Summary

Undines (from the Latin root unda, which means wave) are water elementals, spirits of the water world. They appear in oral traditions, historical literature, and mythology and their name is often used interchangeably with those of other water spirits-mermaid, selkie, siren. But direct experience with these mysterious creatures of lakes, oceans, and waterfalls is quite rare. Author William Mistele is one of the few who has devoted much of his life to communicating with them.
