Fairies 101: An Introduction to Connecting, Working, and Healing with the Fairies and Other E lementals

This is definitely a "Fairies 101" book and not an advanced or scholarly text on fairies-- but that's what it's meant to be. It's an introduction to fairies, their roles on earth as guardians of nature and animals, and how we can communicate with them, help them in their mission, and ask for their help. The illustrations are beautiful, though at times it's a little off-putting to always have the fairies depicted as voluptuous model-types. But they are lovely nonetheless.What I appreciate most about this book is the stories of people's interactions with fairies. It gives a sense of the kinds of circumstances in which we can call upon the fairies, as well as our own responsibilities in relating to them.I've read a lot of Celtic lore about fairies, especially the first-hand accounts collected by the poet William Butler Yeats from the rural Irish a century or so ago. I've always struggled to reconcile the stories of fairies as malevolent tricksters who will steal your cow or carry you off never to be seen again, hide your shoes, and so on. Doreen Virtue explains that fairies, while willing to help and befriend us, respond to our own energy. If we do anything to harm the land, are careless about taking care of this earth, are cruel or thoughtless toward the animals and other living things that dwell here, we can expect their wrath rather than their friendship. But if we aid them in their work of caring for the natural world of our planet, they will be happy to respond to our needs and requests as well.Again, this is Fairies 101, not an advanced treatise. It's an introduction. It's also a required text for Doreen Virtue's online Fairyologist course, which I just completed. Adults and children alike will enjoy this book.

This book is a great simple and fast read. But don't let that stop you from ordering it. It is filled with lots of information about the fairies and how to connect and work with them. It also gives stories about other peoples connections with the fairies and how they have helped in there live. I bought this book to read as part of Doreen's Fairiologist course and I am so happy that I did. This book is great for that young child that has an interest in fairies, and for the adult that wants to work with them. But it is also great for those that just want to learn more. It's under 200 pages so for me it was an afternoon read but a great one.So pick yourself up a copy while it's in stock and learn a bit about living with the fairies, we all have the not me fairy, and I didn't do it fairy in our homes so lets add some helpful and fun ones as well. Also it's something great to read with your kids and enjoy.

I absolutely loved Fairies 101 by Doreen Virtue. This is a great accompaniment to the Certified Fairyologist course and has beautiful images and photographs of the Fae. It's charm awakened my inner child and the delightful readings and descriptions within the book also helped me to share about the fairies, the nature spirits and their spiritual purpose as guardians of our natural environment and of the animals. If anyone is in the field of environmental activism and sustainability, this book acts as the balance of experiencing fun, spirituality and playfulness when having to deal with the heavy side of environmental sustainability.

I bought the ebook version of this book and read it in a bit over an hour. It really helps you to understand who they are and opens your mind to the infinite possibilities in working with Faeries. MThe only thing I can say which was not very good about this book is that it is quite short for the money you pay. The photos are beautiful. Now I have to buy Earth Angel if I want to learn more about them. Overall, a good intro book.

Colorful, easy-to-read introduction to the elemental world of fairies. Informative yet "bright and breezy" ... beautifully illustrated. I think it would make a lovely gift. This may sound strange, but I think If you allow yourself to relax and simply "go with the flow", you will get more out of this book than if you stridently focus and "ponder" this topic while reading it.

The illustrations were lovely and the stories affirming that, indeed, fairies do exist. However, including a history of the fairies, and their connection with the Tuatha Dé Danann is, in my opinion, necessary. I found the book juvenile, in a way, and, mixed with the fact that I received a book with several pages coming out, will be returning it. Other authors have written more completely on elementals and their historical significance. My money will be put to better use with one of those.

I just recieve the book yesturday and red the whole book with great amazement and surprises. Its looks as if I am in the Fairies kindom and hearing them talking to me directly.. I will continue to read it to master every technique set in the book, and I know with faith and great determination I will achieve my aim of this Celestial science. This the time for everyone to wake up and grab this opportunities of blessings. Thank so much with lot of luck and love.

Great read, brief overview and stories. Not as much info as I'd like but its a start

Llegó en buenas condiciones, y el material de las hojas es mate, como de hojas de revista. Muy buen artículo.

Great introduction to learn more about fairies and other elementals. Easy to read; it will make you look in your garden for fairies and want to have a more positive relationship with nature and animals to connect with the fairies!

ずっと聞いていたくなるくらい、素敵なテンポでした‼ ただ、英語の訳が分からないので、いつか理解出来たら嬉しいです…

I really enjoyed this as a way to get into fairies and explain exactly what they are. Perfect for newbies who are looking to confirm they're not crazy, just awake to the wonders of the world.

This book has answered a lot of my questions about fairies and will help me my further studies thank you very much
