Modern people every year more and more away from nature, the majority of people are used to get in touch with her only during a short vacation. It becomes more interesting to watch popular film than to take an evening stroll in the Park, it is more interesting to talk on the Internet than to visit and so on. But we should not forget that we ourselves are part of nature and the four elements, and the ancient belief in the spirits of nature and these elements are stored in the experience of generations, because they are still present in our life, because they are life itself.

This happened during the lunar night. Loving couple decided to swim naked in the river. Smiling, they went into the water and swam to the depth. Suddenly she felt that some unknown force to pull her under the water, and began to go to the bottom. The guy was to save her, but I could feel myself begin to sink. Then he began to pray to one's guardian angel. Suddenly it dawned warm white light, it is not known where it came from power, and he for a few minutes, took a girl and got to the beach. Both were saved. When the guy next morning I told this story to his grandmother, which rested in love, she crossed himself and said it Undines wanted to drown a couple, but a guardian angel with God's help saved a boy and a girl. On the question of a young man who Undines, grandmother said: "the nature Spirits, the spirits of the water, you disturbed them moonlit night, when they gather and come to the surface of the water, and nearly paid with his life for it." What kind of spirits are able to destroy man? As bound with them Christian guardian angel? Will try to find answers to these questions.

THE ELEMENTALS IN HISTORY

Among parapsychologists and people engaged in magic, there is an opinion that the spirits of the elements (they are called spirits of nature and elemental - mi) appeared on our planet long before man. They guard the elements and nature since then, how did the world. Legends and stories about nature spirits are the most ancient written sources of different civilizations, and often they had of civilizations, who knew nothing about one another, and, nevertheless, all these stories are similar.

Refer to the magical teachings about item - ly. For the beginning let's quote Paracelsus: "All the elements have the soul and life. The inhabitants of the elements, are called Saganami (elemental). They are not under man, but differ in that do not have an immortal soul. This forces of nature, that is, they produce everything that is attributed to the action of the Nature. They can be called beings, but they are not descended from Adam. They feed on the elements..." Jules Termini the elementals is "real being gifted with life, form, will, and partly by instinct, which carries them along the path of evolution than seeking to bring them to the person..."

Agrippa in his Occult philosophy says that the elementals as no other occult being close to people. He argues that natural spirits are not alien to human passion and desire willing to communicate with people, "one of them live in the forests and groves, other happy, like various animals, domestic and wild, some inhabited by meadows and springs. These different spirits can be called where they would find..."

E. Blavatsky describes the elementals as "create evolved in Four Kingdoms or Elements - Earth, Air, Fire and Water... Kabbalists called Dwarves (elemental spirits of the Earth), Sylphs (Air), Newts (Fire) and Undine (Water)..." According Blavatsky, the spirits of the elements - "All lower invisible beings produced on the fifth, sixth and seventh plans of our earth's atmosphere, all are called elementals - Peri, the Devas, the Jinn, Goblins, Satyrs, Fauns, Elves, Gnomes, Trolls, burrowing, Kobolds, House, Mermaids, Goblins..."

In magic, in addition to the elements investments, allocate elementary than - "different souls perverted, spiteful people who have lost touch with your higher self and lost their former opportunities". Alimentarii have the ability to subdue elemental and, in this case, be the mediums at spiritualistic seances.

Thus, the elementals in the widest sense - endowed living qualities spirits of the four elements

- earth, air, fire and water, which practice magic people can call. Very often the spirits of the elements are called spirits of nature, which, in principle, also true.

COMMUNICATION WITH THE SPIRITS OF THE ELEMENTS

In legends and tales of different Nations passed the secret knowledge about how people can interact with the elementals. In the mystical traditions include a provision according to which there are several types of elementals. Occultists are interested in those, which are by special rituals. Such spirits of the elements can carry both good and evil. According to legends, the other elementals, such as the elves in the UK are quite self-sufficient beings and evocations mages has to be. They protect the environment and protect it - including from man. Such spirits of nature very honors the population of corresponding areas. For example, in Northern Ireland recently workers during the construction of the airport was found a small grave mound elf - Sidhu, who work, who respected the elves, like all the Irish, not dared to touch.

But the great practical value in parapsychology are caused by man and the elementals. In the modern world the secrets of interaction between them and the man remained in the magical traditions of different mystics of the past and present. Many ghosts disturb the inhabitants of some of the houses are elementals generated by the action of any occultist. They will be manifested as long as they are not cast out another occultist.

The call (and in some cases - and creating a) elemental spirits in modern magic simpler than, say, in ceremonial magic Papus. Last prescribes a very long pre-procedure preparation for the rites associated with magical operations on call elementals, complex procedures, inaccessible both his contemporaries and our. Modernist magic (let's call it so) more accessible. But, working with any occult system in this direction, we should remember two important things. First, although the elementals are very small in size, a lot of them, and therefore cause a large number of elementals immediately should not - thin body can significantly deformed as a result of such contact. Secondly, the elementals are not only guardians of the energy of the elements and the nature and source of this energy. Therefore, people have at least a little to prepare for the contact with this energy - spiritually and physically.

Some parapsychologists practice creating small in its energy sector elementals-helpers via reception visualization (in a slightly different form it is used in traditional psychology). In the evening during the waxing moon (preferably in 3 of the first moon day) need to be alone in a room that no one is disturbed, and off the electric light. Light a candle of any color, then relax and, focusing on the flame of a candle, imagine a picture of the result of any of you need your activity or interest to you. Be clear to yourself all the specific details you represent object, mentally merge with it into one. Can imagine the image you created element - La. In 7-10 minutes release this image from your mind to the outside world. Both on physical, and on the subtle plane you projected desired - and after some time it will return to you as a result. If you have created any elemental, he gradually develops, come back to you and will be your assistant in the subtle world.

Faith in elemental as elemental spirits and nature and the possibility of communicating with them existed in the cultures of many civilizations in the past, which is reflected in the contemporary culture of their respective countries now. Not alien to it, and Slavs. The belief in guardian angel protecting children under the age of seven years later and all life on earth)has its roots in ancient pagan past when our ancestors believed in the spirit-Keeper. They believed that people from infancy to seven years has formed his mental body, so it is not sufficiently protected in life. In this period it is protected by a special spirit of the four elements - ele - mental, guardian spirit, which becomes invisible to adult conversations with the child, warns him of the danger in case of its occurrence, acquaints with other friendly elementals.

Often it is represented in the form of a beautiful girl with wings, however, the known and the other forms. For example, warm white light, as was the case above with a pair of bathing the moonlit river, which flows near the village.

THE ELEMENTALS CLOSE

Has long been among the many mystics there was a belief that the elementals can be translated... in human form! Some parapsychologists argue that the spirits of nature live near us as people. They are individuals cheerful, easy going, active, unhampered by heavy labour, which protects nature. Often they can be red-haired and similar to mythological and fantasy creatures, for example, fairies, elves, gnomes. Such spirits of nature are determined to help people in their good aspirations, especially in matters of environmental protection.

Teaching about elementals as elemental spirits and nature is rooted in the distant pagan antiquity. Some postulates was reflected in modern Christian traditions and help people to save the Earth, protecting remaining beautiful world around us.
