LORE OF THE GOOD FOLK.

I write this updated portion whilst trying to separate the concepts of nature spirit and deva in a different dimension and of a different,higher vibration with the flesh and blood "otherkin" that are and were reported to exist..as well as the people who consider themselves totally otherkin by the lightness or darkness of their spirit. I hope to figure all of this out in the near future.

My belief in the fae/fairth folk begins at the point of they and the humans living next door to each other upon this good earth.I know not where either of us came from originally.The fae and humans could easily access each others worlds and lived happily and merrily together. Both groups of beings believed in a mother goddess and her consort god and they took each others existance to be just another bit of diversity in the plan of the earth..just as the varying flowers and trees. Each had their own ways of reproducing but the occaisional blendings of the energies between human and fae would produce offspring.These were few and far between and only happenned between adepts of high degree. Fostering was very much popular though and many a human had foster fae parents and vice-versa. Fae taught humans about their dimension and what was possible and humans taught fae about theirs. At some point in time splits happenned in other human tribes and wars began. Humans and fae split into splinter groups due to political and philosophical beliefs and only now are things slowly beginning to heal. I have no clues as to how the great splits happenned and also why the fae developed a fear of mined and smelted iron...perhaps this signaled the split..who knows. The memories of many humans who had previous lives as fae are returning now at an incredible state..this may be signalling a time of peace again..an ability to free ours'elves of fear. Only time will tell. I will update this page as often as my own beliefs and memories evolve and enlighten and continue to ponder. Blessings! All over the world there are instances of good folk beliefs.Every culture has their own stories of small people,nature spirits etc.The nature spirits are as individual as you and me....some good-natured and some not so.They live cheek by jowl with us on this earth and between dimensions and worship the god and goddess as many pagan folk do.To worship and kow-tow to the nature spirits for their "help" in doing what their normal work asks of them is considered insulting to a degree and it makes sense.They are not there to make our lives easier or better or to help us.The nature spirits are doing their part in the plan of god/dess as should we,ourselves,be doing.We take care and they take care.Although the nature spirits are different in outward form..we share responsibilites and aims.No one is greater or lesser.The one thing that we have lost (but can be re-gained)is our ability to access the different dimensions easily.I believe that this has come about by our reluctance to still our minds and quieten the chatter of every day life.Getting away from the noise and scattered energies can help.

FAERY SIGHT REGAINED. I believe one of the best ways to come into the faery sight is to move the brain waves into alpha mode..that is a light trance.Repetitive motions or sounds can still the mind.Drumming or clicking rocks together or chanting can cause you to come into a trance.Dancing repetitive movements can also cause a trance to descend upon you.This may take a long time or a short time depending on your susceptability to alpha states.Wait and be patient for something to happen.It is a good thing to send a prayer to the goddess/god for protection and to access these worlds.It is also good to tell the good folk what you wish to do and that you mean no harm to them.The good folk have reason enough not to trust the large ones(humans) so being earnest in your statements is a good thing to be.When you find that you have contacted a good folk or nature spirit ..introduce yourself and ask it questions as you would anyone.Be polite..do not condescend and if at any time you feel an underlying ominous threat.. then leave immediately.Slap yourself all over your body to awaken and ground yourself.This is important.You must re-connect with the mundane world you are inhabiting now.If not properly grounded you risk falling or getting hurt in some way.You also risk having stronger personality move in on you when not grounded well.Congrats! you have made your first faery contact...or at least tried!!!! sometimes the good folk just don't feel like it.

HOW TO RECOGNIZE A FAE/HUMAN MIX. I have found similar traits in faery/human mixes..these are as follows: a tendancy for acting on the impulse,a free-spirited approach to life,usually looking and/or acting somewhat odd to most humans,a gentle sweetness with a dreamy quality or an intensity..a need for passionate experiences that decry description,a love of music..dancing..song,a need to be with nature in an intimate and personal way,a childhood of talking to insects and plants..an interest in the world of small,a love of animals,a feeling of being alone and misunderstood most of the time,a refusal in letting the inner child be silenced or forced to grow up,an attitude of why not? instead of why.These are the ways of finding kin...long lost and half-remembered.IMPORTANT BITS. Regarding gathering of plants for power use; Use a non-metal object for the gathering of all plants.The use of metal kills the lifeforce in plants for some reason.When digging,find plants who are as wide as the width of your two first fingers put together...no smaller!..and dig one foot around the plant.Scoop out the roots without damaging any and you shall have a plant filled with power.It is first best to ask of the plant and tell them what you are to do.Our ancestors would give blood to the plants used (from their own fingers) but a gift of anything worthy is acceptable.Treat all growing things with incredible respect..they are helping you to live and thrive...honour this.

A WEE BIT OF FAERY SPELLS. Roundrock spell. on a midsummers day or any beautiful day..preferably in the tween times...offer up a goodie to the fae folk..tell them..this is for the good folk ..this is for the goodfolk...repeat it as you place it outside somewhere.The goodfolk love honey,barley,and sweet ginger.The next morning go for a gentle walk and be open to any treasure that comes your way..if you are lucky you will find a round stone with stripey lines through it..this stone will hold you captivated.When you prepare to sleep..put it under your pillow and you will dream of the good folk and will be imparted with a bit of their wisdom.Any witch spell requiring middle earth help can be asked of the good folk...as long as you realize that they all have different personalities and work to do.Perhaps they will help...never expect or assume.I will update this info as I go along.I am trying to do this with no help from other books as it can become tiresome to read the same info ..over and over.Another Fae theory Hope this helps you on your way..and if you are from British Columbia, Canada and would like to find a way to hook up with otherkin in this area then go to Onelist and sign up to my list bcfaeries. Des'tai! 1
