The Faerie Dance
By the moon we sport and play
With the night begins our day
As we dance, the dew doth fall
Trip it little urchins all
Lightly as the little bee
Two by two and three by three
William Shakespeare:
Midsummer Nights Dream
To enter the world of Faery,
you must believe that there is more to this universe than what can be seen by
human eyes. You must believe in the hidden, the shadowed, and the obscure. You
must begin to search with your inner eyes for that which lies beyond the mists,
for it is there that you will find the first thresholds of Fey! These thresholds
will open up into vast worlds, as diverse and complex as our own. The Realm of
Faery is not a place of flittering tiny beings that delight only in tickling our
upturned human noses. It is an entire dimension - richly inhabited by many
races, species and beings."
"The world of Faery can
be found on a green meadow, or a river bank kissed by the sun. It is hidden on a
moonlit moor, on the steep side of a mountain, or just off the road in a secret
woodland glen. The natural world provides all the portals we could ever need to
enter into Faery, but we must remember how to make the journey."
