Illumination/Imbolc with the Faeries...

Illumination - (Imbolc/Candalmas) Lighting the way. A festival of lights. The reawakening of the sun. Stoke the fires, light your candles; bounce their light around the forest & through your home. Bring light into all of those dark crevices of your life & flush them out. Purge yourself of the negative things that hold you back from progressing on your path. A concept that faeries at this time have very little trouble doing. That’s not to say that all faeries are light, fluffy, nor proble… Continue

Winter Solstice with the Faeries

A time when the dark time faeries are strong & the light time faeries start to make their way into slumber. Before this time of hibernation they wait to pay their respects to Mother Nature herself. Most ask her to watch over them during the dormant times of Winter & to help nurture the seeds that they’ve planted for an abundant Spring to come. After all, Faeries have aspirations too! Mother Nature loves all things of creation. Sometimes she teaches us lessons in harsh ways, sometimes in… Continue

The Winter Faery King & his Queen

The Winter Faery King (Santa Claus) – Even as a little girl I was overjoyed to hear about Santa coming to town every year. So much so that I could hardly sleep the night before, often waking up BEFORE dawn only to have my Mother tell me to go back to my room & wait until the sun at least came up. As I grew older I was told that Santa didn’t really exist, but in my heart of hearts I knew that though we couldn’t see him in the “physical” realm his spirit is very much alive if you open yourself… Continue

The Dark Time Faeries

A time of reflection & ridding oneself of excess emotional baggage. Though often times these faeries are seen as “evil” there really isn’t anything “evil” about them. They hold the key to helping you unlock the true you inside. They ignite that flame under you to do all of the things that you know you have needed to deal with but have chosen not to up to this point. They shine a mirror at you & force you to recognize the things that are holding you back from true progress. They are not “… Continue

Faerie Wisdom

It is taken for granted…
Beloved kindreth,
… both in fiction and non-fiction that we faerie folk are wise, but of what that wisdom consists, or from whence it originates, words are seldom written. So we shall today, though it may be less than wise for us to undertake this task to attempt to define what Faerie Wisdom means. For wisdom may be perhaps so subtle and ineffable a thing, and Faerie Wisdom even more so, that no one can define it, nor perhaps are we meant to do so. Yet being elves and un… Continue

An Elf's Lament Upon Leaving

This poem, which appears in 'Gateway to Elvendom' - the as yet unpublished sequel to The Lorestone - recently won second prize in the Cooldog Publications E-Mag Poetry Competition.

An Elf’s Lament Upon Leaving




My heart is leaden, looking on this land.
The grass is grey and grows sparse on the sward.
I can no longer tarry on the strand.
The water wearies by the foam-flecked ford.
And we must wend,
And we must brave the wave,
Must leave the wood, the river and the cave,
And seek the sea… Continue

Elves and Inspirations

The following article, by reporter Karen Wicks, was printed in the Peterborough Evening Telegraph, appearing in a much edited form, and is here reproduced in full. It also appears under the title 'Elves and Inspirations' on the creativewomensnetwork.co.uk.

A book full of magic, elves and Dark Age drama lay hidden in a suitcase, written more than 30 years earlier by a young woman straight out of university. Her life moved on, but the story and characters stayed with her. Only when she self-… Continue
