§331

‘I woke up one spring morning to a sense of presence in my bedroom. The room was filled with a pink glow that I believe had to do with dewy pink flowers that had just bloomed in a tree outside the window. I saw a small, maybe eight-inches high being with its back to me, skittering back and forth on the sill. It seemed to be inspecting the tree. It had a simian look about it, stood rather stooped with arms dangling and long wings that appeared to be move as though triggered by the being’s respiration. It had a cap and clothing that looked like dried leaves and the coloring of the wings looked the same. The skin was like parchment in both color and depth, and I could see light through the skin. It did not seem transparent as much as just very thin skinned. It made sense that its camouflage could keep it from being detected. It had such an intense presence that it was uncomfortable, and I lay very still for fear of attracting its attention. Eventually, after several minutes, it flew, but did not seem to actually need its wings to do so. I developed a fair obsession with fairies after that and observed a very similar being among the illustrations of Brian Froud.’ ‘About eight-inches tall, monkey-like, thin with parchment-like skin, stood stooped over with hanging arms (again, like a monkey), wore a cap and clothing covering its’ torso that resembled dried leaves, had long insect-like wings with similar coloring that gave the appearance of responding to respiration, bent legged.’ ‘I have had clairvoyant experiences since childhood, and was trained by a medium who married into the family throughout my life. I feel confident that I can tell the difference between this being and a ghost. It seemed like such a being of Nature, and so invested in inspecting the tree, that it just seemed like a fairy.’ ‘I resonate with the teachings that come out of Findhorn, and view the fairies as intelligences that are invested in developing the denizens of the Natural World. I will try to be brief here and say that I believe that they are a race of beings that would endeavor to enter into a co-creative relationship with us, and perhaps used to, when humans lived in greater harmony with the Earth.’ ‘I suspect that the environmental crisis is perhaps pushing these Intelligences to reconnect with humankind in the way that they perhaps used to on a regular basis, in an attempt to work together and address the damage that has been caused since the separation.’
