Do you love fairies?
I do.
I'm fascinated by certain elemental fairies (fairies of earth, air, fire and water). I like water fairies, but I'm particularly drawn to earth fairies which are often associated with forests and meadows. My name means "graceful meadow" and I want to build my dream home in the midst of an incredible meadow yard with a huge tree in the middle (the forest aspect). I think it'll be full of meadow fairies, don't you?
"Fairies are the sacred spirit or presence that animates and enlivens all of nature." ~ Sirona Knight
I love the connection with nature, but fairies represent something even more significant to me - - growth, transformation and freedom of expression. I even have pictures of fairies on my dream board to symbolize complete expression of all I am.
"Elves and fairies are a natural expression of your inner being that includes your dreams, aspirations, and desire for something more in life than what's being offered. Elves and fairies beckon you to a world where anything is possible as long as you set your mind to it!" ~ Sirona Knight
Although I love fairies and their symbolism is important to me, I wasn't aware that there's an annual celebration associated with fairies until I read WhiteOak50's lens all about Fairy Day!
Fairy Day is held each year on June 24. It's a day of celebrating nature and everything to do with fairies.
Not sure how you'd go about celebrating? WhiteOak50 offers many possibilities, made even more captivating by the hauntingly beautiful music on the lens and WhiteOak50's own fairy designs. Imagine dressing up as the fairy you love the most from childhood fairy tales or blowing bubbles, leaving little fairy kisses when they pop!
"Fairy Day" is a delightful lens that invites the child in everyone to come out and play on Fairy Day.
What will you do to celebrate Fairy Day?

"Fairies are a natural expression of your inner being." I love this thought. Thanks for pointing out WhiteOak's lens. Her art is wonderful and I agree with you on the music. It helped to drown out the band saw sounds from next door!

Great write-up, Leanne. ...Didn't know about Fairy Day. Thinking it would be a nice day to celebrate not just fairies but the unknown amount of information from the universe that we don't have as yet. And like Kim, I love that "fairies are a natural expression of your inner being."
ReplyDeleteFairy Day... what an enchanting idea! We can never have too much magic and wonder in our lives, maybe even more so as we become adults and lose ourselves in the seriousness of day-to-day life. I'm off to get my dose of inspiration from WhiteOak.
