As the crisp air of autumn begins to sweep across the land, the Fae, elementals, elves, brownies, and little people come together in a grand celebration of the season. Fall is their time—a period of merriment, unity, and magic that fills the air with wonder and enchantment.
Throughout the summer, these mystical beings often go their separate ways, each group tending to its own duties and delights. But as the Autumnal Equinox approaches, they gather once more, ready to revel in the fullness of the season. The grand faerie parade, which marked the beginning of summer, now gives way to gatherings filled with music, dancing, and joyful celebration.
If you look closely, you might spot the delicate tents of cobweb white sprinkled along the ground. These aren’t mere dewdrops or fallen leaves—they’re the canopies for the Fae’s festive celebrations. Mushrooms dotting the forest floor serve as homes for elves and leprechauns, their doors open wide to welcome fellow magical beings. The Fae are also preparing for the grand entrance of their Royal Court, where King Oberon and Queen Tatiana, along with their princes and princesses, will hold court amidst a dazzling display of music and merriment.
As these magical creatures gather, they bring with them the energy of the season. The lazy days of late summer are behind them, and now they turn their attention to the bountiful harvest of autumn. They collect colored leaves and full-blooming flowers, using them to create charming cottages and secret hideaways, where they’ll reside throughout the fall.
During this special time, it’s traditional to leave out offerings for the Fae—coins of silver, cups of honey, and shimmering jewelry that catches the moonlight. These tokens of appreciation are presented to the King and Queen of the Fae as a gesture of goodwill. If you’re lucky, you might hear the distant strains of faerie music or catch a glimpse of their lights twinkling in the night, as they dance and celebrate the season.
As we welcome the arrival of autumn, let us also welcome the Fae and their mischievous, magical ways. Bless these little ones and honor the enchantment they bring to our world, for they remind us that magic is all around us, especially as the leaves begin to turn and the days grow shorter.
May the Autumnal Equinox bring you the same joy and wonder that it brings to the Fae, and may your heart be filled with the magic of the season.
