With the New Moon approaching many of you are being called by the fairies. Fairy magic, like witch magic is connected to the moon. But fairies like to play under the New Moon. Maybe it's the magical starry night with no Moon to brighten the sky or maybe it's because the moon is there but can't be seen. Just like the Wee Folk.
I’ve always said that some of us don’t learn to connect with the fairies l, we simply remember how. My own journey with the Good Folk began when I was a very little girl, long before I had words for what I was experiencing.
Newfoundland has always been a land where the veil feels thin, where the wind carries whispers, and where the old stories never fully went quiet. The Irish and Scottish settlers brought their fairy lore across the ocean, and the land here welcomed it like it had been waiting.
I grew up talking to the fairies the way other kids talked to imaginary friends. Except mine weren’t imaginary. They were present, curious, and sometimes downright chatty.
One of my more recent memories was at the Tree of Life. That place has always felt like a portal. I saw a little being there, gnome‑sized, lying casually on a log, in the fog forest like he had all the time in the world. He looked right at me and said hello as I walked by. There was no fear, no question, just recognition. Like we already knew each other.
Newfoundland fairy lore teaches that the Good Folk appear when the moment is right, when the land, the human, and the Otherworld all agree. And that’s exactly how it’s always felt for me. My encounters have never been forced. They’ve been invitations.
The day I moved to the Tree of Life, when I was leaving an apartment that had held so much healing and transformation for me, another fairy appeared. She perched on the outside light fixture, glowing softly, almost like she was woven from the bulb’s halo. As I turned to say goodbye to the space, she said goodbye to me. It felt like a blessing, a closing of a chapter, a gentle acknowledgment that my time there mattered
.Fairies in Newfoundland lore are known to be guardians of thresholds, doorways, boundaries, beginnings, and endings. They show up when something is shifting. They show up when we’re listening.And I’ve met them more than once.
If you’ve ever felt that shimmer in the corner of your vision, that tug in your intuition, that sense that you’re not alone in the most comforting way… you probably have too. Fairy connection isn’t about summoning or controlling. It’s about relationship. It’s about respect. It’s about remembering that the world is more alive than we were taught.
Blessings from me and from the fairy who always walks with me.
She tells me, "Don't tell them my name!" Fairies have a thing for names. If one ever tells you theirs, know that you've been honored with an incredible gift. Never give it away.
