Greetings Friends :)

I wanted to share this wonderful and insightful information on some environments of the Fae's, what they enjoy, which herbs and flowers they spend their time in, foods they crave, and more! 

Hope to help :)

The Fae can be found in Mushroom circles in Pine forests, in Hollows of Oak trees and amongst the Acorns, Pine cones and Autumn leaves. Milkweed pods are sure to lead you to the wee ones. Dew drops, primroses, running streams are regular homes for the Fae & Gnome. Here You will find photos of secret Faery homes which prove that Fae DO exist. as well as enchantments to summon Gnomes, Fae and Undines, and gain their favor. Tread lightly as you walk these pages, you NEVER know what you may find. Some of the info contained here will help in your search for the Fae, however you MUST believe Faeries exist with your whole heart.








*Bluebells *

Said



to attract faeries to dance in your garden. On Beltane eve, make an ankle

braclet of "Bluebells" and "jingle" bells to attract


helpful fae folk to you. 

 

*Clover *

A



sacred faery plant, clovers of all kinds will attract them. Lay seven grains of


wheat on a four-leafed clover to see the Faery. 

 

*Elderberry *

Used



to make Faery wine, these berries can be burned on a fire to invite the Good

Folk to a gathering. Make a homemade brew of Elderberry Wine and you are sure

to have some thirsty visitors. It is said that if a human drinks the wine, she

will be able to see the Faery. If a human should drink Elderberry wine from the


same goblet as a Faery being, he will be able to see them forever after. 

 

*Elecampagne *

Also



known as Elfswort. This root can be scattered around the home to attract the


Sidhe. It can be added to any magick or spell to invoke Faery blessing. 

 

*Foxglove*

The



source of the modern heart drug Digitalis, Foxglove can have seriously

dangerous results if taken internally. DO NOT INGEST!! Instead, plant Foxglove

near your front door to invite the Faery in. Put a dried sprig of Foxglove in a


talisman to keep you surrounded in Faery light. 

*Heather *

Heather



is said to ignite faery passions and open portals between their world and our

own. Make an offering of Heather on "Beltane" eve to attract good fae


to your garden 

 

*Lilac *

The



sweet scent is said to draw Fae spirits to your garden. Lilac and primroses for


midsummers eve, will please the Fae. 

 

*Mistletoe *

The



most sacred herb of the Druids. Mistletoe is a magickal activator. In Faery

spells, use a dash of Mistletoe taken on Summer Solstice to empower your


workings with Faery magick. 

 

*Milkweed *

Both



Monarch butterflies and fairies like milkweed. If Milkweed is planted in a Witches

garden, the fey will always be in the area. The silky tassels of the Milkweed

pods can be added to a dream pillow to not only make it softer but also to make

you dream of fairies. In the Autumn when the pods are bursting and the fluffy

seeds are flying across the fields, a wish is granted for each seed that can be


caught and then released again. 

 

*Peony *

Peony



seeds were once used to protect children from faeries. A garland of the seeds

were placed around the child's neck to keep them safe from kidnapping. In this

day and age, with faery contact so drastically diminished, I doubt that anyone

would want to don this faery banishing herb unless they were living smack dab


in the middle of a circle of crazed Fae!! 

 

*Poppies *

Said



to invoke the faery into your dreams Make a dream pillow of fresh poppies to


entice the fae to your dreams. 

 

*Primrose *

 

When



planted in a garden or hung dried on the front door, primroses will attract the

company of Faeries. If you have them growing under your care, do not let them

die! The Faery will be deeply offended by your carelessness. Primroses are

great in container gardens. Tie a pink ribbon around your container of

Primroses while chanting;
"Sacred roses, hear my cry
for your protection,


this I tie"

 

*Roses *

Roses



attract the Faery to a garden. Their sweet scent will lure elemental spirits to

take up residence close by. Roses can be used in Faery love spells. When

performing the spell, sprinkle rose petals under your feet and dance softly


upon them while asking the Faery for their blessing on your magick. 

Roses



are loved by the fey so you can plant Roses in your garden to attract fairies.

Wild Roses are best for this purpose and you need to say the following spell as


you plant your baby Rose bush: 

"I ask a fairy from the wild,
To come and tend this wee rose-child.
A babe of air



she thrives today,
Root her soul in the Goddesses' good clay.
Fairies make this


twig your bower,
By your magic shall time see her flower!"

 

*Thyme *

Wearing



thyme will increase your ability to see the Sidhe. Sprinkle it at the base of


your door, and on window sills to invite the Faery to enter your home.

 

Fairy Trees, if you please…

* Elder * 

 

Elder is said



to offer protection to the faeries from negative spirits.

`

* Hawthorn * 

 

Hawthorn,



also known as Witches' Tree, is one part of the sacred triad of trees that are

said to be sacred to the Faery. Oak, Ash, and Thorn, when growing naturally

together, create a place where it is easy to see the Fey. Hawthorns were once

believed to be the transformed bodies of Witches, who had shapeshifted into

tree form. It is more likely that the spirit seen in the Hawthorn was that of a


dryad or tree faery.

