For this month's episode of Fabulous Folklore Presents, I'm thrilled to bring you a chat with Rose Aurora!
Rose is a fairy seer & sorceress, specializing in Faery, Elf, and Troll-related issues & spiritual needs. She is honoured to be part of a spiritual lineage of Celtic origin, but she is also trained in other spiritual traditions including Trolldom, of which she is a certified apprentice of Johannes Gårdbäck. Rose is a professional spiritual worker, conducting readings, spellwork, scrying coaching, and ongoing mentorship in the magical arts. She has also presented at the 2024 Salem Witch Fest.
In this conversation, we chat about elves in Germanic folklore, the links between elves and fairies in wider folklore, and how our mental image of elves is often shaped by the work of Tolkien.
