Looking at our personal connection with the five elements, it’s is important to remember that the power of fire can be used for both good and bad. If you’re a typically ‘fiery’ person, do you use that power to empower and light up others, or do you allow it to be destructive? Fire can be creative as it is the catalyst for energu, but it can also be destructive if we don’t know how to manage it as fire can consume everything in its path. It has a fast and forceful power and energy that is positive and uplifting but can be frightening if it gets out of control.

Fire is the only one of the four elements that cannot exist without feeding on something else and it has the power to transform everything it touches.

In Feng Shui the element of fire embodies our enthusiasm, warm feeling, movement and spiritual radiance.

The mystic poet Rumi says that in each moment the fire rages, it will burn away a hundred veils, and carry you a thousand steps towards your goal.
