Invoking Earth


Traditionally the direction of this Element is north and the colour normally associated with Earth is green.

It is represented on the altar usually by salt or sand.

Crystals, because they are totally natural substances, can also be used.

When invoking Earth and the powers of the north, you are looking for recovery and healing and perhaps trying to find answers to questions.

These powers deal with gaining knowledge, blessing, creating and shielding.

When working within a magical circle, this is the first corner or quarter on which you call for protection.

The principal nature spirits of the Earth are called gnomes.

They are said to live underground and guard the earth’s treasures.

Other groups within the earth’s nature spirits ruled by the god Pan are brownies, dryads, Earth spirits, elves and satyrs.
