§962

‘I [Croatian national] was watering my plants on my balcony, and when I turned… by my right side, at the height between my elbow and shoulder I saw something that looked like a weird shimmering air mass, it was without a shape, but similar in appearance to hot air when emerging from hot asphalt. But it was not hot outside. It is actually hard to describe, because it was like tiny sparkles forming a mass, like a small ethereal cloud. I had never seen anything like it before. For the first moment I thought ‘I’m hallucinating’, but I blinked several times and averted my eyes, yet it was still there, moving (like millions of very, very tiny, shimmering transparent fireflies, forming a moving cloud). I don’t believe in fairies with wings and sparkly little creatures hiding in the flowers, although I do believe in Daoine Sidhe and nature spirits, so this was quite a surprise for me. This cloud moved in place while my breath was taken away, trying to figure out if my brain is deceiving me, but my sight is great. I’m a completely sane person and I don’t take any alcohol, or any sort of drugs. The strange thing was that I had a rush of some strange feeling that I can’t quite explain, like I never felt it before, not strong feeling like sadness or happiness, just a different feeling, which passed through my whole body. Then I tried to touch the mass and these tiny lights, moved between my fingers. I removed my hand and then they disappeared. But it was definitely something I never seen before. It was not due to heat or gas mass evaporating. Those were not insects for they shimmered, and it was not some sun reflection, for it appeared during the day. Light was good, but there was no sun, for it was a cloudy day. And that feeling I had, was something entirely strange. ‘A cloud or a mass of tiny, ethereal, transparent. What should I say? Like fireflies but not fireflies, and they had shimmer, like air-plankton, they shimmered when moving. Maybe the mass was actually semi-visible form, it is hard to explain, but what I saw with my eyes was like a living, transparent cloud of shimmering plankton that moved.’ ‘My house was built by my grandfather, and before, and all around it were trees, before other houses were built. The apple tree was just beneath the place where I had this experience, and my family was very connected with all that grows, all trees and plants in our garden were planted by my grandfather.’ ‘I don`t believe in little beings in sparkly dresses hiding in the flowers, I never had. I was raised believing and practicing pagan way of life and in our work, we often work with Gods and Goddesses, through channeling, meditation and ‘beings’ ‘appear’ through presence, they can be felt. My personal view of fairies is old-fashioned, for I have Irish ancestry, and I perceive them more as human-sized beings, or forms of energy, and not like not like sparkly masses flowing around the plants. But this I actually saw, not with my mind’s eye, but with my real eyes, and I was completely sane.’ ‘I believe in different ‘energy’ forms, like essence, to avoid ‘soul’ word. And energy is everywhere, in all realms. I do believe in parallel realms, and I believe that each energy is different, and it can take different shapes. I believe there are different beings, and that some of them are much higher forms of life than mortals. I believe Fairies to be ancient gods, and I do believe they exist in between what mortals can perceive with physical senses.’ ‘I have a photo of a standing stone (Lough Gur Lios stone circle), where I felt amazing energy, when we visited few years ago. There was a slight hum heard, but I did not see anything, any shape nor form with my physical eyes. I did not felt presence, but I felt something quite unexplainable, it is hard to put to words. I took the photo of a stone, and there was some weird light on it, like emerging from the stone. I’m not sure if this is some light-play, but it is not a lens flare I usually saw on photos. I would be happy to send you the photo if required, for I’m not sure what kind of light is it, it maybe just some reflection, but maybe it is something else. I know for a fact, when I took the photo, I did not see that light on my camera, and it was not there in real life.’
