The Sphere of Life, one of the twelve recognized Spheres of magic by the College Esoterica, is commonly associated with the arts of healing, and so it is often used. However, it also involves other aspects of life, such as mutation and even disease. Some mages of this Sphere may in fact specialize in the art of DEATH, as ironic as it may seem. Life Mages traditionally wear robes in a rainbow of colors in their greatest rituals, but it is not uncommon for many of them to opt for white robes or those of more drab colors, for the sake of convenience. The rune of their Sphere is "The Tree", which is also the symbol for the planet Arcadia. According to Rephidim scholarship, the Sphere of Life is considered to be associated with the Sphere of Fire (Fire, Sphere of), and diametrically opposed to the Sphere of Dream (Dream, Sphere of), though there is some disagreement on this arrangement of the Spheres.
