Hi everyone, I have a few quesitons. Okay, getting right to the cheese, lol, umm...well, when ii meditate, ii call forth the elements like fire, water, earth, air, and spirit. When ii call them to me, ii FEEL them, like ii know they are there. I guess ii am "casting" a circle but not doing anything with them. My trainer, who is a wiccan, has told me one time to call forth one of the elements just for the fun of it, ii called forth wind. Immediatly, the wind hit her hair. Her eyes widdened. She said to call forth the other elements. I said okay. I did......and they responded. She says the gods have "chosen" me to have this gift. She also said that the gods only choose one and until his or her lifetime is over, they chose another one. Is this true? I mean, my father is one of the gods, his name is Apollo, greek god of the sun, music, healing, and prophecy, and whatever else he is because he doesn't brag about what he is can anyone help me with knowing if its true about me weilding the elements, or is it just me, because she was there when it happened thanks so much you guys | |

Moderator Posts: 318 | If I were you, I would seriously examine your trainer's credentials. It's not legal to have a religious teacher work that close to an individual without parental supervision and permission, and this woman seems like she may be off her rocker a bit. And I mean no offense by that, but as far as I (or any sane human I have met) know(s), 'Gods' (I use the term loosely as a respect to the ideas of what Deity is) don't "choose" people to weild elements. To answer yoru question, yes, meditating with elements is possible. With very much practice, meditating, and psychic work a skilful person may even be able to manipulate elements. But I am skeptical that Divinity chooses one person to invest super-natural powers into. That's just what I have come to believe. After all, we are all 'Children of the Gods', so to speak. | |

She is my healing trainer. I am supposed to learn healing and it has gone very well actually. She's a high priestess. So ii think she knows what she's saying Well ii talked to Apollo about it and he didnt answer so ii mean its weird. I am the son of Apollo. I'm not saying that ii am a "child" of the gods. I'm saying that ii am a demigod. Half god, half human. Yeah crazy, but i've accepted it So, what you are saying is that i'm minipulating the elements?? Because I call them all the time and they respond. I mean, am ii going crazy or what? My parents don't know about her, ii know what im doing and ii think that she maybe right about me being the weilder of the elements. I've casted a circle with her, and when she felt all the elements, it was super funny because her eyes widened ALOT I mean, ii believe ii can weild the elements. ii am hoping its true | |

Sorry to just jump in the conversation but...
Perhaps you should give an account on this elemental involking just for reference. All of us are able to weild the elements to our will; it doesn't have anything to do with one god/dess favoring one human over the other humans on earth. As far as your teacher is concerned I would have to agree with Chi because if anything it seems as if something is not as it should be when it comes to her. I mean no disrespect toward her but after reading the part where she says that the Gods only choose one human instantly raised red flags with me. | |

Ah, okay, I understand now. I think this was a bit of a misconception most likely. The way you said it the first time had me thinking something hidden was coming about. Now I see.

Well, from what you have said about your trainer, it IS ILLEGAL for her to be training you without your parents permission since you are under 18. She could go to prison. And I am sure that this doesn't put me in the best light but I firmly suggest you get out now. I have had friends who fell for High Priest/ess trainers who would train them in secret and reveal they had special powers - all of which lead to some form of abuse; physcial, verbal, psychological or sexual; before they got out. This woman is breaking many laws, whatever her intent may be. I'm not saying she's a bad person, as she may have a lot of experience, but it is common sense that she should have credentials and have requested to meet with your parents fist.
As for being a demigod, we all are what we are. You are free to be what you like and say what you are. However, please keep in mind that the way you are expressing yourself makes you look like a self-proclaimed prophet. Imagine if you walked into a Christian Church and claimed to be half of Christ. Would that make some people uncomfortable? Most definitly. Also keep in mind, other people demand respect for their beliefs too, but we don't broadcast it for attention.
And if ANYONE can come to do this, why did you say that the Gods have chosen you and only you will have this ability until you die? | |

Those laws are in place for a reason. Whatever her intent is, whether she is a good person or not, is not of the issue. She's doing bad things, so it doesn't really matter if she's a good person or not, YOU need to show some maturity and be responsible. As for what you believe you are hearing from Apollo, think of it this way: The greek gods are known throughout history as being human-like. They are human in appearence, they have human behavoir. So, perhaps, since the Greek gods evaluate humans the way other humans do, that his impression is not the end all be all? Not only that but, no matter how strong your bond with the divine is, you ALWAYS need real world physcial back up. You need to speak with a mature adult gaurdian, pronto. | |

Interesting question - I suppose I have many answers. The Greco-Roman gods are very close to me. I think of them as amazing spiritual, cultural and artistic icons. The Gods involvement in greek history is one of the most interesting in the world - it's like the Gods are an anthropological and psychological map of human history. I have called on Greek gods in ritual, but I personally am a soft polytheist. That means I think all Gods are facets of one divine force, archetypes for the human mind, or personifications of nature. So yes, I do believe in them, but perhaps not literally. I love Greek mythology, second only to Japanese mythology (They are very simillar in how they depict their Gods) but I don't follow them 'to the letter' so to speak. | |
