The classical five elements of alchemy are Spirit, Air, Fire, Water and Earth, each holding it's own attributes and qualities. scientifically, this is a natural sequence; oxygen is reguired for combustion to occur, combustion creates liquid as a by-product, and liquid collects solids and moves them into formation. The elements themselves are formed from the element of spirit transmuting through the two qualities of humidity and tempurature, producing a warm and wet air, a warm and dry fire, a cool and wet water, and a cool and dry earth; the element of spirit being that which binds them in a progressive cycle.
