Sylphs and Zephyrs

Sylphs are female elemental air spirits who are said to protect innocent maidens. They are the souls of maidens who flirted in life but never gave their favours. They sometime appear as butterflies, mostly around fragrant White flowers. They usually are found on hilltops and/or open plains.

Zephyrs are guardian of the winds. They get their name from Zephyrus, the west wind in Greek mythology. Zephyrs are usually pictured blowing trumpets From where the winds came from.

I did get this information from a book I am reading. The author being Cassandra Eason.

interesting. King Zephyrus and the Sylphs are mentioned in a spell I am doing. I wondered what they are.

Thank you very much. I have often wondered about Sylphs and Zephyrs. I would be interested to find out more so I will look up that author.

Sylphs are also known by some as fae spirits that are a mix of water and light. Some see them as "dew faeries". Nice post :)

In some religions zephyrs eat the air we breath and sucks the air right out of our lungs often killing the person if not stopped though they mean no harm and often dont even relize there hurting people
