#cunningman
Across folk belief in Ireland and Scotland many witches, cunning folk and mná feasa were thought to have learned their healing skill from the Daoine Maithe or fairies. Scotland's Andro Man is a famous example, claiming the fairy queen taught him to be a cunningman.

Manifestations of the created world are everywhere. Groves considered special, historical places with an aura, your local healer who cut roots at certain times, the cunningman who knows a charm against bad dreams, even village smiths whose arts form the ore into the desired metal.
#Febchantment Day 20

Yesterday was about big ways magic has influenced the world, so today I want to know about *small* ways.

Tell me about the mundane everyday places magic shows up - e.g. in household tools, common slang, certain locations everyone knows to avoid...

ANYWAY. Did some writing today, to make up missing yesterday due to hair appointments and housework. Yes, yes. A glamorous life indeed, I know. Tomorrow I get to tackle the litterbox and shave my dog's feet. Try to contain your envy!

I'm a huge geek: bring up Tolkien, World of Darkness, other trrpgs, The Witcher, or superhero comics and I'll talk your ear off.

Finally, I'm a Norse/ Germanic Heathen, runesmiðr, and chaos/ceremonial magician.
Working on being your friendly neighborhood Cunningman.

Gandalf, for most of his existence in the Third Age, is a loveable curmudgeon. A cantankerous cunningman and hedge wizard.
