Albion is an ancient name for Britain, evoking the magical energy of the island from pre-Christian times. For thousands of years people lived on the isles of Albion in relationship with nature spirits, the mysterious faerie folk and celtic deities. Well into the Christian era pagan practices that celebrated our relationship with the land and the seasonal cycles of nature continued. In fact the combination of new religion and ancient wisdom on this isle has led to outpourings of mystical art, philosophy and poetry over centuries (and soooo often the artists have been queer).
The Faeries of Albion are an ever-expanding collective network of lesbians - gay men - transsexuals - bisexuals - and queer heteros who meet to
celebrate the spirituality in our sexuality
develop our skills as healers, shamans, ritual workers
and as drummers, storytellers, poets, artists..............
celebrate nature and commune with her spirits
meet from the heart in a spirit of community
We are proud to be part of the expansion of gay/queer life into the realms of the heart and spirit; to promote self-awareness, expression and growth; and to renew the tradition of Albion as a magical island where the wonders of spirit are manifest.
The Albion Faeries are part of the global faerie web, connecting awakening, nature-loving, compassionate queers the world over... there are faerie sanctuaries in north america, australia and france, and gatherings all over the place. check the links page for contacts
