- Not to be creepy 🤣 But I wanted to give a warning before we got into this series. The fair folk can be very different from us and we have to be cautious and well informed!

They don't sound like beings I want to associate with but I'm very interested in learning about them nonetheless.
Same lol
same i am sooo scared of them lol
Ikr but apparently when I became interested and wanted to learn more about them. It turns out they wanted to learn about me too. They follow me wherever I go now even in the bathroom.
Its not a hostile thing (because I'd probably already be dead) but it is unnerving because I cant perceive or interact with them without great effort on my part (evps, emfs, the works).
@@theredblurb132 wait what. i cant stop thinking ab them are they gonna come to me? do i have to leave them gifts? help me what do i do, im so panicked lol.
karens hotdog you can look it up but be respectful to them and you can leave them gifts like old jewlery
I saw a faery when I was 15 (20 years ago). I was visiting my godfather who lived in the woods of Northern California, and I was sitting on his porch at night sipping tea. Suddenly, a winged creature appeared in front of me. It looked like a giant dragonfly with humanistic features (legs, arms, head, breasts). The creature floated in front of me and then disappeared.
I was sort of in shock, not sure what I saw, but I slowly got up walked into the house and must have looked white as a ghost. My godfather took one look at me and said, "What did you see?" I described what I just saw, and without missing a beat, he said, "Oh, that's just a wood sprite. I see them all the time."
There were also colourful lights that speckled the wooded hills in front of his house. These were no fireflies or anything like that. He said that it was the faeries that live in the hills.
I'm a Witch, and also somewhat of an atheist (sort of), but one thing I'll always believe in is the Fae.
Ohhhhh, thank you so much for this!! What an amazing experience 💕
I believe you
beautiful story, ty for sharing )0(
I love how your grandma is just like “oh you know just a normal wood Spirit nothing to out of the ordinary”
Niamh-Creates that is beautiful
I kind of grew up always being obsessed with fairies, and I think the scariest experience was almost being taken to the fairy realm? Apparently my dad had a dream that the fairies wanted to take me back to the fairy realm and they were calling my name and telling me to come with them. He woke up like immediately and went to check on me. I was apparently sleeping pretty peacefully, but when he tried to wake me up I wouldn't budge, and I'm a really light sleeper. So he went to get my Nana, and they both started trying to shake me awake. The whole thing was pretty scary and feels like a fever dream honestly. I just remember him telling me over and over to stay and not go with them.
Awww that's sounds loving but sad do your family believe in fairies?
Amazing thanks for sharing!
I'm Sarah Tonin what is the fairy realm?
i wasted my name change where the fae roam, another dimension
@@auzzie671 hey, I understand your comment is a few months old, but I’m going to answer you question. The Fae realm, is a realm parallel to ours, they co-exist with us. They are on the same frequency we are on. But they have the ability to appear to us as anytime they feel as necessary. They get their powers and abilities from nature. Nature is magickal naturally. Hence Nature spirits. One notable Fae is Bigfoot, we often see him or hear him, yet no one can find him when they go looking. Believe it or not, he is a Fae creature. Fae creatures exist all throughout medieval times and in all cultures in mythology all around the world. Norse Mythology and Greek Mythology are most notable.
When I was a child, I would go to a giant tree near my home, I grew up in the meadows, surrounded by woods. I would leave sugar cubes and lilacs for them, and I would build them little pathways and give them small gifts, I would take my moms earrings and leave them for the faeries because they were so sparkly and beautiful. I kept a journal of what I left them. I still have it. It’s the cutest most pure thing. But I went back, and on multiple occasions they left me something. One time they left me tiny pieces of a broken glass tea cup, and it was layed out in a straight line. It scared me and made me feel strange because it affirmed my hopes and dreams. I left them more sugar and lilacs, and then the next day, I returned to find the tiniest bones I have ever seen, they were not connected in any way, they were in a small pile. Real bones. But so small. I showed my mom and she thought it was very odd, but laughed it off as mouse bones probably. To this day I know that I exchanged things with whatever lived in that tree.
You're never supposed to accept gifts of offerings from them..its fine to leave them for them but not accept anything back
@@sterlingenterprises4740 why is that?
@@sterlingenterprises4740 I always hear that but I still dont know why, do you know?
@@aleah697 supposedly you could accidently sign a contract that could last generations of you don't know what you're doing. Not completely sure though.
@@Nyayato yes it binds you into a contract with them just like you shouldn't thank them ever either
i'm a little concerned as i am starting to practice witchcraft, but i have only dipped my toe in and i'm very new- but as a child i built faery houses and gave them little gifts because i didn't know any better and was very little. oh dear
😂 just be mindful...
Same as any people..
The childish intent makes it OK.
Me too I too have bein missing things like I need for the craft, I always think I see things as the corner of my eyes....
same, i just started practicing. my friend told me to NEVER interact with the fae.
sydney noel nothing wrong with that :)
When I was a child...I use to see these sparking lights around me every now and then...my parents told me they were angels...could it have been fae?
Yes
@Stuck With This Username For 90 Days I know the difference lol
Maybe? As a child I would see things out of the corner of my eye and hear things calling my name
@@roselucero1245 those are definitely signs that fairies live around you and perhaps got an interest in you, wonderful beings they are
Yes they are.
I met one recently, she was mostly green, flowers growing around her head. She told me I’m the first being to have ever seen her. She spoke a completely different language but I knew what’s she was saying. Weird.. but like she was really interesting. She had to be 6 feet tall.
