Are Elves Hyper-sexual?

 

 “We have come to take our bodies to give our spirits birth.”

 If anything, we elves may be hyper-sensual. We are very in touch with the sensual, feeling aspects of the world in all its various forms. Thus we tend to be more intuitive than many others, not because they are incapable of being intuitive but because they so often discount their intuitive feelings. What they tend to promote instead is what they call their gut feelings, but more often than not, this has little to do with their true gut feelings and everything to do with their inculcated prejudices and what they call feelings are really mind dominated emotions.

     This is not to say that we are not sexual beings. But then most of humanity and in life in general are sexual beings. What differentiates elves from many others is not our interest in sexuality but our lack of shame in being sexual and our rather open attitude toward sex and nudity. Unlike many other folks, we don’t pretend that we are not interested in sex as they often do, for this pretense of lack of interest leads to perverse desires and behaviors all carried on in secret. This is the case with so many evangelist and politicians and other public figures who pretend they are happily married individuals who never have sex outside of their marriage who then have affairs, consort with prostitutes and have homosexual relationship while pretending to condemn homosexuality. Elves who are homosexual are seldom hiding in the closet, unless their lives depend upon it, they are out there for all to see. This is not to say that all elves are homosexual, surely we are not, or that all elves are hyper-sexual, but that elves are ever free to be what they truly are, and pursue their own interests and desires with mature and consenting others.

As elves in striving to be more enlightened as beings, we are seeking not simply to be more conscious, but more sentient in our consciousness, more feeling aware, more in touch on a feeling level with the all of life. This is, in part, why we have such a compassionate feeling for the trees, the whales and the all of life. We are in the now, alive and feeling, bring our spirit into matter. And this is why we often chant in our magic circles: “We have come to take our bodies to give our spirits birth.”

ELVEN SILVER: The Irreverent Faery Tales of Zardoa Silverstar

These are a collection of short stories by Zardoa Silverstar, one of the Silver Elves. You will find within this book a western, a detective story, parodies of popular movie and television characters, and re-imaginings of traditional fairy tales all told from an elven point of view in Zardoa’s wry irreverent pixie style. We trust you will enjoy them as much as we do.

The stories in Elven Silver were originally written to go along with the Elven Tree of Life to explore your magical being in our Elven Tree of Life Eternal. In the Elven Tree of Life Eternal, there are different types of elves and faeries that you can come out to be and the bottom has choices of what kind of magic you wield. So these stories in Elven Silver were originally written to go with those. But then we realized that it would be far too much to read on a website, so we made the stories into a book. We have also made the Elven Tree of Life into a book titled The Elven Tree of Life Eternal: A Magical Quest for One's True S'Elf, much like a choose your own adventure book, to use to explore your magical nature.

What Do the Silver Elves Think of People Who Wear Fake Wings to be Like Faeries?

"We think people going around wearing faerie wings is wonderful....
These elves do a variation of this —
what we might call nouveau magic or elfin attire..."

     First, let us say. “We love it.” To us, wearing faery wings about is not much different than someone wearing the traditional dress of their particular people and culture. These individuals are declaring their attachment to their culture and honoring it thereby. So, too, those who wear faerie wings are merely declaring to the world their faerie nature.

      We think people going around wearing faerie wings is wonderful. We are delighted every time that we encounter this phenomena. We also love it when individuals go about dressed as wizards or witches or whatever pleases and tickles their fancy. These elves do a variation of this — what we might call nouveau magic or elfin attire, which is to wear magical attire adapted to modern styles and vice versa.

     We are aware than certain individuals who are seen as authorities in the field of Fairy Faith lore hold the opinion that wearing faerie wings is a bit frivolous and doesn’t take seriously the profound nature of our relationship with the Faerie Realms. We disagree. We, on the other hand, don’t present ours’elves as authorities in this field. We are elves and our opinion is from the point of view of these elves, and not necessarily all elves, but it seems to us that interacting with our realms with the seriousness that most folks hold while going to church (or pretend they are feeling), while surely is a respectful thing to do, is not entirely necessary or even to be desired when relating to the Realms of Faerie and Elfin. So being a bit less serious and enjoying ones'elf with the feel of wings upon ones back or other costume accessories, is quite desirable among the Other Realms.

