Symbols - What does heaven look like
Elf
An elf is the Spirit being of a non flowering plant – principally ferns, and fungi. It is thus the personification of a plant spirit being.
It is worth adding that the archetypal image – the template – that we have built up for this type of spirit being is so universal now, that it I presented back to us by the spirit world in visions. Thus we ‘see’ what we expect to see and the image is constructed for us as we would expect – even down to the pointy ears and elongated body.
