| Ace of Mermaid - The Fairy Ring Oracle |
Mermaids are sea fairies,with the upper bodies of lovely woman, the tails of fish, though in early Celtic tales,they were simply sea dwelling maidens.
Sometimes these exotic creatures come to the surface of the sea and sit on the rocks near the shore combing their beautiful hair,
The mermaid is an enchantress, a seductive siren with a sweet voice, but her songs lure ships onto the rocky coasts of Scotland and Cornwall
They take the souls of drowned sailors to the bottom of the sea by the mermaid where they keep them in lobster pots.
Anyone who falls asleep on the beach is in danger of being taken by the mermaid to live with her in her underwater palace.

The earliest stories of mermaids date from around 5000 B.C.E and sailors have been reporting sightings ever since. Alexander the Great captured two mermaids with skin as white as snow and hair that came down to their feet.
Another mermaid was washed ashore in fifteenth-century Holland and became a maidservant. Belief in mermaids was still widespread in coastal areas of Britain in the nineteenth century, and as recently as 1947 an eighty-year-old fisherman from the Isle of Muck claimed he had seen a mermaid near the shore, combing her hair.
There are many tales of marriages between mermaids and human men. Mermaids make good wives and caring mothers.
However, they are usually unwilling to leave their watery home, and men in love with mermaids have to resort to subterfuge.
If her magical cap, belt, or comb is hidden, she is unable to leave the land, but as soon as she finds it, she will return to the sea,leaving her husband and children without a second thought.
Mermaids may derive from such ancient goddesses as Aphrodite, who was born from the foam of the sea and ride to the shore in a seashell. In early astrology, her mirror was the emblem that represented the planet Venus