Walking beacon of light 6ft umm
How did u know what she was saying if she didn't speak English? Is it like in a dream how ppl don't need to say something, but you know exactly what's happening??
are they really that tall? 😳
@@SunhiMoon pretty sure that's what he meant
@@surejan9320 I think their natural form is tiny but they can change it depending on who they are interacting with. I've had one come to me in the form of a deer
I use to have an obsession with fairies when I was about 7-10 years old. I remember leaving an object out in my closet, so one could come inside and take it as a gift. I also remember something along the lines of "Fairy this is a gift for you, I'll leave it here for you to take". About a week later, it was gone. I kind of freaked out and hoped it just fell or got thrown away.
That's so cute!
I was chosen by the Faeries and became aware of them about a year ago and once I became aware of their presence I then began learning more about them. You are so correct when warning people to be educated on setting an intentions to bring Faeries into their home. I do a lot of spiritual and energy work and had to learn how to manage the tricksters and work with those that are here to help me with my higher purpose. I am glad you were able to heal from the traumatic nightmares in your childhood and turn them into something you could embrace and live with. Thank you for your authentic sharing 🧚🏻♀️💐🧚🏻♂️🌺🧚🏿🥀🧚🏻♀️🌷🌸🧚🏿🌻🧚🏻♂️🌼🧚🏿🍄🧚🏻♀️
I appreciate that! I love hearing about people's journey with the fae 💕
When I was 12 I had a HUGE fairy obsession but... I was never scared of them. I guess I just wanted to be their friend because I was a naive little idiot. But they were always really nice. I kinda felt their presence sometimes because I suddenly smelled flowers, even tho there weren't any flowers. I also think I saw a fairy one day on my way to the bus stop. It happened while I was kinda lost in my thoughts and zoning out and suddenly a "ball of light" just flew by. It made me really happy because I never thought they would show themselves to me. I felt really honored.
(I'm really scared that people I know in real life will find this comment and make fun of me. ;-; But I wanted to share my experience since a lot of people in the comments seemed to have really bad experiences with fairy's.)
Disbelieving is the real crime 🧞♂️🧜🏻♀️🧚🏾♂️🧙🏻♀️🧝🏻♀️🦄✨🌈 👻
I always believed in fairies as well and always thought they were real and wanted one to be with me at all times i used to get picked on alot for believing in stuff like that it made me stop believing cause i was getting teased but i miss that connection with that realm of lovely creatures im slowly gaining my fairh & belief back Any advice on what to do ?
Sometimes I smell flowers when there aren't any too
If someone ya know sees this they are probably also interested in it and won’t judge
I read somewhere: "the last thing you want to owe a fairy is a favor" like damnnnnnnnnn that's just enough for me to hear
My daughter used to see faeries at 10 yrs old. They would tell her stuff that was going on in our adult world that she did not understand. I used to see elves amongst the flower wallpaper in my room when under 10. I ran into my parents room many times…lol
I’m definitely not interested in working with the fae, but I am still interested in learning about them, they’re still super interesting lol so I’ll be watching the videos you post about them 😊😊
Out of that whole story what got me was the opened arm dad to the rescue. Oh my little black heart was touched.
Dads being awesome! Right?
@@patriciaroysdon9540 yeah. Even Marilyn Manson had an amazing and supportive dad.
I know, it kind of sounds like I'm making fun, but I'm not. Having a great parent or two is pretty awesome.
@@neophytebokor7164 Agreed!
As a child I had a recurring dream where there was this object that I would pick up and then these people would say "you stole something of ours and now we get to steal your skin" another dream I had was where I would be walking in this snowy landscape and I would see this cottage. I would walk in and their would be potion bottles and textiles and just magical things. I would look out a window and the moon would look at me and smile. So yeah...weird.
This sounds like a faery prank to be honest.
I agree with you though. This is horrifying.
And I'm really sorry that you had that experience. 💖😘
@@RosmertaOfficial thanks yeah I had weird experiences my whole life. They like to mess with me for some reason.
@@roselucero1245 maybe you accidentally stepped into a fairy circle or something or messed with a fairy home? im not sure!! im still researching
@@guppy6245 oh my God ! That was funny ! But now that you mentioned,their homes are small and easy to disguise ! Lol
This reminds me of Spirited Away
I don’t know what I’m working with but this really resonates
I just ask the higher powers to help me keep my end of the bargain
Omg I remember spirited away ❤️😄
I love that anime
That’s my favourite anime
These are demons sadly, and they don't bother me anymore. Seriously, all the evidence points toward them being demons, offspring of humans and fallen angels. The ones that manifest physically are fallen angels most likely. If you want more info you can ask me
@@sarahs8371 and wtf are the things I see on dmt, for examples the purple blue lady, or clockwork elves, or nbome fairy little looking things what ever you WAna call them, or what about that crazy ass geometrical looking thing that talks ?
The one time I met a fae, I had my sage stolen while I was cleansing my area. I left my abalony shell in the window and I looked away for seconds; the sage disappeared from the shell. It was still a pretty good size, left to burn completely so I laughed and thought, "fairies.... thieving, mofos lol"
so i feel this is a safe place to come out with a secret of my mom and i!! we both saw a unicorn in kauai, hawaii.. we’ve lived here for 11 years. it happened the first year we lived here and i was 6 she was 27. she swears by it too man, and it sounds so crazy! but its true💚
how can someone see a unicorn? i want to be able to do so, is there any offerings your supposed to set out for them? or do they just choose who to show themselves to?
Tell us more... I've wanted to commune with unicorns for ages.
lately i keep getting signs about unicorns
please let us know more
@@kaylacarvalho well the thing is i was an innocent, pure child with no knowledge of it being a "mythical" creature. and also as a child i believe my crazy imagination led me to opening my third eye fully. but i havent seen one since. they do however choose to show themselves to you:) i dont know everything about it but i know what i saw ahahaha. i dont know how my mom saw it, she was an adult but it was probably so i would believe it was real forever, from conformation of someone else seeing it.
