A deep dive into a deceptively simple topic

_The Four Elements of the Wise_ presents layers upon layers upon layers of knowledge concerning the elements in the Western magical tradition generally and the author's own practice specifically. My previous experience with elemental forces comes from Tibetan Bon Buddhism, and much here was new to me, but Mr. Dominguez's explanations are lucid and engaging. He is especially skilled at making helpful analogies but also reminding the reader that they _are_ analogies, the map and not the territory. At the same time, he never oversimplifies or dilutes the information presented. I especially appreciated his gentle reminders that 1) there is no one "right" set of associations, directions, etc. for the elements, and yet 2) coherence matters, and it's best to work consistently within a single tradition (or set of compatible traditions) and not to force or invent connections between fundamentally different systems.There's a lot in this book that I recognize I'm not ready for - one of its great strengths is that it will reward continued study and re-reading over the long haul. It also contains some concepts that I will probably never use, which is not a bad thing. Mr. Dominguez provides a range of tools and concepts, from the simple to the dizzyingly complex, and it's up to the reader to decide which best suit the occasion, purpose, and their own skill set and ritual style. Overall, I can imagine no better or wiser guide to working with the elements than this book.

Incredible and deep writing - pace yourself

This incredible author writes deeply on his subject. You can scan the book and get some basic information about this topic; however, it is best to read in sections and give yourself time to absorb what you read and how it may or may not relate to your life and your spiritual practice. I highly recommend this book - It is FANTASTIC!

Ideas and advices, kinda scarce magical practices

It's a good book, full of meditations, ideas and hints. Some things, though need few more detailed explanations. Like for ex. step by step explanation how to build "cone of power" inside witches pyramid and not just hints about it. Otherwise, interesting book, well done by publisher also.

An essential addition to any magical / Pagan library

Ivo Dominguez Jr. is one of the best contemporary magical authors. His ability to convey complex theory in ways that are understandable is masterful. Most important, though, is that his work is deeply practical. More than anyone else, Ivo's work has enriched my actual practice. Since I began practicing decades ago I have always worked with the elements. I have read a ton of materials over the years, and I can attest that I still learned from this text. I wish it had been available when I was coming up. I cannot recommend this book highly enough.

Inspiring both for beginners and adept practitioners

This well-written book offers fresh insight into certain areas of elemental magick that are not normally covered in other books. I particularly appreciated the dive into the sub-elements and the platonic solids, as these sections of the discussion caused me to consider aspects of my relationships with the elements that I had not previously explored. I highly recommend this intelligently written work.

Wise is correct

I loved this book. It's not a floofy woo woo book but wise knowledgeable and grounded words.I thought I knew everything I needed to know about the elements and what they do. Air knowledge, Fire passion and purpose, Water emotions, Earth manifestations. Simple, right? Not so much. That's like knowing a person's name but not who they are.This book is a must have for any serious witch who wants more than random internet enlightenment.

Renewing our Connections and Deepening our Understanding

In this book Ivo Dominguez Jr. explores the four elements on many levels. This book will benefit all practitioners of magick as it explores each element’s lore, uses and applications in ritual, as well as use in personal practice in the physical realm and on many planes of being. Ivo Dominguez Jr. also presents meditations on the four elements and explains their significance, layers of connections, and methods of engagement in a manner that deepened my understanding and renewed my connection to their energies.
