Fire Starter: Channel Your Inner Flame into Protection, Inspiration, and Lasting Change

Heat can heal or harm—it depends on how we hold it. Rainbow Raaja dives into the fire element this month as a living ally for courage, creativity, protection, and renewal. Learn from nature’s fierce teachers—volcanoes and wildfires—the everyday craft of building containers to keep passion bright without burning us out. I share the symbolism of how fire's wisdom helps us build strong boundaries, focus our passion and light a torch for safer self‑advocacy.

As with every month, we open with a four‑path tarot spread tailored to where you can begin to work with fire. The Stone helps you swap defensiveness for accountability and light. The Seed points to teamwork, collaboration, and bringing ideas into form on fertile ground. The Medallion recognizes initiation through service, inviting inspiration to flow. The Castle brings it home—literal hearth and relationships—where risk, truth, and small daily actions can restore trust, steadiness, and warmth. Throughout, we focus on sustainable drive, simple boundaries that stick, and clear choices that honor both heart and passion.

To deepen the work, I guide a breath‑led fire activation with Reiki and light codes, drawing heat from the belly through the heart and into focused action. The transmission ends with a vision of the sun—the most generous fire we know—reminding us that steady warmth grows forests, nourishes bodies, and brightens resolve. If you’re ready to turn scattered sparks into a steady flame—for art, career, protection, or love—this conversation offers practical structure, intuitive guidance, and a grounded path forward.

SPEAKER_00: 0:22

Hello, hello, hello, and welcome to Rainbows Rising, where we ascend together. I'm your host, Rainbow Raja, shamanic bodywork therapist and holistic coach. Last month we talked about the earth element and how you can start to use the earth element to bring more stability, more abundance into your life. This month we're going to be talking about fire. When I think of fire, I think of our bonfires that we create, how they bring a sense of warmth. We use fire to cook bacteria out of our food. We use fire to light the darkness when we are camping or when we're out in nature. We use fire as a way of leading the way into battle. Fire has always been a symbol, not just a symbol of warmth and of comfort, but also a symbol of passion. We have used fire to blow things up. We have used fire to, you know, grab your forks and your torches. Let's go. Fire it comes with a bit of aggression. Fire is a destructive force, but that destruction always leads into a rebirth. Fire is the element of rebirth, but it does carry that the energy of destruction, of battle, of aggression. We can see this in nature. You look at a volcano, it is a powerful, powerful force of nature. Sure it lays dormant for thousands of years, but when there is imbalance in the land, you start to get those sulfuric acids up into the air, all the wildlife start to kind of die off. All of the hot springs get too hot to survive, and animals start to leave the environment before the eruption occurs. Lava pours forth. Ash and soot rain down from the sky. We see this as a horrible, terrible thing, we as humans, because it does disrupt where we have decided to live. But when we actually recognize the power of that destructive force, how the lava completely terraforms the land, how the lava can create entire new land mass, or if it's out in the ocean, like an underwater volcano, it can create an entire island. Hawaii, for example, is the result of volcanoes. And after the volcano has erupted and completely terraformed the land around it, up springs new life because the volcanic soil is actually some of the most fertile soil on the planet. It is, it has so many natural minerals to allow for new growth to come. Some other areas in nature where we might see natural fire is lightning strikes. Lightning strikes a tree, it starts a wildfire. Sure, it takes out a whole forest, but very soon after you see new growth. Fire is nature's way of saying, I gotta clear this out over here. I'm just just gonna just gonna let fire do its worst. And I believe that when we tap into that element of fire within ourselves, we can feel a lot of passion. It is harnessing the passion that we need to complete projects, to pursue a career, to get inspiration for creative pursuits. Fire is that charge, that energy of yes, let's get it done. Let's go, we've got this. And with that aggression, that uh almost destructive energy, uh, even in passion, you're kind of having to destroy all of your distractions in order to get certain things done. Fire is a very powerful element to learn to harness in your daily life. So we've kind of covered volcanoes, we covered a little bit of lightning, um, and we we talked about how fire creates a fertile ground for allowing new vegetation to grow. So you're probably wondering, well, I don't know if I want that kind of destruction in my life. Destruction is good, change is good. You should embrace fire. I'm a Sagittarius, I should know. So um what I would like to bring to the table when working with fire is you have to come with a lot of reverence. Working with the element of fire, you have to understand it does it does destroy if it is not respected, if it is not contained. If you can't create a container for your passion, you'll be burnt out. You will start real strong and then you'll start to peter off, and you won't really want to do anymore, and you'll be too