I looked for them everywhere for a very long time as a child. After having never found them, disappointed, I grew up and stopped looking. Still, I have felt this powerful draw to unicorns my whole life and they continue to be a theme for me to this day. Just yesterday I was thinking how I wanted to make my new living space decked out with fairy and unicorn vibes. As a student of the universe, it has come to my understanding that the universe is our thoughts. Therefore, basically if you can think it, it can and does exist. As of late that has been my view of unicorns, that they are real, but perhaps buried very deeply in the dark recesses of some dimension and for the most part are, unobtainable, in terms of experiences. Yet the popularity of the tales of them from long ago possibly suggest otherwise, that they were still visiting us in the not-so-distant past. You are the first person I have ever heard claim to have seen one. Whether true or false, you have stirred a beautiful memory awake of myself as a child. I remember what it feels like to be more "myself" as I believe you are closer to your true self as a child. So I thank you for that. As for Kauai, I have a link to that, though not a physical one. There was a little song I heard in a commercial as a young adult that stuck with me through my life. I enjoyed it so much I even looked it up. I am older so back then this was a bit more of an effort. The chorus mentions Kauai. I've never been there, but vacationed in Maui many years ago. Anyway, I was wondering if you or your mother could describe your encounter of what you remember in any detail? I know you were young. What kind of setting was it? What time of day roughly? Were there other people around? What was it doing? How did it look, behave? What color was it? What did the horn look like? Did it have wings? Did it look at you? How did it make you feel or think? Did it have a tail like a horse or like a lion as it is sometimes depicted? How long did the encounter last and how did it end? Sorry so many questions, but it is infinitely interesting to me.
Every since I was a little child I was always attracted to nature. I’ve spent majority of my life living close to the beaches and the woods! My parents live in Sweden, and our house there is surrounded by beautiful apple treats, and the path from our backyard leads to the woods that I would often walk and spend time into, for hours! I can’t really put a finger on what it is, but Its something about being alone in the nature, surrounded purity and the big old trees that makes my heart dance! I haven’t really hand an encounter with a Fae in my life ( Atleast none that I am aware of) but I whole heartedly believe in their existence. I know we aren’t alone and there’s way more to this little planet than what meets the eye. There are definitely other dimensions out there and I love gaining knowing and doing research about them; especially the Elemental/Fae Realm. Thank you for these delightful videos!
One thing I’d like to add:
Scandinavian Fae/Folklore does show that just like humans, the Fae/nature spirits CAN be dangerous! They are powerful beings and do not think the same way as we humans do. What might seem like a petty thing to us might be something really serious for them so be careful. There are different types of Fae/Nature spirits, some that like humans, and some that don’t. ( they see us as destructive beings) and many of them are very mischievous and love playing tricks on humans and many can go as far as kidnapping humans. Many people today believe and see Fae Folk as sweet and friendly and full of whimsy. But it isn’t really all that sweet.
I know, it’s easy to get confused with all these supernatural creatures with wings who insist on fluttering about on the edges of our existence. But it’s important to understand the differences. The Fae/nature spirits ARE NOT Angels.
Angels believe in people and even protect them. Fairies, not so much.
So be careful if you encounter them and never EVER try to work with them unless they specifically ask you to.
Some more things I’d like to add, based on my knowledge of Swedish/Scandinavian Folklore:
NEVER ( I can’t stress this enough!) Never eat anything they give you, it could be a trick and might end up being something sinister.
NEVER give them your real name. Names hold power. If a faerie asks for your name and you say it, you’re giving them power (and possibly complete control) over you.
NEVER step into a Faery ring. Faery rings are the rings of mushrooms that sometimes grow where a tree has died, and they’re also portals to the Faerie realm. So standing in them is a rather stupid idea. Even if you’re not teleported, you could get stuck in the ring, and time moves much slower in there. Centuries could pass outside, while seconds pass inside.
And if you are transported to the Faerie realm, you could be treated as their guest, or you could become their prisoner. Which isn’t great.
NEVER be rude to a faerie.
Being unhospitable and selfish are frowned upon among the Fae. It is critical to meet their standards.
If they give you something, YOU HAVE to give them something back in return and vice verse. Give and take. That’s how it works with them.
NEVER say “ Thank You” to the Fae/nature spirits.It’s not the words.. per say… but what the words imply.
As I said earlier, they DO NOT think like we humans do.
Thanking, is the payment of a dept to someone.
Once you’ve paid someone a dept, there is no longer a connection or binding tie between you two.
To them, it’s literally like closing a door on whatever deed or graciousness is being endowed. Once you say, ‘thank you’, you are alleviated of your debt or graciousness, because you said those words. It’s final. It’s like a slap in the face.
Now they Fae DO want your appreciation if they do something nice for you or help you out in any way. The best way to show them your appreciation is by saying things like “ I am appreciative” “ I appreciate it” or “ I’m gracious”.
Those words are active words, not closing. They take place in the current, and therefore, mean they are still active with you going forward. I am appreciative, isn’t closing or final. That can go on forever. You’re not saying, “I was appreciative.’ That’s kind of how a ‘thank you’ feels. It leaves it done. It’s means your no longer appreciative after you’ve said those words.
Again, with the Fae, it’s all about wordage. That’s why it’s said they are masters at words, and why you should be very wary in making deals. But that’s another story. 😊
Again, thank you for these videos and If you made it to the end of my comment, REMEMBER: PLEASE be careful and respectful when you dabble with them and their world. ~ Tiff 🕊🌸🌿✨
When I was young I associated with the Faye a lot, I would make houses for them and put offerings in the houses because I simply loved what they were, I made a lot of the mistakes and said thank you a lot but they never did anything bad to me, I never had bad luck or got cursed... They would always leave me gifts like small flowers, but I never took them for myself I only put them in the houses I made for them, I'd give them offerings like sliver coins and gold coins and I would make furniture for them. How come I am not cursed or have bad luck?
