Elementals

In Esoterism (especially healing schools and schools teaching the arcane arts), Elemental are nature spirits that express themselves as one particular element: earth, air, fire, or water. One of these elements is the primary substance of an Elemental's being and is closely related to where these spirits choose to live. They are invisible to the naked eye. If you are clairvoyant, you may be able to see them. However, having said that, it is possible to learn to see them. Heck... we can even train ourselves to see energy and people's aura with our naked eyes, so what's the big deal with learning to see Elementals right? Anyway, Elementals come in all shapes and sizes; some can even shift shape! They are the most passionate beings you can call upon, and they give very real results. Each type of Elemental has its own set of characteristics, properties, and personalities.


I must however say that not all are good. Some Elementals live on us in a parasitic relationship. Of course, there are also those that would make it symbiotic too. An example of parasitic Elementals are Drug Elementals, Alcohol Elementals and Smoke Elementals. These Elementals reside in the chakras of addicts and they basically control the addict's addiction and cravings such that the addict has no will of his/her own. In healing schools we are taught to feel for their presence and disintegrate such Elementals from the patient's energy bodies and chakras.


Take Smoking for example: 
Smoking elementals are these little curly critters that hang out mostly in the throat chakra. Holes or rips in the chakras allow these elementals to come in in the first place. With a thick coating of these, you'll have troubles beating that smoking habit. The approach in Pranic Healing (different healing schools employ differing methods and techniques) is to energize the area with electric violet to expel the critters and start clearing out your patient's desire for smoking. It can take many treatments for a lifelong smoker. However, having said that, there could also be other issues involved for a smoker, because often the person has had lifetimes in which smoking tobacco was a holy act, a method of connecting with the spiritual realm. Native Americans and people who have had lifetimes as Native Americans can feel an especially strong pull toward tobacco, and it's less of a physical reason for them and more of a metaphysical yearning. But this is another matter all together.




Elementals come in differing sizes and kind. Some religions like Shinto (I believe) also practice worship to Elementals though they call it "Gods". Of course, they are not Gods but spirits of a lesser nature but nevertheless possess supernatural abilities. 


Elementals do appear to clairvoyants and are easy recognizable. Many are claimed to wear clothes and jewelry. Gnomes are dwarfish living in caves and mountains. Sylphs appear as butterflies, undines as waves, and salamanders as lizard-like creatures that frolic in flames.
Anyway, there are generally 4 types of elementals with each type having a ruling class (if class is the right word):

1. Earth elementals - ruling Elemental is the Gnome
2. Air elementals - ruling Elemental is the Sylphs
3. Water elementals - ruling Elemental is the Undine
4. Fire elementals - ruling Elemental is the Salamander

Within each type there are numerous more for example, Earth Elementals comprises of Earth Spirits, Elves, Hamadryads, Pans, Pygmies etc.

"The type of gnome most frequently seen is the brownie, or elf, a mischievous and grotesque little creature from twelve to eighteen inches high, usually dressed in green or russet brown.  Most of them appear as very aged, often with long white beards, and their figures are inclined to rotundity.  They can be seen scampering out of holes in the stumps of trees and sometimes they vanish by actually dissolving into the tree itself." ~ Paracelsus

It is interesting to note that it is possible for an Elemental to be reborn as a human being and vice versa depending on the soul's journey. Remember, we are all energy beings after all. Generally, but not necessarily true, an incarnated Elemental may display such traits:

• Like to play practical jokes.
• Prone to addictions.
• Might have reddish hair and a Celtic appearance (ruddish complexion).
• Love to party.
• Are fiery and passionate.
• Prefer the company of plants and animals to people.
• Can't stand rules or people who abide by them.
• Are reluctant healers or helpers.
• Can easily manifest abundance or the complete opposite.
• Prefer play over hard work.
• Can't stand being indoors very long.
• Prefer not to have clothes on.
• Prefer outdoor jobs such as leading nature hikes, forest rangers, gardening, dog-walking
• Love working with gems, crystals and other stones.
• You have a high degree of creativity.
• Do well in dance, theater, comedy, poetry, publishing, motivational speaking and performance arts.
• Love to laugh, play and be silly.

This however does not mean that anybody displaying such traits was an Elemental in the past life. But there are ways to find out like dropping by "upstairs" to check or through past life regression for example. Note however that there are fakes around that claim to be able to tell your past life. Look, if someone tells you you were Cleopatra, I think you should just walk away, know what I mean.


Well.. that's all about Elementals for the moment...
