I just thought I'd share this. My name means "pure" and "tortured", just as fire can be a good thing (keeping warmth, food, etc.) but also it can destroy lives and structures within minutes. I am a Saggitarius, which is fire. I have always been drawn to fire, intrigued by its light and warmth. However, I am afraid of it when it destroys and works out of control. My element is fire, and it has been since I was young.

@TheVeganicWitch like you, i'd rather be weird and happy than "normal" and broken spirited ;)

Fire is pure energy and power:
If controlled fire's energy allows us to do impossible things, power our cars or leave the planet...
But in the wrong hands, fire destroys...
it consumes air to feed itself, it can melt the earth and evaporate water.
yet if earth stands firm it can smother fire, If air and if water surrounds fire it absorbs its energy and puts it out.
fire can take away, but it can also cleanse, ridding the world of the old and creating new fertile soil...

I also love symbology .. it is the core for all writing systems we have today.. right now I am using Latin alphabet and all the letters symbolises a sound. To the might of looking into art and see a deep symbol in them. To music and everything to the great abstract. To a great poem to all the colours
SYMBOLOGY RULES!
All love and respect from Jasmine :)

In aboriginal culture, fire was one of our most important elements.
It would keep us warm, it allowed us to cook food, it gave us light and kept dangerous animals at bay.
The elders would always tell us kids how important it was to burn off the old scrub every year or so before summer to prevent wild fires and to clear off old dead vegetation allowing the new generation to grow.
There are even some plants which will not drop their seeds until after a fire...

Yeah, Australia as a continent I think resonates very deeply with the element of fire, and the fact that many plants here cannot reproduce without it really is something that makes our country unique. I'm really glad to have you back Joker and that you are enjoying this series of videos :-)

Thank you for this video. As a youth, great pleasure was obtained on a camping trip by making a fire, and simply quietly staring at it for long periods of time.

Fire was always my favourite element as a child and teenager :-)
