Magic Forums

I think its time this very interesting topic was brought to attention and discussion. Has anyone had any experience with Spiritual beings in a physical form? Is there a way to translate Spiritual beings into the physical plane in order to observe them?
Take the wee folk for example, if you have befriended one, cant you just ask it to show itself unto you? They are known for helping with chores and such but how can they do that in Spiritual form; do they just do everything through their magick?
Or maybe even dragons; there was a time when these beings showed themselves unto humans else we wouldnt have their ancient and common depictions.
