Pentacle Point:
Power. It is the one pentacle point that is the same on both the Iron and Pearl Pentacles. On the Iron, it is personal power, on the Pearl, the power of the commons, of the organized force working together. This is power to create, not power over other people or places. Power to create is our birthright as dense beings. We can move energy to matter and back again.
Color associations:
Earth has two, green and black. Green like the trees, Black like the soil that holds the web of life.
Direction:
North, life, and growth.
Tool:
The Drum. The nature of sound is waves. It is both energetic and physical force. The drum is a tool to shift the world, and our consciousness.
Guardian:
Of all the Guardians, North is perhaps one of the strangest. They are not as inclined to change their appearance. They also like to practice a little morning chiropractic if they feel like your antennae need adjusting. It’s important to be clear, as this is where will is executed. To make something take form, one must be specific, even while understanding that all creations, be they born of will or necessity, have their own autonomy. You cannot control what you birth.
Gate between:
The Kunti Tree. She is just off the parking lot in Samuel P. Taylor Park. Across from a tall stump that steams in the morning sun, she is a tall hollow redwood with a burl that looks like a vulva. Bring her gifts of flowers and water, lean into her and look up her black chimney to the sky and listen.
Gate within:
The Solar Plexis. Central to the body, sensitive to the impact of sound. The witch’s greatest tool is their body. This is where it all begins.
