Air, Water, Earth and Fire heed my call! (8)

Solvent of desire… The perfume is just a decoy.
That wich carries the blow is hidden… In which bottle the true scent lies?

All of this world is crafted from the four elements.
Elements are the soul of all that is real. Those are the brickstones of creation.All that is physical has much earth in it, but the fire is the very soul of all matter. Air and Water are the most sublte substances. The body roughly shares the element of earth. Fire is to subtle to be contained by crafts and bottles. The very soul is made from a form of fire.

The scent shares the element of air. Air can hardly be contained. Air is wind, air is intelect, air is thougt. It afflicts the head, which sents it to the rest of the body.

Potions share the element of water. Water can be contained, and blends to the form of that which contains it. Water is emotion, dream, desire. It afflicts the belly, which sents it to the rest of your body.

Men has most fire in it, for he draws divine light from heavens into this world, and are more prone to intelect which feeds the will(which is fire). Women has most water in it since they breed new life on earth, and are more proned to emotions that which forges the phisical reality(which is earth).

Woman loves the man, as man loves the woman. Each other they form one true element. When there is no love, equilibrium is lost. To much fire in men burns the earth with wars and feuds, and to much water in women is shed in useless emotivity and lusts.

Air feeds the Fire as intelect feeds the willpower. Together they form desire.
Water feeds the Earth as emotion is the true scent of what we call real.

Air and Earth are separated, for one is subtle and the other one is rough. Water and Fire are opposed, since they dim eachother.

The perfume is both water and air.
It is contained as water, but his aerial essence lifts it up in vapours.

The scent is the first impresion. It draws attention. It is a signal. It allerts the sense, so the solvent might carry a better blow.
But you were allways thinking that the solvent itself does the magick. It merely helps it. Know this secret, and share it not:
The solvent itself is powerless. The solvent reacts with your true scent, amplifies it, and carries it away. Your true scent will be felt and known.

Some have beter scents than others. That’s why some are loved and some are hated. The “True Scent” are the vapours from which the soul breaths. If you can change your soul, your true scent can be changed. Soul is changed by the way you feed it’s fire…

…as you see, things are not simple, for all are connected with tousands invisible strings that could not be seen by any mortal being.
Trough knowledge and discipline you might pull some strings that tie this world, and make it bend to your will.
But never pull to hard, for you never know all that will happen.

This is the secret of my art, and I hope I leave it in good hands.
