Creating a 'Living' Elemental
Notice: This is quite a bit of information to consume, so please read it very well until you fully understand itand keep it at hand before you attempt to create an elemental.

   One can create a thoughtform and infuse it with emotional energy.  This creates what is called an
artifical elemental or a familiar.  Its purpose is to serve as a watcher, a guard, a messenger, or a companion.  You may or may not be able to physically see it, but either way, you will be ABLE to sense it.  DO NOT create an artifical elemental that you do not need.  If you create one and think you have failed, you are likely to be wrong.  The last thing you want to do is create an elemental and not realise it.  Be responible for your actions. 

   Your element should be in the correct color of its purpose and element.  It is up to you to decide what element your artifical elemental will be made up of- it should suit you and your purpose. 

   Once you have decided your color and element, you should decide on the shape of the artifical elemental.  It is easiest to use an animal form that you are familiar with.  (If you have a totem animal, that would be ideal!)

   Now lets begin creating the elemental.  Visualize a ball of light in the color you have choosen, which should correspond to your element also, glowing before you.  Allow it to take the form you wish it to be.  (Example: If you want it to be an Earth Elemental, which would be green, and I wanted it to be in the form of a lizard, I would visualize a green ball of light before me which is taking the form of a lizard.  You understand?!) 

   The artifical elemental is now created!

   You should communicate with your elemental telpathically.  THis means you simply have to
think instead of speaking to your elemental and then the elemental will respong to you in the same way.  Your first step should be to name your elemental.  The first name that comes to mind the first time you speak to your elemental is the name you should use.  When you decide the name... say it aloud or think it:

"I name you (say elemental name)!"

   Once this is done, you should tell your elemental why he/she was created and what their purpose is.  Should they stand as a physical guard?  Warn you if their is a problem?  Pass a message physcially to someone?  Make their purpose very clear.  You may now communicate freely with your elemental as much as you want, and keep it around as long as you want.

   Remember that an elemental is just as responsible to keep as any other ordinary pet.  Keep track of it.  You may wish to use the "genie in a bottle" to keep your elemental in a safe/protected area.  It will also be easier to know where he/she is.  You could use an empty shoe-box or something to keep as a "home" for your elemental.  Draw a symbol of what element you used to create your artifical elemental.  Tell your elemental telepathically to use this as space for a home. 

   Should you no longer need the elemental, reverse the process you used to create it.  First visualize the creature before you, then see it become an ordinary ball of color light again, and then draw the energy back into yourself by simply inhailing deeply.
