An Ellyllon Fairy is often a WILD CHILD
"Sometimes the best thing to do is just sit down with a nice cuppa tea and pet your cat."
"Here's to the wild, the weird and the wonderful. To the tribe of troublemakers that think so far outside the box, they dream on the edges of the infinite. Here's to the brightly coloured, divine visionaries that won't stand down, play small or sit out.
Here's to the awakened ones whose purpose is to feed their soul and not starve it.
Here's to the wild ones. Here's to you." Ara

CATS: are the masters of flexibility, adaptability, magic and psychic power. They illustrate the value of being unique. Cats embody independence and communication, They help you embrace your ability to communicate with those around you or with the spirit and astral realms.
LEAF: symbolize happiness, growth and rebirth.
FEATHER: basically symbolises the divine. Feathers come from winged creatures of the sky, of the heavens, who fly free and unfettered above the rest of the world. When a feather comes free, it often flutters gently down to be found by us. So feathers represent freedom and also truth.
ACORNS: symbolize good health, fertility, prosperity, potential and strength. they embody immortality and celebrate life.
GREEN AVENTURINE: provides strength, confidence, courage, and happiness. It renews one’s optimism for life and pushes us to take action to acquire what we want in this world. This stone urges one to get out of their comfort zone and take on new opportunities.
