Dance of the Four Elements


102. Dance of the Four
Elements-In many spiritual practices all
of existence is broken down into a mix of elements. In modern science we have
our periodic table which shows a model with many different elements. In ancient
wisdom traditions around the world they use elemental models usually consisting
of 4 or 5 elements. The most common of these are Air, Fire, Water, & Earth.
Other commonly used elements are wood, metal, mineral, and ether. These elements
compose not only physical matter, but also our thoughts, emotions, and
personalities. All energy is composed of some mix of these elements. When we
understand how these work we can shift the elements within us and around us to
bring life into a balance of the elements. May this artwork assist in helping
bring balance to all the elements in your life and let them dance with joy.
