We often think of bears in folklore as strong warriors and terrible gluttons, but they are also healers, too. Among the Oneida, among many others, the Bear Clan are the keepers of medicine, history, and herbal lore, which all go hand in hand. #FairytaleTuesday

The #fairytale of Little Sunlight, where a bad fairy curses a new babe to never be awake in sunlight, only in the light of the #moon, the curse made her wane like it too. 'But the bad fairy lived in a horrid mud house, in the middle of a dark swamp.' #FolkloreSunday

Pre-A Midsummer Night's Dream, the classical belief was that fairies were beautiful, temperamental, & dangerous, larger-than-life beings who could grant humans gifts or punishments on a whim. This folklore was also a way to explain why bad things happened. #FolkloreSunday
Morning all, @frome_maude here, welcoming you to today’s theme of:
FAIRIES!
Bring on your tweets with the hashtag #FolkloreSunday for a retweet. Image: When the Fairies Came by Ida Rentoul Outhwaite, 1920s.
A fairy doctor was a kind of wise woman or cunning man in Ireland who was taught good magic by fairies. They were called "fairy doctors" because they used their magic to heal people hurt by bad fairies just like a regular doctor healed those hurt by diseases.

In the epic Persian poem The Shahnameh, the divine being Sorush appears in the form of a peri to Keyumars, the first Shah of Iran, to warn him of the demonic spirit Ahriman. Keyumars assembles an army, including peri soldiers, to defeat Ahriman. #FolkloreSunday
"The Story of the Prince & the Peri" is about a young woman whose new husband, the son of a shah, won't speak a word to her. She discovers he's already bound in marriage to a peri princess. Once she breaks the spell, her husband declares his love for her. #FolkloreSunday
Peri (or pari) are winged, fairy-like beings in Persian myth who live in the land of Paristan on Mount Qaf. Originally they were spirits denied entry to Paradise until they completed atonement. Under Islamic influence, they became more benevolent & mischievious. #FolkloreSunday

Heritage and folklore in Web 3.0 is amazing. The digitisation of culture and heritage in marvellous new ways continues. @yegizart is an #NFTArtist who made this lovely artwork of Pai, a goblin guardian spirit, which can be kind or harmful, depending on the attitude towards it.
