| Djinn, also called Jinn, and Genies, are a magickal race of beings from Islamic and pre-Islamic mythology, said to be half human and half demon. Djinni can be good or evil. They tend to be mischevious and like to punish humans who dare to cross them, even without intent. Djinn are beings of air and fire, and can shapeshift to assume the shapes of animals or humans. They may also exist in air, flame, beneath the earth, and often secret themselves in inanimate objects such as rocks, trees, or Alladin's legendary lamp. Djinni are said to have the power to grant wishes, however it is wise to be cautious, as they see greed as a sin, and too many wishes (more than three in legend) can undo the ones before. http://www.tween-the-shadows.com/magick/symbols_magick/djinn_jinn_genies.php | |
