SPIRIT OF FAIRIES
Nature Spirits and Elemental Beings: Working with the Intelligence in Nature, by Marko Pogacnik - NEW 2nd ED. IN STOCK

Have you ever looked at a tree and marveled at its beauty and strength? Or sighed over the colors of a landscape at evening? And as the emotion filled you, wondered if, somehow, Nature was sending you a response? This books adds a how and why to your feelings, joining heart and mind in a celebration of insights and satisfied curiosity.

The Sloveninan author Marko Pagacnik has a scientist's interest in the phenomena revealed by his extraordinary powers of perception, communicating with them and discriminating between them. The beings of ancient legend, fairies, nymphs, fauns and dwarfs, step forward and tell their story; their interdependence with the human world; how in times past people knew them and used their powers to benefit the whole Earth; how now they suffer from neglect and ignorance, their realms harassed and destroyed while the Earth withers; how they still still love us and forgive us. The encounter with Pogacnik fills them with joy and he pleads powerfully that we use the powers growing in us to make our own contact with the elemental world.

Pogacnik encourages us to find a quiet spot to meditate and converse with these beings so that we may re-establish the ancient connection between humanity and these real and powerful realms of Earth. The effort adds a fresh and vibrant quality to current environmental concerns. Yes, there are elves at the bottom of your garden, so go talk to them!

Although a lot has been written in recent years about nature spirits, Nature Spirits & Elemental Beings is remarkable in that almost everything described in the book is based on the author's own practical experiences in communicating with these beings through meditation and tuning in to plants, trees, animals and the landscape. He describes in detail the various elemental beings and their roles in maintaining the web of life, and also gives insights into related topics, such as the flow of energies within the landscape and the long-suppressed Goddess culture. His evocative images of the nature spirits draw our attention to the lost harmony of the natural world which has been disrupted by the impact of human culture. It is a tragic situation but one which can be redeemed if we rediscover our long-lost sensitivity to these realms and, as the author demonstrates, learn to heal the disturbed elemental world.
