There are those who seek Faerie as a place of refuge where they may slip away from all their problems. Welcome to Elfland. Faerie is a Realm of Power. You must have power to enter Faerie and within it all your thoughts and wishes begin to come true. Fortunately, in most cases the consequences of folly in Faerie is simply to come tumbling out baffled and confused.
Self importance is the opposite of power.
It is the pretense of power. It is a defensive mechanism designed to separate ones'elf from others and Faerie dissolves all boundries. It brings us together in a fashion so intimate that our souls intertwine. On the other hand, when we approach Faerie in our innocence and vunerability with childlike openness and a willingness to learn and transform, it wraps us in a shimmering gauze of protective threads creating a chrysalis of magic about us. You may try to go there on your own.
