Who Are the Sluagh Sidhe?
Posted by: RedAutumnRain on Monday, March 26, 2007 - 02:00 PM
In Irish and Scottish folklore, the Sluagh Sidhe, known also as the Fairy Host, are considered to be a manifestation of the Wild Hunt. The Sluagh consist of the unrestful spirits of the dead and are considered by many to be troublesome and destructive. The word Sluagh refers to a "host," or perhaps a more applicable translation would be "army."
Coming from the West, the Sluagh fly in groups like flocks of birds and attempt to enter a house where someone is dying to take the soul away with them. West facing windows are sometimes kept closed to keep them out. In the testimonies of many rural folk a distinction is often made between the sidhe who are seen walking on the ground after sunset, and the Sluagh Sidhe, or Fairy Host, who travel or fly through the air at night and are known to kidnap mortals with them on their journeys. According to W. B. Yeats, the Tuatha de Danann were also referred to as the Sluagh Sidhe (Fairy Host) or Marcra Sidhe (Fairy Cavalcade). The Sluagh are considered to be the most fierce and terrifying of all the fairy peoples.
