More Faery Musings

I think faeries are visiting me lately. Not sure why, although I think inviting them, no matter how unconsciously, has something to do with their presence. The trick is to be appreciative and careful; maintain a balance between thankfulness yet wariness. I hear they can be fickle things if you're not careful.


It appears to me that the sort of cryptic goings-on recounted here might represent the presence of an intelligence that is subsequently sculpted by the psyche of the participant/s. Gray aliens on the brain? That's likely what you'll get.

Not to say the Grays are the only comprehensible form instigated by "faery energy" -- only that the ambient intelligence is quick to attach itself to whatever archetype fits the bill at any given moment. Visions of dead people, religious epiphanies and poltergeist phenomena are equally possible outcomes.

But the intelligence behind the facade might not be native to our planet; maybe we're dealing with a psychological symbiote that's been re-engineering the noosphere for hundreds of thousands of years, laying groundwork for a project that's only know beginning to reveal itself . . .

...or the human imagination is complex, able to conjure all sorts of entities, and fully capable of distorting our perception of reality- a far simpler explanation.

Or perhaps both.

Or the simplest explanation of all: people just hallucinate this stuff.

HOWEVER (note the "big however") to say someone is hallucinating X does not necessarily mean that X does not exist. Also, so-called "mass hallucinations" (such as appearances of the Virgin Mary to crowds, etc.) tend to negate the idea that there is not something "objective" about certain manifestations, at any rate. The truth is, we prefer to "explain away" things like this rather simply to try and understand exactly what is going on in terms of the experience itself, minus ANY explanation at all! Let's stop trying to "explain" (or explain away) these so called "phenomena" (which they may not actually be anyway -- there are other things in this cosmose besides "phenomena") and focus on accurately describing and understanding the experience itself.
