Element of Air
Fear is excitement without breath.
– Robert Heller
The elements are our connection to Mother Earth. All living things are made up of earth, air, fire and water. When we connect to the elemental energies around us, we live in flow and solidify our connection to Source.
The element of air symbolizes our creativity and desires. While air can lift us up and breathe new life into our lungs, it cannot be confined by boundaries.
Air is represented in the east, where the sun rises, giving us the breath of life to birth new life and ideas.
Call upon the element of air and air archetypes to gain perspective and clarity. Air also facilitates communication effectively and the sharing of ideas.
