Fox Fairies

Fox Fairies

These fairies are traditionally very cunning and magical creatures. This is according to the Northern

Chinese Myth of the Fox fairies. 
In the legend when a fox reaches fifty years of age, it will be able to turn into a woman.

At the age of one hundred years the Fox Fairy will be able to transform into a young girl and at one thousands years of age, the Fox Fairy will become a Celestial Fox and will have grown nine tails. 
Most often what these Fox Fairies will do is appear in the form of young beautiful school girls. Studying in the evening and would seduce their College Professors. In the later evening these professors  would make love to these young school girls and would find that the girl had disappared in the morning. But she woud always return again that evening to seduce the professors again and again. These Scholars, is what they were called back in the day, found themselves getting weaker and weaker, until one of them learns from a 

Taoist that the girl is a Fox Fairy, who was sucking them dry to obtain the essence of immortality. So if you ever find yourself in a similar position, notice the signs of the girl they call the Fox Fairy. Her surname, which she will say to be Hu which means fox. Another fact to notice is that she never changes her clothes when she visits a victim - well that could be a harsh word. But these are spiritual fairies and do draw the essence out of your body. Another curious thing about these cunning creatures is their clothes that they ware never seem to be soiled, day after day of being waren. 

Fox Fairies also lived invisibly with people in houses in old Beijing with a fox officials keeping watch

in the tower at the eastern side gate of the city.Families who share these houses with these Fox Faeries were to put food out for them and to not complain when they made noises at night or else the Fox Faeries would put filth in their food supply. 
The Japanese also believed in the Fox Fairies too-
They called them Koki Teno. They assumed they could take a human form by entering the bodies of

mortals or by finding a skull in a cemetery and facing the North Star.
Note: These faeries could be always be recognized by their most feared animal the Typical DOG! 
I hope you enjoyed this new Fairy as much as I have.. 

I found these Fairies to be very interesting. Also the fact that they come from Asian Culture. My husband is American Japanese so this was a treat for me! I have always love the Asian Culture and the great spiritual meaning they have behind their Culture, Family and Religion too. I found that these Fox Fairies to be in some way spiritual even though they are a very cunning and cleaver Fae too. 
Note too that the images I have found are not mind; but I hope that 
you enjoy the great artist that have created them.

Annabel Lee - Edgar Allan Poe 1849

Annabel Lee

It was many and many a year ago,

  In a kingdom by the sea,

That a maiden there lived whom you may know

  By the name of ANNABEL LEE;--

And this maiden she lived with no other thought

  Than to love and be loved by me.

She was a child and I was a child,

  In this kingdom by the sea,

But we loved with a love that was more than love--

  I and my Annabel Lee--

With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven

  Coveted her and me.

And this was the reason that, long ago,

  In this kingdom by the sea,

A wind blew out of a cloud by night

  Chilling my Annabel Lee;

So that her high-born kinsman came

  And bore her away from me,

To shut her up in a sepulchre

  In this kingdom by the sea.

The angels, not half so happy in Heaven,

  Went envying her and me:--

Yes!that was the reason (as all men know,

  In this kingdom by the sea)

That the wind came out of a cloud, chilling

  And killing my Annabel Lee. 

But our love it was stronger by far than the love

  Of those who were older than we--

  Of many far wiser than we-

And neither the angels in Heaven above,

 Nor the demons down under the sea,

Can ever dissever my soul from the soul

  Of the beautiful Annabel Lee:--

For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams

  Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;

And the stars never rise but I see the bright eyes

  Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;

And so , all the night-tide, I lie down by the side

Of my darling, my darling my life and my bride,

 In her sepulchre there by the sea--

 In her tomb by the side of the sea. 
By Edgar Allan Poe 1849

Golden Dragons

The Golden Dragon

Although the Golden dragon isn't in any particular family group of the dragon. The Golden dragon is

History of the Golden Dragon~
The Golden dragon doesn't belong to any of the typical three three elements - Earth, Water and Fire. By nature he embraces all three. However the Golden Dragon does have an element of his own and that would be the element Air.
But either of the main elements will predominate in him alone. 
The Life of the Golden Dragon~
The Golden's are quite beautiful in comparison to any of the other dragons. This could be that their scales and wings are made of an scintillating burnished Gold! But even if he has all this beauty he is a  noble dragon and doesn't boast about his looks. 

There is another dragon called the Celestial Dragon that I will cover at some later point that has

some of the same qualities as the golden dragon.
The Celestial Dragon is from Ancient China and is a symbol of the Chinese people around the world.  They proudly proclaimed to be a

descendants of this dragon. The Ancient Chinese people feel that the Celestial dragon is refer as divine and will bring ultimate abundance, prosperity and good fortune. 

