My Story:
Ever since I was a child I have felt different from the other kids, to be honest I still feel different from others till this day. The difference is I have a better understanding of why.
I have always felt this other worldly connection that I could never explain. My teachers in school as well as other adults would mark it up to be that I was just a deep day dreamer. Later on in my early 20’s I would finally realise that what I have been “feeling” my whole life is Magick. My abilities or gifts started to flourish in my late teens.
Seeing Shadow People, Vivid real dreams, Seeing the Energy or Auras that surrounds anything living, Candles Flames that danced and jumped when ever Im near by, Sensing something is wrong or not a good idea before it happens. I know all of these situations sound SO out there and probably weird but I learned that these situations are not so weird and lots of people actually experience them. I learned this through the magick of the Elements.
But! Why do I enjoy Elemental Magick?? I feel a strong connection to them, the same feeling I remeber having as a child. It is like a natural calling for me. It just feels right.
Why is Elemental Magick a terrific practice to learn? Lets find out!
What are the 5 Elements?
Some people might argue that only 4 Elements excist. Earth, Air, Water, and Fire. Well those people might not be aware that there is a 5th Element. No, not like the movie from 1997 with Milla Jovovich and Bruce Willis running around fighting aliens, all though it is a great movie. The 5th Element is Spirit.
Mackenzie Sage Wright, A Wiccan of 25 years, Blogger on Exemplore and teacher of NeoPaganism explains in her artical “Elemental Powers and Finding your Wiccan Element” that the Elements are more than their physical forms, dirt, H20, oxygen, and flames. The Elements also represent Personality traits, Masculine or Feminine Energy.

Paracelsus
The 5 Elements have been around since the dawn of time. During the 16th century, the Renaissance in Europe, Alckemist and Occult practioners made recordes about the Elements. Paracelsus, born Philippus Aureolus Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim, was a Swiss German physician, chemist, botanist, alchemist, astrologer and general occultist who is famous for his iconoclastic rebellion against the conservative medical orthodoxy of his day, as well as for his bold, new ideas in medicine explained the Spirits of the Elements.
Gnomes corresponded to Earth
Undines to Water
