What exactly is a Faerie?

I'm not sure if I spelled this right, but what exactly is a faerie? I am intrigued, I"ve read some of the posts here, but I can't grasp it. What are their functions?

an expression of the Fae energy.

and if we ask, what is the Fae energy?

I would say, the Fae energy holds in balance all that is physical.

I met one once. All informational telepaths. They are/manage cohesion in nature it appears.

Forget the "supernatural" bit, they are of this world, part of the energy of this world which, sometimes, manifests. Maybe a little piece of Mother Earth/Gaia herself.
It is possible that manifestations are becoming more and more common.

Fairies are a type of being some would call 'land' or 'nature' spirits. Fairies are distinctly Celtic in origin and have a wealth of folklore surrounding them and how people treated them - which usually contradicts the common conception of fairies in popular culture.

I've never seen one. I think most people wish there were fairies but I doubt anyone in our time has seen one.

I've never seen a Fairy either but I now think they exist. I imagned them as little people with wings, like Tinkerbell. Doreen Virtue has book on the elementals I will be getting it soon to read. I may try and attracted some Fae to my garden in the spring. Last year I had just learned of the Fae I asked them to care for a plant and its been doing really good.

A faerie is an imaginary character for children. Same as the tooth fairy, Santa Claus, Peter Pan, etc...

It proves that even adults, have the hearts of children
