The physical realm (Ugaritic: Arṣu) is the material plane of existence. It is inhabited by biological beings and governed by natural laws, and it encompasses physical space, matter, and energy.

Satano-Grigorist cosmology conceptualizes the physical realm as existing alongside the spiritual realm. These two realms are thought to intersect in a way; this is why spirits can affect the physical realm, and why contact between humans and spirits is possible.

Inhabitants

The only known sapient beings that normally inhabit the physical realm are humans. Other forms of biological life with varying levels of complexity exist on earth, but they are not sapient and lack souls.

Symbolism

Symbolically, the physical realm is typically associated with the earth, in contrast to the spiritual realm, which is associated with the sky.
