"The Four Elements are the pillars that uphold the manifest world and anchor spirit to matter. They are associated with a wide range of spiritual entities from small elementals to divine beings. The Elements provide a system of understanding that undergirds most of the magic of the West and Paganism. This book explores each of the Elements in depth, then shows how they interact and change as they rise on the planes. Practical applications for working with the Elements are also woven throughout the book"--
This book is the culmination of a twenty-five year search for a return to a Centered state of grace that was revealed to me. The final message, as related in "Become as a Child", is that enlightenment need not be an elusive esoteric search without end but instead a thoughful return to one's beginnings. A sequel to "The Nature of Centered Emotion", this book consists of sixteen consecutive interactive mandalas beginning with the Mandala of Centered Vision and culminating in the Mandala of Celestial Horizons. In a wedding of the material and the spiritual, these mandalas encompass a structure containing both the conditioned primal emotional responses of materialism and the light giving spiritual support that lives in and through our center of consciousness. In a revelation of self-awareness, painful error in ego identification learned in childhood are compassionately revealed and replaced by a quintessential spiritual healing.
