Considering I'm a nordic shaman, I'm working towards making things dealing with the paranormal, supernatural, and the occult my profession.
I gotta say, every sing;e experience I've had, has been completely awesome.
I'm sorry, you're a what now?
Tell me, just what is the difference between a pixie and an imp? And how does one go about summoning elementals?
Norse Shaman(only way I can even remotely describe what I am, plus it has a nice ring to it)
and thats a very good question, to me, there really isn't that much of a difference between a pixie and an imp. I just use the two terms since people generally know what I'm talking about.
The only thing I've ever seen come close to what I can describe as an imp, is a small two-foot tall brownish creature, leathery looking skin, likes to play games and generally @#$% with you. Only ever saw one of these things, 2am I was watching the repeat of Adult Swim, catch something out of the corner of my eye. I turn and look to see what it is, theres a little brown thing staring at me from around the corner, then it began to play a game of "peek-a-boo" with me, while I just stared with a "holy crap this is awesome" type grin on my face. It peeked around and disappeared from view for like 10 minutes before it stopped completely.
As for a pixie, I'm not really sure, never encountered one myself, at least not that I'm aware.
Summoning elementals is a little retarded, there really is no one way to go about doing it, since throughout the ages a lot of people have done different things.
The one way I've actually read on how to summon an elemental, aside form your usual ritual, with candles, incense and crap like that, you have to prove yourself to the elements. For fire, for instance, they suggest you brave a burning house, in order to tame fire.
Yeah, I haven't tried summoning elementals, as I'm not stupid enough to walk into a burning house yelling idiotic crap like "I've bested you fire" or something equally silly.
However, I have come across a couple of elementals, one was in July(I think, it was summer). I tend to go out around the full moon, makes any chance of running across something paranormal that little bit better, and with the right weather conditions, I don't have to worry about having a flashlight on all the time.
Anyway, I was out with a group of friends, we had decided to go to a place called The Children's Garden at about 1am, the garden is located on the grounds of my university near the St Joe River. We had walked around and came to a gazebo they have. We stood around for bit when I got a odd "unwelcome" tingle in my spine. Those types of tingles, in fact tingles in my spin or across my body don't happen unless there is something supernatural going on, large enough to the point where I can sense it, and I'm like a brick, but I'm getting better about picking up on things.
Anyway, we start walking out of the pavilion towards the river, I stop as the tingle gets a lot more tingly, almost to the point where it feels like the pins and needles of a sleeping limb kind of tingle. I'm just looking around at this point, I stop at a tree, and I see this large shadow, looks like a shadow from a person, just emerge from the tree itself, the thing was about 10 feet tall and just stays there against the tree. The other people in my group are looking at this as well asking what the hell it is.
After a couple of minutes we decide to call it a night, as whatever is out there doesn't really want us to be there. The tingle subsides as we hit the parking lot, and the most I could figure whatever it was we saw was a nature elemental, tree spirit, tree guardian, whatever, that didn't like someone in the group, or just didn't want us there.
