Fairies often dance in circles in the grass which are called faery rings and this spells danger for the human passerby. The wild
enchantment of the fairy music can lead a person inexorably
towards the ring in which, like a fairy kiss or fairy food and drink,
often lead to captivity forever in the world of fairy. If a person
steps into a fairy ring they will be able to see the fairies and they
will be compelled to join the fairies in their wild prancing. The
dance might seem to last only minutes, or an hour or two, or even
a whole night but in fact the normal duration would be seven years by our time and sometimes longer.
What Faeries Love!
Faeries love nature, woodland animals, flowers and herbs.
They love certain stones, especially shiny ones like marble,
tiger eyes or processed stones that are smooth. They are also
attracted to staurolite, lava, fluorite, peridot and jade. The
most sacred and favorite stone is the green emerald. Green
is the faeries traditional favorite color in many lands.
Probably because it is the prevalent color of nature. They
love clean water, milk, butter, bread, cakes, honey and
wine. There favorite is creamy milk. If you want to give a
gift to the faeries, hang ribbons or rags on thorn branches.
They love folk music from their native lands. Especially
when played on a folk instruments like the pennywhistle
or the recorder. Farmers who have had faerie encounters
say faeries like to play in the straw and love strawberries.
