Planetary and Elemental Correspondences

E A R T H

Elemental Earth rules over sensual human aspects, and in the Tarot, it is connected to money (Pentacles), probably because of its original connection to wealth from the earth, such as crops or ores; thus, this is a good Element to choose for spells for abundance or fertility of various kinds. Earth is considered dry and cold; it is solid, heavy--clumsy but stolid, doesn't allow for flights of fancy but builds a firm foundation, keeps one grounded, pun intended. Earth plants tend to be nourishing field crops like corn, and earthy-smelling plants include mushrooms and lichens, patchouli and vetiver.