     While, like all people we appreciate being treated with courtesy and respect, in fact those who don’t do so often have cause to regret it, we do not see ours’elves in such a serious light that we expect or demand that people treat us like holy people. In as much as people can be holy, we are no more or less holy potentially than anyone else. And for us, one of the things that we’ve noticed about those individuals that we consider to be holy, is their compassion and their sense of humor.

     As far as we are concerned those who wear their faerie wings out and about are not being frivolous but being quite courageous. And we elves, like almost all people, greatly admire courage. We often wish that we were as courageous as they are. They inspire us and we are encouraged by them.

Are You A Faerie? . . . . . .

Are you a faerie?

I know me some

Gathering at dusk

After deeds have been done.

Beautiful faces, charming and sweet

Kind in a way that one seldom meets.

Their eyes all a twinkle

They give me a wink

I blush at the thoughts

They cause me to think.

I know some faeries

Playful and fun

It got me to wondering

If you might be one?

—From Caressed by an Elfin Breeze: The Poems of Zardoa Silverstar by The Silver Elves

 The Voice of Faerie: Making Any Tarot DeckInto an Elven Oracle

The Voice of Faerie: Making Any Tarot DeckInto an Elven Oracle is designed to allow the user to communicate with the Realms and Spirits of Faerie/Elfin/Elfland, the spirits of the Nether Realms, sentient and intelligent beings of this and other planets, this and other dimensions, this world and the parallel worlds connected to it, using any tarot deck. The authors channeled it from those very spirits who are searching for their kindred on the planet.
    This is a Living Book. It is designed to be used in concert with any tarot deck so that their meanings and concepts can be easily and readily accessible to anyone interested in communicating with the elven and faerie spirits of other realms and dimensions. This book can be read from cover to cover; however, we think it best if you read bit by bit as the cards speak to you.

    While this book can be used with any tarot deck, you will note that there are additional and alternative cards beyond traditional tarots deck, which have 78 cards. Thus this deck can also be used with other decks that exceed the traditional card set up or you can create your own deck using it. 

"Faerie is like a mirror, 

it reflects the nature of our spirit back to us 

so we may see ours'elves in a new light and 

stand amazed to be so different 

and yet still the same."

What Do The Silver Elves Think of Reiki? A True Elven Tale About Our Reiki Initiations!

Touch the Elven Star above for a Blessing!

"...in the end we became fascinated with Reiki and began using it in our
own healing practice and now do so daily sending out energy
to our kindred ... blessing and awakening the elfin and
all who are open to a better, more magical life."

     We elves, for the most part, particularly these elves, are interested in everything having to do with everything we are interested in. Since magic and healing are two disciplines of especial interest to these elves, it is only natural that we encountered Reiki as we went about our magical workings.

     Curiously, this has come about almost entirely without us pursuing it in anyway. We had heard of Reiki and knew of other elves who practiced it, but we simply hadn’t gotten around to actually exploring it ours’elves. Then, about thirty years ago, one of our sisters, whom we were visiting at the time, was in some of her early levels of Reiki Mastery and wanted to give us first level Reiki initiation. We agreed merely to be of service to her. It seemed important to her and we didn’t really care one way or the other, so we acquiesced and she initiated us.

     However, we didn’t do anything with it or explore it any further at the time. But, ten years later, a friend of our son’s came over one time and she was also developing into being a Reiki Master and wanted to initiate us. So again, we agreed, but also again, only because it was important to her in some way. In this case, she gave us first and second-degree initiations. And once again, we accepted it, but did nothing to pursue it any further.

     Another ten years passed by and our elven sister, the one who had initiated us the first time, told us that while she had a third degree initiation and had become a Reiki Master, that she had let her practice slip over time and that she wanted us to become Reiki Masters so we could re-initiate her. Alas, this required that she first give us third degree initiation. So she sent us several books by Diane Stein on the subject that we studied to develop our own skills and when next we visited her, she gave us the third degree initiation and then we turned around and did the same for her.

     This surely was a rather lengthy and roundabout way of learning this art, but in the end we became fascinated with Reiki and began using it in our own healing practice and now do so daily sending out energy to our kindred wherever they may be, blessing and awakening the elfin and all who are open to a better, more magical life.