Some of the Faye creatures I saw were very nice to me, one of them was so fast but looked a bit scary not exactly how I'd imagine them but she was coloured like dirt.
it may be because you were just a child and never knew what you were doing, from what I heard the fae only forgive children when they do this stuff
How young were u tho
@@sherry2807 5 or 6
Not all faeries are bad or want to harm you, some of them are actually very nice & friendly. You were respecting towards them & you started to leave them little things instead of receiving a gift from them first or asking for a favor. If they weren’t okay with you interacting with them, they probably would’ve ignored the offerings.
When I was 11, I just moved to a new house and I was looking trough the window at a tree in the garden when I saw about 4-5 balls of light, floating around the tree. I could see that they had wings and human-like features, so I don’t think they were fireflies or something else. It was honestly the best day of my life :)
Wow how cool what color was the lights was they all the same or different thanks.
I asked the fae if they could help me save a hurt bug and I gave them offerings. They took some of the offerings but left some (I guess they didn’t like some of them.) and I found a dried up puffball mushroom that was very out of place today and I think it was from them. But I’m not ready to work with the fae or invite them into my home. Would they take me reaching out to them as an invitation into my home and my life? Or can I stop contacting them now?
From my knowledge of the Fae you’ll definitely need to tread lightly because they may see that as a sign of you willing to work with them. If you don’t wish to work with them you might want to leave an apology somehow
@PlumRose Dharma How exactly do you let them into your home? Sorry if this sounds like a dumb question hehe, I just want to make sure of every details before I start working with the Fea, so I don't want to unconsciously invite them in before I am ready!
@PlumRose Dharma Ohh I see! Thank you for the reply! This was extremely helpful! I had no idea some could be attracted by singing or even books! I will look in more into what attracts different fae, thank you~♡
@PlumRose Dharma Thank you so much! I'll definitely check were I can find it♡
dude your dream reminds me of a dream i would have almost every night for years !!! similar situation but instead of a mall, it was my mom and i in a little woodsy village and we'd walk around and it would feel warm and nice and then SUDDENLY IT WOULD GET DARK and all the townspeople would run and hide and lock up and my mom would disappear and then these weird creatures would come out of caves and the shadows and i'd wake up shaking and all the shadows in my room would start shape-shifting. it only stopped when i had the courage to climb on top of a cottage in the dream and yell "hey! if you want to come out, you have to be nice!" and i haven't had the dream since
lex I had the same kind of dream!! I was outside in a treehouse reading books at my apartments. Suddenly everyone ran inside and it got super dark. I was 6 years old and I will NEVER forget how that dream made me feel.
The ghost parade thing sounds like the main character of "the ancient magus bride"
Omg I love that show 😭
Reminds me of "Spirited Away".
I feel like I unconsciously invited some in my home, I've accepted that they are here lol. It seems like when I'm in denial or dismissive to them they get a little aggressive and mischievous lol.
So far I've asked them only to stay with me if the resonate or leave if they want.
But I am alpha an have authority over my space too so it's a relationship I'm comfortable with 🧚🏾♀️💖💕
My mum warded them all out once.
Be aware I was a very creepy child....
As soon as all the fae left the house, i immediately got very ill...
And my dad nearly died.
They were actually protecting the house.
It's not always so clear cut.
Yes!! Such good advice, I’m really excited about this series! Your dreams sounds super scary, I love that you turned it into something empowering!
I definitely did!! It was life changing to say the least 🤣
Your hair is so pretty 💙
I know right!?
I want to dye my hair half pink half blue like her hair colors 😄
@@yuriayato5667 Go for it!
@@diabetonugget6596 I sure will😎
The whole style is major dope!
Oh that still shot is sooooo cute 🤣🤣🤣
Yup..it is 😀
What is your Instagram?
Right? Can we get the makeup tips?
I have a question if you dont mind answering
Your dream sounds like being in the spirited away anime. First you are so scared and then you become like one of them. I have heard the fae are shape shifters and so can change their appearence. Perhaps they show you a glittery picture of like a tinkerbelle but in realtity their looks are very different. I did not have bad experience with them. My plants are growing like crazy evertime I feel connected with them. You say this connection is forever but I lost track for a couple of years! Now I want to reconnect! One day I was walking in the woods alone and want them to give me a sign. I heard laughter and after that, I smell like incense. It was a really nice smell like an incense stick was burned in front of me. Another sign is; I see big dragonflies everywhere like in the middle of the street.
Nana Sprinkles I am not a witch and have just recently got into the topic of the fae but if you get a closer look at the dragonflies it could possibly be faeries! I’ve heard a lot of people say they look like dragon flies from a distance.
The Ancient Magus Bride kinda helps shine a light on the dark side of Fae folk.
I'm deff gonna watch that anime.
omg as a child, I was obsessed with faeries. I use to leave honey and milk out for them at random times. I didn’t really understand what I was doing. Oh no.
I'm SO glad you addressed this!! I love them but I've never felt led to work with them because I'm in no way ready to. I have much much respect for the ancient spirits. Love your vibes!!✨🦋✨
Yessss!! Its so important to me that people know what they're getting into 👌🏽💕
when I was little , my grammas garden had fae, and I would always sit outside and read among them and help in the garden. That was my first experience with fae.
over the years, I can always get a sense when fae are nearby, pink peonies always grow near me when fae are close. Its just always been this way.
and its funny that you say cats and fae are super close, I didn't think anything of it, but the fae that come visit LOOOOVE playing with my cat. Now when she gets in this super weird mood, my boyfriend and I just assume, well, the fae are back to play lol
I feel grateful that I haven't had any negative experience with fae. but they definitely are more than just sparkle and cutesy light beings.
