The Celtic Fairies

Part 1X

So it came to pass that the Everlasting Task was achieved and the Master Plan was a success.

Your ancestors a long time ago were many races, they went through troubled times but they surmounted all odds and integrated into what were known as the tall people.

A man who married a Fairy woman was looked upon with envy and a Fairy man had the pick of all the women short and tall. For the Fairy people and the Tall people who became part of the people of this island are the most pleasant, fair and hard working people of all.

But the Fairies never lost their powers, in spite of how tall they got, which is why even today some people can do things which others cannot.

They cannot teach you how to do these things, it is just something they are able to do. For they have the blood of their ancestors the Celtic Fairies running through their veins.

There are early stories in our legends of the Everlasting Task and the Master Plan being put into force. Many tales carry down of Fairy children being put into the cots of unsuspecting mothers in Wales.

We have a special name for a Fairy child which has been swapped, the baby is called a ‘crimbil’. But the Fairy child always grew up loved and the tall child was nurtured and loved in Annwm until they all came up into the light. They all grew beautiful and fair to the joy of the tall people and the small people.

Legend still survives today of how the gorse bush will keep out the Bwbach and  will also protect new born babies from being stolen and taken into the fairy kingdom,the Underworld or Annwm as we call it in Wales.

Many people saw the Elves of the Blue Petticoats running through the night with little bundles under their arms. But it became known that a fairy child would bring prosperity to the home; so those who, initially were afraid of their child being taken by the Fairies, soon came to accept that their child would be looked after well and that their Fairy child would always be with them and would not disappear, as long as they loved them.

So the Everlasting Task and the Master Plan worked and we are living proof today that it did.

Just remember the Gwrach y Rhyben, the Welsh Witches, who were not too sure about the Master Plan. Perhaps some of them did not set the seal on the Master Plan in their blood and still dwell underneath your feet. Who knows?

But next time your room is in a mess please try and make your mother see that there could be another explanation, once upon a time there were Bwbachs here until a lot of them went to Ireland and became Leprechauns, well perhaps some of them have come back!!.

One of the earliest pioneers in the time of the Everlasting Task ,won himself a Fairy bride. On the day he wed her she told him he must never strike her. The Fairies were adamant that no harm should come to their children on the Island of Honey, even after they had grow to adulthood they made hard and fast rules regarding what was acceptable and what was not acceptable behaviour.

The bridegroom was made to swear a vow on his wedding day that he would never strike his bride with iron. Should he ever do this then she would have to return to her own people and he would never see her again.

The man loved his Fairy bride with all his heart and so  found it easy to swear the vow and they were wed.
However one day the man was chasing a young horse and his wife was helping him when he lost his temper and threw the horse’s bridle which struck her on the cheek. Before his very eyes a fairy circle opened up in the field and his wife sunk into it with her arms held out to him crying.

He ran to where the circle was and there was nothing to be seen. He lay on the ground weeping, knowing his wife was lost to him forever.

He did hear her voice after she had disappeared, in the wind and in the rustling trees begging him to look after her two beautiful children.

Always remember, when in Wales, that the Celtic Inheritance still exists today and a lot of people carry Fairy blood in their veins. You must always be wary when in the forests that you do not harm any animals, for you must think of the morphing Fairies, who knows what they will appear to you as, so always be good to them. Remember the Pwwntobi.
