The southeast panel depicts the relationship between the earth element and wisdom. In Dobberfuhl’s words, wisdom is connected to the earth in the piece because it can be "attributed to a solid foundation, and expanse of time, and the strong rhythms of the earth". The seated figure in the panel represents wisdom, which is being passed on to the young figures as they float forward into the unknown. The panels range in size from 10x22 to 10x28 feet.
