Leprechauns and other Wee Folk

It's springtime, and Fearies abound. Let's see if we can't catch us one!

The Leprechaun is one of the major images that the Mainstream Culture has of what a Feary is, or what a Feary looks like. The other, of course, is Disney's Tinkerbell.  Whatever Pagan path you may be following, I'm sure I don't have to tell you that neither of those images fulfills the whole tradition of the Fearie. 

But anyway, the Leprechaun has a pretty interesting story by itself (or Himself - come to think of it, I've never heard of a female Leprechaun).  

So this week, we'll look at just what a Leprechaun is and they look like. Then we'll look at where they come from - and finally the BIG QUESTION - the Pro's and Con's of actually catching a Leprechaun.

I have a story called, The Leprechaun Trap, By Teresa Bateman. Plus, let's build a Feary Garden - someplace on your property where the Fey can call home.  

Finally, we'll hear a first-hand account from Erwin Saunders "First Sighting of a Pixie". This is a video available on You Tube

Be well. Do good. Enjoy the show!