tired to do it, and you'll just kind of be like, I don't want to do it anymore. So you want to make sure that you temper your flame, that you can continue on with vigor. You want to make sure that you have enough fuel for your fire, your inner fire. Um, you might be able to harness fire in times of threat. If you happen to be in a circumstance where people or situations are threatening you in any way, shape, or form. Having a bit of fire, being able to harness that fire, can be really, really useful. That doesn't mean you go and light somebody's house on fire, please do not do that. I'm talking about being able to harness the inner flame within, to set boundaries, to be able to protect yourself, to stand up against danger and hold your ground. In some circumstances, this might even be fighting back. Um, unless you're in a life or death situation, please don't throw hands at people. But I do recommend that if you're in a dangerous situation, that you can harness the fire element in a safe and regulated way in order to get out of bad spot. Um so I'm just gonna use a little bit of my life as an example. There have been times where people that I loved, they had certain ideas of what they thought I should be spending my time on, or they felt that they knew where my where my energy was best served. And in those moments, I was being controlled and manipulated in order to do things that I was not very interested in doing. And I'm saying this in a very kind way. So I hope you guys can use your imaginations and apply that to wherever you would like to apply it. But in those circumstances where I was being forced to do things that I did not want to do, and I vocalized, I hey, I don't, I don't want to, I don't want to take that, I don't want to do that, I don't want to invest my time into that. Um, I'm busy. Please, please don't make me do that. In those circumstances, um my will was not being respected. I had to assert it's on fire. When I was not regulated with my fire usage, I would have explosive emotional expressions. And those explosive emotional expressions got me into some trouble. But when I learned how to temper my fire, I was able to articulate my boundaries and hold them in a safe and regulated way where people understood that, hey, she's not gonna do the thing I'm asking her to do or telling her to do. And if I push any further, this might not turn out so well for me. And so I highly recommend that you learn your own valves for what is too much fire and what is not enough fire. Not enough fire is when people walk all over you like a doormat. And too much fire is where somebody is putting you in a padded room. So just joking aside, joking aside, uh, fire can be very hard to regulate. Fire can be very hard to control. It is not meant to be controlled, it is meant to be focused and channeled. You if you light a fire in the forest, you have to build kind of a little wall around your fire. You have to put some rocks around your fire pit so that it doesn't get out of control and go elsewhere. And you have to do this even within yourself. When you start to work with the fire element, let's say you really would like to harness the fire element and be able to pursue your career. If you don't put that firewall around yourself and you go really, really hard at first without really tempering your energy, you will end up so overworked and burnt out before you ever reach the three-month period where where you actually have to have kind of a rhythm going. So, how do we do that? You have to make good with fire, you have to respect. Hey, I am so grateful that I have been able to tap into this inspiration. I'm so grateful that I can tap into this inner flame within me. I see you fire. I respect you, fire. Please continue to warm my joy so that I may continue on this trek in this direction. Continue to inspire me to show to light my way forth. These are ways that I like to talk to my inner fire so that I can move with respect with this element. We're gonna do a bit of a tarot reading for all of you out there so that you can know how you can tap into your inner fire in a safe and regulated way. Because right now, wherever you're at, everybody's in a different situation. And you might be needing fire for defense purposes, for fighting for what you believe in, for fighting against someone who is trying to control or suppress or you know, steal whatever from you. Maybe you need fire for protection. Maybe you need fire for inspiration. Maybe you've been having writers block, artists block. You just can't seem to find the inspiration to figure out what you should be doing with your life. Maybe you need fire for inspiration. Maybe you, group number three, maybe you need fire in order to push through some hard struggles. You know, maybe you've really been having a lot of difficulty inside yourself. You have some bad habits you need to destroy. You need to burn those bad habits out of you. So you need to work with the element fiber fire, or maybe group number three. Maybe you guys have been using fire a little too much. You smoking cigarettes, you doing, you know, whatever, whatever. Using fire too much. Maybe you have temper tantrums for those kids out there. Don't smoke. Um maybe, maybe your fire is dysregulated and you need to know how to pull it back. How do you rein in your fire? How do you how do you put a little water on your fire and and you know get it down a little bit? And maybe, maybe you just don't need fire right now in your life. We will see. So we're gonna go with four groups. Why four? Because that's