I know were a coven for dragon magic but this will help,
as we all know the possibility of a dragon on the earth plane is sadly low. but farie's live on the astral plane so if you work with something on our plane it will be easier to contact a dragon on the astral plane.
Faery magic is one way to help with contacting a dragon I believe the more magical beasts you encounter and work with the easier it will be to work with dragons.
You are right! - working with all kinds of elemental beings is only going to make you more connected to the astral world, other-world, underworld, or some call it the elemental world; and the more you work towards the better. Working with all kinds of different elemental beings helps open you up to more relationships and better understanding of working in the two worlds...
The information on the site you provided is good. I am all about the Faery Magick - I just love working with the Fae Folk and I agree that Dragon Magick and Fae Magick co-inside wonderfully.
In fact, it was my love of the Fae that ultimately brought me to working with Dragons!
One thing though - I would never call elemental beings such as Fae, Dragons or Mermaids/Mermen beasts! They are to be respected to the highest degree and if there was a beast in the equation I would put that title on humanity and not the elemental beings that some of us are working with.
They are the beauties and we are the beasts, per say. They can help us grow to be our best and help us in many ways, but they are never to be underestimated or thought of as less than us. We are ultimately seeking a respectful friendship, partnership and learning exchange with these beings and in many ways we are the naive and they the wise.
I am happy to see that you have related the two and that you are interested in Faery Magick in accordance with Dragon Magick! Bravo!
When reading stuff of the sort, this is where personal judgement and common sense comes in.

The Nature of Faerie
Inter-Dimensional Space/Time
Common questions at this point in the study of the Elven-Ffayrie tradition concern the nature of the Faerieland that we speak of when we refer to the Elven-Ffayrie as transitioning into an Otherworld. Where, in fact, are these beings now when not assuming a human simulacrum? Where is it that they really inhabit? Surely if we were to dig up the mounds or beneath the Earth [please dont] , we would not find their physical forms. Naturally the nature of Faerieland is easiest to understand by someone with a background in quantum metaphysics and string theories, or if you have read the novel Flatland. For those readers who have not been privy to this type of knowledge beforehand, you may have to meditate on the forthcoming information very carefully until gnosis, enlightenment, or just general understanding occurs.
Without this "new/old" paradigm it would be nearly impossible to understand the true nature of the Creatures of Faerie. In this chapter, our focus is shifting from the physical to the Otherworld Elven-Ffayrie who were pushed out of the mortal space/time, and are not the Third Dimensional Wizards sharing the name "Elven-Ffayrie," those remaining scions of the Elven Way. While the lore of the Wizards (explored in "Elven Wizardry") does indeed reveal some manners in which contact may be made with the Otherworld Elven-Ffayrie, nowhere in the lore of even medieval grimoires is there an actual conjuration rite, such as sorcerers have used to bind and command other types of spiritual entities. This may upset the foolish seeker who expects to find a spell in this book to command Faerie to do their bidding. That would make them no better than the Milesians who thought to enslave the race for the same purposes. Such inclinations come from the desires of Human Sorcerers and would never be conceived of by Elvish Wizards.
The other major let down to Human seekers who rely on the absolute and finite to process their experience, is that there is no real map or way to chart the regions and geography of the Otherworld. At the very least it would require the ability to graph 4+ (possibly 10+1) dimensions at a single point. Some mystics and scholars have simplified the abstraction implying that the Otherworld is mainly a duplicate of the physical world, just existing on a higher vibration or frequency. This introduces the idea of a poly-dimensional or multi-dimensional reality and inhabitants with the ability or property of integrating or transitioning into the physical world at will or at certain natural thresholds.
The subject of time is difficult to capture pertaining to the Otherworld (or even in general.) Past accounts would suggest a year in Faerieland is equivalent to seven Earth-years, like a dog. This could only be a suggestion, because other stories report folk staying in the Otherworld for long periods, even years, yet they return to their world with seemingly only moments having gone by. This subjective time/space characteristic has been often misunderstood or ignored in the ages past. It is significant when studying the nature of an inter-dimensional Otherworld, the Elven-Ffayrie or even misunderstood "gray-aliens."
By accepting this "new/old" Faerieland Paradigm a seeker will uncover the answers once overlooked by the contemporary world concerning the Universe as whole. When I generalize about "contemporary science" I do not include the quantum-metaphysics field, and so I wish to clarify this to the reader. The field and research of quantum physics (like those made public in "What the Bleep Do We Know") will continue to be seen as "pseudo-science" until contemporary scientists finally reach their limits and start asking us (e.g. the best way to use quartz for a computer chip,) and we get a chance to work with the aetherial forces of the Universe as a society once again. Tesla was probably already moving on this path, but his work was suppressed and even stolen.
