The five elements are very important within Witchcraft.Earth, Air, Fire, Water and Spirit make up the elements.Each one has its own unique energy and characteristics.
Earth
When I think of Earth I think about soil.Soil contains and keeps all the minerals and moisture that all the plants on the planet need to live.Earth is everything we are and everything we have comes from the element of Earth.We are born of it and we return to it at the end of our lives.Earth is the foundation so it is no wonder that the element of Earth is associated with abundance and prosperity.Earth also stabilises and grounds us, think of the grounding exercise mentioned earlier – it involves not only trees that grow but the earth, soil and rock of the planet.

Rivers, lakes, ponds, seas, oceans and any other names for large bodies of water and all with immense magical powers. Water is a necessity of life, never underestimate its power.
Water, you are the origin of life, the blood of the Earth, the greatest portion of our very bodies. Water, you flow gently to quench and sooth, and rage in torrents to cleanse and reshape. Water, you protected us in the womb, and are a daily necessity throughout our lives. Water, you circulate through air and earth connecting all things to all things. Water you are life, may we be your protectors.
