Weaving our Lives

Hello Friends of Bluebird Fairies,

I hope this finds you well.

In the Bluebird Fairies studio, I have begun to weave on the loom my grandmother gave me many years ago. Weaving is what first brought me to the South End Arts District of Burlington. The fairies joined me here. It’s nice that all the projects can coexist here.

Weaving is, especially during these very light filled summer days, an apt metaphor for living a full and enriching life. Here’s a fairy to cheer us on with that:

A smiling fairy with outstretched arms. A red heart is prominent on her chest behind which is the gold bodice of her dress which has a green and brown checked skirt. She proclaims in two speech bubble, "It's all coming together."

Summer is a time of many projects. I hope you have been enjoying yours! I look forward to sharing some of ours at Art Hop which is just around the corner, September 9-11.

Until you hear from us again, please, take a some quiet moments to sit in gratitude for all that is and connect in with the great energy around us.

We are sending you much love,

Emily and the Bluebird Fairies

My Heart Just Keeps On Singing

Hello Friends of Bluebird Fairies,

I hope this blog post finds you well!

In the Northern Hemisphere it’s summer. Today, Brian and I pulled a fairy from our deck to guide us through the summer months and it’s…

Words "Fairy of Oh my heart just keeps on singing" encircled with an ink line are above a red suited fairy with white wings hovering with two speech bubbles on either side saying "oh" and "yeah."

For so many reasons, I feel it’s perfect. I hope you do too.

For more support on strengthening your inner song please check out Lena Stevens’ July forecast which has the themes of Trust and Inner Strength at the Power Path School of Shamanism. You can find it here.

Onward and upward, everyone.

We’re sending you good energy.

Love,

Emily and the Bluebird Fairies

Welcome, Year of the Tiger

Happy Lunar New Year Bluebird Fairy Friends!

On February 1st, we’ll be firmly in the year of the Tiger. Well, as firmly as you can be with a Water Tiger. She’s fierce, emotional and ready to step daringly with you into your future. Are you ready? Here she is:

'Fairy of the powerful, passionate, and daring Water Tiger' is orange with black stripes white wings and exists in a star filled blue. "Trust your intuition, blaze new paths" in speech bubbles.e

As promised, we have some support to bolster your courage.

Gwendolyn Evans and I have recorded your Energy Map for 2022. This video will give you an overall word for the year and for each month, as well as a fairy for the year and each season. I look forward to hearing how these words and fairies work for you.

Gwendolyn and I are available for more insights.

As always, onward and upward with positivity and GRACE.

With much love,

Emily and the Bluebird Fairies.

Happy New Year from all of us at Bluebird Fairies

Dear Friends of the Fairies,

I hope this greeting finds you well.

In spite of our northern hemisphere moving into our darker, more reflective months of the year, so many of us have been filled with lots of DOing.

I have found that to be true - lots of DOing and, some it, I’m not sure I even need to be DOing.

I have had time this week to ease up, but then my demons showed up. For those of you unfamiliar with the under story of Bluebird fairies; we’re surrounded by demons. Our goal, though, is to name as many of them as we can. This releases them and gives us antidotes that nourish us. Here’s the demon that showed up for me on that first day of rest.

'Demon of blah what am I doing feelings. Below is a roughly drawn figure with big eyes, nose and mouth. "Antidote: Smile and move forward being present w/ your whole self.'



On that day, my yoga teacher, Emily Garrett of Laughing River Yoga, began class commenting on the many things we might be currently dealing with and then invited us to BE with it all. Here’s a fairy inspired by that comment:

'Fairy of being with it all' A fairy wearing a dress with a bright red heart in its center has their arms outstretched. 3 speech bubbles say 'feel' 'you' 'be with'.




I hope you can BE with it all in easy ways.

I’ll be in touch again with magic words for the year from Gwendolyn’s Cauldron and fairies from our Fairy of the Day App.

Happy new Year.

Love,

Emily and the Fairies



Fairy of Choice

Dear Friends of Bluebird Fairies,

We hope you are all doing well in your various efforts and endeavors, especially if some of them are rest and reflection.

An important word for these days, according to Lena Stevens of the PowerPath School of Shamanism, is ‘stamina’. She gave that word to the month of December. You can read her monthly forecast here.

The word I’d like to talk about today is ‘choice’ and here’s a fairy to deliver it:

a fairy with abundant hair on its head, wearing a dress with a yellow top and pink skirt. It has a red heart and holds a banner above it's head with the words' Yes, you can!" and two speech bubbles with "Setting your" "intentions", 3 green plants.

“Choice” is my word for the month of December. Last year (and the year before) I received words for each month of the upcoming year from my friend Gwendolyn’s magic cauldron.

I find these words give guidance to finding my way through life. For instance, this morning I found as soon as I employed the word ‘choice’ a heaviness in me around responsibilities and questions moved away.

I hope the ‘Fairy of Choice’ assists you in whatever ways you need.

In January, Gwendolyn and I will share with all of you, words and fairies for 2022.

And…please come visit us at our one and only holiday event on Saturday December 18th in the beautiful land of North Hero. The event is hosted by Kraemer and Kin in their brewery’s headquarters at GreenTARA Space. (see invite below)

Most importantly, stay connected to you as we all move forward. This is our one and only now!

Love,

Emily and the Bluebird fairies
