Typically, we visualize the four Platonic elements of Earth, Air, Fire, and Water and Spirit as powerful sources of energy, and that Nature is a manifestation of Deity. We practice rituals to attune ourselves with the the Earth's rhythm of life forces and celebrate festivals (sabbats) that renew a sense of living communion with natural cycles, with the changes of the seasons and the land. We intuit no distinction between spiritual and material, sacred and secular. In perfect love and perfect trust, merry shall we meet.
