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.
