Lesson 4: Elemental Powers

As with the planetary aspects, another consideration

in spellwork is the Elemental associations. See 2.III:

“The Elements,” and also 3.VI: “Tables of Correspon-

dence.” Here are some of the main concerns associated

with the various Elements:

 AIR: Wisdom, thought, communication, intelli-

gence, logic, math, memory, education,

music.

 FIRE: Passion, sex, success, career, ambition,

goals, courage, energy, swift movement.

 WATER: Emotions, drink, psychic pursuits,

psychology, dreams, imagination.

 EARTH: Physical health, food, material wealth,

manifestation, protection, binding.


 AIR/FIRE: Beauty, art, spirituality, rein-

carnation, luck, gambling.

 FIRE/WATER: Romantic love, relation-

ships, partnerships, soulmates.

 WATER/EARTH: Joy, fertility, garden-

ing, cooking, household.


 EARTH/AIR: Business, travel, adventure.


 AIR/WATER: Harmony, dance, parties,

social matters.

 EARTH/FIRE: Politics, sports, competition.

Lesson 5: Spellcraft

When doing spells, there are two types of chants—

those handed down through Grimoires and spell

books, and those you make up yourself. Both have

their advantages. Ones that have been used for some

time by many others have built up a certain magickal

charge around them, and when you use them, you are

also tapping into all that morphic resonance. On the

other hand, the ones that you create are the work of

your own vision, imagination, and magickal Will,
