# In Greek and Egyptian mythology
Earth, Air, Fire, Water, Chaos and The Human Spirit were all elements.

Heart however is predominantly muscle tissue and ventricles.

However, the greeks had Chaos and Spirit as one. The pentagram symbol with it's point upwards represents the five elements, demonstrating the dominance of the Spirit over the physical world. Hence why Satanists inver the pentagram and have it point down, to represent the dominance of the physical over the human spirit.

Now you know.

# to weigh your head down.
Otherwise your head would just be a big flesh balloon, and you'd float off into trees all the time.
