On entering the Kingdom of the Magic Elemental of Nature, we must first recognise that according to the hermetic principle of correspondence:
"As above, so below", "As within, so without".
We as creatures made of Nature herself are not external to her, but yes, we are all part of the same gigantic body of this Blessed Mother Goddess. Therefore, Nature is not merely external to us, but penetrates and permeates us deeply.
The same elements that form the outer nature are also the trainers of our inner nature, both biological and psychological. Therefore, earth, water, air and fire constantly create and influence our particular nature.
Man is the fifth element, the etheric principle, the consciousness behind the merely instinctive and mechanical nature. Therefore, if we are to exercise the divine inheritance given to man to be the King of Nature, we must first cease to be merely rational animals and master our lower nature in order that the higher may flourish.

How to master the atomic elementals of our inner nature?
Never will a fickle and capricious person rule the Sylphs of nature. Never will a lazy, cold and fickle man be the absolute master of the Undines of the waters or the Nereids of the seas.
Anger irritates the fire salamanders and concupiscence makes, in fact, a plaything for the gnomes or pygmies of the mineral kingdom whoever wants to make use of them.
One must be agile and active like the Sylphs, flexible and adaptable like the Undines and Nereids. Energetic and strong like the salamanders, hard-working and patient like the gnomes and pygmies. In a word, it is urgent, indispensable to overcome the inner elementals with your strength and never let yourself be dominated by their weaknesses.
When the magician has died to himself, all nature will obey him.
How could we command the elementals of nature if we do not learn to govern the atomic elementals of our own organism?
The atomic salamanders found in blood and sex burn frightfully with our animal passions. The atomic sylphs of our own vital airs, in the service of the mechanical imagination (do not confuse this with the objective conscious imagination), play with our lewd and perverse thoughts.
The atomic undines of the sacred sperm always give rise to frightful sexual storms. The atomic gnomes of flesh and bones enjoy laziness, gluttony and concupiscence.
It is urgent to know how to exorcise, order and subdue the atomic elementals of our own body.
Every plant is the physical body of a vegetable elemental, every tree, every grass, however insignificant it may be, has its own particular elemental. This is not to say that the elementals of plants and trees live constantly in their immobile bodies; this would be absurd and unjust. The plant elementals are free to enter and leave their bodies at will.
Normally, elementary creatures in the plant kingdom are classified as families. One is the orange family, another the mint family, another the pine family, etc., etc., etc., etc., etc. Each family has its own temple in Eden, in the fourth dimension...
To master our own inner nature it is necessary to know ourselves deeply, to explore ourselves, to observe in detail our actions, thoughts and emotions. To become the true Kings of Nature, of our inner nature and consequently of our outer nature.