I normally may see them as glimmers or sometimes as shadows.
I'd love to work with them but feel I should respectfully decline because, it is a commitment. and I'm thnakful to have their energy around to visit throughout my lifetime but I know how fae can be and its too tricky for me lol
I always found that Brian Froud's old book "Faeries" was the most accurate in how they look.
I AGREE!!! Very good book. I've always loved Froud's depictions.
Really?
@@tyaler9805 yeahhhh... many of them are visually strange looking.....
Yes.
man, that's scary
When I was a kid when I laid in bed in the dark and I held my eyes open I would see neon pink confetti falling down all around me and it looked so real I would try to grab it. I’ve also been told I was queen of the fairies in a past life. It never occurred to me that that might be a fairy thing. Thoughts?
I used to see the same things & never knew what they were or what I was even seeing at the time. Wow !!
Queen_Akasha Blissful it’s cool to know someone else saw what I saw! Any thoughts on what it was?
@@CosmicConversations777 this seems suuuper familiar!? Kind of comforting too... i feel like i definitely experienced the same thing...
Brittany Baby thank you for the confirmation!
Woah!! I experienced the same thing. I’ve honestly never heard known anyone else with that experience. Haven’t been able to replicate it as an adult though. 🥺
When I was little I would make fairy houses in the woods behind my house. I’d use things like acorns leaves, sticks, bark, rocks and flowers. It felt so magical and I’m really sad that I’ve lost that feeling after “growing up”. Your channel brings back those wonderful feelings 🧡 thank you!
I had a dream a few nights ago , I was in a metaphysical store looking at card decks and candles etc and a lady came up to me and said that the fairies would really like to talk to you they want you to start communicating with them! So the next day I put an offering plate and been doing it two or three times. But now with your warnings don’t know if I should continue.... even though I was told in my dreams I should start talking to them ?! I’m just a beginner and I’d love to know your advice :)
So happy you made this video!!
C’est Bon Bon did videos about them :) there’s more but don’t think of them as “good” or “bad”
Some of the seelie can be snooty,
Some of the unseelie can be downright nasty.
Same as human beings.
You wouldn't stop talking to all humans because some of them might be bad would you?
If faeries reached out to you, they should be friendly as long as you aren’t rude or disrespectful.
I am very interested in this series! I started researching the Fae a few months ago, after a friend recommended the Iron Fey novels to me. I realized that I knew those names already, and much of what the author described about them was similar to many other books I've read. So, I wanted to know where the first mention of the Fae was - it's in our literature all the way back to Shakespeare, at least. This train of thought had me wondering if it was possible they were real - just hidden and explained away as fairytales and overactive imaginations. I soon found your channel, among others. I've since fallen in deep, researching the paranormal, started practicing witchcraft, and I can't wait to learn more. I'm sure not ready to follow a Faery path, but I respect them and those that do.
All this research and reading jogged my memory, and I now wonder if some of the experiences I had as a child involved the Fae. This is where this comment gets long, sorry in advance. My childhood best friend was a very unique individual; she was often bullied for it. She was incredibly talented - she could sing, play piano by ear, draw, paint, sculpt, and act masterfully from a young age. She was an only child whose parents were also unique -- very worldy, museum go-er types that did not seem compatible with one another. They did not fit into our small, rural Midwest town, yet there they were.
My friend and I loved to explore the wooded area near her house. We were often chastised for coming home dirty and late. I still know where that area is today, and what I remember seeing in there as a kid, just doesn't add up to what should have been there. It was much warmer, almost steamy, far more tropical than the Upper Midwest is. It was very boggy, with quicksand-like sinkholes. Plants grew there that wouldn't survive Minnesota climate. No woods around here that I have hiked as an adult are like that. At some point in our adventures, we came upon paths cut deep into these earthen mounds, like a maze criss-crossing through the area with small, wooden bridges over the tiny streams there too. I can't explain it. I doubt anyone else went down there - we never saw anyone or any animals either.
We began to realize this place was not normal. When we couldn't go there, we would sit and think up theories as to why it was the way that it was. Maybe it was geothermal? Maybe we accidentally stepped through a time-rift into a Jurassic-era past? Or maybe we crossed into the Nevernever? This last one didn't actually come up between us then because we were more into science and science fiction than fantasy at the time, but I sure do wonder that now. Time seemed to be different there too - as I said, we were always late, even though, we'd be watching the time and intend not to be. I remember once that we hiked for hours, passing beyond the point of the mounds, through an extremely weird boggy field of things that kind of looked like rhubarb, and had to climb up a nearly vertical hillside to get to the road. Once we emerged, we realized we were not that far from our entry point, and walked back to it and past it to get home in a short time - definitely not the 3 or 4 hours our journey had taken. It was disorienting.
In conclusion, I believe my friend and her family may have been Fae, part-Fae, or Fae-touched and trying to hide in the human society of our quiet town. At one point, I swear to you, I caught her eyes glowing a lilac color. She explained this away to me as the new colored-contacts her mom had bought for her. At the time, I believed it and would request she "do the eye thing" (open them extra wide real fast so they seemed to flash), which she always did for me. Today, I'm not so sure I didn't catch something I shouldn't have seen.
Sadly, she died of cancer when we were twenty. I'll never be able to ask her or reminisce or even check if my mind hasn't warped my own memories of the place. Perhaps Leanansidhe was involved in her talented but brief life?
Thanks for listening!
^_^
wow i’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your friend, RIP to her💕💕 lovely story tho!!!
Julie Kagawa is the NICEST woman, we were pen pals!
