Directions
 |
The above directions are as practiced by me
in Newcastle on the East Coast of Australia. Other people arrange the
directional alignments by reversing the traditional attributions. For
example, North (Fire), East (Water), West (Air) and South (Earth).
Fire in North - As Australia is below the Equator, the further North one travels here the hotter it gets. I have therefore placed Fire in North. Earth in West - Living on the East Coast, the bulk of the continent of Australia is the the West on us. Therefore, West is Earth. Air is South - It is from the South that some of our strongest and most welcome winds blow. Therefore, South is Air. Water is East - On this Coast, the great Pacific Ocean lies to the East. I live about 1 minute from a beautiful beach. The city of Newcastle has many beaches along its coast. Therefore, Water is in the East. |
