It has been quite a while since my last blog post
finally I will be able to share some of my discoveries that seems so rarely
touched upon by Celtic inclined pagans these days, especially seeing as so many
claim to work with the Faerie Folk and yet. They have not been introduced on
how to get a contract with their loyal hounds. Best of luck to my readers.
Now these
are an interesting bunch to observe.
Fairly infamous for their red tipped ears and white fur, and sometimes
beady red eyes, however that is from their more frightening aspects. Now you might be familiar with this
description but under other names such as Cwn Annwn, also been believed to have
participated in the known Wild Hunt. And vividly captured souls and dragged
them to the Welsh underworld or Annwn, or in modern folklore Hell. However Hell
hounds are a bit more different than Fae Hounds. You might think why I have
dubbed them as “Faerie Hounds” and not by their more common namesakes, well I
hold a connection or contracts with the Celtic Faerie courts. These courts are
roughly known as Summer & Winter courts or the more degrading naming as
blessed and unblessed courts. By faerie
as in formerly dead humans or aspects of nature/thought-forms who gained a
spectral or spiritual form. By tradition
the Fae have “stables” of these hounds, each pack born for one specific person
of faerie origins. Or to a human the Faerie may favour or hold a specific bond
with. If you happen to have former
experience, of working with the Celtic faerie realms, this may become easier
for you.
Faerie Hound Contract
Meditation:
Find a
comfortable place, where you can relax. Find some Celtic inspired music or folk
music to more easily adapt into the gateways to the Celtic Faerie Realms. To me that gate appears like a wooden door in
the tree trunk. It can take either to the lands of Spring / Summer court or to
the lands of Autumn/ Fall/ Winter court.
Before this decision it might be wise to consider which seasons you feel
more at “home” with. For me it is Autumn / Winter court that rings more with
me, what will be your choice? Whichever choice you make it will lead you to a set
of stables. Similar to Horse Stable’s although slightly different, you may be
met by the Stable groundskeeper. Who is a rather old Fae, and he will demand
respect, If you pass his small tests (I cannot rely what kind of tests he will
give) you will be getting a fine lecture of the tending and care of a faerie
hound pack of roughly 2-3 or 4-8 puppies it may vary. Then you will be led to
your packs small den, and you will be able to get to know and bond with
them.
After this
meeting; You can choose to summon your faerie hounds one by one or as a whole
unit. To either grant protection and healing to your friends. Or have them
attack and rip a person’s emotions to shreds. Be noted that summoning them will
take up and away your energy so remember to eat before you summon them.
Now this is
all for now. Hope you survived the long read.
