I guess I'm a lucky woman to have been blessed and welcomed so readily by the fairies (or it seems so in my eyes)!
I've been very spiritual since the age of around 21. For a while I began to believe I was schizophrenic, but I was just HEARING things, I was "seeing" and seeing (for those who know about spirits, they'll know what I mean by "seeing").
I had been working closely at developing a relationship with a spiritual guide that a woman had mentioned I had around me. The guide was not a fairy at all, but he was very loving and protective. So as I formed communications with him, it seemed as though I opened a floodgate into the other world.
It had been feeling like a new friend (and sometimes foe) was breezing in and out. I was SOOO new to all of this, and I relied heavily on a pendulum and meditation. At first I hardly believed any of it.
However, one evening a small male spirit (I believe him to be a fairy) entered my home and was making A LOT of contact with me. At first he was hard to handle, he would hide things and insist on having me clean when I was exhausted. Once I was cleaned up though, my items would return a few hours later. He wasn't bad at all, in fact he was being very pushy to keep me organized and to become a better person. I used to have a horrible habit of telling little lies to my parents to keep them from nagging me, this stopped quickly because of the fairy who was consistently scolding me.
He gave me his name. Out of respect for him, this name will be held private. I had a vague idea at the time what the significance was behind a spirit giving you their name. It took me a long while to understand just how powerful something as simple as a name could be for them.
For those disbelievers, here is what I can literally see and feel from my dear friend.
One evening I was meditating and asked HIM and only him to help me understand their world. We fondly call it "practicing". Practicing involves a few different things, sometimes it involves me just sitting in the dark, eyes open and fear repressed. This evening it was exactly that. I sat in my bed, with meditation oil and stared off into the darkness. Then within only a few minutes a beautiful small white ball seemed to float across the room and disappear. If you had seen it, there wouldn't have been a doubt in your mind what it was. You just…knew.
He's been amazing since our first "rocky" weeks together. He plays games with me to help me clean my home. He'll find an object in the mess and then will tell me to pick up all the shoes before he gives me a new clue. I'll pick up the shoes. He'll then tell me to do the laundry for a new one. I do the laundry. Then he'll say "The RING is…" and you'll literally feel your hand shifting into a direction, and sure enough I find an earRING.
He's unbelievable. If you haven't made contact yet, don't give up.
