Elementals are otherwise known as Nature Spirits who are attached to a particular element. Fairies, Pixies, Water Sprites, Imps, Salamander and Mermaids, are a few examples of beings that belong to the Elemental realm that most people will have heard of from folklore tales and childhood books.

Elementals are sent to safeguard planet Earth. However at this time on Earth they are struggling to do their job as humans continue to pollute and destroy environments through their actions.

Elementals reside all over the world. Their presence is what gives many of the great wildernesses of the world that magical feeling that is hard to describe until one has felt it for themselves.

They are the reason one feels more peaceful and relaxed if sitting under a tree, by a river, on a beach or in a grass meadow. Scotland for example, is often described as a magical country by locals and visitors alike. Vast numbers of Elementals of different groups reside here.

You do not need to go far to find Elementals no matter where you are in the world. A plant in your garden will have Fairies living on it, a tree will have a tree spirit within. The Elementals surround us everyday.

Some of you may be able to see them, some of you can hear them, others will sense or feel their presence. We all have this gift within us it is just a case of opening ourselves up to use it.

Those attuned to the natural world can connect with them for guidance, healing, and wisdom as they hold deep knowledge of the land, seas, winds and flames. Elemental Beings can assist in spiritual awakening, Earth healing, and personal transformation, helping those who seek their presence with an open heart and pure intention.

Fairies – The most well-known of the elemental spirits, fairies are guardians of nature and plant life. They are associated with flowers, trees, and meadows, and they help maintain the vibrational energy of the land.

Sylphs – These are the elemental spirits of Air, dwelling in the winds, clouds, and open skies.

They provide grounding energy, strength, and stability, helping those who seek to deepen their connection with the land.

Guardian Elementals are Elementals who have detached from their elements and agreed to live within the aura of a human as a guide. Not all humans have a guardian elemental. However if you are reading these words Alphedia’s guardian Fairy Eldima says that you have one around you. You can have more than one Guardian Elemental depending on your life path and spiritual mission.

 You can connect with your Guardian Elementals by asking them to make themselves known to you and just by talking to them and believing in their existence they will be delighted and become more involved in your life. Guardian Elementals are particularly good in helping you to find true love because the more we love the more negativity and fear disappears from our lives.