that's just what I'm feeling today. And here at a brainbow's rising, we go with our instincts. I highly recommend you do that. It works out, I'd say, 98% of the time. The 2% is the time you doubt yourself. So the decks that we have today are Kim Kranz's. This is the Wild Unknown Archetypes. I chose this deck because I believe this deck is really good for giving you an idea of the role you're in. So I'm asking the cards, please give me four specific roles that the viewers, the listeners out there, we're going to put them into groups. I need four different roles that will help them understand their relationship with fire and how they can connect on a deeper level with the energy of fire. How many do we have here? We have three. Now we have four. Look at that. One, two, three, four. You got your four groups. The other deck that I would like to use today, we're going to use the Urban Crow by MJ Colinane. Colinane. MJ, I'm so sorry about butchering your last name. If it makes you feel any better, sometimes I butcher my own name. Anyway, I am tapping into these four groups. I ask. I ask the spirit of crow, who, by the way, I believe crow is is a spirit of fire because crow crow is a carrion bird. They like to eat dead parts of other animals. They kind of scavengers a little bit. And I feel that fire is a lot like that because they burn away the dead parts of nature. They burn away what is no longer working. So I chose crows. Crows. I have a lot of connections with crows. That's also that's also kind of what we're dealing with here. So group one. Help us understand what their relationship with fire is. Group number two. Help us understand their relationship with fire and guide them in what they can do to connect with fire on a deeper level. Okay. Group number three. Help them connect with fire, their role to fire, how fire can serve them at this time. Group number four. I think group number four connect with fire this month. Harness that power. Okay. The last tarot deck that I'm going to use is the Sacred Rebels Oracle by Elena Fairchild. Artwork by Autumn Sky. This is actually one of my newer decks. I love the art. So for this particular card pull, we are gonna ask for some guidance on how you can tune into the energy of fire the easiest. How can the viewer tune into the energy of fire the easiest? I'm just pulling one for each of that. Alright. Here we go. As you can see, I'm just going to take these decks. I'm gonna place them down below so that we can read one reading at a time. Please, at this time, choose a number between one and four. Please choose a number between one and four. Have you chosen your number? Great. We're gonna get started with group number one. The stone. Now this the stone. And with this card, I see it looks as if this little crystal stone is inside of multiple circles. You've got multiple shapes. You've got the triangle, the square, the circle, and the stone resides within. I see this as boundary setting. I see this as having parameters for your reality. Stones are they're solid. You know, uh, there's that saying, you know, the to hide the the hand that through the stone hides, or something like that. I see this as like you are in the middle of a situation of confrontation. Possibly you have may have been the one that started the confrontation, and now you're looking to maybe not be so much in confrontation. So we have the stone. I believe that this has to do with conflict and possibly pulling yourself out of conflict. You might also be dealing with when I think of stones, I think of carrying heavy burdens. If you are someone who has a tendency of taking things to heart, taking things too personally, and you are just taking on too much. I I feel this reading is definitely for you. So I I stick I stick to what I say because we have your suggestion here for how to work with fire is focus on the light. It seems like you've been kind of you you've you've been this you've been the stone in regards to you've been very you've been cold, you haven't been the kindest necessarily speaking. Maybe you've made some poor decisions in your choices recently. With your situation, you have resistance, influence in reverse, and observation in reverse. So, in regards to working with fire, we really are in a situation where you need to start protecting your own space. You need to set some boundaries, you need to learn some psychic protection. And you need to start focusing on the like because your thought patterns are what are creating the conflicts in your life. First card we've got is resistance. You are creating the resistance to having an easier flow in your life. You your choices are in conflict with what is natural in the circumstance. You are maybe being a little stubborn, maybe you aren't necessarily taking the easy road, the road that is going to benefit all involved. You might be holding strong to your boundaries in a bad way. Because when you have too much fire, you can end up burning yourself. Burning yourself so much that you turn into a stone. You've been burning yourself so hard, you have turned yourself into a stone. And you've just been going against the resistance. Uh, you've been resisting what you need to do. You are not, you're not going with the flow. You've got influence in reverse. It seems like maybe you've been making choices recently that are helping you break some negative influences. Maybe you've cut some negative people out of your life. Maybe you have cleared up some bad habits. Maybe you've started, you know, working out or taking care of yourself, changing your