AIR AND ITS ELEMENTALS
The element of air represents the mind and the metaphysical principle that it reflects is life. It corresponds to the east, the Spring Equinox, the planets Mercury and Uranus, the masculine forces of nature, yang energy, politive polarity, the metal silver, the tarot suit of swords, the color yellow, and the astrological signs of Aquarius, Gemini, and Libra.


The air element is personified by low-level spiritual beings (elementals) known as sylphs. They are traditionally connected with the east quarter (or watchtower) of the ritual circle.The ruler of the elemental race is a higher being or guardian called Paralda. In certain traditions of Wicca, the ruler of the Sylphs is call Eurus, whose name is taken from the Roman god of the east wind.

Air elementals may be invoked to increase energy (physical or magical) and stimulate the powers of the intellect. Their energy greatly enhances all spells and rituals involving new beginnings, spiritual liberation, organization, divination, travel, writing, creation, and communication.
