The Wisdom of the Elements: The Sacred Wheel of Earth, Air, Fire and Water

Rating:
Summary: Talk about dry reading.
Review: <Sigh> Yet another in a list of Fluff Bunny books. This one is so full of wannabe tree hugger information that it almost put me to sleep within the first part of the introduction. This author's writing is uninspired, unorignal, and boring. If you are into this "hippie magick", then you may like it.. otherwise pass it up for something better. Try Scott Cunnigham's excellent book on the elements if you're a wiccan and want something really worth reading on earth,air,fire, and water. Better yet, read Agrippa's work on the elements and hit it at the source!

Summary: For a Wiccan oriented look at the elements it's wonderful.
Review: It is a Wiccan/Golden Dawn/High Magick look at the elements that goes into great depth. IT is not over ridden with too many spells or meditations. It gives good information to Wiccans and the like who wish to have an eclectic look at the elements. Much better than Cunningham's Elemental books.

Summary: One of the best I've read this year...
Review: This book is one of "those" for me: it brought together so many pieces. Upon finishing it, I had a holistic picture of the four elements as applied in many areas of metaphysics, including astrology and tarot, and in medicine and sacred wheels used in many spiritual traditions. Margie covers so much, from the five platonic solids of sacred geometry to chinese medicine and the tao, to archangels. She even has recipes! Her discussion of the four elements is the most in-depth and informative I've ever come across. I've been studying metaphysics for over 17 years, and this book was the one that gave me what I was missing re: fire, earth, air and water. She also discusses elementals, which I've been curious about. Her style is companionable. Her meditations are doable - and I really have trouble in that department. Do yourself a favor: get this one!