eating habits. Good job. Keep it up. But at the same time, you have influence here, which means whatever led you into this circumstance, you were influenced. You were influenced by someone else. You allowed substances, you allowed circumstances to be your excuse for why you were in that circumstance to begin with. You enabled your own behavior with an excuse for, oh, well, I was convinced by so-and-so, and oh, but I was drunk, and that's why, blah, blah, blah. No. No. It's good that you are breaking those habits. Continue to break those habits. But it is, you have to take responsibility for what you have created in your life. This is a time where you need to observe your life and what has led to this point. You have not done any introspection. We have this crow observing, observing a spider in a whip. Observing how the fly has gotten stuck in the web. You need to recognize how you have gotten stuck in the circumstance. It is nobody's fault but your own. No matter who was involved, no matter who tried to coerce you, no matter what they have done. I have been in some horrible situations in my life. And after I observed, I realized that even if I was forced to do something, even if something was forced onto me, that I am still responsible for my own actions, for what I was doing in that place to begin with, why I agreed to certain things to begin with. And I had to take responsibility. And my ego had to take a bit of a hit. That's hard. But once I was able to admit what I did to bring myself to that situation, just like a fire burning through a wire through the wilderness, once I was able to admit, oh my gosh, well, I kind of started that fire. That's why everything is in ruins now. The minute I started looking at myself and admitting what I had done to put myself in that circumstance, that I was not the victim that I thought I was, suddenly the rain fell and the fire went out. It's a miracle. But truly, I cleared my own conscience. And when I was able to take responsibility, I also was able to learn oh, well, I made these mistakes, so I'm not gonna make them again. And I was able to apologize to the people I'd hurt because once I took accountability for myself and I forgave myself, like, well, I didn't really know that it would end this way. Or in the moment I felt blah, blah, blah. And that's why it was super important for me to see this through and take this path. But I'm still responsible. And I'm still at fault. And I hurt people, and I need to apologize. Because once you clear your conscience, you will start to be able to focus on the life and the light, on your life, on the light. So I think this is a great reading for you. I'm sorry if it was a little heavy. I hope it resonates or not. If your life is going good and it doesn't resonate, then it's probably for the better that way. But if you do resonate with this reading, it's an easy fix. No matter how junky your life is right now, it truly is an easy fix. All you need to do is stop resisting the changes that need to be made. Stop resisting what you need to do to clear up the circumstance. Get rid of all the influences, all the things that you can use as an excuse for your behavior. You are responsible for yourself. You are an adult. And if you're not an adult, you're a child. And guess what? You still are responsible for yourself. Um, it's something you gotta learn. Uh and you You get a little grace right now as a kid, but someday you won't get as much grace. And just observe the role you played to put yourself in this circumstance. And once you do and you forgive yourself, things are gonna lighten up and you're going to be able to see the dawn of a new day. All right. Good reading. Good reading, you guys. Let's go ahead to group number two. Group number two. We have the seed. The seed. So in the fire life cycle, this is like after the wildfire has burned everything to the ground. Now the seed has fertile soil to grow. There is so much opportunity. You are looking for your passion. You're looking for your inspiration. This is a good place to start. The first group was the stone. You guys, you guys had a hard go. But second group, we've got the seed. You're just starting to grow. We have let's see here. So our first card is anomaly. You are someone who is quite strange, peculiar, unique in your own way, and that has made you an outcast. And because you were an outcast, you really couldn't see what the positive qualities you had to bring to the world were. You allowed yourself to be tricked. You know, you would look to others for approval, for support. And because those people knew that you were looking for approval and for support, here they were offering you tricks. You thinking they were treats. Um and so over time of being tricked, maybe being given false opportunities, false promises. That's you remember this. You remember all the times that you have been deceived, all the times that you have been made the butt of people's jokes for being different, for being unique, for being eccentric or exciting, and they just couldn't see your spark. But when you look back and you actually observe all those times you were tricked, you start to gain some insight. You recognize that every single person, look at this, we've got the crow putting all the stones in the water. Every time someone has hurt you, it only helped you grow. You recognize that even though you had to kind of put put your difference in a box and hide it from the world because you really couldn't trust anyone anymore, you have incredible wisdom that you have gleamed from those