Air, the breath of life, the wings, the power of movement, freedom, and intellect. It’s the invisible and intangible force that shapes our lives. Air fills lungs, circulates and moves in currents. Air is a carrier, through its movement it brings sounds, allows the flying animals to travel in the sky and transports seeds and leaves fertilizing the soil. Air moves water and clouds and contributes to the water cycle. Air is the energy that allows us to breath and to speak powerful word of wisdom and to communicate with others. It's the energy that set us free through ideas and dreams and that brings new beginnings. Just as the wind flows without boundaries, the air encourages us to embrace change and release attachments. It symbolizes the unrestricted nature of the mind and the limitless potential for growth.