The space/time of the Astral Otherworld, is both fluid and still, which is also the best way in which we can describe the nature of "light" (being both a particle and a wave.) The ability to move about an Astral Dimension is more a matter of willpower and mental impression than physical movement. Using the same internal faculties and muscular impulses that we would to move about the physical world, we can move our Astral form. It is possible that this same internal force is what allowed very adept Wizards to move objects seemingly with their minds alone, or with the aid of crystal rods or wands. Sympathetic Magick is made possible using imitation and representations. If we were to see this being performed, I am sure we would be witnessing the magician imitating the very actions he would be taking as if he were actually lifting the item himself.
Robert Kirk gives the only good first-hand account of Faerieland experience. This occurred toward the end of the Dark Ages, but being a respected minister, Kirk got away with it. In his treatise The Secret Lives of Elves & Faeries he demonstrates a growing skepticism of his previous beliefs concerning "moment-to-moment" time. In the case of Kirks experiences in the Otherworld (except his last,) they seem to occur with only moments passing in the "Lands Above" or Middle Earth world of Humans. It is as if Kirk was trying to say, without the privilege of having use of quantum terminology, that events and places in Faerieland existed from an infinite palette of waves of possibility, which only become narrowed down to particles of finite experience, by will and observation. The "Observer" has the ability to manipulate what is seen and felt in the experience based on expectations, attitude and willpower, similar to the psychology of a psychedelic experience.
My understanding of the multi-faceted Universe came from meditation on the "Elf Rune" or "Sign of Awen," which revealed Natures own "forked" blueprints: GLEAC, that is, "The Gnomonic Logarithmic Expansive Accelerated Circuit." Dont worry about this terminology, just know that GLEAC is the manner in which cell-life grows, art is painted and rabbits multiply. It has determined the dimensions of a credit-card and the 3x5 index card. This is, of course, the "Fibonacci Sequence" developed by a mathematician by making a number in a sequence the sum of the two before it, as follows:
1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144
When graphed we see tree growth (the "Logarithmic Tree") and the beginning of the fractal snow-flake or "Sign of Elves." The secret of Natures growth is hidden in the Elves own runic insignia! By metaphysically approaching mathematics we arrive at the "Phi-ratio" or "Golden Ratio" represented by the "?" (phi) symbol. The ratio or relationship of a number in the sequence to the one before it is ?, written as 1: ?, or one-to-Phi, estimated as 1:1.618. Like "?" (pi,) the number ? is an "irrational number" meaning it has no finite end (that we are aware of) which "is not rational. This might lead one to believe that the Phi-spiral and Pi-circle/sphere are Otherworldly in Nature.
Those caught off guard by the mathematical terminology should consider the following: 5 divided by 3, 13 divided by 8, and 144 divided by 89. You can do this math on a calculator, or by hand if youre feeling brave, and youll arrive at the following set:
Premise the First: A point with no dimensions bisects a one-dimensional line-segment.
Premise the Second: A line-segment bisects a two-dimensional plane.
Premise the Third: A plane bisects a three-dimensional cube.
Conclusion: The 3D cube bisects a 4D cube2 (hypercube) and if this can occur, then three-dimensional space bisects a fourth-dimensional hyperspace.
Readers of Flatland know that a 2D being could not adequately conceive of a third-dimensional plane any more than a 3D being is going to be able to fathom the fourth-dimension using a 3D tool-bag, education and paradigm. In fact when the three-dimensional sphere passed through two-dimensional space (in Flatland) it did not appear of its true form and could not. It was able to look down on to 2D space without the 2D inhabitants being able to see it, and when the 3D sphere passed through 2D space, it would have looked like Figure 3a from "above," passing completely through and finally disappearing from a point or speck just like when it arrived. The 2D being was capable of perceiving only a series of points and line segments from the side.
The main tenet of the Flatland-paradigm is, "What would you see if you passed a marble through this page and were a being that could only perceive the part that actually passes through the paper at any given time?" It would be like a wall suddenly appearing then disappearing! When you realize how something in one world can affect another world in a way other than how it really is, you will be able to better understand the Faerieland and encounters with the inter-dimensional Creatures of Faerie. [Note: upon revising this manuscript in early 2006, The Rabbit Hole Version of What the Bleep do we Know? has been released and includes an animation of this concept exactly!]

Nice info. Indeed, working with the other planes improves you in mostly every way, even if you do not see it at first.
