Spring Quarter Calls from Faerie Ritual Spelcastor@aol.com of Fort Lauderdale CUUPS Here are calls from a Faerie ritual I did about this time of year. Faeries are most thought of from March through July, although they are around all year. Air - East: Tree Elf A creature of dreams and magic. A race of light beige color, often wearing green. Into herbs and healing Fire - South: Pixies Usually of the female sex, bearing two silvery wings (sometimes four). They fly like humming birds and dance with the dragon flies. Hold very still and you might catch a glimpse of magic at work. Water - West: Mushroom Fairies Living in mushroom groves and gardens. Always two-wings, never four. Not as playful as the pixies. More studious and inclined towards reading. Earth - North: Woodland Gnomes 6 inches tall. Quick, strong and smart. A helper to humans. Sometimes ride on the backs of foxes, fly with a hawk, or even ride a frog. Mab, or Titania, the Fairy Queen and Oberon, her King We do not invite trolls or goblins. They are related to the faeries, but they are not pleasent to have around. Invocation: Come join us, Elves of the Trees. Come to us from the East, creatures of Air, dreams and magic. Come in your green garb, bringing your herbs and healing Come join us Pixies with your Fiery Wings. Come to us from the South, soaring with your companions the dragonflies.
