Interactions with Other Elements
Air (Swords) & Earth (Pentacles)
Energy: Weakens
Description: Effective combination. While earth attempts to give some stability to air, it fails to work on an overactive mind. Air fails to be moved, contained, or changed by earth. Imagine someone who fails to accept a reality check.
Energy: Strengthens
Description: Powerful but can be destructive. Air unleashed can be unstable and disconnected from reality. Sometimes this element combination can indicate cruelty and ruthlessness, but in a colder, more strategic expression than, say, the double fire combination.
Air (Swords) & Fire (Wands)
Energy: Supportive
Description: Fire brings enthusiasm and drive to a well-thought-out plan created by air’s intellect and communicative ability. Thoughts and ideas are propelled forward with fire’s inspiration, lighting a spark that leads to creative action.
Air (Swords) & Water (Cups)
Energy: Neutral
Description: Water brings some tenderness to an otherwise very stark and controlling element. Air’s talent for communication can be driven by water’s emotions; expression of feelings can lead to powerful changes in this combination.
