Gnome
Gnomes, goblins[1], dwarfs[2], wichtelmen[3], earth spirits[4], mountain spirits, rock spirits or elementary beings of the solid are elementary beings that arose as a cut-off from the hierarchy of the Archai [5]. Their astral home is the interior of the earth, from whose spiritual-soul layers they rise and are therefore particularly close to the earthly embodied human being[6]. They live as root spirits in the damp earth and carry the life ether to the plant. They are entirely sensory organs, but at the same time they absorb thoughts with their perception. They receive the ideas of the universe through the plants and carry them through the earth, especially in autumn and winter. They are super-comprehending beings and have their counterpart in the human thought life.
Normally the gnomes are enclosed in the realm of the root. Gnomes, however, also live in all rock formations. However, they can also grow beyond these boundaries, in fact they always strive to do so, and in this way they grow into gigantic forms: the gnomes then become frost giants.
