‘I was trying to make contact with one of the house fairies, so I tried out this meditation. At first nothing happened because I got distracted, but at some point I wandered off into a deep trance and suddenly I heard a voice saying this ‘you have to ask it to Specia the woman fairy’. I thought it was very odd. But I took it as a message anyway. From that day on I ask all my questions to Specia, she is very friendly and even though I can’t see her. When I need her, her energy would be with me.’ ‘[She is a fairy] because they clearly said ‘Specia the woman fairy’, also I can separate the energies from different beings quite well.’ ‘[I] only [heard] a voice of a child like creature who told me about Specia.’ ‘I didn’t see how she looked like, but I do have the strong image of a being with a very friendly face covered in bright purple shining light.’ ‘Yes, from the moment I remember my uncle told me stories about fairies and gave me all kinds of presents which had to do with fairies. After he passed away I was looking through his book shelf, when I suddenly found this book about fairies and nature spirits. When I started to read it I felt this strong boost of energy shooting through my body, I felt the presence of a lot of small energies around me! And when I started to check his whole shelf I found more books about nature spirits and fairies. And from that night on I knew that my uncle has planned this all along.
