Please lets devote land to nature alone.

We may need to remove massive amounts of farms, roads and buildings back to nature by regrowing meadows and forests that were there before or at least further protect the land already there.

These areas could be protected and not built upon so in time natures most powerful elements can move back in.

Fairies could still be around but i don't think the governments or state religion would accept them or consider their rights, this has to change.

@addorbleness112233 It's not fair to the Fae to say that all Irish Fae are evil. As one bad apple can spoil the whole bunch, one bad experience, or one person making up a bad experience can make the rest look bad. I agree, they should be worked with in the utmost respect and caution, but not all should be avoided. Should one decide to call upon the Faerie Realm, the Seelie Court is predisposed to do kindness. They can be tricky, but they do not act in unfounded malice, as the Unseelie Court.

@001Dixie the idea of faeries is older than semitic religion, yet people will believe in God or Angels.

So it's not that outlandish to believe in faeries.

@addorbleness112233 this is true the Sith in scotland were the same, spirit entities like the Kelpie, Each Usgie and the white woman or baobhan sith a vampire like celtic spirit were not nice Victorianised fluffly spirits. Just like in scotland sith legends the irish siedh (pronunced the same as SHEE) were not little green coated cheery folk but tricksters and things you shouldnt go near and avoid. Tailors made shoes from foxgloves my ass as this video says they were evil things.

Thank you for sharing this! My Anam Cara and I hold a Faeries workshop here in Massachusetts. So far, we haven't had a lot of interest, but those that have ventured into our ring and the knowledge we share have been grateful for it. I always appreciate more info, stories and lore. Someday, I hope to travel to Ireland and the UK (especially the Isle of Mann, if it's possible) to experience the Celtic Fae.
