5 Elemental Spirits in Mythology: Salamanders, Undines, Sylphs, and Gnomes

[@mythxhunter]

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?

[@SAlcocer12]

Probably a Sylph

[@JarrellHenderson-gh1kl]

Come on man" isn't there a elemental spirit for the element of Lightning. I mean honestly, why does everyone always forget about that element !!!

[@AllanTanui]

No I wouldn't

[@justinjohn6211]

Falling for a spirit is Forbidden. It's a crime in both our realms. I'd rather not.

[@indiigo_chilld_]

Being an Aquarius aligns me with the air elementals so I would probably choose that due to the similarities in character

[@johnsinclair3976]

In Ritual Magic, they often use the 4 Elemental Kings: Ghob (Earth) Niksa (Water) Paralda (Air) Djin (Fire)

[@robertrdbrooks7658]

Awesome video, a breath of fresh air. Thank You ☆

[@mythxhunter]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@aytboi6050]

I known these 4 spirits before but i didnt know theres a 5th one. I guess you learn everyday 😂 Good video btw. It feels like your getting good at your editing. Keep up my man.

[@mythxhunter]

Thanks man!

[@Fenrir-cf5rt]

Apparently, not a "practitioner of the ways then".

[@veronagrey6313]

LOVE YOUR VIDS AND YOUR VOICE !!!

[@JoshMashburn.5674]

I enjoyed the first video u sent, that i found, excellent work

[@mythxhunter]

Awesome, thank you!

[@davidschuc]

It should be pointed out that Norse mythology includes dwarves as an independent and separate entity from the gnomes. Though they do share many of the same traits.

[@mythxhunter]

Youre absolutely right

[@xochiltmichellebermudez1960]

What are the differences?

[@fantasy-writing-v5z]

Gnomes: Earth⛰️ Sylphs: Air🌬️ Salamanders: Fire🔥 Undine: Water💧 ♾️: Quintessence/Aether/Spirit💖 BTW do you plan on making a list of the types of nymphs or perhaps the choir of angels in the hierarchy

[@mythxhunter]

Still not sure. But the type of Nymphs sounds a fun video.

[@fantasy-writing-v5z]

@@mythxhunter oh yeah do enough research and you’ll be amazed how many types of nymphs their are, speaking of list any idea when you videos on the types of mage or types of magic will be out because I’m dying to see those

[@mythxhunter]

@@fantasy-writing-v5z Yes, the script is finished, but it still needs to be proofread. It might take a bit longer since I'm quite busy with work. This video was actually supposed to be posted last Tuesday, but I ended up posting it today because I didn't have enough time. I'm really sorry about the delay! But don't worry, the video about magic is coming along!

[@fantasy-writing-v5z]

@@mythxhunter okay I understand take your time I can be patient I’m just glad to hear it’s coming real soon

[@BabalonNuit]

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.

[@DERSmashbear]

It's true, one time I farted and the fart actually hung out for a few days and taught me magic before it flew away to find its friends

[@justinjohn6211]

I am studying on something recently. I may need your husband's expertise on something. How can I get in touch with him?

[@2indaPink]

Farting salamanders quite interesting

YES 💯 Elementals are Real, I am a Shaumaness 🌹 and Have Encountered many Beings, Some I have encountered haven't been identified, My Husband was a Non Believer,We had an encounter during the night that he will Never forget, and he will never deny there Existence 🙏

[@mythxhunter]

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?

[@jodytharp1096]

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 😳

[@juanhaines7295]

I love videos like these.

[@mythxhunter]

Thank you. I'm glad you liked it 😊

[@SukoYote]

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.

[@mythxhunter]

I wonder if Sylphs are the most social elemental out of the 4.

[@SukoYote]

@@mythxhunter From what I can assess, yes. Because I didn't address any particular type.

[@Shashu_the_little_Voidling]

@@mythxhunter Air is often said to be the most social/communicative element, so probably yes

[@amanitamuscaria7500]

i saw four gnomes....exactly as you would expect, but no colour.....sort of not quite there. But I saw them.

[@mythxhunter]

No colour like transparent or...? its sounds interesting

[@amanitamuscaria7500]

@@mythxhunter it was weird. But they were defo there. To my shame, I hid under the covers.

[@KagroshTV]

thx!!

[@26snoopy82]

Where did you find your info on gnomes?

