The Seven Magical Points of the Faery
In the faery symbolism described here, each point invites reflection on a different part of the natural and magical world.
- The Sun: The primary force of life and creation on Earth, upon which human life depends and which sustains Elven life in faery lore.
- The Wood: A deep connection to forests and trees. In Elven lore, trees are seen as kin, cousins and brothers, holding secrets and the power of the woodland.
- The Sea: The strength of water elemental powers and the ocean as one of the great natural forces, even for those who feel reluctant to approach it.
- The Magick: The living magic found in everyday wonders, from a snowflake to rhymes, runes and visions, woven through human life and Elven lore.
- The Moon: A symbol of light in the dark sky and the rhythms of the tides. Faery lore also connects lunar magic with weather patterns and the rhythms of the body.
- The Wind: The connection of Elves with wind and air elementals. Wind supports plant life through pollination and seed dispersal and, in magical lore, carries subtle messages across realms.
- Connection: A reminder of our ties to others, the world, the land, reality, magic, the universe and ourselves.
