Elemental Magic Elemental Magic is based on the four classical elements: Earth, Air, Fire and Water. These four Elements correspond to the four directions of our physical world, the four quarters of the universe, the four winds, and most importantly the four quarters of the magical circle. Fire and Air are considered male energies, while Water and Earth female. The four Elements are forces and energies that make up the universe and everything in it. They also possess form as well as force. In some traditions, each Element is associated with a color. Many contemporary witches use the following colors: East - yellow; South - red; West - blue; North - green. Earth is the source and provider of all our needs.
