Definition of the word good fairy

The term "good fairy" derives from the traditional fairy tale motif of a mystical creature bestowing blessings and good luck upon a protagonist. In the French folk tradition, fairies were commonly believed to be supernatural beings who could bring both good and bad luck to mortals. However, in the literary context of fairy tales, fairies became associated with positive qualities and were referred to as "good fairies." These fairies were often depicted as benevolent and enchanting beings who were capable of aiding heroes and heroines in their quests. The term "good fairy" gained widespread popularity in contemporary culture through Disney's animated adaptations of classic fairy tales, which feature fairies such as Tinker Bell and Ariel's fairy godmother that embody the emblematic qualities of good fairies. The term "good fairy" has since become a common literary and cultural symbol for anyone or anything that brings about positive change and good fortune.
