If you were to look at different cultures around the world, their are quiet a few that have a belief in what you may call nature spirits or the elementals. For example the Norwegian culture is surrounded by myth and the gnomes. The Hawaiian speak of the Menehune or the little people that live in the forests. In the African culture they are referred to as Yowahoos.
The Findhorn community that was founded on the windswept and barren sand dunes in the northern part of Scotland back in the seventies learned how to cooperate with the nature spirits and devas to create an area where wonderful plants, trees, flowers and vegetables were grown and was turned into a thriving community.
When I was a child, I spent my days in an oak filled canyon with a running stream. Even though I was by myself, I never felt alone. I have memories of speaking with different entities or spirits. I never felt afraid but instead, I felt protected. Now you might say that it was simply the work of a child’s imagination. But, I challenge that, with saying that as a child you have yet to place the limitations and blocks that are placed on you as you get older and so you are able to see and experience what adults cannot. As I grew up and spent less time in the canyon, losing the freedom to play, and with the rigors of schoolwork, I began to have a much more structured life, and sadly those memories faded.

I think most of us have had the experience of walking in the country and having the feeling that there was something else there, or being with a dog who intently looking at something when we can’t see what it is. I for one cannot just casually throw these feeling aside and claim them to be only my “imagination”. Our imagination has gotten us to where we are as humans and I strongly feel that we are missing a large part of the unseen world because we choose not to “believe” in it. Imagine if it were possible to work with these unseen nature sprits to create a more beautiful world.
A good number of people have a belief in angels. Nature sprits are believed to be part of the angelic energies. The Devas, the Elementals, the Nature Spirits exist in a realm that is immediately beyond the physical and help to watch over and protect the energies of the non-physical world. Every part of the world is alive and carries an energy. We humans, in general, are not able to see things if they don’t move in the same vibrational pattern of movement that our eyes are used to seeing. But individuals who are clairsentience have the privilege of being able to appreciate these subtle energies and perhaps communicate in profound ways that could have a huge impact on the way we live in the natural world. Working together could bring about a tremendous change in the way we do things.
Respecting the nature spirits and accepting their guidance could lead us to cooperating in ways that we have never even dreamed of, learning to listen, and feel with our hearts.
