Earth Witchcraft: The Earth Element uses grounding, forest bathing, and earthing energy to connect with Mother Earth in spellcraft with Plants By Laurali! This is part of my spellcraft series on the four elements and the Chinese elements and how to use them in the craft.

When I think of the earth element, I think of the warm, cozy creature comforts of Mother Earth. I think of soil, trees, plants, and gardens. I think of a feeling of belonging and a simple place in time.

How many times have you been in a bad mood and have taken a trip to the forest or beach, only to be instantly brought back to life? The natural remedy of the earth element heals, restores, and replenishes. It is loving, caring, and nurturing in its own right.

What if you could take the magic of nature and bring it into your craft? The majority of my practice as a green witch uses the earth element. Typically, I’ll add a second element, but the first is always earth-based.

My daily practice always includes soil, plants, herbs, and the grounding energy of mushroom witchcraft. Anything belonging to the earth, anything plant-based makes for down-to-earth spell ingredients that are naturally healing and restorative.

Using the earth element in your practice doesn’t have to be complicated. It shouldn’t be. The earth simplifies things, it brings it back to a place of calm and peacefulness, which is something we should all strive for in our practice.

In green witchery, I use the natural resources that are all around me. Everything from a stick to a rock formation can be used in my practice. Even something as mundane as graveyard dirt can be used as a powerful spell ingredient to create change!

Today, I am going to talk about earth witchcraft and how to incorporate the element of earth into your green witchcraft practice! The magical properties of the earth can be used in everything from green kitchen witch recipes to natural remedies. Let’s get started, shall we?
