Merry Meet!
I am so sorry I haven't kept up with my page. i have been kept busy. I redid my page.
Ok so I got the fabulous book A Witches Guide to Faery Folk by Edain McCoy. It has a guided meditation to go to Faeryland and I wait till I was back at school and with my friend to try it out. She did it first and before I had even gotten to the part where she got to faeryland she sat up and said that what i had been describing wasnt where she was. She had put pulled to a long corridor in a white tent. After a little she said that i oddly had felt sexual. Then I decided to take a try at it. I didnt astral project but was extremely energized, my skin was electric. I ended the meditation early and after a little bit we went to dinner. When we got back to her room she asked me to look at her neck because it hurt, like a bruise. So I looked and it looked like a heat rash. It was below her ear and in the back of her neck. I then started looking through the book for possible explainations for what happened with my friend. Theres a dictionary at the end of the book and at supper for some odd reason incubus came up so when i saw it in the index I decided to read about them. When I read this we were surprised. "Persons who have been attacked by these malevolent spirits display mild to severe bruises and bite marks, many of them in places where they could not be self inflicted." Well upon inspection in better lighting it looked like a bite mark on her neck. THen I was on the computer looking up incubus for her and my side hurt when i touched it. I looked at my sides and i had bruises that looked like finger prints. So we cleansed her room thoroughly. Then a couple days later I had this 'dream' that i was on my bed and I kept get i guess bombarded by entities. Its the most scared in my life that i have ever been. The next night I had on me tigers eye and laboradite(sp) and I was fine. Then a couple days later when i was taking a nap and forgot to have the crystals on me I kept feeling like I was being poked and like things were being thrown at me. I kept "waking up" and looking for my room mate but she was never in the room I was alone. THen later I looked at my side and again i had bruises. So I took an quartz eliquer and cleansed my room and I havent had any problems so far.
Yikes! No foolin' Thanks for a fascinating blog post. Sounds like you two had quite an adventure-- for lack of a better term. I gave my daughter (who's now 25) a copy of that book a few years ago, as I recall... she loves and collects anything to do with Faeries and Faerie, even more than I do, though I'm an old Tinker Bell fan myself! ;-) Anyway, I must admit, I've been a little leery of some of Edain McCoy's books, which are sometimes seriously lacking in reliable scholarship or fact-checking, especially after that *Witta: An Irish Pagan Tradition* tome she came out with awhile back. In it she actually claimed "Witta" was ancient and traditional, but oddly enough, she seemed entirely unaware of the very basic linguistic fact that there's no letter "w" in the Irish alphabet! Oooops! (BTW, as many people are still unaware, the word "Wicca" itself is Old English/Anglo-Saxon, NOT Celtic, although it only meant "male Witch"-- the original word for the Craft was documentably "Wiccecraeft"!) There were other provably factual errors in the book, such as her claim that potatoes were an ancient part of the Irish diet, when they were provably introduced to Ireland in more recent centuries... the 17th, I think. Oh well. Maybe Ms McCoy knows more about faeries than she does about potatoes or Witch words? Tee hee... In any case, follow your own lights and hearts and keep up the adventures, grrrls! :-)
