Fairy Love

by Morgan
(Poulsbo, WA, USA)

I was curious if fairies (and Fairy Kings) fall in love with humans. If so, I was curious how a fairy would go about getting the human to fall for him/her. I'm especially curious about what happens if the human does not fall for the fairy. Thanks.

Ophelia Fey says -- Morgan, nowadays such things are much less common. It is possible that a fairy might find a human quite fetching from a distance. But the time has long since passed when the worlds of Faerie and yours have been so closely connected. Fairies have withdrawn more and more, over time, deeper into our world. Very seldom do we approach in such a manner. And it is highly unlikely that what you would call a fairy king would approach this dimension.

Much has to do with the consciousness of people here. The wars, the inattentiveness to the natural world, less caring. But also the rapid pace of technology and industry which causes such a diversion.

So many young ladies (as well as men), for instance, seem to have an electronic gadget almost glued to their ear. Or ear phones of some kind. This would be rather unattractive to fairy folk. They would know you are preoccupied and not paying attention. Plus the electronic frequencies do interfere with the frequency of Faerie. So it is ever so much more difficult for us to connect. That is one reason I have advised people that if they want to see or attract fairies, it is important to have time out from these electronics.

Should a fairy take a fancy to one of you, it would probably be mere curiosity. We certainly would not try to get someone to fall for us. If that person perhaps showed signs of having very specific qualities and an awareness that we would resonate with, then interest might occur.

If that awareness were present, then it is possible that such a person could probably see us. The fairy would then try to show himself (or herself). And if the person was not too startled so as to break the connection, and if there was a mutual interest, then perhaps he would invite the person through a portal into the periphery of Faerie. To see how the person reacts. A small gift might also be given.

There are a lot of if's, as you can see. And it is such an effort that it is almost not worth it. I do not mean to say, of course, that people are not "worth it." What I mean is, to make a love connection is a bit improbable, and most of us would not proceed. And the issue usually is not whether the mortal falls for us, but that they are unable to maintain the connection needed for any length of time. And the same from our end.

If a young lady, say, declined interest in a male fae, then that fairy would most likely take the attitude of "as you wish," bow, and remove himself.

This is not to say such things would never, ever happen. Perhaps somewhere with someone, they would. Who knows.

Faerie Love
by: Alison

Ophelia, can faeries sense when one mortal has really strong love for another mortal? Just curious.

[Ophelia Fey says] - Yes, we definitely can. Love is an energy and a power. It is one of the most distinct things to be sensed.

Fairy Souls
by: Sunny

Actually, I read in a book somewhere that fairies don't have souls, but just life. If they die, then they just cease to exist, they won't be in the spiritual world or the real world. But yet again, I may be wrong :)

[Ophelia Fey says] - In a certain way what you say is correct. Nature Spirits are essence; that is, Life. Energy, as I have mentioned before. Part of the issue is that mortal words seem to have very specific meanings - and they mean different things to different people and cultures. So what you mean by "soul" and what I would mean by it, may be quite different. One must get beyond the words.

Energy is neither created or destroyed, as scientists say. It does not "cease to exist." All forms of energy continue to exist. Therefore, we do not die, we transition. Yet for most, our consciousness remains. The word "world" can also be confusing. One must think in terms of consciousness, and I know this can be rather confusing.

Fairies In Love
by: Fei Lin

Talking about Love...I've always wondered how fairies find their soul mates. Or you might know of mortals having divorce and then having to make that second vow to marriage again. How does a fairy find a soul mate? Be it the male or the female, I'd love to listen and know about the details on how a male faerie would win a female faerie's heart.

Or is it the other way around? Instead of having the male to woo the female fae, does the female fae do all the work? How does a faerie knows that it's true love? Be it with humans or a certain special faerie?

[Ophelia Fey says] - There is no specific formula or way, about fairy love. Keep in mind, we do not live in the same kinds of worldly dimensions (although some of us can move Between); nor are we just like humans, neither in form nor in "spirit." This is often difficult for people to grasp - understanding the true nature of nature spirits.

Spirits of nature, when pairing, tend to pair for life, which can be quite long in some cases. There is therefore a long period of maturing. Pairings often happen because of attractions of similar Purpose. Much bonding too, has to do with from which element a nature spirit has sprung. The fae of the earth element (sometimes water) that are nearer to your dimension and familiar with your ways, may have adopted more similar traditions as you have, out of curiosity and enjoyment of them. And these do evolve.

When two fae choose to bond or pair, it is because they have experienced a certain type of inner Recognition; a Knowing. It is a very distinct kind of Knowing. Sometimes it can happen at a younger age, and the two have much to learn and experience first. This is not necessarily seen as a hardship. Sometimes a choice does need to be made between a couple possible "suitors." But in the end, it is a Knowing. Whether the female or male does the wooing, is entirely up to the ways of that particular band or clan. And as I have mentioned, the realm of Faerie is vast.

Fey Love
by: Anonymous

If a fairy did fall in love with a mortal, would the mortal be able to live in the fairy world?

[Ophelia Fey says] - It is very difficult for mortals to dwell with any permanency in Faerie. And this is as it should be, for you belong in your own world to fulfill your own purpose. The physical body is not meant for any but your own dimension.

There may be ways for this to happen, though, but I would not be allowed to discuss them. It would happen if and when it would happen. And it would happen very infrequently.
