there isnt a weak element or strong really. They all have good qualities some are harder to control for each individual person. For example im air and can control air very easily but my friend who is fire finds it more difficult.

The elements are meant to be in balance, like rock-paper-scissors. Earth is the opposite of Air, Water of Fire. Air feeds Fire, Water feeds Earth. Earth can be washed away by Water, Water can be boiled by Fire, Fire can be blown out by Air, Air can be blocked -- or suffocated -- by Earth. They all weave together, in a system of give and take.
Well i like Air element the most but i fails everytime i try to controll/use it also i found only air call spell to work for me buj it also happens only some times

Last time i checked there are FIVE BASIC elements, Lightning is another, then following the nature element rules, there are others by combining two elements.
Land + Water = Wood
Water + Wind = Ice
Fire + Earth = Magma/Lava
Wind + Lightning = Light
Fire + Wind = Flight
So on and so on, theres 5 basic elements, and a multiple of 20 by combining 2 elements together. I'll message you ALL the elements if you wish, or I could just post them.

Lightning is not a traditional element, though personally I think it deserves some sort of special recognition as a natural force in magickal workings. The 5th element is usually considered some form of Spirit or Divinity, sometimes called Akasha (the name in Hindu teachings).
Also, the definition of an element is something that can not be broken down into simpler components, so those combinations you have there are not true elements... I'd consider them manifestations of The Elements interacting, how they work together to create and shape nature.

I've often viewed lightning as an aspect of fire. If you consider static charge as a lesser form of lightning, it is created through friction, to some extent. Much like many other forms of heat and, eventually, fire.
It is certainly wild, fascinating, and mysterious... but it has a great deal in common with the feel of fire, while still having much of air.
Consider the "feel" of lightning alongside other elements.