THE SHINING ONES:

The Elfin Spirits That Guide You According to

The Shining Ones don’t really guide our lives individually but rather offer us lessons in magic and evolution as individuals, which is to say they have many students but tailor their teaching to the needs, aspirations and visions of each one. They are teachers who offer instruction and the courses you are offered are based in part on the day you were born, the period of the month and the month you were born in. Or really, you were born on a certain day because you are assigned to a certain required course. If you wish to further you relationship with those High Elven spirits who have gone before us, this book will help show you the way.

In reading this book, you will find that there is both a Shining One for each month, as well as a Shining One for each ten degrees of the zodiac, as well as a Shining One for each degree. Be sure and read all three of these that are associated with your or your loved ones particular birth date.

What's the Elfin View on Wearing Fur?

"... Zardoa holding a cane he made for Lupa, our sister who explores
being a wolf therianthrope in her book Otherkin,
and this cane is adorned with a scrap of fur that we had found
left on a free table at the swap meet and had held onto 
for about seven years awaiting just such a fitting magic."

     Those who are opposed to the wearing of fur and those who are strict vegetarian in our experience are often of the same disposition. And while we cannot speak for all elves, since no one can speak for all elves, we being, all of us, different and individual, these elves are against the slaughter of animals for their fur as we are, for the most part, against eating them when it is not necessary to do so. It just seems ignorant and wrong to us.

     However, we understand that in the past and perhaps in some places in the present, one had to kill animals and wear their fur to survive in harsh conditions. But wearing it as a fashion statement in a world wear one doesn’t need to kill to live or need fur to stay warm is rather callous in our opinion and wears upon one’s soul, making one less sensitive and aware.

     Yet, like most things concerning elves, we make exceptions. While we don’t buy fur to wear, we have to admit that no one as yet as far as we know has come up with a faux fur that is anywhere as cool as real fur is. And so sometimes these elves do wear fur, fur that we have obtained at flea markets and as is stores, sometimes just left on the table at the end of the day and thrown away at a swap meet. Now, that really seems sacrilegious to us, to buy the fur of some poor animal raised for slaughter and then, when it was a little worn, or no longer in fashion to just discard it. We feel a certain responsibility to honor these animals under these circumstances by wearing their fur. In many cases, we just hold onto the fur for years until we can incorporate it into some elfin costume or magical art we are making. The photo at the beginning of this article shows Zardoa holding a cane he made for Lupa, our sister who explores being a wolf therianthrope in her book Otherkin, and this cane is adorned with a scrap of fur we had found left on a free table at the swap meet and held onto for about seven years awaiting just such a fitting magic. Now, we know that there will be those who will disagree with us for doing this and that is their privilege, just as they will disagree with the fact that we will eat meat if our host offers it to us.

     Dr. Timothy Leary observed that in the years he spent living in the commune at Millbrook, the only violence that ever occurred was when some vegetarians beat up a guy for cooking a steak. We, for our own part, haven’t seen vegetarians beating anyone up for eating meat, but we did have this friend on Facebook, who un-friended us because we posted a photo of some pagan musical group wearing fur. It could have been faux fur as far as we know. It was hard to tell from a photo on the internet. But this individual got totally angry with us for posting it. It wasn’t even us wearing fur. (Eventually, after a few months, this individual requested to be our friend again, and of course, we were happy to allow this.) But to the minds of these elves, fanaticism is an even greater problem in the world than the unnecessary killing of animals for food or fur. We can understand how some folks wish to be very strict about these things for their own s’elves, but a certain tolerance for others seems in order. Otherwise, how can we have any influence on others who disagree with us if we don’t at least try to understand their point of view, even if it doesn’t always make sense? The fact is, you can’t force people to change, at least not in any positive fashion.

     There are those following Ancient Wisdom Traditions who proclaim that man is still working out his overall fear of animals left over from ancient days when they were dragged out of their dwellings and eaten by wild animals. It is thought that mankind will one day relax this inner fear that separates them from the animal kingdom and live more harmoniously with all animals; and at that point, meat eating and killing for fur will be a thing of the past. From an elven point of view this makes sense as we know humanity is evolving toward elfinness and this takes time. We elfin are beings of starlight and we believe that in our most evolved s'elves we are most nourished feeding off light and loving all living beings.

