    If you were an immortal being, would you give up your immortality to marry an elemental spirit? If so, which elemental spirit would you likely choose?

      Thank you for sharing! Here in my country if someone can see things like spirits. We think of them as someone with their 3rd eye open. Mosr of the time they can see Ghost of dead people and some have really bad experince from it. Is this similar to you or is this different?

      YES Absolutely 💯, I have had many Experiences with Spirits, Elementals ECT...As a Child it really freaked me out,so I shut it down 😭, Years ago I opened back up and Teach Women's Empowerment and Spiritually 🌹🙏 I have had a few Not so good Experiences, One being I Encountered was What we in Northern Michigan,U.S. Call The Northern Michigan DogMan !!! My little Dog a Fearless Chuweenie, was outside 11:30pm for his last potty break for the night and he was Crying,this was unusual for him as he was Fearless! I went outside to see Why and there it was The Northern Michigan DogMan😬 It was Eating Apples off my apple tree about 50 yards away from my Front Door! So Scary 😳

    There is nothing "mythological" about the elementals. They exist. I've even seen one: a salamander (Fire elemental) It was looking at me out of a candle flame. My husband, an alchemist, told me it was there and to go look at it.

    I have seen and communicated with a sylph on my property. I was making it aware of a dump buying land down my road, and I suddenly got a strong feeling of sadness to the point of nearly crying. Hopefully, it informs other elementals of this, and they try stopping the dump.

      I remember watching a TH-cam video describing dwarves/gnomes as being essentially psychopomps (guides of the dead into the underworld/afterlife) and thus relegating them to the earth element due to the belief that the afterlife was essentially and ‘under the ground-deep place’.

    The content is great,I suggest it is better to avoid trying to study higher beings or their interactions with humans as this may mislead people or drive them nuts with unneeded fantasies, grasping the essence of the human spirit is a decent mindset, I also suggest that the gravitational essence that binds the physical and meta-physical elements might be the soul rather then the spirit..
