A Basic Overview of Elemental Spirits

There are many types of elemental spirits in the realm of mythology and witchcraft. The most important thing to know about these spirits is that each species has a different set of rules and a different moral code. I know working with them may sound cool and fun, but to safely do so, you would need to learn each species' codes of conduct to be both respectful and safe. 

The term spirit is used as an umbrella term in this situation. It could be used to describe ghosts, demons, faeries, nymphs, etc. Anything that embodies the “spirit” of one of the elements: Air, Earth, Water, and Fire. 

We will start with Water Spirits. 

This category would include: 

Merpeople

Sirens

Selkies

Kelpies

Grindylows

Naiads

Camenae

Gwragedd Annwn

Water spirits are mostly known to be tricksters and pulling pranks on humans who interrupt their ways of life. Many of these species have tragic tales of how they came to be. Selkies are shapeshifting seal women that lounge around the coasts of Scotland and Wales. If a man were to steal their fur coat, they would be doomed to a life of land until their coat is given back. Mermaids are typically women that were found to be stowaways on pirate ships. Their legs were tied and they were thrown overboard in hopes of drowning. Many water spirits are deemed “vengeful” towards men (for good reason), which is why the element of water tends to be a Feminine element. 

Our next element will be Air.

This category will include: 

Sylphs

Pixies

Harpies 

There is not a lot of information about strictly “air” elementals. Just because a creature can fly, does not make it an air elemental. For example, Dragons would be considered a fire elemental even though they can fly. Air elementals don't avoid or seek out humans, however they can be tricksters when need be. 

Next is Earth. This will include:

Brownies

Dwarves

Bogles

Dryads

Unicorns

These creatures, while not actively seeking out humans, may help humans in times of need. Please do not take their hospitality for granted and DEFINITELY read up on their customs before attempting to work with them. 

Last would be Fire. This would include:

Dragons

Phoenix

Salamanders 

Angels 

Fire giants

These creatures actively seek solitude. They most likely will not interact with humans, even if called upon, which is why Angel work and Dragon work is so hard to get into.

This is by no means a complete list of elementals, they are just the most common ones of each category. Please let me know if you would like me to do a more indepth post on a specific species.
