The Elements

The Acients divided our universe into four basic principles, or what we call elements, Earth. Air, Fire, and Water. As science has advance, the view of these elements have changed, but they are still accepted in magick because they link with emotions, the human pysche, and also with nature rather than today's views on the world. These elements are often used in magick rituals.These magickal elements are also important in astrology. Many occultists think of the four elements as forces or "qualities" of energy, in the astral world.Each element has its own symbol and color:

fire: a triangle pointing up, red
air: a triangle pointing up and with a horizontal line through the middle of it, yellow
water: a triangle pointing down, blue
earth: a triangle pointing down and with a horizontal line through the middle of it, brown and green