The Elven Way: The Magical Path of the Shining Ones

"The Elven Way passes beyond the fields of the known
into the forest of the unknown illuminated by the glow of the elves."

(quote on the top of the book cover)

THE ELVEN WAY: The Magical Path of the Shining Ones describes the Mystical, Magical, Spiritual Path of the Elf folk and their connection to the Shining Ones, those supra-dimensional beings who are our guides, guardians, ancient kindred and the source of Elven enlightenment. The Elven Way takes the reader beyond the field of the known and lays the road into the forest of unknown, revealing new, wonderful and exciting secrets about the world of Magic, the Path of the Elves and the rich Elven heritage. This book is about High Elven Spirituality and Magick, the philosophy of the Elven Way, and the teachings of the Elves. It is written for all elves and all those interested in learning more about and following the Elven Path, for advanced Elven adepts and magical folk of all kinds. The Elven Way reveals much about the Shining Ones, who are the ancient elves and our guardians, our Eldars, who are highly advanced and divine beings that help and protect the modern Elven folk today. It explores both the psychological and the spiritual component of the Elven folk and the development of this component! The Elven Way provides a vast reservoir of knowledge about how this world is arranged and how it works, who the elves are, and what is the Elven Spiritual Path!

"There is no physical feature or features that make someone elven, 

what makes someone elven is the magic of their spirit 

and the wonder of their soul."

—The Silver Elves

What Oracles Do Elves Use? Part 6: More Original Silver Elves Oracles

"...there are also books that can be used for oracles
that are not necessarily oracle books."

     As we’ve said elsewhere, these elves love all sorts of oracles, and we think among those who enjoy doing or having oracles done, that this is probably true for most folks. Certainly, there will be those who prefer this oracle to that, and those who have their preferred means of doing or receiving oracles. But we expect, without having done a scientific study to see if this is so, that most of us are intrigued by a variety of forms of divination. These elves, for our own part, are very fond the Tarot and the I Ching, but love to learn and see other techniques done. We’ve even known elves to use Bibliomancy, which is opening a book at random and letting one’s finger fall on a sentence or word. We’ve surely done this ours’elves just for the fun of it.

     But there are also books that can be used for oracles that are not necessarily oracle books. One of these, for instance, is our An Elfin Book of Spirits, which is designed for conjurors so we might call spirits to aid (and abet) us. One might, if one so chose, go through the book and find the spirit that is right for the magical task one has in mind. However, these elves like to use a divination system, which we explain in that book, and toss stones to see which spirit we get at random. Then if we get a spirit that especially suits our quest we take it as a very good sign. Although, sometimes we get a spirit whose expertise seems totally different than the task we have in mind. We still assume this is the right spirit for the job, but we are then called to reflect upon why that particular spirit would be so. It challenges our imaginations the same way a dream or a surprising response from the Tarot might do so and we love puzzling out dreams.

     Another of this sort of oracle is our Elven Book of Dreams that is designed to help elves understand thems’elves and others by associating the degree of the Sun sign, the Moon, Jupiter or any other planetary body or aspect of one’s horoscope and getting a response about it that illuminates the individual’s nature and hir evolutionary path. But this can also be used, utilizing the same set of stones that we use for randomly drawing spirits, to obtain an oracle. This book, simultaneously, has spell chants that can be used to help one achieve one’s goals.

     And similar, in certain ways, is our book The Shining Ones, that is designed to help one find the Shining One, the angelic elven spirit that guides one, much in a way of a guardian angel, and overlooks one’s life course and development, according to one’s birthday. One could, in fact, pick any date or day of the year, say the date one is getting married or starting a business or job, etc., and find what Shining One rules that date and in that way also obtain a sort of oracle for one’s quest.

