Fairies are mythical creatures that nonetheless have a basis in physical reality. Fairy lore is a branch of traditional mythology, which is ultimately one of the original forms of scientific observation - i.e. storms occur or the wind blows due to the influences of gods. Science and mythology both attempt to catalogue nature and figure out its mechanisms and structure. Today we no longer blame gods for weather, but we do blame storms on politically motivated environmentalist ideology. Fairies are merely an anthropomorphization of nature; elves are playful, musical and dancing qualities; leprechauns are the tricky, fierce, and magical elements; pixies are a combination of the previous but with a proclivity for shiny objects and a desire to prank humans. In essence, the FAIRY is a general name for one of four elements and their elementals - earth, fire, air, water.

Putting the overtly psychological and biological effects of losing a child aside, women have usually been the victims of fairy abductions and forced child care; they are taken to a hidden fairy base and asked to breast feed a child, or are experimented on medically. Men experience something similar, but for slightly different reasons. In both cases we are looking at examples of modern UFO abduction and the subsequent medical, often sexual, experimentations performed by the craft's occupants.

The famous ‘fairy circles’ may also be explained with ’science’, but they are nevertheless proof of some sort of natural phenomenon and thus personified as evidence of the very real fairy or UFO. Tradition and lore tell that witnesses would see rings of lights in a field or forest, and hear songs and dancing. Upon further investigation the participants would be identified as very small creatures - usually green or wearing green. If someone got too close the fairies would strike them with their ‘fairy shot’ (also called ‘elf shot’) and perhaps even abdcut them. The eery similarity to UFO encounters cannot be ignored. Strange lights in a forest or field, usually in a circle, occupied by little green men with ray guns who just may abduct you if you get too close.

These rings of lights can also be seen daily when observing the sun as it moves through the sky. The Egyptian myth is of the Boat of Ra flying through the sky from morning to night. From these stories we acquire the 'symbol of totality' in that of the flying solar disc, which can be found all throughout the ancient world. Modern UFOs are identified as spacecraft today, largely as a result of the collective projection of our own technology, but in the ancient world a boat, shield, or chariot was the understood technological apex.
