Folklore and Mythology

May 9 2012 Folklore and Mythology Newsletter


Greetings to all folk near and far.

Did you know that the people of Ireland still believe in the faery folk, as they did in days of old? It is true. When constructing new buildings or roadways there is always concern that the new structures will not destroy or block the pathways of the faery, or bad luck will surely come to the ones who break the path.

Come read about one of my favorite authors in my latest article from the Folklore and Mythology site at BellaOnline.com. -- William Butler Yeats relates Faerie and Folklore from the peasantry of Ireland in The Celtic Twilight.

Celtic Twilight - Book Review
Reading Celtic Twilight is like spending evenings with William B. Yeats as he quietly and expressively relates tales told to him by the people of the lands he wandered through as a younger man full of the passion of mysticism and the people of his beloved Ireland.

I would love to have you join me in my forum to discuss this or any of my articles with me. Or, just come and share your own thoughts and meet other people in the forums who also love folklore and mythology.

Till next time, may your home be filled with laughter and may it ring from floor to rafter. (an old Irish blessing)

Walk in peace and harmony.
