Do You believe in Faeries? They Believe in You

A quest into the spiritual realms will bring us into contact with beings that will stir and fascinate our imagination. The fairy kingdom is not exclusive to psychics. Nature spirits have an important part in the evolutionary process of mankind. Nature spirits are part of nature itself and their world is much close to us than we can imagine. Because their energy is not physical they are multidimensional and can travel in many spheres of existence, some changing their shapes and sizes. There are differing views as to their origins. Some believe that they are the last of a civilisation more ancient than humanity. Others believe that they are part of the angelic kingdom. Nature spirits have worked closely with man throughout the ages and most need contact and assistance with humans in order to live and evolve. Because of their close affinity with nature they are easily affected by mans ignorance and wilful destruction of nature and of himself. This causes them to be mistrustful of humans and many withdraw from contact with them. Not all can do this, and so suffer the consequences of mans destruction of his environment. Nature spirits inhabit a variety of habitats including woodland, trees and bushes, caves, underwater and around lakes

 

To see nature spirits you need to spend time in nature, at first you may see them as flickers of light just outside you area of vision. With a keen eye and perseverance you will eventually be able recognise them amongst the shrubs and flowers. If you can't see them you may be able to sense their presence. Psychics say that Nature spirits often reach out and speak to people but most don't realise it or think that it's in their imagination. A rustle of a branch on a still day, or the ripple on a pond or the fragrance of a flower can indicate nature spirits attempting to communicate with you.

Flower fairies are always found where ever there are domestic or wild flowers, they are in particular drawn towards children who play outside. Elves and fairies are found mainly within fields, whereas wood sprites are abundant in forests. Most people have a fascination for crystals and throughout history their magical properties have been sort by psychics and those requiring healing. Rock and stone spirits are very common and in every crystal or stone there is a Deva or nature spirit that works with it. These spirits are also said to hold the keys to prophecy and magic and most magic wands used in ritual magic have crystals attached. Every tree has it's own Deva, which is more active at night. Walking through a wood at night makes most people feel a little uneasy and uncomfortable. Tree spirits can be quite affectionate towards people. That's why some people have their favourite tree that they gain comfort and healing from. Elves and fairies also attach themselves to different types of trees. Cutting down a tree may displace a great many of these beings. The Elder and Rowan tree have high populations of elves and fairies living in and around them as they provide protection against evil spirits. Dark elves can often take up residency in the homes of humans, they can stimulate craftsmanship, their energy is strong and their presence can often be felt, but they are not harmful.

   The Irish word for fairy is sheehogue [sidheóg], a diminutive of "shee" in banshee. Fairies are deenee shee [daoine sidhe] (fairy people).
   Who are they? "Fallen angels who were not good enough to be saved, nor bad enough to be lost," say the peasantry. "The gods of the earth," says the Book of Armagh. "The gods of pagan Ireland," say the Irish antiquarians, "the Tuatha De DanÄ

Certain trees in particular places are said to be under the care and protection
of the Sidhe. A lone thorn bush growing in an uncultivated field is often such a
tree, especially if it is growing on a sharp hill slope. Hawthorn is the
favorite, but other important fairy trees are: hazel, blackthorn, elder, rowan,
willow, also alder and ash. The site of each tree is important to the Sidhe. It
must be growing within the banks of a rath (fort), inside a fairy ring, or in a
rocky field of rough grass, especially if growing near to a large boulder or a
spring.

The sidhe will protect their special trees. If someone harms or disturbs the
tree, they will suffer, often by becoming ill. If three thorn trees grow close
together, it is dangerous to get involved with them. It is considered unlucky to
bring hawthorn into the house.

Fairy Believer

found by moonbeams,
hidden in sunlight;
light they are,
light as the air;
bright are they,
bright as the sky;
or dark as a storm,
strange as the night.
lovely, magical,
mystical, playful,
mischievous makers
of trouble
and schemes;
a dreamer's dream,
believers believe
it seems as it is,
it is as it seems.
fantasy is
reality,
believers believe,
and see.

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries had its humble beginnings as an idea of a few artisans and craftsmen who enjoy performing with live steel fighting. As well as a patchwork quilt tent canvas. Most had prior military experience hence the name.

 

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries.

 

Vendertainers that brought many things to a show and are know for helping out where ever they can.

As well as being a place where the older hand made items could be found made by them and enjoyed by all.

We expanded over the years to become well known at what we do. Now we represent over 100 artisans and craftsman that are well known in their venues and some just starting out. Some of their works have been premiered in TV, stage and movies on a regular basis.

Specializing in Medieval, Goth , Stage Film, BDFSM and Practitioner.

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries a Dept of, Ask For IT was started by artists and former military veterans, and sword fighters, representing over 100 artisans, one who made his living traveling from fair to festival vending medieval wares. The majority of his customers are re-enactors, SCAdians and the like, looking to build their kit with period clothing, feast gear, adornments, etc.

Likewise, it is typical for these history-lovers to peruse the tent (aka mobile store front) and, upon finding something that pleases the eye, ask "Is this period?"

A deceitful query!! This is not a yes or no question. One must have a damn good understanding of European history (at least) from the fall of Rome to the mid-1600's to properly answer. Taking into account, also, the culture in which the querent is dressed is vitally important. You see, though it may be well within medieval period, it would be strange to see a Viking wearing a Caftan...or is it?

After a festival's time of answering weighty questions such as these, I'd sleep like a log! Only a mad man could possibly remember the place and time for each piece of kitchen ware, weaponry, cloth, and chain within a span of 1,000 years!! Surely there must be an easier way, a place where he could post all this knowledge...

Traveling Within The World is meant to be such a place. A place for all of these artists to keep in touch and directly interact with their fellow geeks and re-enactment hobbyists, their clientele.
