About Fairy Faces

About fairy faces and forms- What do actual fairies look like? You said a mortals thought of how they look is wrong. What do they really look like? Thank you for your time!

Ophelia Fey says -- Sadiyah, what I meant is that mortals mostly depend on their folklore for how fairies look - for fairy faces and forms. There are, of course, those who really do see fairies. But all humans must see what they see through the filter of their own five senses and their mind. Everyone's filter is quite different, depending on where and how they have been brought up.

Sometimes when people see fairies they see a sort of form, and their eyes "fill in the gap" you might say, and make them think that they're seeing a form rather like their own. Perhaps they are somewhat. Perhaps the fairy has adapted itself enough to its surroundings that it has taken on a recognizable form. Those who live near human realms do that.

But fairies who are fresh in from the ethereal dimensions may look quite un-solid. And you may not recognize them at all. This is, in fact, the typical fairy state. It is more like moving energy that also causes the natural world in which it has entered, to also slightly morph and look unfocused. The energy streaming from them can be mistaken as wings, and thus human stories have assigned all sorts of wings (especially butterfly types) to nature spirits. And indeed, when we decide to take on a more substantial form, we do like to array ourselves in wings and garments. It's fun. Like dressing up. That's one reason why we take on forms.

But the actual essence of fae is quite different than that. I am including here two pictures which capture it a little. (Just click on each one, and it will get bigger, almost like magic). You can get an idea of a fairy entering into your dimension in different stages. If you were able to catch a glimpse of this, you would see that fairies are always not what you show them to be.
