Despite its capacity to bend space and distance, Correspondence functions only on whole Patterns unless combined with the various Pattern Spheres. That is, it's impossible to just teleport away someone's heart with Correspondence alone. In essence, Correspondence does not affect Patterns directly; such manipulations must be done with other magic. Correspondence simply lets those Patterns be affected, whole and complete, in changes of space or distance. If the mage wants to use Pattern Spheres to affect something with Correspondence, she's limited by the Correspondence level (if it's lower than the Pattern Sphere). Thus, a mage can teleport something with just Correspondence, but if she wants to change its Pattern at a distance, her skill with Correspondence is as important as her skill with the other Sphere.

(M:tA game stuff) It's weird how the Space Arcanum and Correspondence Sphere synesthetically feel #FF0000 red to me, even though it doesn't feel like it's hot or in motion or otherwise energetic. I think the reason it feels red has more to do with red pens, stamps, and spell check underlines: notations around more real objects indicating things about their status and how well they Correspond to their True Names, and how they should be changed (and changed in a way where it switches from one to the other, rather than pushed there as a motion). Red is a good stationary warding color.
