"The four elements of Air, Fire, Water and Earth exist asspiritual essences, as philosophical concepts,as energy states and as a tangible physical reality. "Working magick with the elements helps to connect us to the tangiblypresent natural powers in our physical world, whilst at the same time weare returning to the building blocks of magick by rooting our feet in thematerial world. Since Empedocles formalized the system in ancient Greecein the 5th century BCE, the four elements have become an integral part of theWestern Esoteric Tradition - passing from ancient Greek magick, throughthe Qabalah, & Grimoire Traditions into modern derivative traditions of ceremonial magick and paganism.In Practical Elemental Magick the authors provide an unprecedentedcombination of research and techniques for working the magick of Air, Fire, Water and Earth, as well as the spiritual creatures associated with each. TheElemental Gods, Archangels, rulers and other types of elemental beings(including Sylphs, Salamanders, Undines & Gnomes) are discussed andexplored.
