Welcome to Esa's Valley

We live within arcane lore, secret knowledge. We thrive on the edges, the fringes, the places where things grow and die, ravel and unravel, in the mists where this world bleeds into the other. If you seek knowledge, learn patience, for we guard our secrets well. The deepest answers will only come to the skillful questioner and those who know how to listen. – Crane Practitioner

The Power of Water and Fire

Fire gives us the fast, quick movement. It is the spark that ignites our intention with explosive power and energy.

Water is the deep, steady energy. The one that has the power to hold, grow, and deepen the effect of our intention.

Water and Fire, although seeming to be opposing elements, can actually have a harmonious and very fruitful balance in spell work. The Fire to give it a strong start and a big boost of energy, and the water to carry it out over a long period of time, deepening the effects.

My personal favorite way to do this is with a bowl of water and a floating candle. You can add sigils, Runes, or Seals to the candle – and add other helper spirits such as herbs and oils to the water. You can also infuse the water with your Voice speak your intention to it), and use specialty waters such as Moon or Sun Water.

Experiment for yourself and discover the combined power between these two elements!
