The four Elements are energies, and

manifestations of energy, that make up the

entire universe. They also influence our

personalities and therefore what we do. Magical

working calls to each elemental kingdom and its

ruler to protect each cardinal point and its

properties. Each Element has an intrinsic power

and is known for having certain qualities,

natures, moods and magical purposes. Each

also has positive and negative traits.

Earth, Air, Fire and Water are the four

Elements and you may well find that you work

best using one of them in particular. People

drawn to candle magic, for instance, are using

mainly the Element of Fire, while those who

work with incense are using Air with a fair

smattering of Earth in the herbs and resins.

The fifth Element is that of spirit, which is the

‘binding principle’ behind everything.

Sometimes known as aether, it is, on the whole,

intangible, yet is that which makes everything

happen.

Earth

Traditionally the direction of this Element is

north and the color normally associated with

Earth is green. It is represented on the altar

usually by salt or sand. Crystals, because they

are totally natural substances, can also be used.

When invoking Earth and the powers of the

north, you are looking for recovery and healing

and perhaps trying to find answers to questions.

These powers deal with gaining knowledge,

blessing, creating and shielding. When working

within a magical circle, this is the first corner or

quarter on which you call for protection.

Air

The direction of this Element is east and the

color usually associated with it is yellow.

Incense is often used to represent Air, since the

movement of the air can be seen in the incense

smoke.

When you are looking for inspiration, need

new ideas or perhaps to break free from the

past or undesired situations, you would use

this Element. The quality associated with it is

that of thinking or the use of the intellect. When

working in a magical circle, Air is the second

quarter on which you call for protection.

Fire

Fire is the Element of the south and is usually

represented by a candle or a cauldron with a

fire inside. Its color is red and its associations

are to do with power, determination and

passionate energy.

You would call upon this Element for

protection from evil forces, cleansing and

creativity. The quality associated with Fire is

‘doing’ and it is a male principle. It is the third

quarter or cardinal point on which you call for

protection when working in a magical circle.

Water

Water is the Element of the west and is

represented by a bowl of water or a goblet of

wine or fruit juice. Its color is blue and,

because it represents the giving of life, it is

associated with the Elements of sea, rain, snow

and rivers.

When you need cleansing, revitalizing, the

removal of curses or hexes or change of any

sort, you will call upon Water. It is to do with

emotions, right through from the most basic

passions to the most elevated forms of belief. It

is predominantly feminine. It is the fourth and

final quarter that you invoke in any magical

circle.