     We could say using these books in this way is a sort of Bibliomancy. Only instead of opening the book at random (although you could still do so) one uses stones or in the case of the Shining Ones, picks a date that is relevant to one’s quest or spiritual evolution. As Aleister Crowley pointed out in his book Magick Without Tears, the whole Universe is like a book that we can read, seeing the omens and oracles and hidden meanings that exist all around us. We just need to learn the methods for reading this most wondrous and esoteric of languages, the Language of the Universe, the Chant of the Stars, and the Song of Elfin.

What Oracles Do Elves Use? Part 5: The Elven Star Oracle

"...born of our own magic and culture....we created The Elven Star Oracle:
A System of Divination for Star Enchanters....based upon the seven pointed Elven Star"

      We, like many, perhaps most elves, love oracles and divination. We love doing them. We love experiencing them. And we even love puzzling out their meanings when the answer we have gotten to a question is truly esoteric and mysterious. They stretch our minds and imaginations. Tarot cards and the I Ching are surely our favorites and while we have a passing acquaintance with palmistry, also known as Chiromancy, it has never really intrigued us as much as the Tarot has, although like the use of cards for fortune telling, we began doing palmistry at a very early age. And unlike the tarot or other oracles, it doesn’t require one to carry around a deck. Thus we have been at parties or other gatherings and read someone’s palm on a moment’s notice.

     Because of our elven nature, and the fact that much, perhaps most of what applies to our elven culture has been lost through the ages of persecution by more dominant and dominating cultures, we have taken the tarot, runes, I Ching and other oracles and made them our own. Giving them our own interpretations with a more elven, and often in some cases, a more magical slant. And in some cases, as for instance the I Ching, we've removed the patriarchal bias that is part of their traditional formulation and is just not a part of elven culture. Our culture is based principally upon equality, but if we did have a tendency, it would be more toward a matriarchy than a patriarchy. But the strict division of male and female that have been so much a part of the cultures of man is not really a part of the elven culture and those who make it seem so are merely drawing us closer to the cultures of mankind and others and away from the true nature of Elfin. We don’t deny them their right to do so, if that is their choice, but choice is always the primary aspect of our elven life.

     There are, of course, elven tarot decks in the world today in as much as having pictures of elves or faeries or gnomes on a deck makes it elven or elfin. But most of these, like most actual decks overall, are just versions and variations of the Waite-Rider deck, and have nothing particularly elven nor even in many cases inspiring about them. Still, they can be fun and in as much as they remind us of Elfin, our elven culture and our elvish kindred, they can be quite helpful and interesting. And while these elves may not find a particular deck interesting, it is quite possible that some other elf will gain greatly from it. We don’t presume that our tastes are universally held, even among elves.

     And while our elven runes and our version of the I Ching are quite useful to us, and a great addition to any divination session, we still hungered for an oracle that was uniquely elven. Something that was completely our own, born of our own magic and culture. Thus we created The Elven Star Oracle: A System of Divination for Star Enchanters that utilizes a board that one creates (or could even draw in the sand in times of need) and that one throws stones upon (instructions for making and using the board as well as an illustration of the board and stones is included in the book). The Elven Star Oracle is our original divinatory system invoking the 88 major constellations and the blessings of the Shining Ones for guiding one through the world and ever closer to the realization of Faerie. It is called The Elven Star Oracle because it is based upon the seven pointed Elven Star, sometimes called the Faery Star, and the areas between the points, overlaid on the dimensional manifestation of Faerie and the realms that are linked to it.

     It could surely be used as one’s primary oracle, particularly when communicating with or about the Elfin and Faerie realms, although we are still inclined to use the tarot in various forms and the I Ching as our primary source of divination and to supplement them with our Runes and Star Oracle, as well as others. Doing so gives us a more complete picture and a more thorough answer and this is particularly true when the answer we first received was somewhat puzzling.

     Rather than simply doing the oracle over again with the same deck or doing the I Ching again immediately concerning the same question (something that we’ve found with the I Ching to be particularly ill advised because the answers will just get more and more painful to hear) we use these our Elven Runes and Star Oracle to give us a fuller picture, while not contradicting the original oracle we received. It is in this way our means of simply asking the oracles to say more and give a fuller picture, a more in depth explanation. Still, in the end, it is always we elfin ours’elves who must interpret the answers given according to our own experience and understanding and there is simply no way to get around this, nor would we wish to do so really.
