This is what Earth Magic is to me. Everybody is going to have their own different meanings for different things and someone out there is going to have their own meaning of Earth Magic so this is my meaning. Earth Magic to me is natural, ancient, and is mostly associated with the shaman’s, and witchcraft, but to me it is one of the most important forms of magic and it is also very powerful. I also think it is the most efficient of the four elements and I believe this is because when you do an Earth Magic spell you always have to most likely take something from the earth whether it is flowers, herbs, plants, rocks, spices, etc. You are taking these things from the earth and by the end of the spell you always have to give it back to the earth. This is my reason why I feel it is the most efficient of the four elements.
I also feel that it causes us to have a deeper connection with mother earth, the creator God ( or whoever you believe is the creator), as well spirits and the Universe. To give an example of an earth magic spell, this is a spell that I cast for myself and it was a money spell. I took a piece of notebook paper and I wrote on it what I wanted to manifest which was money in any form possible and I took a few herbs and spices that is good for manifesting money during a spell such as mint, cinnamon, basil, dill, and ginger. I mixed them together and folded it up inside the paper and I burned it. After I burned it I dug a hole in the ground and buried the ashes. By doing this I gave back to earth what I took from it. Doing earth magic spells may take longer to work then say a fire, air, or water spell because earth is the embodiment of the other elements.
I look at like this earth is the mother of all things. If you would ask your mother to fix you something to eat it will take her awhile to finish the meal due to the time it takes to prepare and cook it. So we as spell casters are asking mother earth to prepare and serve us our spell so she must first gather our information, prepare our manifestations, and then deliver to us our ending solution to the spell cast. With all this in progress it will be some time before the spell works. But it will be well worth the wait because I believe the longer it takes for a spell to work the efficient the spell will be.
As for the Shaman’s they used some of the most ancient techniques when it comes to earth magic. They used herbs, flowers, plants, and spices to heal themselves, others, and the earth. I don’t know a lot about shamanism but I am still studying it and I have purchased some things to help me better understand shamanism. A couple of these is a book by Dr. Steven D. Farmer Titled Earth Magic. I bought this book after I had a meditation to where my spirit guide Floyd had come through and told something that I did not know and that was that I was of shamanic decent and I should learn more about shamanism. I was drawn to this book because it is about Ancient Shamanic Wisdom. I haven’t finished the book yet but based on what I read so far it is a very good book. I also purchased a deck of oracle cards by Dr. Farmer as well and these are titled Earth Magic Oracle cards.
I also purchased another deck of cards. This deck is the Shamans Oracle cards. (Explain a little about the decks.) Also different ancient cultures have used earth magic for many years and have been successful with it their different uses of it. Also you have witchcraft with the wiccans, pagans, druids, and groups like that that have acknowledged and at times even worshiped the earth so earth magic is important in many different faiths and religions. I think this is good because with different faiths people believe in different things even though there will be people out there that won’t believe in what you believe in you still have the right to believe in whatever you want. I believe that is how humanity should be. You should never let other people tell you what you should believe in. It’s your life and it’s your faith follow your heart and embrace it. Besides those things I just mentioned I do a lot of research. I will watch YouTube videos to try to learn more about shamanism and witchcraft. I also practice spells to better myself and get more connected with the earth. These are some of the things I do in my own time to learn more and better myself with magic. As far as Shamanism goes I read books, watch videos, and often meditate and channel with my spirit guide Floyd to get as much information as possible.
I have this encyclopedia of magical herbs by Scott Cunningham that I will look through for certain herbs and things that I may growing in my garden that is good for aches and pains and I will use those herbs or spices in a tea or paste if I have a headache, toothache or some sort of pain. I like to practice this because instead of always going for the over the counter meds I want to take a more natural approach to healing the pain. I spend a minute or so to talk about the earth. Now earth is matter and when we are connecting with the earth we are connecting with the whole Universe basically and the element of earth could be associated with any planet because if you really think about it any planet could be earth to whatever being is living on that planet. There may be dirt, trees whatever living organism on that planet could represent earth to those beings living there. Any of these things could exist on any planet so to me earth could be looked at as many planets. Also we are matter as well because I feel that in a way we come from earth because earth is made up mostly water and more than half of our body is made up of water. I also think of nature when I think of earth. I love nature and when you are out in nature you are surrounded by earth. Also we couldn't survive without all the wonderful things that earth provides for us to live and breathe. Earth is our key to existence. Besides me being an earth element these are all the things that come to my mind when I think of earth and earth magic.
