Do you believe in Faeries? As a child my mother enchanted me with her stories about how the faeries held tea parties in the garden and sat on mushrooms. When I see mushrooms on the lawn or in my garden or a forest I imagine, in my mind's eye, those little faeries sitting around in a circle giggling and relaxing in the evening. 

The history and legends of faeries are fascinating and go deeper into all the nature elementals including the Mermaids, Selkies, Sylphs, Gnomes, Tree People, Leprechauns, and more. 

It is said that every blade of grass has an angel hovering over it, calling to it, saying: “Grow!” The instant the angel calls forth a single urge to grow, it fades away. In the next moment another angel appears over the blade of grass, and it calls out, “Grow!” It too then instantly disappears, while yet another and another and another angel appears, fresh in every moment, urging the grass to Grow!

Thus, every single blade of grass has untold trillions of angels attending it, urging it to live. So too every leaf, every living being, and indeed every atom has its angels urging it to move, to fly, to be whatever it is. Yes, even every wave, every vibration, every nuance of this universe has its mystery which can be described in angelic terms.

You may look at the grass a bit different now. You may even see faces in the trees. The more I learn about nature spirits, the more I come across more guidance and miracles as my awareness deepens. the elementals are nature angels and very helpful if you just ask. 

So.... once you have been enchanted by the idea of these nature angels then as Rabbi Alan Lurie wrote  ...

Now you begin to realize that there are possibilities for understanding the world to which you were completely blind, because you absolutely believed your construct about how things are. Suddenly the incredible possibility arises that your construct may not be the absolute truth, and there is another way of seeing things. Then, in the birth of new possibilities you grow and are pulled forward, as new ways of seeing your life and the world appear. Then, you look back of where you’ve been with gratitude at the urgent, persistent whisper of growth.
