Charmed - Elements of the Spiritual Nexus Beneath the Manor

LizMoore30 · 12-22-2004, 03:13 PM

According to Prue in "Is There a Woogy in the House?", the Halliwell manor was located in the center of five points from locations symbolizing the elements of the pentagram. And because of this, the Halliwell manor is located upon a spiritual nexus.

From "Is There a Woogy in the House?":

Quote:

Prue: Okay, to find a way back in, we have to know what we’re up against. The professor said that a true spiritual nexus is equal distance from the five elements. So, that’s earth, fire, water, wood and metal.

The five elements that Prue had listed, are connected with Chinese philosophy, not Wiccan philosophy.

Chinese Elements - Earth, Fire, Water, Wood and Metal.

Wiccan Elements - Earth, Fire, Water, Air and Spirit.

Does this mean that the Halliwell manor is located in the middle of Chinese spiritual nexus?

I don't now about the elements but I was just thinking...

It was in that episode that Phoebe embraced her dark side and went from good witch 2 bad witch.
Piper reassured her that she wasn’t an evil person & that the reason why she embraced her dark side was because she had a stronger connection to the house – due to the fact that she was the only sister born in the house.

Now, I was just thinking could this be another possible reason why baby Wyatt grows up 2 be evil? - Since he was was born in the Manor unlike Chris, who was born in a hospital.

I find that whole scenario ridiculous. Everyone should have a 50/50 chance of turning either good or evil - no matter where they are born. I've seen Prue, Piper and Paige display a tendency - equal to Phoebe and Wyatt - for evil.

I never really understood the Nexus thing, to be honest. LOL

it didn't help that the concept kept changing

I wouldn't be surprised if using the Chinese elements was a mix up

That or they intentionally switched it because Wood and Metal are easier to find on a map than Air and Spirit

I didnt expect the Metal one tbh

**BlondieLeigh** · 09-25-2017, 10:20 AM

Still easier to find that spirit

**runawaaay** · 10-02-2017, 10:51 AM

true

**BlondieLeigh** · 10-03-2017, 08:08 AM

Could have been an intentional change because of that. Or a mistake.

**runawaaay** · 10-06-2017, 10:40 AM

i didn't really paid much attention to it

**BlondieLeigh** · 10-06-2017, 01:43 PM

I didn't either, tbh.

**BlondieLeigh** · 10-10-2017, 01:03 PM

Never really noticed there was an error there.

**runawaaay** · 10-12-2017, 06:46 AM
