Hello everybody! I want this forum to be about Faeries. First of all I understand many many people do not believe in such creatures. Its hard to take I understand. But if you are a believer come on over here and comment because I love educating people - Properly - On what Faeries - Really - are. So first of all ill explain some common questions people have:
What really are Faeries?
Faeries are spiritual beings made up of energy, just like a spirit/ghost, they are on the earth to take care of animals, land, old castles and buildings, motte and baileys, and sometimes even people. Some say they are Earth angels.
Where do they come from?
There is another dimension, or plane of existence called the Astral Plane or Astral World. All spiritual creatures exist here, on different levels on the plane. Everything vibrates at its own rate so whichever vibration frequency it has (low or high) it exists on a certain level. The Fae are always able to pass through onto earth but the veil thins at certain times of the day (inbetween times) dates, times of year, occasions things like that.
Are they good or bad?
With Faeries you have no guarantee they are all good, though the bad ones usually dont stay around humans. Most are good, but just like humans can be rude, and bad tempered. You just need to know how to take them.
Do I see them?
Yes. I've always seen them. But not always as little human type figures. A Faerie can be a ladybug, or spider, can be the thistledown that blows, or a dandelion seed in the air. They shapeshift onto a form you will take most easily and also to protect themselves. There was once a time when humans and Fae were great companions, back in the old Celtic times and pagan times, but over the years we have lost belief, stole from the faeries they're land, trees and polluted the earth, so now most humans dont see unless they are open to it.
Do Faeries have categories?
Yes. They are put into an elemental category. Earth, Air, Water and Salamanders/Fire. Examples would be: Earth: Gnomes, goblins, pixies, dryads. Air: Sylphs. Water: Nymphs, Mermaids, Selkies etc. Fire/Salamanders: Salamanders (a type of serpent that goes greatly with fire element) and Fire Faeries (specifically work with fire)
Feel free to ask as many and any questions you like. I love to help!
