Fire is transformation; it is the life-giving generative powers of the sun. Fire is emblematic of the masculine deity in many cultures and is element of ferverant intensity, aspiration and personal power.
Fire is bright, brilliant and flamboyant. Unfortunately, it is neither stable nor logical. Fire leaps intuitively to grasp the moment for little regard for what is around it. Fire is reckless, seeking and passionate; it knows only itself.
Fire is the force that motivates and drives all living organisms. Fire along with air creates energy, gets us going, and produces stamina. It has been said that what the mind can imagine (Air), the will (Fire) can create.
Fire is the active element within us that pushes toward the new by getting rid of the old.
