According to Paracelsus:
"The Elementals are not spirits because they have flesh, blood and bones; they live and reproduce; they speak, act, sleep, wake up and, consequently, cannot be called, properly, spirits. These beings occupy a place among Men and Spirits, are similar to both; they resemble men and women in their organization and form and resemble spirits in the swiftness of their locomotion"
Philosophia Occulta, translated by Franz Hartman.
The occultist calls these creatures composite, referring to the composition, mixture of spirit and matter.
Nature Spirits combine spirit and matter resulting in a Being that is neither spirit nor matter. They are composed of a substance which may be called spiritual matter or the ether of occultists and philosophers.
Fairies. Fascinating creatures... For most people, fairies are characters from ancient tales, nothing but fantasy. However, as the science of myths teaches, the imagination is not exalted by anything and not infrequently, at the origin of the fable, there is the fantastic reality of long-forgotten memories.
For millennia, in cultures all over the world, Occultists have taught: Just as visible Nature is inhabited by an infinite number of living beings, also in the Invisible, in the astral and spiritual plane of this World, unsuspected creatures live - called Elementals.
There are four categories of these beings who identify themselves with the essence of the four physical elements of all things - EARTH, FIRE, WATER AND AIR.
The Gnomes dominate the earth, the Salamanders, the fire, the Undines or Naiads - the waters and the Sylphs - are the lords and ladies of Ares. Sylphs, these are the arcane entities that are at the origin of the fairy myth.
There is some disagreement among masters of the occult sciences about the physiology of Elementals.
Paracelsus says that they are not spirits because they have flesh, blood and bones, reproduce, speak, act, sleep, wake up, LIVE AND DIE.
DESPITE THE ELEMENTAL SIMILARIES they are not human beings BUT they are not spirits either.
They are similar to men and women in their anatomical and metabolic aspect - on the other hand, like spirits, they are invisible to the standard reach of the human optic nerve and extremely fast in their locomotion.
This line of thought considers that Elementals, like fairies, are basically made of a substance called ether.
It is not a question here of pharmaceutical ether, of chemical substance. The ether mentioned here is a reality so complex that it would take a book or an entire documentary just to talk about it.
The idea of the alchemical ether that constitutes the World of Elementals is something like the structure of a morphogenic field - of life, forms and beings that, due to its peculiar wave frequency - or vibration - propitiates the genesis of bodies that are much more subtle, less dense in relation to the predominant matter in the Kingdom of nature inhabited by Humanity.
That said, the Elementals would then be - ethereal beings in all their fullness. It means that they do not suffer conflicts between different support bodies to maintain their existence in the earthly environment - as occurs with the human being.
In fact, the human creatures, sons of Adam, often lives divided between the requests of the physical body, the passions of the astral body, the reasons of the mind and the Truth of the Spirit or of the Higher Self.
In practice, the UNITARY ontological complexion - that is, the state of being ONE in itself - guarantees little physical decadence to Elementals over time.
Therefore, they live so much. The average life expectancy of elementals is between 300 and a thousand years and the longest lived are precisely the Sylphs, the elementals of Air, the Fairies.
The Elemental has only one principle or body, the etheric body, made of ether, in which it lives.
The ether, in occultism, is a spiritual essence; in the four Elements, ether is the essence. There are many ethers just as there are different families of Nature Spirits of the Elements.
Being made of a single substance, the ether, the Elementals do not suffer from friction and do not suffer from conflict, dialectic... between vehicles; therefore, in practical terms, Elementals suffer little wear and tear on their bodies day by day; their biological functions have little chance to suffer harms; therefore, they live a long time, reaching advanced ages.
Finally, if a human being - a Mage - wants to dominate the elementals, if he wants to have access to such creatures and command them, putting them at his service, this human being must prove that he has complete control of the elements to which these belong those entities. Teaches the master Eliphas Levy:
Who wants to discover the treasures of the Earth,
cannot fear the caves.
If he wants the powers of fire,
he doesn't back down from the flames.
Seekers of sea secrets are not afraid of ocean storms.
And the powers that inhabit the Air,
only respect those who seek the heights.