[@mythxhunter]

Theres actually a lot of books with gnomes in it but i mostly found it from Paracelsus books

[@fantasy-writing-v5z]

I personally believe their are two types of gnomes 1. The little fairy men 2. The elemental earth spirits

[@mythxhunter]

Hm. I wonder if dwarves can be considered as Earth spirit as well?

[@kevinjimenez5382]

​yes dwarves can be consider ... As practitioner of the craft @@mythxhunter

[@fantasy-writing-v5z]

@@mythxhunter and by spirit you mean fairy then yes they are considered a type of fairy

[@meg2249]

I remember watching a KZbin 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’.

[@karlandrewdemetillo9691]

In anime, Salamander portrays as a lizard. For Nature, are druids.

[@mythxhunter]

whats your favorite anime with elemental spirits?

[@RiverSprite30]

Every culture sees the elements differently. Hell, Chinese traditional medicine talks about 5 elements. Ayurvedic philosophy in India only has 3 elements.

[@mythxhunter]

Thats interesting. I love how cultures and traditions influence this kind of stuff. Its like having a food with different flavors.

[@ApollonianShy18]

Doshas arent same as elements.. or are they? I dont think so...

[@RiverSprite30]

@@ApollonianShy18 in Western mythology, in most, the four elements come together to make up the human being, where Akash (spirit) (the fifth element) enters reality. Ayurveda has a similar philosophy. So yes.

[@ApollonianShy18]

@@RiverSprite30 ahm but still ik 4 ex my dosha s vatta - s both air & ether? Is it itz own element? Athair?? Or what??

[@BabalonNuit]

Perhaps you have forgotten the tattvas. There are the tattvas of Earth, Air, Fire, and Water, with Akasha as the fifth. In total there are 36 tattvas.

[@MSTControlCenter]

What's the difference between these elemental beings and the animal totem?

[@mathtoffee4020]

Did you learn nothing from the Spiderwick Chronicles? Know to much you get took!

[@indiigo_chilld_]

You sound so much like Akwafina

[@t.c.talks.6242]

Are sylphs the elementals in ridick?

[@mythxhunter]

I believe the show drew inspiration from elemental spirits, even naming their world 'Quintessa,' which seems to reference the fifth element, quintessence.

[@t.c.talks.6242]

@@mythxhunter I was thinking about that, just like the little fire salamander from frozen 2. Just a lot of references to call on

[@DANINJUNE]

Air also = metal

[@SirenaReign]

@@mythxhunter Merlin can help with that. See videos on him or check out Jenny from Starseed Academy, She talks alot about the wizards and elemental abilities and gifts the fae realm of Avalon had and what life was like back in those times on earth. 😊

[@524ti]

My birth element is fire, does it mean i can use fire magic?

[@SirenaReign]

You can call forth and ask to work with any elemental you wish not just fire. I’m a Leo sun but my Soul element is Water. You will need a reading of your Akashic Records to find out what Soul element you are but I say trust your own intuition and go with what feels the most comfortable and natural for you. ❤

[@MartinVasilev-kn6mw]

I have a gnome attached to me

[@mythxhunter]

but why? is it a good thing or bad thing? did something happened?

[@channeler231]

I am a healer and i have a god relation with undines because i love ro take long showers and everytime someone is nasty to me they suffer a small flooding of water a punishment from my undines friends ❤❤❤❤

There is NO.."mystery" to the 5th, at least to "practitioners of the old ways"!

[@SnakePlissken98]

There's an element you're probably forgetting about and that's lightning. Earth Fire Water Air Lightning Quintessence/Aether/Spirit

[@MdTriki]

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..

[@mythxhunter]

Noted! Thank you for the suggestions 😊

[@Parveen_D]

Sylphs are called Ushas or Prana in the Vedas.

[@mythxhunter]

Ushas and Prana sounds nice.

[@mythxhunter]

But why do I feel like I heard Prana before. I wonder if its been mentioned on modern stories or shows.

[@Parveen_D]

@@mythxhunter Wilhelm Reigh called Prana "Orgonenenergie" Prana is mostly used in yoga breath exercises.

[@veronagrey6313]

Seems like the 7 Dwarves are Gnomes then

[@mythxhunter]

Dwarves and Gnomes have so many in common. It makes me wonder sometimes if they really are different kinds of Creatures.
