Fae beings not coming from God?

[gorgeousbutterfly]

Has anyone read or gotten info on this from their fairy companion?

Mine came into astral for a minute. Told me " don't be scared of death its but a moment. (something blurred) we do not come from god" i also heard a twinkling sound like the sound of a magic wand which is exactly how i pictured her since she helps with wishes.

I think she was saying she would be there to help me cross. Because i asked my other fairy if she would help (she's a dryad who helps humans cross she did get sad that i asked her that and was crying )

I have not heard of fairies not being made by god. I don't really trust a god by now so that had a meaning to me. feel incarnation is a trap.

I know my Camelot faery worships the faery goddess Fand, but even that is only one aspect of her spiritual beliefs. Considering how radically different faery culture is and the fact that some come from different realms than our own entirely, it only makes sense to presume that most do not acknowledge a monotheistic "God" akin to human Abrahamic beliefs.

This was a message from one of your spirit companions to you. Maybe you could ask them to clarify, if they can.

And you'll be processing the mesage according to what your beliefs and thoughts are about the world. I wouldn't myself process the same words in the same way or have the same reactions, as I have different ideas about belief.

Some of us humans believe in the Judeo-Christian idea of God/Yahweh. Not all humans do. So it's unsurprising that not all spirits do. For example, I have Djinn who may be Islamic but I have one from ancient Britain who is pagan celtic in their belief system. So, if a spirit thinks of where they came from and they're not Judeo-Christian or Islamic, they may not think of having been made by or come from 'God'.

That's different from thinking our spirits are 'ungodly', ie they do not come from God or are not good, in that sense. That has long been an incorrect and unfortunate aspect of Christian thinking. You know: all sprits are evil. Pure prejudice and lacking any metaphysical sophistication, in my opinion.

However it's interesting to me that there has been some thinking centuries ago by Christian clerics in Ireland on the matter. I think the belief in fairies there was so strong that Christian priests wouldn't have got far arguing that they didn't exist. And humans' experiences and traditions around fairies (Na Daoine Sidhe) were so strongly held - with well known tales of good and bad experiences - that the only question for those clerics was a theological one: were fairies 'of God' or of evil?

They seemed to agree that good ones must be good but then had to do some theological gymnastics to label them as Angels and therefore 'of God'.

I like to think that before Christianity came to Ireland, the Sidhe there didn't much know about or believe in a Judeo-Christian God. They had their own Gods of course. That didn't make them bad or unholy. In fact, from my research, there was a point in Ireland at which Christian clergy believed fairies were a form of Angel and therefore of God.

I do like to compare literature on what my spirts tell me.. I am curious if i can get enough info about them and find the right book or source and just read that instead of just asking them all the questions..

So far i have found katerine briggs was recommended by my other fae and this book talks about them not being from god. So that is confirmation for me.. I am still researching.

Please ignore the suggestion that fae are fallen angels or whatever. This is clearly the church messing with the original beliefs and customs. I believe I read somewhere (maybe here or perhaps a spirit said it to me) that everything is from Source/God/Goddess, even the darkness.

My fairy really say she was not from God. I think she was born from nature. I really do. it all goes back to God though.

Exactly gorgeous butterfly, all comes from god or the divine, whatever you choose to call the source of everything.
