What different elements are there?

• Earth
• Air
• Fire
• Water
• Spirit
Spirit isn't always included when talking about elements, but I do include it since I think it's important to learn about the spirit too.
In one of my previous blog posts we learned that the pentagrams points each represent one element and so in this blog post we're going to dive a bit deeper into learning about them!


The element: Earth

Our earth serves as a foundation for everything and there are many things growing from the earth. the Earth Element is a bit similar.

The Element: Spirit

Spirit (Ether) technically isn't an element, but it get's included in the elements a lot.
The Spirit is the top point of the pentagram because it's above and within everything!
We can experience the other elements with our senses but the spirit is elusive. Which means that we can only try to train our spiritual abilities to try to connect as much with it as we can!
