Fairies - do they exist?

Disney Fairy

Do fairies exist? People today don't believe in fairies. Well... at least the way they are portrayed anyway that is.

Fairies are natures "angels". An advanced being once said that every leaf, every blade of grass etc has a fairy looking after it. They are beings of light and thus have no physical persona. They vibrate at a higher energy frequency thus we cannot see them with our naked eyes. We can only see them if our 3rd eye (governed by our forehead chakra, not ajna) is open.

Wikipedia describes fairies as human in appearance and having magical powers. It explains fairies as origins being less clear in the folklore, being variously dead, or some form of demon, or a species completely independent of humans or angels. Below is an excerpt from Wikipedia: 

Folklorists have suggested that their actual origin lies in a conquered race living in hiding, or in religious beliefs that lost currency with the advent of Christianity. These explanations are not necessarily incompatible, and they may be traceable to multiple sources. 

Much of the folklore about fairies revolves around protection from their malice, by such means as cold iron (iron is like poison to fairies, and they will not go near it) or charms or avoiding offense by shunning locations known to be theirs. In particular, folklore describes how to prevent the fairies from stealing babies and substituting changelings, and abducting older people as well. Many folktales are told of fairies, and they appear as characters in stories from medieval tales of chivalry, to Victorian fairy tales, and up to the present day in modern literature. 

Gothic Fairy

In his manuscript, The Secret Commonwealth of Elves, Fauns and Fairies, Reverend Robert Kirk, minister of the Parish of Aberfoyle, Stirling, Scotland, wrote in 1691:  

"These Siths or Fairies they call Sleagh Maith or the Good People...are said to be of middle nature between Man and Angel, as were Daemons thought to be of old; of intelligent fluidous Spirits, and light changeable bodies (lyke those called Astral) somewhat of the nature of a condensed cloud, and best seen in twilight. These bodies be so pliable through the sublety of Spirits that agitate them, that they can make them appear or disappear at pleasure." 

Although in modern culture they are often depicted as young, sometimes winged, humanoids of small stature, they originally were depicted quite differently: tall, radiant, angelic beings or short, wizened trolls being two of the commonly mentioned forms. Diminutive fairies of one kind or another have been recorded for centuries, but occur alongside the human-sized beings; these have been depicted as ranging in size from very tiny up to the size of a human child. Even with these small fairies, however, their small size may be magically assumed rather than constant. 

Fairy Hoax

Wings, while common in Victorian and later artwork of fairies, are very rare in the folklore; even very small fairies flew with magic, sometimes flying on ragwort stems or the backs of birds. Nowadays, fairies are often depicted with ordinary insect or butterfly wings. 

In some folklore fairies have green eyes and often bite. Though they can confuse one with their words, fairies cannot lie. They hate being told 'thank you', as they see it as a sign of one forgetting the good deed done, and, instead, want something that will guarantee remembrance.

In 2007, Dan Baine, an illusion designer for magicians from Londo posted images of a mummified dead fairy on his website, claiming it was found in Derbyshire. His webiste recorded 20,000 hits in one day. Then on 1 April, he appended a note "Even if you believe in fairies as I personally do, there will always have been an element of doubt in your mind that would suggest the remains are a hoax. However the magic created by the possibility of the fairy being real is something you will remember for the rest of your life". 


For esoteric practitioners, fairies are, however different. They cannot be seen with the naked eye. Only someone whose third eye is open can see them. And even if opened, it has to be opened to a higher degree in order for the sights to have some form otherwise it would just be a blob of energy flying around. In healing work, we do call on certain healing fairies also. However, my personal experience is that healing angels work better for me. But this is not necessarily true for all healers as it depends on the healer affinity.
