La Banshee

The Banshee is a powerful Being Fairy, commonly represented as a female spirit who cries and moans in the night, predicting death and disaster for both individual families or clans, and to an entire community.

The traditions relating to him are the strongest in Ireland, but many sites with surviving Celtic have a variant of the Banshee.

In most descriptions, the Banshees appear dressed in green, maybe wearing a gray coat, with long unkempt hair and eyes red from crying. Physically appear either in the form of young women is as old hags. But the common feature of all the testimonies and descriptions, is dismal and heartbreaking lament, a harbinger of doom, as mentioned above

It is said that the oldest families (not necessarily noble) have almost all of a Banshee "personal", which was responsible to announce the imminent death or misfortune, but not all. It seems that, at times, the banshee of the family, also appeared in less dramatic situations, as with some births.

The Banshee would be used to look around the family's ancestral home, do not always show in his eyes, but always showing up with his characteristic wail.

Undoubtedly, the relationship with the family is very strong, which has given rise to the belief in Ireland Banshee that the other is that the spirit of a woman from the early generations of the family, a sort of matriarch passed the ranks of 'another world with the task of proclaiming to future generations of his family some of the crucial moments of existence.

The link between a banshee and his "protection" is so tight that even the migration of that family in another continent may cut flowers. It appears that some families of pure Irish blood trasferitesi in the United States have received the visits of their ancestral Banshees.

The current Appel, "Banshee" comes from Gaelic Bean Sidhe (The Bean), meaning "Woman of the Fairies."

In Scotland the Nigh Bean, or "Washerwoman to Ford," he more or less the same characteristics, in the river washing the clothes of those about to die. In Wales the role is played by Gwarach-y-rhybyn a horrible hag alata, also known as "Witch of the drop nose" that haunts the ancient Welsh family.

It is said that at the end of the nineteenth century, a Witch from the drop nose was often seen near the ruins of Pennard Castle, Wales. It was said that searching for the family which, in a sense, was, knowing that the family itself had become extinct.
