Well it's got to be something that resembles a fertility symbol. The Axe certainly, if looked at a certain angle, could looked like the female genitalia. Of course a staff is a phallic symbol so either could possibly be used. Why did I choose the staff as the Earth's weapon? Because there were already 4 (Mace, Trident, Sword, Spear (or Bow, I haven't decided which)) things designed specifically to cause death and destruction and I didn't think another was needed. Indeed I thought instead the Earth's weapon should be made to heal and not to destroy. Therefore I chose the staff because it is certainly less war-like (if you will) than the axe.
Sound good?