If you liked her books honestly let her know, I can find her email address if you want it
I think i saw the same world you saw. Me and my brother when we were younger, would go to the woods all the time and it always seemed like another world. Our mom would say we would be gone for hours or we would be gone for only half an hour and act as if we were playing all day. Super tired. I was OBSESSED with fairies when I was little too. I would leave candies and drawings for them in the woods and the next day they would always be gone. (Looking back now maybe I shouldn’t have done that 😅).
wow.
I never thought I'd had an encounter with them before until you started describing your night terrors as a child and I still have goosebumps right now typing this because I totally did not remember this until now. But then again I have a lifetime of trauma that's dulled my senses and vision but I'm trying to find my spirituality again!
Mint seems like such a wonderful and fun person to be around. Wish I could get their help with styling myself because that aesthetic in their look is iconic
Oh thank you so much!
this is a little off topic but i adore your laugh , it’s so warm and happy 🤍
oh my gaaaahwd your dream sounds like what strange town from spirited away looks like as soon as the sun sets 😱🙊 no wonder you love studio ghibli so much ☺
This reminded me of Spirited Away. A whole world of their own and you wandered in :) I used to have reoccurring tea parties in my dreams with monsters but I never felt worried. However, when I was five, I tried to take my brother with me to their house and we walked out the front door to go to the “haunted house” they lived in. Our neighbor caught us before we got far, but I had a vivid memory of this listening to your story. Added edit: I was thinking about it and maybe a great connection is Kami. In a lot of Japanese lore, Kami are more like the Fae you described; not good or evil, angels, demons, and gods with a morality of their own.
I was introduced to fae from a young age. I have always been connected with them and nature. Once I left some flowers on a fence, next day I came back they left feathers in return and they continued to leave feathers poked into the fences nature place I went. Sometimes little objects left in the bush were also pinned to the fences. When I first dating my partner on a walk with him, they left heaps of feathers and things in the fence literally after I was talking about my experiences to him and he freaked out a bit 😂
I can’t help but to think of MIB when you talk about your first experience and how you over came it. When WIll Smith is supposed to get “the bad guys” as a part of his assessment, but instead spots the girl holding physics books. Lol that’s my favorite part of the movie and I can relate to your story. ❤️
I can't help but say thank you for letting us know that 'thank you' are empty words to the fae. I am a serial thankyouist, so this is invaluable info. Makes me think about how I overuse phrases and words on autopilot every day. This is a world I stepped into as a child, and then I forgot about it, and now that I'm being reminded of it I feel a responsibility to learn the etiquette and be as respectful to these beings as I know how. I also gotta say that I loved your story about the ghost parade and how you eventually joined them and became the leader! Way to alchemize your fear into gold!
Oh I love this. Absolutely do NOT assume that they're cute and small! The first fae iI saw was a puca. It appeared as a giant, rotting wolf's head outside my window with glowing eyes and flesh falling off the bones. It was terrifying. Since then I've seen more and yeah there's a few that are cute, but you also get quite ugly or even scary ones. But just because they're ugly or scary doesn't necessarily mean they're bad to work with. I often work with ballybogs, who are earth and bog spirits. You've got to be careful of them as with all fae (some people speculate the Peat Man mummy found in the UK was a sacrifice to the ballybogs so they're not always harmless), but they're guardians of the Earth and have their place in the ecosystem :)
I’m a non-theistic satanist so while I don’t believe in fairies this is very intriguing. I had no idea this was a thing, let alone there is a whole community aware of these creatures. I’m obviously skeptical but that’s so crazy all of you have experienced this
Thank you so much for sharing this. I picked that up when I decided to work with the Orisha’s and decided to work with angels instead. I still realize I must be careful and listen to wisdom.
❤❤❤❤❤
What was your experience with the Orisha's if I may ask kindly?
Dark Light... long story short, I asked God to reveal my angels and the Orisha’s came first. I went in with already warned not to worship or give them offerings outside of self. I was instructed by lady wisdom and Orunmila to acknowledge their energy that is self and not outside of their energy that is me. Let’s just say, I got caught up after researching them and the religion and started praying to them and acknowledging their energy outside of self because of the testimony of others. From alters to very small offerings. Everyone’s purpose and position with the divine is not the same and before going in we must heed guidance from our higher self for our own greater good and the greater good of the universe. We are light and dark energy and so is the energy of our ancestors and deities. Light and dark (duality) (yin and yang) I learned by me giving offerings to the deities I end up working with a whole set of dark energy rules I know nothing about. It is not my heritage. The Angels are Gods light energy that works with God’s dark energy to manifest ch, ki and Prana. My purpose was to be guided by My Angels. And by working with them, no offerings are given. They have already been given charge over my destiny to lead and guide me into all truth. I am aware that by working with my Angelic divine army, My ancestors and deities and 🧚♀️ fairies, and spirit animals are all in sequence. I acknowledge them too but not by offerings straight to them, But by honoring and respect self , others and my submission to Divine will. The above video about the fairies was confirmation. I hope that helps. 🤷🏼♀️
@@omnikeyztheoracle7761 it does, thanks for the insight on your experience . Love and light.
Dark Light thank you and you’re welcome 😉. Yassszzz! Love and light 💡
Your ghost parade story reminds me of a story we have here in Norway! Åsgårdsreia. Also called Odin’s wild hunt, or julereia, because it happens around Christmas time. I’m very fascinated by it, and hope of witnessing it if I can get the courage.
you basically had a dream like spirited away omg
Omg! I see it
Omg I feel like I was brought to your channel for a reason, when I was a kid for a month I had weird experiences with fairies. I would go outside, pick flowers and leave them. I would leave strawberry shortcakes debbie snacks for them as well. I had a scary dream about faries, they wanted to make a contract with me so I could “become a fairy”. Something in that dream told me no, and I woke up immediately. I’m now a baby witch. :)
I just discovered your channel and oh my goodness, I can learn about the Fae! It's been a lil difficult trying to find information about them and your channel is PERFECT. Keep doin you girl!!🌷
The first Fae that visited me were very scary - I was very little, about 2, but I was equally, if not more fascinated than I was scared
i remember one night when i was 5 or 6 I couldn't sleep and went to find my mom. My mom didn't want me to go to her room saying something was there but I ended up staying anyways. After about half an hour my mom fell asleep as well but I didn't. i remember seeing lights dancing across the ceiling and I felt at peace, they were like rainbows, till this day I'm still not sure what it was.
