splinterpearl: So, this table was/is another part of the Moonlight Academy Grimoire Challenge by @moonlightgrimoirechallenge. (Sort of, it’s how I interpreted the prompt, anyway.)The way I work with elements is a little strange so let me explain. Each element has it’s traditional quality correspondences. Water, for example, is Cold, Wet, and Receptive. That is super helpful, and well-established info. However, it’s totally possible to refine what kind of elemental energy one is calling on by using those traits on each element. If I wanted to, for example, remove my self from my anxious thoughts, I would call on Receptive Spiritual Dark Air, to bring myself to a neutral static place. That way, I wouldn’t risk bringing overthinking into it. I’m really visual, so the physical energies are images for me, but they have their own sort of energy. There’s a real, effective weight to them, I just find them hard to describe without imagery. Your mileage may vary on the associations, but I wanted to share the technique/idea, at the very least! Very neat! :) -- source link
