The mystic of elemental magic lies in its connection with the fundamental forces of nature. It taps into the raw power of the elements – earth, air, fire, and water – and harnesses their energy for various purposes. Elemental magic has been practiced by different cultures for centuries, often associated with spiritual beliefs and rituals. It is believed that each element possesses unique qualities and characteristics that can be channeled through rituals, spells, and incantations. **Earth** represents stability, grounding, and strength. Practitioners of earth magic often work with crystals, herbs, and rituals that enhance these qualities.
Despite my self proclaimed love for the Cloak of Levitation, you might notice that it isn’t on Doctor Strange’s square. This, ladies and gentlemen, is what happens when we design and knit things in advance. My brother-in-law, who actually knows a bit about Stephen Strange, said that we had to put the Eye of Agamotto on the square. The amulet is in the movie and plays a pivotal role, but — as the MCU is want to do — they gave it a sleeker design. I like the older version of the amulet though.
And to be honest, I don t remember much about it other than the fact that I drooled over Benedict s cheekbones, wished he would shave, fell in love with the Cloak of Levitation, and giggled through most of the Easter Egg with Thor.

2017 Geek-A-Long: Dr. Strange
My gut instinct says to fill this post with gifs of Benedict Cumberbatch as Dr. Strange with the Cloak of Levitation, because let’s all be honest here, his red cloak was the real MVP of that movie. I mean, it was basically the cooler older brother to Carpet from Disney’s Aladdin.
In all seriousness though, normally I like to get super nerdy and lay down some comic book history, but I know zero things about Doctor Strange. Okay, maybe not ZERO thing, but it’s a short list. Everything I know about the magical superhero comes from the movie . And to be honest, I don’t remember much about it other than the fact that I drooled over Benedict’s cheekbones, wished he would shave, fell in love with the Cloak of Levitation, and giggled through most of the Easter Egg with Thor. Normally, I don’t care for the Thor movies, but I am 100 percent ready to see a Doctor Strange/Loki team-up!

If you haven’t seen the movie yet or read the comic books, the Eye of Agamotto is the amulet that Dr. Strange wears around his neck. Like most items of power in the Marvel Universe, it has a long history. The gist of it, however, is that it allows the wearer to see through illusions and view past events. It does a few other tricks as well, but if you’re a big fan of the MCU, you’ve probably already guessed that it contains an infinity stone. Shocking, I know.
Whether you’re knitting, crocheting, or cross stitching this square, you can download the Doctor Strange pattern here, featuring the Eye of Agamotto amulet. Instructions and charts for both knit and crochet are listed in the pattern. When you’re finished making it, don’t forget to Instagram your squares at us @lattesandllamasyarn with the hashtag #geekalong!

Reviews for "Elemental Magic: The Path to Elemental Mastery"
1. Sharon - 1 star
"The mystic of elemental magic was a disappointment for me. The story felt cliché and lacked originality. The characters were one-dimensional and I didn't feel invested in their journey at all. The writing style was also quite poor, with awkward and clunky sentences that made it difficult to follow the plot. Overall, I found this book to be a waste of time and would not recommend it."
2. Michael - 2 stars
"While "The mystic of elemental magic" had an intriguing premise, it failed to deliver on its potential. The pacing was slow and the story dragged on for far too long, with unnecessary subplots that added nothing to the overall plot. The world-building was also lacking, leaving me confused and disengaged from the setting. Additionally, the dialogue felt forced and unnatural, making it difficult to connect with the characters. This book had potential, but it fell short of my expectations."
3. Emily - 1 star
"I was excited to read "The mystic of elemental magic" based on the positive reviews, but I was sorely disappointed. The writing was amateurish and filled with grammatical errors that distracted from the story. The characters were shallow and lacked any depth or development. The magic system was poorly explained and left me scratching my head. Overall, this book was a major letdown and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for a good fantasy read."
