if you want to hear something about the occult view of the elements (alchemic view) from me read on:
it's mistaken by the mass that there is only four elements
in the school they teach us that there are only three (hard matter, water gas)
in total there is five:
1.earth (north)
2.water (west)
3.south (fire)
4.air (east)
5.spirit (the current location)
they all just represent metter in different states:
1.earth (hard matter)
2.water (liquid)
3.south (plasma)
4.air (gas)
5.spirit (anything astral)
===
no pay attention
hard metter (EARTH) creates DRYNESS which is created by HEAT heat is created by FIRE (hard matter + heat + air (oxygen o2) = fire) FIRE makes AIR (smoke) AIR with COLD conditions (ones the fire turns off) creates WATER (liquid) which itself creates humidity which when combinated with COLD conditions result in EARTH (hard matter) and the whell starts ALL OVER FROM THE BEGINNING but stil it all starts with the SPIRIT (divine power) which it self has not beginning nor ending!
The names of the elements do have different names when you look into western, eastern or others. There are others but these two are the most promonant. So don't get dimayed or confussed. Now Starrie, I've a question pertaining to the element each of us are associated with. I was born on the nameless day (Dec.23) at about 8:49pm. I am a cuuspus ( hope the spelling is correct)of Sag and Capr and if I am not mystaken I have Sol in my house. What element or elements would be associated with me?
i'm a Sagittarius, and my element is fire. And most of the time your element is the same one that is with your horoscope. Or at least it's the easiest to learn. you can start with whatever element interest you the most, and it's possible to learn all elements, but like i said, the one associated with your horoscope is easiest. Trust me, i know because i practice fire magick.
