Elemental Deep Dive: Fire

Cecilia and Gradh catch up after their long hiatus and discuss the element of fire, how they engaged with it before stepping on to their respective paths, and how they employ it in their current practices.

Books mentioned: 

Laura Tempest Zakroff's Anatomy of a Witch: A Map to the Magical Body (about the three cauldrons)

The Cry of the Deer: Meditations on the Hymn of St. Patrick by David Adam 

Boundary/Light in the Darkness Spell:

Mentally and spiritually draw a caim (circle) of light around you. Extend it as far as you're comfortable.

Hold a lit candle or imagine that you are (fire safety first, people!) and picture yourself as a force for good. This can be positive connection or imagining that you're a light of hope in the darkness. Ask your deities, guides, etc. for the next most effective action to bring good into the world.

Once you have a good idea of what they want you to do, thank them and dispel the circle. Act within your means on whatever guidance they give you.

So mote it be.

Gradh got internet in his grove and is now on Blue Sky as Gradh the Druid.
