Peri Fairies

Peri Fairies
In this post I am looking into the Tiny Peri Fairies. These tiny faeries are known to be from ancient Peria. These tiny winged female nature spirits are so beautiful that it is said that they shimmer with all the colors of the rainbow.
Peri Fairy
Peris Fairies are usually always female too! Before the coming of Islam, Peris Faeries were held responsible for catastrophic nature events such as comets, eclipses of the sun and huge crop failures of land. 
With the advent of Islam, the Peris Faeries were deemed to be fallen angles, who repented of their transgressions too late to be restored into Heaven.
Tales are told how the Prophet Muhammad was sent to convert them to Islam. In the earlier Zoroastrian faith of Persia. The Peris Faeries were thought to represent the light and good forces of nature that constantly at war with the dark and evil forces called Deevs. 
There are tales of the Deevs that have captured these beautiful Peris fairies, and have locked them in iron cages at the very tops of old growth forest. They were sustained by eating the odor of perfumes that were brought to them by other Peris that looked after them, until they could figure away of releasing them. 
I found theses faeries fascinating myself. Its Probably due to the  fact that they are both heavenly and have a bit of a dark-side too. I have always known I have had a little bit of a dark-side, probably due to the last 8years of discovery and my health. Anyway. I hope that you all enjoyed the post. Wendy..

Adhene Fairies

Adhene Fairies
The Adhene fairy is  known as the Manx Fairy. They are also called the Cloanny Moyrn Fairies - Which means Children of the Pride.
These fairies are not your typical fairy. You wouldn't find them in a old growth Oak forest or even your own backyard. The Adhene fairies are more a Dark Fae. And have a bit of a bite to them. 
In many folklore and legends of  these type of fairies, it is said they were fallen angels that were
exiled from heaven along with Satan who at one time himself was an angel too!
The legend goes-
"When they fell, they rained down from the heavens in a thick shower that lasted for three days and three nights. These fallen angels lived in the earth the air and the sea. They will continue to live in these places on the earth until Judgement Day.
Traits-
They are not like the small English Fairies but are very shy; usually female. You can see them playing in waterfalls and dancing on mountain tops. Adhene Fairies are very beautiful, probably due to the fact they were once angels. But even though they may be angelic in their appearance, they are very mischievous too.
Overall the Adhene Fairies are mostly benevolent, however they are some who are more sinister who ten to go to the dark side of the Fae. 
Lifestyle-
The Adhene Fairy lives apart from all other types of fairies. The reason I say this is because of  their lifestyle and living quarters. For example: These fairies seem to like the dark deep caverns that have some of the most evil and scariest creatures within them, the heaviest fogs, and the darkest places they could find. They delight in causing misery to others. But it is believed that these fairies cannot harm a being on the earth, if one is on an errand of Mercy. (Since they were once angels) 
So if you ever find yourself walking along at night on the Isle of Man and you don't happen to be on an errand of Mercy. 
As the old legend tells, you must watch your step for the benevolent Adhene Fairy. 
So you might want to keep the old legends pray on hand-
It is always recommended to chant this prayer when you find yourself walking along at night on the Isle of Man-
"Saue Jee Mee Voish Cloan ny moyrn"
('God save me from the children of the pride')
