‘I have a pair of tweezers that go missing a lot. I keep them in the top drawer of my dresser, which is pretty messy, so I can usually find them with a bit of rummaging, but this time was different. The night before I had put the tweezers in a small box so I could find them easier, but the next morning they were gone. I hadn’t touched them since placing them in the box. I looked for them a bit, but eventually I just gave up. Later that day (about three o’clock, I think), I was painting my nails on the floor of my bedroom. My window was cracked open, and I was sitting in the sunlight. After I had finished my first coat of nail polish, I went up on my bed and watched some videos on my laptop. About twenty minutes later my nails were dry so I got up to paint another coat, and to my great surprise my tweezers were lying right in front of me. They were right where I was sitting, they couldn’t have been there before as I would have sat on them! Everything felt sparkly, in an eerie sort of way. As soon as I saw the tweezers, I just sort of knew it was some sort of fairy. I asked both my pendulum and tarot cards if it was the fae and they both said ‘yes’.’ ‘It could have been a ghost of some sort, as that was around the time, I started having other paranormal experiences, but this time felt different. Most of my ghost encounters have left me feeling uncomfortable and restless, whereas this made me feel safer and more magical, like I said, sparkly.’ What are fairies? ‘I don’t think I know enough to fully formulate an opinion. But from my (very limited) experience, they seem to do more good than bad though, one should still be very careful and respectful when working with them.’
