Day One - Wander back out to the Main Index, under Elements / Direction, and read up on Earth.
Day Two - Forget what you learned on Day One. Spend sometime today writing down what you think is Earth. Meditate upon what the word brings to mind, what senses come into play.
Day Three - Spend the day looking around you. Earth is the physical element, so it is much more than the ground and trees. What physical things call to mind the element of earth most intensely for you?
Day Four - Back to meditation. If you can, go outdoors and spend some time meditating to learn the element of earth that is within you.
Day Five - No exercise today. Today is a day of rest while the mind assimilates what you've discovered so far.
Day Six - Write down what you've discovered about the element of Earth as it applies to you.
Day Seven - Welcome earth into your being. By now, you will have discovered the physical things that call to mind the element of earth most intensely for you. Hold one of these items, touch it, look at it, feel it within your being. Visualize yourself becoming one with the object, mentally taking on aspects of the object. Are you hard like a stone or soft as a rose? Is the scent of the deepest dark earth or a light floral scent? Know earth within your being.
Instead of calling all
quarters, call only Earth with the following invocation:
