THE ELEMENT OF FIRE
Along with its fuel
Fire is raw.
It can be rude.
Biting. Searing. Blazing!
It flicks and licks and whips.
It is Crackle-POP!
A log in the fireplace.
Or WHUMPH!
Spark on dry tinder.
Fire ravages. Burns bridges.
It explodes to the sky and chars the very clouds!
It is the ravenous, noxious volcano!!
IT IS THE SUPERNOVA
RAGING OUT OF CONTROL!!!
Fire is the sacred ember.
It is the purifying light.
It is is the single candle
harboring hope in the blackest night.
Domain of the Heart
Warmth. Invitation. Comfort.
Fire is Home.
Hearth.
Heart.
It is sunlight upon an upturned face.
The touch of a loved one and the warmth in our hand when we touch them back.
It is the heat of sensuality.
Sexuality.
The very spark of the Life Force.
Each Element
in this System builds upon
the foundation of the previous ones.
Realm of Passion & Emotion
Thump-thump ...
Thump-thump ...
Thump-thump ...
Love. Hate.
Grief, excitement, terror!
A full breath lets it hit.
Desire. Repugnance.
Tenderness, insult, jealousy.
FURY!
Locking down the cage of the heart stops it from being expressed.
A held breath can stop it from even being felt in the body.
Ground.
Now inhale...
Woo-sahhhhhhhhhhh...

FIRE: Domain of the Heart
Let me tell you a tale of my heart. Each Element builds upon the one that came before it. EARTH 🔹 AIR 🔸 FIRE… There is a reason why many traditions caution emotion. "Guard your heart," they say. And there's something to that. But with my feet...
FIRE: Realm of Emotion
I don’t believe in "good" or "bad" emotions. I only believe in better and worse moments of letting them run through my body. Better and worse moments of expressing them. Better and worse ways of doing so in any given situation.

Welcome To the Playground
Hello there! Is this your first time here? Oh, you're not familiar with my arts and adventures? Well, come on in! And you--hi! You followed my breadcrumbs over here? Shweeeet. Please do NOT keep your hands and faces inside the vehicle, but do be aware of the dangers inherent in waving them about in the wind. Also dangerous: tinkering with my toys.