experiences. You remember the energy of those types of people and you now avoid them. You were able to take those circumstances of the types of people that would come and make you false promises, the types of people that would come and pretend to be your friend, and instead they would do things to undermine your efforts instead of being supportive. You can tune into all of the wonderful, wonderful, good people that were very supportive in your life, and you have recognized the energy signature of those that sabotaged you or that stabbed you in the back or that abandoned you. And because of that, you have such a really wise insight as to the types of people that you should be teaming up with. And we've got teamwork here and we've got displacement. And it put you far away from your goals. Now, that does not seem to be the case this time because we have that you're this anomaly. You finally are recognizing who you are and what you're worth, and you're not allowing yourself to be tricked anymore. This is trickery in reverse. So you are not allowing yourself to be tricked. You are able to use that wisdom and the memories and the insight to build the proper team to move forward. And with the displacement, I feel like it's more of more of you are moving into a new environment. Instead of like being homeless or not having a place to be, I feel that your teamwork with this group is actually going to put you into a new environment. Um brings us to bring it into form. It sounds like you are embarking on a project that you can't do on your own. Like, no matter how gifted, no matter how unique, no matter how beautiful you are on the inside, this is a task that takes a lot of hands. It takes a lot of different skills. And you're looking for the proper team, the proper group to help manifest this goal. And that's where this seed is coming from, because maybe the fire wiped that fire from being tricked wiped out your whole forest. And now you want a new forest, but you only got one seed. That one seed turns into a great big tree. That tree makes a lot of acorns, and those acorns can disperse among the forest and build a whole forest all over again. Takes time, takes effort. But right now you're in this stage of working. If you are to work with fire, you're bringing it into form. You are able to take all the perspectives, all of the advice, all of the wisdom from this collective, put it together and bring this project into reality. But it takes teamwork. It's really interesting. A lot of people nowadays, because we see so many Instagram influencers and YouTubers, and we see them so successful. We think that if we go out and we can, you know, I can do this all by my it takes a lot of work. A lot of successful YouTube channels, a lot of successful entrepreneurs do not work alone. They work in a team. They get some friends, they hire some help, they get together, they have an entire production team, they have an editor, they've got a production, they've got people on the ground kind of doing the doing the writing, doing all the content creation, coming up with the whole schedule, doing all the social media. It's not a solo job. And as a solo producer, I don't have a team. And it does take a lot of work, and I don't have a life. And that is why you will need a team for this particular project. And I wish you the very best. I hope you bring it into form. I think find that fire element is going to help you with the drive to collect the people to bring that dream into reality for you. I think this was a good one too. Good job. Good job, Tarot. Thank you. On to group number three. Group number three. Ooh. Ooh, we have the medallion. There we go. The medallion. So the medallion is a powerful, powerful talisman. Since we're working with fire, I'm just gonna talk about what fire can do to metal. Fire is so powerful it can melt down metals. It can melt down stones, turn them into liquid. That's what a medallion is. It is gold that has been melted and molded into an object of power. The medallion shows you that you are being imbued with this power. It is about transmutation, it is about uh being empowered, it is about uh being given a status symbol. This is this is an initiation of some sort. Because medallions hold not just just the the metaphoric idea of power and wealth, but medallions are like they can be imbued with different energies, they can show your status to others. I think the medallion is here as this initiation to show where you you're moving up in the world. Interesting. So we have dominance, self-interest, and ghosts. These three are all in reverse. It seems like you have been initiated because you refused to let go of your power to allow someone to have power over you. You chose to stand your ground in circumstances where you could have easily been defeated. That can be emotional, that can be mental. If you were working hard long hours and you were like, oh, it's two in the morning, and I don't feel like doing my job, even though I know I have to do it to stay consistent. Not talking about myself, you guys. But you persevered. You you s you didn't listen to that voice in the back of your head that's saying, it's time to turn in. You can always put it off for another day. No, you fought through the the exhaustion and and you did the job. Other people told you that you weren't doing your job good and you should listen to their advice, and you didn't do that either. You have always stayed in your position of power. You may have had moments of weakness, but you didn't let that stop you. You didn't let that