air

All things share the same breath—
the beast, the tree, the man...
the air shares its spirit with
all the life it supports.

Spiritually, the air element is associated with the Tarot suit of swords, the direction east, the season of spring, and the archangel Raphael. Astrologically, the air signs~Gemini, Libra, Aquarius~are very social and excellent communicators who cherish freedom of thought and movement. In Feng Shui, air (or wind) represents wealth, growth, new beginnings and blessings.
 
There are literally hundreds of years worth of deep and historic writings spanning many spiritual paths about the elements, and I encourage you to explore them as you feel drawn to do so. My overview is merely the briefest of glimpses.
