[Eng+Spa] Fairy Day + Día de las Hadas

In the calendar there are all kinds of celebration dates, I have reviewed for just over three years such ephemeris of #History to accompany my daily record of my daily #life (life that is on many occasions so simple and calm that it would be in boring extreme for many people), but it always happens that there are things that surprise me, such as today's date. Before that, let me make a very brief comment about my day, since yesterday the electricity and the Internet signal have been seriously failing, there was a failure in my brother's cell phone, and we had to restore it to factory conditions, that's resetting the cell phone forces us to have to download again the apps that we did not have backed up for some reason.

In general, despite the service failures (a daily thing in my current Venezuela) and the annoying event with my cell phone, it can be said that I have a calm day. So, there's little more to tell, and it's better to comment on the event in question, which is ultimately about #fantasy characters that have been represented in different cultures throughout human history. Although the idea of benevolent, playful and slightly childish #Fairies, is a very typical cultural product of European culture, and from there it spread to countries that were colonies of European powers of past centuries.

En el calendario hay toda clase de fechas de celebración, yo he revisado por poco más de tres años tales efemérides de la #Historia para acompañar mi registro diario de mi #vida cotidiana (vida que resulta en muchas ocasiones tan simples y calmada que sería en extremo aburrido para bastante gente), pero siempre sucede que hay cosas que me sorprenden, tal como la fecha de hoy. Antes de eso, deja que haga un muy breve comentario de mi día, desde ayer ha estado fallando seriamente la electricidad y la señal de Internet, se presentó una falla en el celular de mi hermano y tuvimos que restablecerlo a condiciones de fábrica, eso de resetear el celular nos obliga a tener que descargar de nuevo las apps que no teníamos respaldadas por alguna razón.

En general, a pesar de las fallas de servicios (cosa cotidiana en mi #Venezuela actual) y el evento molesto con el celular, se puede decir que tengo un día tranquilo. Así que hay poco más que contar y es mejor que pase a comentar sobre la efeméride en cuestión, que a fin de cuentas trata sobre unos personajes de #fantasia que han estado representadas en distintas culturas a lo largo de la historia humana. Aunque la idea de las #Hadas benevolentes, juguetonas y ligeramente infantiles, es un producto cultural muy propio de la cultura europea, y de allí se propagó a los países que fueron colonia de las potencias europeas de siglos pasados.

Today 'Fairy Day' is celebrated, although there is also the long version of this name as 'International Fairies Day', adding the word international to the celebration is to differentiate its scope a bit from what it had when it began to be observed. This celebration begins as the proposal of an American artist, Jessica Galbreth, born Toledo (Ohio, 1974) and who, as far as I checked, she still lives in that same state and has her workshop there. She has different artistic works, but I think she stands out for her #drawings and #illustrations. Her #art is interesting, and she draws her inspiration from fantasy in general.

Galbreth has among his works many representations of these spirits of nature, the Fairies, in which he highlights the strong influence of Celtic culture in the creation of the image of these imaginary creatures, born in medieval Europe, also representing their strong bond with nature, but softening the cruelty that could be found in the oldest representations and leaving rather an air of sophistication, joy, elegance and a certain fresh and youthful charm.

Hoy se celebra el ‘Día de las Hadas’, aunque se tiene también la versión larga de este nombre como ‘Día Internacional de las Hadas’, eso de agregarle la palabra internacional a la celebración es para diferenciar un poco su alcance con respecto al que se tenía cuando comenzó a ser observado. Esta celebración comienza siendo la propuesta de una artista norteamericana, Jessica Galbreth, nacida Toledo (Ohio, 1974) y que, hasta donde revisé, sigue viviendo en ese mismo estado y tiene su taller allí. Tiene distintos trabajos artísticos, pero creo que se destaca por sus #dibujos e #ilustraciones. Su #arte es interesante y bebe su inspiración de la fantasía en general.