stop you. And because of that, because you didn't allow that to stop you. Ooh. Oh, you guys, we have a visitor. I'd like to welcome the ghosts. The ghosts, the ghosts, the ghosts are here. So uh we're just gonna skip right over how you have always put others' uh needs before your own. And we'll just go straight into ghosts. Uh I have a feeling that this particular card is talking more about how you let the past stay in the past. But maybe you're a medium and ghosts have been bugging you your whole life and you never actually took the time to talk to them because you were too afraid to actually engage with them. And you just recently started engaging with them and talking to them. And guess what? It's it's working out for you. That's all you need to know. You're being empowered, you're you're stepping into your state of power. By the way, if you do see or speak with the dead and the ghosts, and you're afraid because you can see them and other people can't, and you've been told since you were a child that you're just loony toonie, you're not. It's okay. And here at Rainbow, Rainbow's Rising, we will go over that. Uh, just let me know that you want me to, and I will. But uh, in regards to most normal people in this category, ghost means that you just allowed whatever mistakes you made to stay in the past. You just allowed whatever you, you know, what whatever people you may have left behind, whatever circumstances that didn't work out for you. You allowed those to stay in the past and you didn't ruminate, which is really important when you're moving forward in life. And in the middle here, uh self-interest. You have always been of service to others. You are someone who serves the greater collective. Maybe you are someone who is a humanitarian. You always are thinking of ways that you can help other people. You hold doors open. Maybe you donate money to charity. Maybe you're one of those people who's like, oh, my friend really needs help uh for this down payment for a house. I'm going to loan them some money. Even if if you're worried they won't pay you back, and you do it anyway, and you consider that a loss, and you're okay with that, and you let it stay in the past. You let it stay in the past. Why? Because your heart encourages you to always think of others and to do unto others as you wish they would do onto you. And because you have kept that vein of like do-goodedness in your heart, and you haven't allowed any mistakes that you've made in the past or any investments that you've made in others that may have gone awry, you didn't allow them to change your heart. They you didn't allow them to change you. You have continued to serve others, you have continued to invest in people. Why? Because you care. Because you go around in this world wanting to care about people. Good, keep doing it. We need more of you. I hope all the people here you start doing exactly what group number three has been doing. They are getting that medallion because they they are hard workers, they care about others, and they let the past stay in the past. They don't let it bug them. And because of that, you will be gifted with new whoops, don't want to knock my T over with my foot. Whoops! Uh, you will be gifted with new inspiration. That new inspiration, oh man, I love when I get a beautiful like download of information and inspiration from the divine so that I can best serve you guys. Um inspiration can come in so many different ways, but because we're working with fire this month, you're going to be inspired through working with fire. So I look forward to that. Um, and as we talked about earlier, fire can be that spark that lights your inspiration, your passion. I believe fire element is behind all great artists, all great creators. Even as an actor, like when an actor is coming up with the courage to stand in front of a screen, to stand in front of an audience, there is so much fire, so much power that they are pulling up from their root chakra and their sacral chakra, mostly their sacral chakra, and they're pulling it up. And you know, you get the butterflies in your stomach, you get kind of scared and you get nervous. But actors and people know public speakers, they take that fire and they transmute it and they use it as like, hey guys, I'm here and we're going to do this thing. And that is how they transmute it. So use your use fire as as a way to tap into your inspiration uh this month. That is that is how you can utilize fire in your life. You will get so much inspiration. You'll probably get a bunch of creative drive working with fire and learning to work with fire this month. All right. Let's go ahead and move over to our last and final reading. Group number four. The castle. The castle. Interesting. So when we work with fire, I'm wondering what the castle has to do with fire. Cause hearth and home. Thank you, guys. Or guides. Uh hearth and home. So group number four, you're gonna be working with the fire element. Once again, thank you, Ghost, for your special appearance today. Sorry. My camera will change its yes, hello. Yeah, we see you. Would you like to wave to the audience? This this is getting this is great. I love this. Okay, back to the reading. Uh, the castle, girth and home. This is going to apply to how you can create a healthier relationship uh in your relationship, in your home life, in your family dynamic, whether you're a husband, a wife, or the child of lovely husbands and wives out there, or maybe you're a grandma or a grandpa, maybe you're an auntie or an uncle. This is about this this