The 5 Elements of Alchemical Transformation

Updated: Jan 28, 2021



“Don’t dismiss the elements. Water soothes and heals. Air refreshes and revives. Earth grounds and holds. Fire is a burning reminder of our own will and creative power. Swallow their spells! There’s a certain sweet comfort in knowing that you belong to them all” – Victoria Erickson.

We all exist in a Universe that has at the core of itself many levels of creative expression, which form the very building blocks of life. As a Soul, we journey, express and experience our Divine Spark through each of these levels simultaneously and as such require each element of our divine nature to be equally acknowledged and in balance in order to have a full and harmonious expression of our Soul throughout our life time within this Soul journey we call Life.
THE FIVE ELEMENTS ARE ENERGETIC EXPRESSIONS OF SOURCE, THE NATURAL AND POTENT FORCES OF NATURE ENERGY EXPRESSING IN THIS 3D WORLD, AND AS SUCH WE ARE INTRINSICALLY LINKED WITHIN THEM ALL. WHEN HONORED AND UNDERSTOOD THESE FORCES CAN BE HARNESSED FOR GROWTH AND WELL BEING.
Ether is the inorganic Soul expressing in time and space. Experienced through Vibration. From the energy of the beyond and immortal, this element is not bound to time and space in the same way and is likened to the gatekeeper and place holder. Ether is our Soul, The journey, and the Call all at once. Ether is beyond the seasons and is governed by Source energy. The Major Acana are the Fool, and the World. The call to adventure and the completion all at once. The Void, The Womb, Dark Matter in which all other elements are birthed from.

Earth is the most dense level of time and space and the First Element. Experienced through the five senses. From our Home in this Universe being Papatuanuku Our Mother – Earth, to our Home for our Soul being our Physical Bodies. Earth is what we are tethered to and this forms the foundation for the other levels of being. Earth is of the South the Heart and The Inner Child and Youth. The Season of the Earth is Summer, the Time is 12pm Noon. The Suit of Pentacles is the Tarot card represented by the element Earth. The Major Arcana is The Magician. Number 1. Astrology – Taurus,Virgo, Capricorn.


Water is the second density in time and space. Experienced Internally. From the heart of our emotions and feelings Water is the flow of emotion (energy in motion) Water is of the West, the burning ground where we cleanse ourselves of all that is no longer required and allow the free flow of all that is in any given moment. The time of day is Dusk, Sunset. It is the domain of the Psychic Feminine Seer and Intuition. The suit of Cups is the Tarot represented by the element Water. The Major Arcana is The High Priestess. Number 2. Astrology – Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces.


Fire is the Third density in time and space. Experienced as expression of internal experience. From the energy of our Spirit, Fire is the creative force of action and passion. Fire is of the East, the Rising Sun and New Beginnings. The dawn of an idea and the seed. It is the domain of the Artist and the Dream makers, the birthers of Vision. The season of Fire is Spring and the time is Dawn, Sunrise. The suit of Wands is the Tarot represented by the element of Fire. The Major Arcana is the Empress. Number 3. Astrology – Aries, Leo, Sagittarius.


Air is the third density in time and space. Experienced through perception communication and intuition. From the energy of Air our Mind, Air is the place of the Sage and Wisdom gathered to the higher mind. Air is of the North, the probing masculine Mind and the Wisdom keepers and Knowledge holders. The North Wind is the place of Winter and its time is Night. The suit of Swords represents the element of Air. The Major Acana is the Emperor. Number 4. Astrology – Libra, Gemini, Aquarius


These elements are the basis of our experience in this life, and once opened to and understood open an important door in our understanding of not only ourselves, but each other and the very nature of life itself. We can see this pattern of creation all around us at all times, in music, art, nature, colour, and sound. The five elements are the Alchemical make up of who we are, and can lead us to a much deeper and more powerful understanding of our potential and creative forces. Magic is nothing more than the acknowledgement and deep understanding of how to work with these forces, to align ourselves with our world and our destiny as a co-creative force upon this planet. Far from Spooky and Superstitious, the elements and magic have been acknowledged and honored by our ancients as the pathway to our Divine Nature, the steps to our Divine Destiny and Our inherent birthright. Today this is needed more than ever if we are to fully understand the deeper knowledge and then begin to bring balance into our lives at all levels of society and our personal lives also. Knowledge is power, and this is the most primal, yet foundational knowledge we can ever know.

Kym Divine Spark.
