“. . . .all of us elfae do remember who we are. However, we remember as spirits, in our Collective Unconscious, which is how we come to gravitate toward things elvish and fae and otherkin in the first place. We may not recognize our people consciously but we do recognize them instinctually.”

     One might think, and some apparently do, that we would know that we are elves or faeries or whatever we might be from our very earliest life. But, it is important to remember that being elven or faerie, as the world defines it, is merely an identity that most closely fits who we truly are. And what we are is pure spirit manifesting in our own unique and individual ways. The name elf or faerie is simply a means of indicating those tales, stories and peoples known by the world whose spirit most inspires us and, therefore, to which we most closely identify.

     We have also been known as Star Children, Space Gypsies, Flower Children and numerous other appellations. These appellations don’t change who we are but merely indicate the nature of our being. We may not remember a particular designation for us when we are quite young because, mostly, we don’t really remember anything of that sort unless we have achieved continuity of consciousness as spirits. This is to say that we would have, as adepts, developed the facility for remembering our previous incarnations through the Between state (see our book Beyond Death: The Elfin Book of the Dead. Ascending towards the Faerie Realms through Progressive Incarnations) and into our new life. Which is a very high state, indeed, which some might claim but very few have actually achieved. We Silver Elves, for instance, have a hard time remembering what we did last week or even yesterday let alone our previous lives, although we do have some sense of those lives, but that is another matter involving a different magical technique.

     At the same time, all of us elfae do remember who we are. However, we remember as spirits, in our Collective Unconscious, which is how we come to gravitate toward things elvish and fae and otherkin in the first place. We may not recognize our people consciously but we do recognize them instinctually. This, in fact, may be, in part, like deja vu. Our sense of being other is merely an inner recognition of those things and peoples that are like us, that we have known previously, which often manifests as an inner feeling that we wish to be like them or that we are like unto them.

     When we elfae folk do awaken, which is to say become conscious of the fact that we are elves or faeries, etc. or ascribe the title of elves or fae and so forth to ours’elves, there is often a sense that inwardly we always knew this was the case and we were ever awaiting that moment of awakening to occur. This is an event when what was primarily unconscious becomes conscious in a profound way and is usually highlighted by a profound sense of meaning, purpose and synchronicity.

     However, it should also be noted that most elfae folk always knew that they were elfae even when they had not as yet assigned the names of elf, faerie or some kind of otherkin to thems’elves. This is to say that they always were aware of being somehow different from the normal folk around them or felt out of synch with modern times, like they should be living or should be dwelling in another time, culture or world. The realization of being elfae merely makes the world that we really belong to clearer to us.

     Plus, it is important to realize that we are elvish spirits manifesting in humanoid form in the first place. Which means that we don’t always incarnate into the same genetic line that our previous body was a part of. In our previous incarnation, we may have been from a different worldly culture, with a different language and different stories about and names for we who are elfae and for our culture. Thus, remembering what we were called in another language would be problematic in our new one. Our new parents would most likely just think we were babbling babies and not realize we were trying to convey something really important to them.

     Which brings us to the fact that, being elfae folk, we probably start out by speaking some dialect of elvish or fairy talk in the first place. This also would just seem to our parents and other adults as though we were ‘speaking in tongues,’ in a sense, or stringing together meaningless sounds as happens in glossolalia. And like all children as we grow and learn the language of our new parents and society, we tend to forget or sublimate our true identities and our ancient languages, sometimes out of necessity, substituting the language commonly used by those around us at the time.

     So, why don’t we elfae remember who are from our very earliest lives? We do, actually, but for most of us just not consciously but rather in feeling and intuitively knowing we are unique and other. But our nature can be understood by observing our attractions and the nature of our spirit by those with elf sight and a true understanding, which is to say a wider understanding, of the nature of the world.

 BEYOND DEATH: The Elfin Book of the Dead

“WHEN SOMEONE PASSES FROM THEIR BODY, THE ELVES GUIDE THEM THROUGH THE GREAT FOREST TO ANEW LIFE IN FAERIE.”. . . . . . .This book is found here for purchase on Amazon USA and here on Amazon UK.

          BEYOND DEATH  by The Silver Elves is a guide for those who are dealing with the recently deceased or dying, as well as for anyone who would like to begin consciously preparing for their own demise. There are two parts to Beyond Death— the first part explores the theoretical aspects concerning death and the Between worlds from an elven perspective, and the second part of this book has practical admonitions and spells based on the Elven Star (7 pointed acute hexagram) that can help a person who is in the process of transitioning from one incarnation to another.

Another Bit of Fun for Elfae!
What is Your Magic Wielder Title?

This is a game to play using random numbers that you choose to find your type of magic making. To play, choose 3 random numbers, the first between 1 and 13, the second between 1 and 19, and the third between 1 and 17. Then use the 3 numbers to find in the lists below: your kin type, elemental association, and style of magic. Read these together and this is your magic wielder title. For instance, if you had picked number 1 for all three random numbers, you would be an Elfin Moon Enchanter! Whatever you choose, “Congratulations!”
