Earthen ceremony

Stewarded by kahlil | Get Directions

Calling in the elements for a ceremony typically involves acknowledging and inviting the presence of earth, air, fire, and water - representing the physical and spiritual elements of the natural world. One common way to call in the elements is by facing each cardinal direction and addressing the corresponding element. For example, you may start in the East to call in the element of Air, then move to the South to call in Fire, then West for Water, and North for Earth. As you face each direction, you can recite a simple invocation or prayer to invite the element into the space and ask for its blessings and support during the ceremony. You can also use specific symbols or objects to represent each element, such as feathers for Air, candles for Fire, a bowl of water for Water, and stones or soil for Earth. It's important to approach this practice with reverence and intention, and to speak from the heart as you call in each element. Trust your intuition and connect with the energy of the elements as you invite them to be a part of your ceremony.
