Self Development with Angels and the Four Elements

Angels are always available to help specially in times of need or making a request for something beneficial for yourself and others. To understand this better Catherine Summers and Julian Vayne in their book "Self Development with the Tarot" described the elements as "terms used to describe a number of features of the universe. In the context of self-development they are used to describe aspect of the personality. Each elemental term is in fact a shorthand way of expressing a complex web of associated ideas:

Fire: strength, will-power, passion, creativity
Water: passivity, emotion, sensitivity, intuition, indolence
Air: intelligence, flexibility, wit, swiftness, reliability
Earth: stability, materialism, caution, loyalty

"As you can see from the list above, each Element has a range of associations, though there is a common thread throughout. In the visual language of the tarot the Elements appear in many ways. For instance, the suit of Cups is obviously linked to the Element of Water. Often specific colours are used to give another visual dimension to the elemental attributions. Fire is accorded reds and golds while earthy dualities and ideas are associated with clours such as green and brown. Air cards may be coloured sky blue or pale yellow and watery cards in sea greens and deep blues.

"The elemental system provides another way of looking at your own nature. For instance, your personal drive (Fire) is supported by your intuition (Water) and applied through your intellect (Air) which manifest through your physical body (Earth)."
