It's possible that Celestia isn't capable of wielding the Elements. As much as she desires Twilight to learn about the magic of friendship, little evidence has been shown that she has very many friends herself. Not that I blame her - when you're immortal, it has to be hard to see everypony you grow close to eventually grow old and die. Anyways, the mane six, through their friendship and personality traits, may be the only ones capable of wielding the Elements.

That's my take, at least.
