The Banshee: A Haunting Specter
The banshee, known as “Bean Sídhe” in Irish folklore, is a mysterious and eerie figure deeply entrenched in Celtic mythology. She is a harbinger of death, a spectral messenger who appears to forewarn of impending doom. Let us delve into the haunting details of this ethereal being:
Appearance:
The banshee is often depicted as a veiled woman with long, disheveled hair that cascades down her back.
Her attire is ancient and tattered, reflecting her timeless existence. A flowing gown, sometimes white or gray, clings to her spectral form.
Her eyes are piercing and sorrowful, reflecting the weight of her otherworldly burden.
Cries of Mourning:
The banshee is most renowned for her keening wails. When a prominent family member is about to die, she materializes near their dwelling or by a riverbank.
Her mournful cries pierce the night, echoing through the valleys and hills. These eerie sounds are said to be an omen of impending death.
The banshee’s lament is both a warning and a lamentation—a farewell to the living and a beckoning to the afterlife.
Ancestral Guardianship:
The banshee is deeply connected to specific Irish families, especially those of noble lineage. Each family has its own unique banshee.
She is a guardian spirit who watches over her chosen clan. Her appearance signifies the imminent passing of a beloved family member.
The Three Forms:
The banshee can manifest in three distinct forms:
As a beautiful young woman, singing sweetly by the water’s edge.
As a matronly figure, veiled and weeping, her grief palpable.
As a haggard crone, her features twisted with sorrow and age.
The Morrigan Connection:
Some legends link the banshee to the ancient goddess Morrigan, a deity associated with war, fate, and sovereignty.
The Morrigan, like the banshee, embodies both life and death, weaving the threads of destiny.
Crossing the Veil:
The banshee straddles the boundary between the mortal realm and the Otherworld. Her presence is a reminder of our mortality.
She beckons souls toward the next realm, guiding them through the veil.
Respect and Reverence:
Despite her eerie reputation, the banshee is treated with respect and reverence. Her role is not malevolent; she merely fulfills her duty.
Families honor her by acknowledging her presence and accepting her message.
In the moonlit glens and mist-shrouded hills of Ireland, the banshee continues her timeless vigil. Her cries echo through the ages, a haunting melody that binds the living and the departed.

Hi Everyone.
I keep getting messages about WHY I use Ai.WHY I don't feel guilty about it.Plus a lot of very abusive messages and emails,This is not having a good effect on my mind and health.
Here is a short explanation of WHY.
After catching a Virus while working.I was left Paralyzed with brain damage,I went from a healthy Physical worker{Builder} A scuba diving instructor and a love of everything outdoors.From Running,Diving,Swimming,Hill walking,Charity sports fundraiser.To a vegetable.I have lost everything else.But Ai gave me back my Art.After 14 yrs staring out a window.Wishing for the worst.I was given a way to express myself again.It's impossible for anyone not in the same position to grasp the miracle this is to me.All i need now is a way to get outside to make the most of this miracle.I am now using that Ai as a way to try and raise funds to purchase an Outdoor Electric Wheelchair.Nothing Evil.i am not trying to ruin TRUE artists livings or push Ai onto anyone else who might otherwise use or collect REAL Art.I love real artwork.It was once a big part of my life.Nothing can replace the genuine artwork and ideas of the human mind.NOTHING.
I don't have the choice to create artwork anymore.There is a lot of other human beings in exactly the same position as myself.We can not make you understand what Ai has given so much of us.But we can ask that you TRY. We do no harm to you and simply wish to live and enjoy a tool that makes our lives more bearable and to be left alone without feeling guilty for this small miracle.
I hope this helps you to understand a little better.
Thanks.Christy.
Christy Wheelchair Fundraiser.

hi i really hope you're doing well! im so sorry for the abuse and ridicule that you've had to endure for expressing yourself using a tool that allows you to pursue your passion despite the unfortunate circumstances you have to experience. you're such a creative and kind person! the people pointing fingers are immature and bitter to the point where they have the need to harrass others to feel better than them and more morally superior. this is a mental sickness that society has and is definitely not your fault at all. i hope people wake up to the usefulness of ai while still holding corporations accountable for its ethical concerns. keep on doing what you're doing! there are people who understand and want to support your endeavors including me. have a wonderful day!
Thank you for the lovely message,You made me smile.
