Water Element Magic: Correspondence & Simple Practices for Daily Connection

The soothing sound of the rain, a beautiful moment of pure happiness, or that cool drink of water on a hot summers day; these are all sources of water magick.

Water flows all around us and within us everyday. Up to 60% of the human body is made up of water. It refreshes, gives life, rises, and falls. This element is full of cleansing, loving, and healing energy.

If you have been thinking about adding this life giving element into your own practice keep on reading!

Water energy represents purity, fluidity, and harmony. This powerful energy can heal, cleanse, and calm us but is often taken for granted. A lot of us can't even manage to drink enough water on a daily basis!

This post is the fourth and final post in my four part series covering the elements; earth, air, fire, water. So  keep reading and if you'd like to check out the other elemental posts you can find them here: EARTHAIRFIRE.

Making Water Magic Part of Your Everyday Practice

I mentioned this in the other posts, but it's worth repeating. It’s important for us to make space in our days for that powerful natural energy each element contains. Being mindful of this will enrich your connection to nature, bringing balance, and powerful magick to your practice. 

Water energy exists all around us. Opening up and embracing it will allow it's energy to heal, cleanse, and soothe us.

If you have been feeling chaotic, anxious or out of balance it may be a good idea to spend some time connecting with the water element. It may just provide you with that comforting energy you are needing. 

Drink water, go swimming, listen to the rain, or allow yourself to let go and just feel joy. There are many ways to include the water element into your everyday routine.