* Oak *

 

Legend



tells us that "Faery folks are in the oaks". Oak trees are believed


to provide safe havens and homes for many varieties of faery.

* Apple *

 

The



bark of apple trees or the fruits themselves have the power to transport a

true-hearted seeker to the Otherworld. Burn the bark as an offering to the Good

Folk on Midsummer's night. Also used in faery love spells. Cut an apple open to


reveal the five pointed natural star.

 

~ Fairy Dream Pillow ~

Cut



out two squares of soft fabric approximately 6 inches square
Velvet,velveteen

or satin are preferred, 
Sew around three sides of the squares with
white or


silver thread. Mix in a bowl:

Rose



Petals (two parts)
Primroses (one part)
Bay leaves, fresh (one part)
Lavender


(one part )
Milkweed pod silky tassels (two parts)

Turn



the pillow inside out so that the seams don't show, stuff the pillow
with your

herb mixture. Sew up the end so that the herbs stay in the pillow.
You can then

decorate the pillow if you want with lace, silk, or embroider
with designs,

etc. Take this pillow to bed with you at night and put it
under your pillow.

This not only smells great but will help you to have
dreams of the fey. NOTE:

After six months these pillows may lose their
"fresh" scent. You can


reuse them by emptying out the old contents and
refilling them with new herbs









A Recipe to See the Fae

 



On a Dawn morn or dusk eve,



find a special bottle, a pretty one the Fae would like that is.
And pour into

it 
1 cup gathered spring or rain water
1 teaspoon of Pink Rose petals
1/2

teaspoon Lavender flowers
Add 3 Quartz crystals
Add 3 Amethyst Chips
1 pinch of


Faery sugar (see recipe below)
Nine inch piece of pink ribbon

Now hide this away in a dark



cool place for three days. On the third day, again at dawn or dusk, in a place

you think you might spot the Fae, like an Oak tree, backyard or mushroom patch

in the forest. Even a potted plant, herb or Flower will do. Tie a nine inch

piece of Pink ribbon arond bottle neck. Next, close your eyes and sprinkle 9

drops over each eyelid of your Fairy Potion Water', careful not to get it IN


your eyes! Next recite this Faery incantation and watch for the Fae.

'Ribbon

of pink, I just might think.

I

would like to see the Fae today.

Special

sight of Faery's flight,

Send

to me the way today.

A

sprinkle here a sprinkle there,

A

secret spell I say today.

Wispy

wings and little things,

Are what I’d like to see

today.' 

PLEASE note this may need to



be repeated to see the Fae, as they are VERY cautious little creatures!





Fairy Sugar

3 cups fine white sugar
1



tablespoon Vanilla extract (the good stuff)
1/8 teaspoon red food coloring
Glass

container
Lay sugar on wax paper & sprinkle on the Vanilla; 
stir into the

sugar till all mixed in.
Next sprinkle on the red food coloring and incorporate

in till sugar turns Fairy pink. 
Save in glass container, you have labeled Fairy

Sugar; 
Now use this special treat in the recipe above 
& for Faery

cookies, cakes and offerings to the Fae. 
You can eat some your self, but


remember the recipe is a secret!





Fairy Chant

"Come out of your Fairy Bower. Come upon this golden hour. Come to me, I beg you please. Fairies dancing upon the breeze."

 





Fairies enjoy both well-manicured and wild areas in gardens. It is good idea to reserve a special corner in your garden for fairy use. Placing a special statue or a small fountain in such an area is much appreciated by the wee folk.



Leave out a food offering over night. Fairies especially love dairy products, bread, cakes, and cookies, honeyed treats, sweets, and peppermint. Don’t despair if in the morning it doesn’t look like the meal has been eaten. Fairies are able to extract the essence of food without physically eating it. Food should be discarded after a day or two, since it will have little nutritional value left for the fairy. If an animal should approach the food don’t chase it away! Sometimes a shy fairy will assume the shape of an animal to accept its present.

Fairies love water. Fountains, bird baths, ponds, and streams will all attract fairies.

Abodes of various types are appreciated by fairies. Using rocks, caves can be made at the base of rose bushes. A bird-house can be easily adapted for fairy use by adding bright colors, dollhouse furniture, and glitter to the inside. Toadstools and mushrooms are also a favorite of the wee folk. Colored stones and crystals, especially in a water-filled bird-bath, will attract fairies.

Set aside a table top or a corner for an altar, where you can leave offerings for your fairy friends in a basket. Offerings may be food, flowers, herbs, pretty leaves, stones, or anything else you think your fairy might like.

Keep your home reasonably tidy, as fairies hate a mess.




Most important of all, you must cultivate a sense of reverence, wonder, and fun—as these are qualities necessary to befriend a fairy.





Let me know how it goes hehehe :)

Blessings and Love ~ *

         







" The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mystical. It is the source of all true art and science. If we open our minds to enjoyment, we will find tranquil pleasures spread about us on every side. We will live with the angels that visit us on every sunbeam, and sit with the faes who wait on every flower."
