A friend of mine who participates in the Anderson Faery Trad recently asked me what I had learned in my time of predominant seclusion these last few years.. here's some food for meditation for Faeries in relation to the idea that Faery "comes from the Stars":
The Peacock God:

"The form of Mercury, according to the opinion of another wise man, is
the form of a baron wearing a crown, riding on a peacock, in his right
hand a reed pen and in his left hand a [sheet of paper/book] and his
clothes are many colors mixed. And this is its form."
Picatrix Bk II, ch. 10. (Translation by Christopher Warnock, Esq.)
The Horned God of prosperity:

"They made also another Image of Jupiter for a religious and glorious
life, and advancement of fortune; whose figure was a man having the
head of a Lyon, or a Ram, and Eagles feet, cloathed in Saffron
coloured cloathes, and he was called the son of Jupiter."
Three Books of Occult Philosophy Bk II, ch. 39
The Goddess and her Twins:

"From the form of Venus make the image of a seated woman with wings
with her hair braided behind [her back] with two braids with two boys
in her lap..."
Picatrix Bk II, ch. 10 (Translation by Christopher Warnock, Esq.)"
The darker Horned God of winter and time:
"For they made, from the operations of Saturn, Saturn ascending in a
stone, which is called the Loadstone, the Image of a man, having the
countenance of an Hart, and Camels seet and sitting upon a Chayr or
Dragon, holding in his right hand, a sithe, in his left hand a dart;
which image they did hope would be profitable for prolongation of
life"
Three Books of Occult Philosophy Bk II, ch. 38
Took advantage of today's election of Sun in Aries 19, his exhaltation, this morning at sunrise. I used invocations from Picatrix and consecrated some rose oil per instructions you can read here.
