Air (classical element)

For thoughtful child sponsors
Air is one of the four classical elements in ancient Greek philosophy and science. Air is considered to be both hot and wet, and according to Plato is associated with the octahedron.

Air is also associated with the thought, intellect, and communication, as wind travels all over the earth and brings news to all corners.