Some say, that only three knights have actually set their eyes upon the Golden dragon and only one 

single man has even been a friend to a golden dragon. 
To understand something of this mysterious, there was supposedly a BOOK OF THE GOLDEN DRAGON. This book of all the secrets of the dragons was handed down from generations for centenaries but who knows what happened to the BOOK? 
Culture~ 
Tradition says that the Golden dragon has never taken part in any aggressive action whatsoever. He

is pure and unsullied by any flaw. 
He has also been know as the keeper and defends and the enchanted castle where a pure hearted knight who devotedly helps guard what is know as the Sacred Chalice- 
The Sacred Chalice~ is said to have hidden font and quintessence of wisdom encompassed by a double principle. The meaning of of the Chalice is- 'Life Secrets lies In Comprehension rather than Knowledge' . 
This subtle, supernal message, has to be concealed from the minds of humans because they are not yet ready for this KNOWLEDGE! 
ONLY THREE KNIGHTS HAVE EVER BEEN SUCCEEDED IN REALIZING SOME OF ITS MEANING AND THE MESSAGE. 
AND ONLY ONE KNIGHT WHO WAS FREE FORM STAIN BECAME ITS TRUE CUSTODIAN. 

So it was said - when the two Companions, the pure-hearted knight and the Sacred Chalice were then Transported away by the Golden Dragon with a promise that they would return to the outside world when the dwellers of this world were worthy of the Sacred Chalice and its knowledge. 
The Castle of the Golden Dragon~

The Castle is made of pure Crystal and is hidden in the heart of a ancient Oakwood forest in a Enchanted world. In this Castle is where he is watching of the Guardian Knight until the illumination of the Sacred Chalice can be accepted onto the Earth.  
The Prophecy~
It is prophesied that when this happens every single dragon on the earth will take flight to meet the Golden dragon, to carry on their backs  the chosen men who will finally solve the enigmas of the Chalice-
The Prophecy states that once humankind is properly enlightened, humans, will eventually pay homage to the Golden Dragon.

It is said that through this Grand eventual revelation all nature will be cured of its terrible destruction,fear and hatred will be purged from the earth. 
Peace will gradually break out instead of War and a dawn emitted from the Sacred Chalice will bathe our weary world into the Golden-light of a New World.

Note-
This of course is either Myth, legend, or how much one wants to believe in Fae? Or it very well could be true who know! The legend of the Holy Grail and other Holy legends - That you can't explain or SEE?  

The question that I ask you is do you believe in the possibility that there may be a golden dragon, a sacred chalice that will purged the earth of our destructive ways we have done? Do you believe in the unseen world of the faerie world, elves, mermaids, and other creatures of the unseen world. Just because you can't see don't me they aren't there!
Wendy. 
Note: None of the images are mine
But please do enjoy the artist that do draw
an paint these beautiful depictions of the Golden dragon
& the Celestial Dragon too.

    

Faeries - J.R. Tolkiens

*Faeries*

I am off down the road

where the fairy lanterns glowed

And the little pretty flitter-mice are flying

A Slender band of grey

It run creepily away

And the hedges and the grasses are a-sighing.

The air is full of wings,

And of blundery beetle-things

That warn you with their whirring and 

their humming.

O! I hear the ting horns

of enchanged leprechauns

And the padded feet of many gnomes a - coming!

O! the lights! o! the gleams! O! the little twinkly

sounds!

O! the rustle of their noiseless little robes!

O! the echo of their feet-of their happy little

feet!

O! the swinging lamps in the starlit globes.

J.R. Tolkien

There may be fairies at the bottom of the garden. 

There is no evidence for it, but you can't prove that there

arent' any, so shouldn't we be agnostic with respect to 

fairies?

Fairies - Arabella Buckley

~Fairies~

There are forces around us, and among us, which I shall ask you to 

allow me to call fairies, and these are ten thousand times more wonderful, 

more magical, and more beautiful in their world, than those of the

old fairy tales...

Just go out into the country, and sit down quietly

and watch nature at work. Listen to the wind

as it blows, look at the clouds rolling overhead,

and waves rippling on the pond at your feet.

Hearken to the brook as it flows by, 

watch the flower buds opening one by one, and

then ask yourself, "How all this is done?" Go out in

the evening and see the dew gather drop by drop

upon the grass, or trace the delicate hoar - frost

crystals which bespangle every blade on a winters morning. 

Look at the vivid flashes of lightning in a storm, and

 listen to the pealing thunder and then tell me, by 

what machinery is all this wonderful work done? Man does

none of it, neither could he stop it if he were to try; for 

it is all the work of the those invisible forces or fairies

whose acquaintance I wish you to make. Day and night,

summer and winter, storm or calm, these fairies are

at work and we may hear them and know them

and make friends of them if we will.
