Air represents that quality of self that allows us to make plans and fashion new things from the bottom up. We begin at the eastern quadrant in magic and proceed around the circle in a clockwise manner. Air has the quality of everything from the slight breeze of a spring rain, to the tumultuous quality of a
wild and raging hurricane. Air rises as it is warmed and contracts as it is cooled, it has all these effects within and without us. |