Galbreth tiene entre sus obras muchas representaciones de estos espíritus de la naturaleza, las Hadas, en los que resalta la fuerte influencia de la cultura celta en la creación de la imagen de estas criaturas imaginarias, nacidas en la Europa medieval, representando también su fuerte vínculo con la naturaleza, pero suavizando la crueldad que se podría encontrar en las representaciones más antiguas y dejando más bien un aire de sofisticación, alegría, elegancia y cierto encanto fresco y juvenil.

Personally, it caught my attention when I reviewed that according to Celtic traditions, these creatures could be observed during twilight, when the day wanes to give way to the darkness of night, but also on very specific dates, such as the recent solstice a few days ago, which would be the so-called 'Beltane', which in the Catholic tradition, and particularly in the Spanish tradition (which is the one I have in my country), conforms to the celebration of the eve of San Juan, which I think it's just today... Catholic #Fairy? This is funny. (Personal laugh)

I like fantasy. When I was young, I liked to read it when I had free time, and nowadays, I am entertained by reviewing adventure and fantasy novels of Asian origin, which despite the fact that they focus on young audiences, I (who am not young) I find them entertaining. So, I also have some heart space and memories for these endearing characters of diminutive size, great magical abilities, childlike personalities, and endless energy.

Ok, this would be all for today, since I have to close and publish before the next unexpected power cut (resigned laugh) anyway, I wish you are well and that we can read each other again another time.

En lo personal, me llamó la atención cuando revisé que para las tradiciones célticas, estas criaturas se podrían observar durante los crepúsculos, cuando el día decae para dar paso a la oscuridad de la noche, pero también en fechas muy específicas, tal como el reciente solsticio de hace unos días, que sería el llamado ‘Beltane’, que en la tradición católica, y particularmente en la tradición española (que es la que tengo en mi país), se ajusta a la celebración de la víspera de San Juan, que creo que es el día de hoy justamente.

A mí me gusta la fantasía, de joven me gustaba leerla cuando tenía tiempo libre, y hoy en día me entretiene revisar novelas de aventuras y fantasía de origen asiático, que a pesar de que se enfocan en público juvenil, yo (que no soy joven) las encuentro entretenidas. Así que también tengo cierto espacio de mi corazón y memorias para estos entrañables personajes de diminuto tamaño, grandes habilidades mágicas, personalidades infantiles y energía inagotable.

Ok, esto sería todo para hoy, ya que tengo que cerrar y publicar antes del siguiente corte inesperado de electricidad (risa resignada) en fin, que te deseo que tú estés bien y que nos podamos leer de nuevo en otra oportunidad.

Son personajes maravillosos, pero como todas las cosas, han suavizado la historia para hacerla más digerible. Es una costumbre con la que no soy afín, cambiar la historias al gusto de una época en concreto es un poco como traicionar el pasado.

Aunque también hay historias clásicas de cuentos infantiles que son más bien como cuentos de terror :)

Oh, that's cool! I didn't know that today is Fairy Day. I love Jessica Galbreth's artwork, especially her drawings and illustrations. It's great that she started this celebration, and it's interesting to see how it has expanded to become International Fairies Day.

I didn't know that there is a day to celebrate the fairies! Nice to know.

Sorry to hear about the continuous problems in your place of living.

I was actually surprised when I saw the list of celebrations for today, because I didn't know there was a day for Fairies either :)

As for the problems, well, one gets used to living as best one can :) after all, I'm relatively well off compared to millions of other people in my own country.

Is there any way to recreate the Venezuelan way of life as a fairy tale?
I think I will set myself such a challenge to publish it in @es-literatos.
My fraternal greetings to my friend @pedrobrito2004

¿Hay alguna manera de recrear el modo de vivir del venezolano como un cuento de hadas?
Creo que me impondré semejante reto para publicarlo en @es-literatos
Recibe un saludo fraternakl mi amigo @pedrobrito2004

Acá pensando, puede que nos llevemos mejor con un toque de realismo mágico, que es como que mas común en nuestra literatura :)
Pero, suena interesante plantear el hacer un Cuento de Hadas con alguna cosa de la realidad venezolana.
