7 Dimensions of Magick -- Earth Magick

The Element of Earth
Physical reality is defined and described by its two features space and time. Certain places and certain times are better than others to achieve our purposes, this is obvious of course. We can take this intuitive wisdom to a higher order if we study the various factors seriously. Also it is important to be very clear about what we are doing so we need to come to terms and register our understandings into form. Terms are usually words, yet form can be, and often is, expressed symbolically, particularly as sigils, or indeed physical artefacts.

Power Points in Time
Magick depends upon the support of unseen energies, some of which are time-dependent. Being aware of such energy, and knowing its qualities, is a requirement for a competent magician.
Sun Cycles
In particular, Celts, and so Druidry, have embraced the knowledge that there is a repeating cyclical energetic wave whose period is annual. The Sun's most obvious features include the times when it shines the most or the least, or indeed is exactly divided between night and day.

Hence we get:
Summer Solstice
Winter Solstice
Spring Equinox
Autumn Equinox

The half-way points between these 4 quarters are called cross-quarters:
Lammas, 1st August
Samhain, 1st November
Imbolc, 1st February
Beltane, 1st May

Each of these days can vary as to the exact date, according to variations in the Earth's cycles, and local conditions of Nature. It is obvious to say that different times of the year feel different, but less well understood that these feelings are aspects of magick, in fact spells of a sort. Certain activities are better supported by the certain energies that arise at these festival times.

It is also rather trite to point put that some things are better done in the morning, some at night-time and so on. Dawn and dusk are powerful times of day for example; it is when to look for mystical energy.