If anyone know what it was please tell me, I haven't seen anything like that ever again.
The fae sounds like a street gang lol
i got a reading recently and asked about my spirit guides, and the first thing the psychic did was ask me if i liked fairies. i started laughing because i was obsessed with them as a kid and used to collect fairy statues. apparently one of my guides is a fairy
Awww! Thank you for all your wonderful videos. I want to learn more about African Fairies. 🤗☺💚
Love you and your energy! Thank you!
A few days ago, my grandmother visited her husband's grave
Someone put twigs on the grave, she didn't like them very much,
so she took them home to throw them away
(she could have done it right away but for some reason she took them home)
In the evening, she was woken up by voices coming from the kitchen.
where she left the twigs she took
she went to check who it was and she heard voices coming from the branches!!
The discussion was strange and incomprehensible, like two quarreling squirrels :D from a Disney cartoon
she threw the twigs out the window and the discussion ended
I wonder what it could have been?
The spirits of dead people would speak an understandable language
and if grandma had something wrong with her head and the voices were only in her head, they wouldn't stop after throwing the twigs out the window
Wow!!
I had terrifying dreams of fae too and now that I’m in my 20’s I understand about a lot of different faes and my cousin who’s around the age I was when it started to happen she had fae dreams she had some imps, goblins, and gnomes scaring her for fun and they’d be there when she woke up so I’m glad I could help her out
When I was a little kid I swear to god I saw either a faery or a shooting star or something, a fluttering golden light in the sky and it’s stuck with me to this day
Where I'm from, they are said to have butterfly wings. They live in and for the nature, so they don't tolerate trespassers and possible threats. Same goes for the ones in the rivers with fish-like features. The river ones are worse actually, if they notice that you saw them may leave you with a... warning. If you get too close they may tease you... painfully so... drag you into the water and expect you to be fine...
When the dog barked I legit opened my room and said “hello?” In that high pitched voice you do when you talk to dogs
There are these River Dwellers (I go to the American River) that always hover deep in the waters and try to scare me by always reaching at me/trying to grab my legs. They hide in the water grass and blend in really well. I never really vocalized it because other people never really reacted to them. But you mentioned Jenny Greenteeth and when I looked her up I realized that's what I was seeing 😨
When I was in high school, I keep coming across some sparkling dim lights, but when I look, they disappear. I once thought that it was a Holy spirit, but the more I thought about it, the more I began to realize that it couldn't just be one spirit.
I'm still doing research on faeries, but thanks for explaining.
Y’all i know it’s exciting to want to share your experiences in the comments but please make sure you ask the fae for permission before you share your experience!! they’re very private creatures.
It’s not just the fairies experience, are they going to be on UA-cam?
3:00 Ayo that's scary but the creatures having a good ol time at the shopping district is a cool idea
Hi! I love your energy. :) Faeries' emotional language is so different from ours, and from what I understand, they take human children to their realm (the ones they replace with changelings) and raise them for the purpose of learning our emotional language. I wonder if they were trying to take you to their realm when you had those dreams.
If you ever wonder if you have m.j made a difference..I'm here to tell you, you HAVE!! You are a top educater in my studies so I pray you stay visible to myself and these UA-cam streets !! Greatly appreciate and support you!!
Ohhhh thank you love!!! I appreciate that!
I just wanna care for the earth and rescue animals from my heart because, I love the earth and fae, I had an experience meditating I was standing in the street and I saw this guy ahead of me who looked human, than I saw this green june bug looking creature with a face land on my arm and stare at me. I woke up after realizing I had finally meditated with no thought interuptions, I think nature should be loved and any living thing should be but I will love the fae from a distance!
I used to have such bad night terrors, I literally had a fear of going to sleep. Like 3am-6am was my bed time, I had to physically pass out. I would wait for the morning light to slightly show before allowing my body to go to bed
I can't wait to see the rest of the series! Although I must admit, I'm a little terrified 🤣
Me too
I woke up to see fairies watching me .is someone sending through scrying to look in to my dreams.
All of this stuff scares the daylights outta me, yet here I am right before bed. Lol at 43 years old. 😂
You are the sweetest fairy in all internet! I love your clothes!😁 i have never encountered a fairy, but i would love to...
Such an interesting series! Can't wait to see more.. *I love taking nature pics so I upload some to facebook and facebook tries to TAG "faces" in my nature pics 😳😳😳 in the trees, branches, leaves, etc.. 1 pic looked just like a gnome when I turned it to the side*
I was visiting a tiny lake that the fae made in a forest with a friend because they wanted the water from there. They are a witch and they work with creatures from the forest and bodies of water. When I was there, we gifted two roses and I had an encounter where I saw the fae and one of them liked me and touched me I think. I felt giddy after.
omgggg i always get so excited when you post!!! Love you the most
I’ve came across a fairy but not just any fairy, It was actually a leprechaun ( a type of fairy ) and it was on saint Patrick’s day when I was very young and loved fairies (still do). The tiny leprechaun was as small as a mouse and he was not expecting me to see him, he vanished in probably less than a second.
This is an amazing video! Thank you for making it!
