Blessings Trinity,

GAIA:

You certainly have every right to call yourself whatever you like --

But i'd like to (respectfully) ask you to consider the following:

DEFINITIONS FOR "ELMENTAL" and "ELEMENTALS":

"A primitive non-human and nnon-material entity, of the nature of one of
hte four Elements. The term is also used for a human thought-form which
, spontaneously by strong emotion or deliberately by mental effort, is
split off from its human originator and acqwuired temporary
quasi-independent existence. "Created elementals" of the latter kind
canbe given healing work to do, they are also sometimes used maliciously
for psychic persecution."

(Janet and Stewart Farrar, "The Witches' Bible", p 320)

Elemental- A spirit formed of one of the elements. The 5 elementals are
salamanders (fire), sylphs (air), undines (water), gnomes (earth), and
spirit (akasha).

(Pagan-Wiccan Dictionary, http://onespiritx.tripod.com/dict05.htm
<http://onespiritx.tripod.com/dict05.htm>

* * * *

Elementals: "Low-level spirits that personify the four ELEMENTS -
EArth, Air, Fire and Water. The termalso is applied to Nature Spirits,
which are said to exist in all things in nature, such as animals,
insects, birds, roks and plants. Ruled by devas or archangels (called
in modern Witchcraft the "Lords of the Watchtowers", the guardians or
the MIghty Ones) elementals serve as the life force and may be summoned
by withces to assist in magick, such as weather control...."

(Rosemary Ellen Guiley, "The Encyclopedia of Witches and Witchcraft" p
111.)

* * * *

The Elementals are generally said to be:

Earth - Gnomes

Air - Sylphs

Water - Undines

Fire - Salamanders

(for more on this, please see Starhawk's "The Spiral Dance", Table of
Correspondences, beginning on page 251)

So, Perhaps you are a Solitary Practitioner who works with Elementals???

Blessed Be - Gaia
