The element of Fire is the creative life force energy that animates the world as we know it. It lives in the heat that our bodies both create and give off. Fire is behind the creation of new cells and inspirations, and also in the purging of what’s been stuck or stagnant in the body and mind through sweat, and epic breakthroughs. 

Just as all life needs the light and warmth of the Sun to animate itself into existence, so too does the mind need to be illuminated by the warmth and light of inspiration and insight in order to grow and transform. What is created through the lens of fire is here to move you significantly, to change your perception of the world, to instigate action. It represents the divine masculine energy of taking physical action, and of progression, protection, leadership and physical healing.

Fire is the great Initiator. Corresponding to the energy of the first sign of the Zodiac, Aries, it embodies the archetype of the fierce warrior, willing to cut through the old in order to welcome in the new. The element of Fire is representative of the divine Will, the driving force that raises the heat of passion to points of no return; when action must be taken. It is the raw, unfiltered expression of passion, which manifests itself through displays of intense emotion, and through deeply felt artistic expressions that cannot be looked away from. 

Fire captivates the senses through it’s unpredictable nature. It rises, it jumps, it scorches, it turns everything it touches to ashes either to be recycled or to create something profoundly new. It gives us the courage to be our authentic, unapologetic selves, helping us to rise to the occasion in stating our place, our opinions, our powerful truth. It is not in service of pleasing others or making others feel comfortable, Fire is here to illuminate conflicting energies with the greater wisdom of inspiring divine truth to unfold.