Yeah, I wouldn't want to invite them. Though I think I had seen something like that when I was a kid, no recurring dreams like you had, but just one early morning when I was about five or so, in the early 90's, I had to use the restroom and went to the closer one. The door was open and it was dark inside, except for four silvery pillars of mercury which were glowing as with cherenkov radiation and they kept shape-shifting forms between various faces and bodies. I didn't hear any words or thoughts of words per se, but I got this sense of the humans they were showing me were people who would later betray me. It's strange though that I didn't feel fear, I just really had to use the restroom. I closed the door to that restroom, like nope, then went downstairs to the other restroom there and went back to sleep afterward.
Whenever I've had sleep paralysis events though, I would get that feeling of dread that's usual, but with that event of shapeshifters it didn't seem to be a thing. The first sleep paralysis event I had though was seeing one of my birds walk upside down on the ceiling and turn a corner that didn't exist and disappear out of sight, and it wasn't that bird as she was in the living room eating millet with the others. Patty the cockatiel. But the thing took her form for some reason, IDK why. Since then, in 2004, I've always blindfolded myself whenever I try to sleep. But the first event for seeing paranormal stuff it wasn't sleep paralysis, it seemed quite real, and yet the four shapeshifting creatures didn't give a sense of fear to me either.
I once saw a tree bark like creature with yellow cat eyes, it was moving weirdly and I spoke with it and it told me its name is Ga, he disappeared in my closet and never came out, maybe because I told him to go? :(
I used to live in a neighborhood full of old houses, my friend used to make fairy houses and make offerings. Ofcourse I thought it was all make believe, until she used to tell me things would be moved around or placed in the houses, even now I still question it. I have a lot of questions for a lot of things I see. Have u guys ever seen an old lady who wears full cloth and covers her entire face and wanders around? What do these people do and are they associated with the fae?
No I’m not talking about Muslim women who weAr niqaabis or burkas
They left me a bone just yesterday 🤗🧚♀️ I got so excited but I kindly didn't except it. I left them some shiny items and sweet treats:) I'm glad they noticed me and I'm glad they liked their treats and such ❤🌹
FYI: I put the gifts out for them a few days ago. All yesterday I was out on my porch working on things and of course for the hour I was inside... I come back out to a tiny bone left on my doormat 😄
the little growl after you told the dog to relax lmaoo
Yay I am so excited for this series! Perfect timing for me. 😉💚
The way you look: 🔮🦋💖💜💫🧚♀️🦄
Your fae experiences: 🦇👹💀👻🕳👤
*sees dogs and ghibli* HHHHHH *subscribes*
Edit: dream reminds me of Spirited away omg
the concept of a ghost parade sounded like studio ghibli’s movie pom poko to me! and then when you said the spirits got their own little marketplace, it reminded me of the night market from spirited away!!!
Another question: if you invite the Fae into your life (no favours asked for or deals made, just interacting) is that also lifelong, or can you end that relationship?
I’d like to know the same
I love those bunny prints, BTW! As I become older (60's), I can sense them again like I did when I was young. I have only seen them rarely, but let's see where this goes.
I used to see myself being stirred in a extra large cauldron by a woman who seemed so peaceful but terrified me I was very young. This happened till I was maybe 18? Then when I was in my 30s I dreamed of a leprechaun ( fairy) he would watch me while I slept .
My first experience was with willow wisps it did scare me at first. I often hear they’re whispers mostly as I’m trying to sleep. but I don’t believe that they’re malicious at all. I believe that they are there to comfort me since I’ve had horrible insomnia since birth. I have never seen the wisps because I was always too scared to look or if I did look it stopped the second I looked. I’ve had many other experiences this was just one of the first ones I remember. One time I was sitting on the stairs and I felt a cold presence only around my feet like something cat sized was sitting there. The only time I’ve fully seen one is when I saw one run across my backyard. I only very recently became a Wiccan I’m 13 right now. But I’ve been experiencing these things for almost my whole life. I am no longer as scared of them instead I have learned that they are friendly. At least the ones I’ve come in contact with.
Can I just appreciate them without working with them like leave them offerings
Absolutely!
Right I just want to build them a cute little house and plant them stuff and water their plants and leave them little gifts but I don't really want anything in return or to work with them
Imagine a studio ghibli film being made about her night terrors and conquering them
I have a question for people who are knowledgeable of the fae:
Once When I was a very small child, I woke up abruptly in the middle of the night feeling terrified even though I did not have a nightmare. I look down at my hands as I sit up and they are being surrounded by blue balls of light that were white in the middle, I would say they were the size of a large spec of glitter(?).My hands were also being surrounded by a couple of bees , maybe 3-5 of them. No matter what i did, they would not leave my hands and I could feel these thing touching me yet they looked translucent/fuzzy/not really there. Does anyone know what this experience was? Was it a type of fae trying to contact me or something along those lines? Was it a hallucination? I’m just extremely curious ahha.
Just last summer my siblings and I made boats out of large pieces of bark and sticks and little rocks for chairs and leaves for beds for the faeries, without knowing much about them really, and set them on their way. The next time we went though there wasn’t any sign of them, not even of them getting washed up on the other ends of the lake. I personally like to think that it had something to do with the fae, though maybe not. Still, making the boats was fun!
This being said. It's not so black and white...
Seelie= good
Unseelie= bad
it's not .....
I've met some extremely genuine unseelie fae.
Thank heavens you started this! 🤩 I live in a wooded area, and I found an opening in the woods that I think the fae are at! (The land was lush, even in the cold.) I am actually relieved you made this, I didn't know until recently that saying thank you was bad. And that's bad cause I was going there before I knew that 😅 BUT, I see that alter for them and Imma check it out ♡u♡ Thank you Minty!!
