Earth
This Element is the mother of us all. It is stones, montains, trees and grass,
it is the ground we walk on and it is the flesh we wear.
Earth is calm and understanding, it holds great wisdom and knowledge and
whenever you need to find an answer earth will be of help.
When human destroys the earth, he is infact destroying himself, because
without earth he is not.
When one lives in union with the earth, and works to protect it, one will
enjoy a long and healthy life.
Earth is the element used in healing and recovering.
Magic Uses: Healing, Recovering, Gaining of Knowledge, Creation, Shielding,
Blessings.
Water
This Element is the beginning of all life. It is the Ocean, the seas, the
rain and snow. It is the tears in your eyes and the life in your body.
Whenever you feel drained of life, tired and weak, return to the water,
It will give you life anew. When human kills the life in the water, she
kills the life in herself. Without water there is no life.
When one lives in union with water, and works to keep it alive, one will
be full of life oneself.
Water is the element used in cleansing and shielding.
Magic uses: Cleansing, Shielding, Healing, Changing, Removing of Curses and harmfull
magick, Creation.
Air
This element is freedom and father of independent thoughts. It is the winds,
the storms, the hurricanes, the noises around you, it is all movement.
Air is free and independent, it is changing and keeps to itself.
When you need inspiration, or to cut loose, share with the air, it will
bring you freedom and new thoughts.
When one lives in union with Air, one will be full of ideas and easily find
new ways.
Wind is the element used in moving things and breaking.
Magic uses: Movement, breaking, Creation of life.
Fire
This is the element of power, strength, determination and courage. It is the father of
all energy and passion. It is the Sun, the stars, the heat in the earth, it is
the flame and it is the flame in your heart.
Whenever you need power and strength, when you need defence against evil and forces
tearing you down, share with fire and your strength will return, you will gain defence
against evil and nothing will be able to harm you.
Fire is the defender of all that is good, it is strong, filled with passion and determination.
When one lives in union with fire, one will be strong, never fail in belief
and do everything with full conciousness.
Fire is the element used in defence and strengtening.
Magic uses: Defense, Cleansing, Strengthening, Weakening, Creation of life.
Soul
This is the Element of Shaping, Joining and Creation. It is the Mother and
Father of all magic. This is the element that binds the others, shapes them
and makes them one. It is Eternity, Life and Death, it is You.
When one is in contact with one's soul one is the magician/magicienne.
With soul you can change and shape everything, Even life and death,
There are no limits.
Soul is strong in your blood, but none of it's powers can be used against your
will. Yes blood magick does make strong magick, but done with an unwillings blood
it will always strike back at you, it will wait to a moment when you are weak and
strike back with strength threefold. Never Ever! do blood magick with someone
elses blood. This kind of sacrifice, this kind of magick, is tainted, sick and
evil. It is magick at it's worst and most sick condition, and will strike back
at you.
There is only one thing that is worse than this kind of taint, and that is
the stealing or destroying of another soul. I pray that this rite will never
be performed, will never have to.
The soul is the element used when gazing into the future, and doing all magic.
Magic uses: Shielding, Changing, Seeing into the future, Creation of life,
Dream magick.
