerbells. Be cautious of looking for "nice and cute faeries" it is in their nature to play some mischief on those who have such naieve beliefs!
      Rather look for the nice and the cute in them as you would in people.
      And try to control, trap or otherwise constrain them at your peril.
      They are with you now.
      Peace and blessings.

    My comment went the way of the cyber comment graveyard or something. *sigh*
