Enchantment
When was the last time you allowed yourself to be enchanted in the way you were as a child? When did you last peek into flowers looking for Fairies or watch dragon clouds roar across the sky? Is enchantment best left to children and story book wizards or is there still room for enchantment in your life? If you are called to Faerie, then enchantment may yet slip through your door.
In Search of Enchantment
It has been said that we live in a culture devoid of true enchantment. We’re “enchanted” with objects our credit cards can buy, mesmerized by technology and its toys, spoonfed by flickering images dancing on flat screens, and caught in virtual worlds. Perhaps. But if you are tripping along the winding path to Faerie, searching for the gateway to step through, enchantment pours from the very air you breathe.
Wander through a wildflower meadow, a Japanese garden or an
old growth forest. Gape in wonder at the wings of a butterfly, gaze in awe as
meteors streak across the sky, close your eyes in reverie as the first fully
ripe strawberry of the season bursts in your mouth.You are enchanted, caught in the spell of an experience so
exquisite it throws you headlong into the vibrant essence of life. Each breath
sparkles with color, every sound is a song, magic plays on every breeze,
delight flutters at your hair, and mystery dances at the edge of your vision.
This is the enchantment that is summoned when you open your heart and your
imagination to the World of Faerie.
Once you’ve allowed Faerie to enter your world, you need no
magic wand waving wizard to hear a tree tell you a story or the wind singing an
ancient song. The woolly bear caterpillar wandering across your lawn becomes
your storyteller of the moment and the robin outside your window brings the
news of the day.
Anything that delights us has the capacity to whisk us to
Faerie – and it is only through being enchanted that we can enter that other
realm. It is our willingness to be enchanted that is required to let us see the
door.
Let your imagination wander through the scenes in this
calendar. Walk down the path with the magical creatures in the stories and take
them with you as you roam the sidewalks and highways of your “ordinary” world.
By opening your imagination and allowing these images and characters into your
life, you may find that every step you take is through a magical world –
because you’ve allowed yourself to become enchanted.
