The Elements Of Magick.
Each of the elements is necessary for human life. All have both positive and negative aspects, and each acts as a check for the others. The Earth without Water to moisten it, without Fire to warm it, and without Air to surround it, would be a lifeless planet. The elements work in harmony to create and to sustain life. The elements are present both in physical form (such as a handful of soil) and in unmanifested, non-physical form. All the elements emerge from Akasha, the source of all energy.
"Attuning and working with these energies in magic not only lends you the power to affect dramatic changes in your life, it also allows you to sense your own place in the larger scheme of Nature."
Scott Cunningham, Earth Power
The Four Creative Elements: the universe was divided into four basic principles, energies or elements, these being Earth, Water, Fire, and Air.
Water is the cleansing, healing, psychic, loving element. It washes over us when we see our mates; supports us when we swim; gives us life when we are dehydrated.
Air is vital to human survival. Without air, we would perish. Air is the power of movement; of freshening and of intelligence. In magickal terms, Air is also the power of the mind: the force of intellect.
The Seven Noble Metals Of The Ancients and their associations with magick. These metals and the planetary and astrological correspondences are important in many aspects of Witchcraft.
The four elements of material creation are surmounted by the fifth Element Of Spirit, the element that links us to the divine.
The basis and foundation of all the elements is the Earth. The earth is the object; subject and receptacle of all celestial rays and influences and in it are the seed of all things.
Fire is the creator and destroyer. It warms our homes, cooks our food, and fuels our passions. Unlike the other elements, Fire cannot exist in physical form without consuming something else.
Akasha is the fifth element, the binding part that runs through all matter, and it is also the collective unconscious of life-forms. The word itself is Persian/East Indian and means 'inner space'.
