Fire element

Fire has been an important part of all cultures and religions from pre-history to modern day and was vital to the development of civilization. It has been regarded in many different contexts throughout history, but especially as a metaphysical constant of the world. 

The element of Fire is both creative and destructive. It is fire that we and our ancestors used to warm our homes, we use it to cook our food, we sit around it to ward of the darkness of night, and it fuels our passions. Fire, unlike the other elements, does not exist in a natural state. Its physical form can only take place by consuming some other element. Fire is the transformer, converting the energy of other objects into other forms: heat, light, ash, and smoke.

The manifestations of this power, can be felt as the warmth and light of the Sun, the crackling of logs and smell of smoke from a burning fire... the transformational flame of a candle, immersing yourself in the energy of Fire.

Controlling the flames

In order to gain benefit from the energy of this element, we need to control Fire's destructive aspect. When we light a candle, we are not only calling upon the energy of Fire, we are also limiting its power. This destructive aspect should not be seen as negative, forest fires, actually help, clearing away underbrush and encouraging seeds lying dormant within the Earth to burst forth into new life.

Properties and worship

The properties of Fire are providing heat, making things fruitful, bringing light and giving life to all things. but it can also consume all things and ultimately bring darkness, making all things barren.

Redness

The sunrise and sunset and autumn leaves, magma flowing from the bowels of earth and flames dancing... warmth that nourishes and heals. A red moon rising. Blood of the prey, dripping. Life and death walk together in redness.

The red color is everywhere in Aquila’s world and has deep cosmological meaning.

Red is the color of extremes. It’s the color of passionate love, seduction, violence, danger, anger, and adventure. Our prehistoric ancestors saw red as the color of fire and blood – energy and primal life forces – and most of red’s symbolism today arises from its powerful associations in the past.
