Challenge Entry  
Fifth Element Spirit

I’m re-visiting this to explore the changes. Here’s my last entry on this

> CHALLENGE ENTRY I’m not entirely sure if what I’m about to write is the fifth element but here goes. I do not consciously call upon any element. I don’t use circles anymore as they are not part of my current practice, infact they are discouraged. I don’t use wands, or really any tools at all now, nor crystals, nor an athame. And I hardly use my old altar for actual magical workings. My tools, are in the nature found in my land, shop items are discouraged as are imported items from other lands.…

Now, this fifth Element has taken an actual identity whilst I was working within the Christian Pantheon. One of the things I’ve been developing as part of Nordic Mystism and Chaos witchcraft, is to absorb different pantheons, and make them your own. This means I connect with the spirits and teachings of that practice, work in it, believe it - it’s a core part of embracing chaos. For the whole of this experience I was limited with what I could share but as this lesson has concluded, I can share a part of what I experienced.

I worked with the Holy Spirit. It was a strange and unsettling experience at first, but also incredibly calming once I understood the way He works. I’ve always believed the Holy Spirit was an energy, and this is believed still by some, however the way He revealed himself to me was as an entity. Not just any entity, but as Spirit.

Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Holy Spirit. Spirit. As an element, an entity, an energy - basically Spirit can become whatever He needs to be. I found this to be unsettling. His form, his energy as in how he felt, was constantly shifting but always left me feeling calm. For the few months I worked with him, daily, I’ve never slept so well. 😴

I found He didn’t share his space. Loki stepped aside and this, I did not like but there wasn’t alot I could do about it so …🤷

The Holy Spirit is known for _filling_ you. I’m not sure if I experienced this, but I definitely felt when He was around and when he was not. The lesson I learnt were to let go of human belief systems, and to learn to walk my own path, to get rid of pre-conceived ideas on spirituality and to just be. To live in the _momentum_ of life, not in the moment.

He’s gone now. How do I feel? Weird. There’s no other way to describe it. I’m happy that I’m back on familiar ground and grateful for the experience. I’ve let go of alot of bad feelings, probably all of them and now know where I want my spiritual journey to go and where I don’t. I still can’t share everything, there’s a _sigil_ on my mouth 😆 (Agatha Harkness). But if this is the fifth Element, or a part of the Fifth Element - Spirit, then it’s been an enlightening experience but not one I’d like to go through again. 🤪
