Circuli Maioris (Outer Circle) is a very tricky and tedious one. For some, it could take months or a lifetime to unlock such gate. Through many experiments, practices and research later, many practitioners of the Aether had found a guaranteed solution. However, would take serious dedication and sacrifice: Chakras.
Chakras are the various focal points in the subtle body used in a variety of ancient meditation practices, collectively denominated as Tantra, or the esoteric or inner traditions of Hinduism.
The concept is found in the early traditions of Hinduism. Beliefs differ between the Indian religions, with many Buddhist texts consistently mentioning five chakras, while Hindu sources offer six or even seven. Early Sanskrit texts speak of them both as meditative visualizations combining flowers and mantras and as physical entities in the body. Some modern interpreters speak of them as complexes of electromagnetic variety, the precise degree and variety of which directly arise from a synthetic average of all positive and negative so-called "fields", thus eventuating the complex Nadi. Within kundalini yoga, the techniques of breath exercises, visualizations, mudras, bandhas, kriyas, and mantras are focused on manipulating the flow of subtle energy through chakras.
The Chakras are traditionally considered meditation aids. The yogi progresses from lower chakras to the highest chakra blossoming in the crown of the head, internalizing the journey of spiritual ascent. In both the Hindu and Buddhist kundalini or candali traditions, the chakras are pierced by a dormant energy residing near or in the lowest chakra.
To unlock Circuli Maioris gate of your respected element, you would first have to master the seven-chakra system. The common new age description of these six chakras and the seventh point known as Sahasrara. This new age version incorporates the Newtonian colors that were unknown when these systems were created:

* Sahasrara "Thousand-petaled" – Highest spiritual centre, pure consciousness, containing neither object nor subject. When the feminine Kundalini Shakti rises to this point, it unites with the masculine Shiva, giving self-realization and samadhi. In esoteric Buddhism, it is called Mahasukha, the petal lotus of "Great Bliss" corresponding to the fourth state of Four Noble Truths.
* Ajna "Command" – Guru chakra or third-eye chakra, the subtle center of energy, where the tantra guru touches the seeker during the initiation ritual (saktipata). He or she commands the awakened kundalini to pass through this centre.
* Vishuddha "Purest" – The Vishuddha is iconographically represented with 16 petals covered with the sixteen Sanskrit vowels. It is associated with the element of space (akasha) and has the seed syllable of the space element Ham at its centre. The residing deity is Panchavaktra shiva, with 5 heads and 4 arms, and the Shakti is Shakini. In esoteric Buddhism, it is called Sambhoga and is generally considered to be the petal lotus of "Enjoyment" corresponding to the third state of Four Noble Truths.
* Anahata "Unstruck" – Within it is a yantra of two intersecting triangles, forming a hexagram, symbolising a union of the male and female as well as being the esoteric symbol for the element of air (vayu). The seed mantra of air, Yam, is at its centre. The presiding deity is Ishana Rudra Shiva, and the Shakti is Kakini. In esoteric Buddhism, this Chakra is called Dharma and is generally considered to be the petal lotus of "Essential nature" and corresponding to the second state of Four Noble Truths.
* Manipura "Jewel city" – For the Nath yogi meditation system, this is described as the Madhyama-Shakti or the intermediate stage of self-discovery. This chakra is represented as an upward pointing triangle representing fire in the middle of a lotus with ten petals. The seed syllable for fire is at its center Ram. The presiding deity is Braddha Rudra, with Lakini as the Shakti.
* Svadhishthana "Where the self is established" – Svadhisthana is represented with a lotus within which is a crescent moon symbolizing the water element. The seed mantra in its center is Vam representing water. The presiding deity is Brahma, with the Shakti being Rakini (or Chakini). In esoteric Buddhism, it is called Nirmana, the petal lotus of "Creation" and corresponding to the first state of Four Noble Truths.
* Muladhara "Root" – Dormant Kundalini is often said to be resting here, wrapped three and a half, or seven or twelve times. Sometimes she is wrapped around the black Svayambhu linga, the lowest of three obstructions to her full rising (also known as knots or granthis). It is symbolised as a four-petaled lotus with a yellow square at its center representing the element of earth. The seed syllable is Lam for the earth element (pronounced lum),. All sounds, words and mantras in their dormant form rest in the muladhara chakra, where Ganesha resides, while the Shakti is Dakini. The associated animal is the elephant.

Using such an Aethereal gate, you would have to naturally unlock and master Ignis and Fulgur. Having such abilities takes a lot of mental resilience, being able to use mentality-based skills like ESP. Usually, users of such an Aethereal gate can create astral projections of themselves or shadow clones to throw off their enemies or opponents.
Sun (Solem)
https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FpOASUTv.jpg [https://i.imgur.com/pOASUTv.jpg]
Using such an Aethereal gate, you would have to naturally unlock and master Ari’s and Sidera. This is pretty much a straightforward yet candid Aethereal gate to use. If you can manipulate the stars in the sky and harness their cosmic power, you can harness the sun which is just another star in the sky. Even then, the sun has its own cost of control and purposes that one needs to truly understand Ari’s and Sidera to master Solem. This Aethereal gate has the power to give nourishment of living organisms but such overabundance can be deadly and toxic. Operating such a balance is needed to perform the Aethereal gate.
Metal (Metallum)

Using such an Aethereal gate, you would have to naturally unlock and master Terrae and Botanicae. This is pretty much a straightforward yet candid Aethereal gate to use. If you can manipulate the earth and plant life, you can manage the minerals within them like metal. However, to use such powers takes a lot of stamina and endurance, even with those who use Metallum for techno-kinetic purposes.
Time (Tempus)
https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FPG40DSJ.jpg [https://i.imgur.com/PG40DSJ.jpg]
Using such an Aethereal gate, you would have to naturally unlock and master Aqua and Glacies. Tempus deals with time like the flowing water down the stream. Many advanced users take advantage of their offensive abilities like gravity. But those who have mastered it cannot only predict the future but can stop time. On contrary unbelief, it is impossible to time travel even with this Aethereal gate unlocked and mastered, so much of people’s chagrin.
