In Wicca and Pagan traditions, the five elements also play an important role in rituals. Practitioners might call upon Earth, Air, Fire, Water, and Spirit (similar to Space) during ceremonies. Each element is associated with a direction on the compass and symbolic tools — Earth with the pentacle, Fire with the wand, Air with the sword, Water with the chalice, and Spirit with the overall circle. This ritualistic system gives a sense of connection with nature and the cosmos.
