Most everything we know about summoners to date can be found in this compilation of SMN lore.
We will likely not see Ramuh or Leviathan egis for a long time, if ever. The given lore reason for this is that to summon an egi you have to split your own aether in two. For these more powerful primals such as Leviathan or Ramuh, the amount of aether needed to summon their egi is too great for a mortal mage to handle, thus the Austerity fails. In order to bypass this limitation, ancient Allagan summoners would use a technique called "Trance" where the summoner would infuse themselves with the essence of the intended primal and channel its energies through them. So its not so much absorbing their egi as it is bypassing summoning the egi and just using its essence in your own magicks.
In game, this is only done with Bahamut for Dreadwyrm Trance, but there's absolutely nothing that says an RPer couldn't utilize Trance to unlock Whorl Trance or Levin Trance.
Hope this helps! ^^
