I love working with the four elements – earth, air, fire and water. They are readily accessible, easy to work with and lend themselves to all sorts of witchcraft (spells, meditation, self-care). Let’s explore some different ways you can use them.
Earth:
Use the earth element for grounding. Visualize your feet growing roots, digging into the ground and pulling up energy.
Walk barefoot on the ground to soothe yourself with earth’s loving energy.
Go on a nature walk. Take in the beauty. Smell the flowers. Hug a tree.
Hold onto a calming crystal or lay down and place it on your heart chakra.
Air:
Breathe…just breathe…in and out…in and out.
Go outside and let the cool breeze blow negative energy off of you.
Listen to pleasant sounds – wind chimes, soothing music or birds chirping.
Lay in the grass and watch the clouds float by. Scry with them if you want.
Fire:
Light a candle and watch the flame flicker or meditate with the candle.
Sit in the warm sun for a few minutes.
Enjoy an evening beside an outdoor fire pit.
Visualize igniting your inner fire.
Water:
Take a relaxing bath.
Stand out in a spring rain to wash away negative energy.
Spend time at a body of water like the ocean or a river.
Listen to the trickling water of a fountain.
I have enjoyed sharing ideas with you this past month. I hope you were able to incorporate some of them into your witchy practice. Always remember to take care of yourself – you are worth it!
