Welcome to another Faery Friday. Tomorrow is the Summer Solstice, the first day of Summer and Sunday is Father’s Day. I am really looking forward to this weekend’s celebrations. I hope that you are all doing well.
For today’s card pull, I am using the Faeries’ Oracle by Brian Froud with text by Jessica Macbeth. This is a single card pull since it is an oracle deck. If you like this deck you can get it for yourself. Just click on the picture below.
What do the Fae want me to share?
Today’s card is number 58 - Ffaff The Ffooter
Being Real. Earthing. Grounding. Centering.
Just as life is becoming surprising, exciting, and very interesting (though not necessarily fun), Ffaff the Ffoot Ffungus Ffaery comes along to check out our feet. He picks up one foot in his remarkably strong hands and looks it over for ffluff between the toes, smelly ffungi, and dirty, untrimmed toenails. If he finds any of these signs of disrespect for our feet and for Earthmama (walking on her with grubby ffeet, yukl), he marks them by making holes in our socks. If things are really bad, he sends mice to eat our dancing shoes so we will be forced to dance barefoot in the dewy meadows under the moon. If it happens that we have snow instead of dew, that is just our tough luck.
(Warning: Ffaff may have fungi on his fingers from someone else's foot, and if our feet are not clean, both energetically and physically, the fungi are apt to take root.)
He leaves that foot in the air while he inspects the other foot, lifting it up as well. Having done his inspection job, he wanders off, leaving us standing there with both ffeet in the air. "And"Ffaff snickers, "usually, conffused expreffion onyourjjaces."
This is not a good position for a human to be in. This is a test. Repeat: This is a test! You have been warned. The test is to get both ffeet, excuse me, feet back on terra firma. Do not try to do anything important or make any significant decisions until you have come back to Earth. Anything you attempt to do while standing with your feet in the air is apt to not work—if you are lucky. If you are unlucky, it will work — but not at all in the way you intend or hope.
Quick Faery Tips for Earthing
Stroke your feet gently with both hands, each one for five minutes. You can also check for holes in your socks while doing this. Paint your toenails bright red,- then your toes say a cherry (or should that be cheery?) "Heya!" to you when you look at them, and this reminds you to keep them on the ground. Even when you can't see them, it will probably still remind you, especially if you are a man.
Breathe. Ground. Center. Maintain (or recover) sanity by staying earthed. Do this now! Important information is coming your way, but you can only receive it properly if your feet are on terra firma and your head is well connected to the rest of your body.
Many of us forget that we need to connect with the earth. Some even go so far as taking it for granted. Now is a great time for grounding. Meditate and work on your connection with Mother Earth. There is so much that you can learn just by watching your environment. Why not go to a local park and just sit in the grass, sit under a tree put your feet in a stream. This is the time for you to do this. The sun is out later, enjoyed the extra light. Enjoy the outdoors.
For myself, I have been doing a lot of Earthing in my back yard. I love to work in the garden as well as just standing in the grass getting fresh dew on my feet. One of the things that I have been working on is trying to get outside as much as possible to make sure that I am getting enough sun.
Have you been out and Earthing? Have you cleaned your feet for inspection? Have you been getting out?
