I recently corresponded with a goblin named Hurney– through channeler, Jenny Smedly on her website:

Here is our dialogue–  Hurney sounds like a really awesome Being! :-)

Ask a Faerie: What’s a Goblin’s Day Job

June 14, 2010 – Posted by Jenni

A question was asked through the “Ask a Faerie” page of this blog.  The author has asked for their question to be published to help others with the same question:

Name: Lisa

Contact: Hurney

Subject: What is a Goblin’s Daily Job ?

Message: Hi Hurney, ! It’s an honor to meet you and to get to ask you a question–and I thank you a great deal for reaching out to us humans like this– God Bless you! I was wondering what types of works and missions the Goblins do for Mother Earth- and animals, etc. They don’t mention it in those faery books. I think in a meditation I had for a few split seconds, I saw one of you guys — but in meditation I am very Attention Deficit Disorder…lol, so I need more practice. Thanks for your anticipated reply hugs to you lisa

Response:

Dearest Lisa,

There are many of us Goblins, and although some of our kind are much different — gleefully mischievous, and playful — there are those, like me, that are hard working, and strong.  We take what we do seriously, and we never stray from a task, unlike some of our brothers.  There are many shapes and forms of us Goblins, but those that are like me work hard in the mines of Fairydom.  We harvest the metals from the ground and fashion many a tool for ourselves, and our fairy friends and family.  We also fashion weapons and armour, although we hope we never have to see a day that they must be used.  We train hard with our weaponry, in case we need to protect, and serve our friends when, and if they ever become endangered.  We protect and serve your human counterparts who work in the mines of your world, doing whatever we can to protect them, and keep them safe, as your kind has not yet mastered our level of workmanship and safety measures we place in our mines.  When they are needed, we fashion tools such as wands for healing the Earth, or other beings, and we also make plates, spoons, forks, bowls, teapots, and boiler pots for when a feast is in order (although they are not always plentiful here).

Although there are those of us who would rather play, and tease your hair when you’re wanting an answer (or asking a “stupid” question), there are also those of us who work tirelessly to balance the world you know in your mines, and in your forests, with our healing wands and scepters.  You don’t hear of us much, because we would rather work to protect than bother with those who think we are barbarians.  Although we resent that judgement, it would only hurt us to fight back, and so we focus on the more important work we have in our hands.

Thank you for your belief in us.  Your human counterparts are dwindling in their belief of us Fay, but your belief is so much stronger than it has ever been.  In these turbulent times, this is ever important, as we work and strive to protect you, our friends of the North.

Blessings and Peace upon you,
Hurney

That was a great question, Lisa – and a really interesting answer! It sounds like Hurney is one of the guys that folklore sometimes refers to as 'Knockers', who made tapping noises in mines to help friendly miners find ore and to lead them away from danger.

Hurney's answer also reminds me of 'dwarves', and makes me wonder if 'dwarf' is simply another word for his kith. At any rate he sounds like a first class fellow, and it was kind of him to give such a straightforward answer.

You're so welcome everyone!

Hurney was the first Being who replied back- I think he was very touched that someone asked him a question , as I have the impression that Flora the Flower faery tends to get the most questions asked from the contact list.   Jenny Smedly channels these Beings-  she has been communicating with the Faery realm since childhood.   

I was impressed at Hurney and I send him warm thoughts :-)

Witchy Woman, I think Hurney would be honored if you added him in your story :-)
