An Irresistible Book and Deck Set
|
The Fairy Pack highlights the wisdom of fairies and how they can help you with personal transformation. The deck is divided into four suits based on the elements - earth, water, fire, and air. There are ten fairies in each suit, including an elemental fairy and a fairy ruler for each. There are two additional cards in the deck - a rainbow fairy who embraces all the elements and a card repersenting the unmanifest. Though most of the fairies represented come from European traditions, five cards include fairies from Japanese, Middle Eastern, West African, Egyptian, and Native American traditions.
The cards are printed on thin, non-glossy stock, and the edges are sharp; however, this sharpness should wear away with use. The colors are soft and soothing. The artwork is slightly flat but very pretty. The fairies seem somewhat stiff and some of them bear a striking resemblance to others in the deck, but all in all the artwork is lovely and pure.
The book itself is beautiful with color illustrations of each of the cards. The right border of each page is also softly decorated with a design that represents each of the elements. The book provides a wonderful introduction to spirituality, meditation, and consulting oracles as well as some basics for attracting and working with fairies. Two pages dedicated to each card include the fairy's element, tradition, plant or herb, time of day, lesson, upright and reversed interpretations, and a magical task to help you invite a particular fairy's assistance or experience the lesson it brings. These tasks range from visualizations and meditations to spells to making altars to walks in nature , making charms, writing or baking. Five card spreads are presented for doing readings.
The book also includes a bit of information on angels and how invoking them along with your own guardian fairy can help you work safely with fairies. Face it - some fairy decks include some scary fairies! Some other decks present fairies as though only the cute, kindly, and wispy ones existed. The Fairy Pack strikes a nice balance, representing fairies as powerful beings who, when respected, can help us in tremendous ways and also teach us significant lessons. None of the artwork is this deck is frightening to look at, but the book does not deny that there are fairy energies with which we must exercise caution. This approach is helpful for those who may have been scared off from working with fairies altogether but who would still like to benefit from the wisdom of fairies. The Fairy Pack is an excellent meditation aid. I recommend it to people interested in learning about spirituality and fairies in a gentle way and also for those working through healing and recovery issues.
The Fairy Pack is for anyone who wants to know what it is like to be touched by a fairy!