working with fire is going to help you become a lot more comfortable in your home environment. You're gonna be a lot happier in your home environment. You're gonna be able to have more luxury, more comfort, more connection. You will feel more regal in your home environment while working with fire this month, and I'm gonna tell you how you can do that. So we have risk, nature, exposed, and release. So in your heart and home situation here, it feels as if you might be in a situation where you might need to invest some money, or maybe there is a circumstance where you are being required to compromise in areas that might feel risky. For example, maybe your child has uh a performance coming up and you have to take them to practice, and it kind of conflicts with your work schedule, and you're worried that that's too big of a risk that you can put your entire house uh and the stability at risk if you go and you take your kid to their rehearsals. But in in life, in in a relationship, in a role as a parent, as a parent, I can speak on this. There are certain risks you must must take to put your child first so that they know that you love them enough to put them first. In a relationship, that can also be being more vulnerable with your partner. That can be showing your true emotions that you're afraid to show with your partner. That can be taking the risk of moving in with your partner or moving closer to your partner. In a home situation, there can be certain risks with maybe you have to get new furniture. You have to put a bunch of money on a credit card in order to get new furniture. These are the types of risks you might be facing at this point. It is there, there are probably some calculated risks, and there are some not so smart risks, like allowing a ghost to continue interrupting your podcast. Bro, I didn't invite you. I I'm glad you're here. Thank you for showing. We'll talk about you in a different episode. How about that? Like, what if I invite you in in a different episode? But not this episode. This episode is about fire. We know that you're not fire, buddy. And I don't want you to start one. Please don't start one. I appreciate you. Thank you. Anyway. Nature. There are calculated risks. And there are not calculated risks. I believe, considering the fact that this is about hearth and home, uh, you gotta look at the nature of the risk. You're you're probably looking more at you're probably observing what is vying for your attention the most. You're not taking into consideration what could come from taking that risk. So you might be looking more at like the damage the fire could do rather than considering what it can clear out. If you and your wife are having a lot of confrontations because she would like more, I don't know, effort on your part to clean the kitchen and you feel you don't have enough time because you are putting your attention onto other things. If you actually go and do what she is asking, set a timer. This is this is advice from a wife. I promise you, you'll want to listen. Go set a timer and do the tasks. Pick a day she's not even around. So you can just see what this is. Just do the tasks she wants you to do. Time yourself. I bet you can do everything within 30 minutes. I bet you can do all those dishes and sweep the floors and mop the floors and wipe the countertops. I bet you can do all that in less than 30 minutes. And you will be so proud of yourself because you're gonna like clean everything up. You're gonna look around and be like, man, I did that. Huh. Yeah, that's right. I cleaned the kitchen, and she's gonna walk in and she is gonna be so dumbstruck. She's gonna be like, oh, it's so sparkly clean in here. And then she's gonna look to you and go, Did you do this? 30 minutes, my man. 30 minutes. Clean the kitchen, do whatever she's asking, do it regularly. Trust me, the payoff, the payoff will be good. That's just for one person. But the point is, take a look at the nature, not of what you might lose. Don't look at the destructive element. I would like you to please look at the nature of what you can accomplish if you did do it. Think of the things that will come up. And look, when we do look at what we can accomplish, you will actually end up. So this card is exposed. You will end up kind of creating instead of exposure, it's gonna be more of like enclosure. So where normally you would continue to avoid things and it will persist, and things will get more tense, and then you will continue to get confrontation from your partner in order to get this thing done. Or in some circumstances, if you guys are calculating a risk of an investment uh and you're just not making a choice on it, and you're more worried about like, oh, well, I don't I want my money to sit in the bank. And the problem is, is if you're not really looking at what you can accomplish, you will never be able to expose what could be accomplished if you just did it. Like, if you do the task, you will know what it is capable of. There are some things like maybe you're considering buying a$40,000 car and you only have$7,000 in your bank account. Is that a good investment on a salary of$2,000 a month? It is a horrible investment. I'm not a financial advice advisor, but I know the payments on that would be ridiculous. So the thing is, is look at not just the destructive element, but look at what would be accomplished. What is the aftermath? What uh what would be happening if you did do it? So if I bought that car, I I I put down a hefty$5,000. I saved$2,000 because I'm not a dope. I'm gonna I'm gonna put$5,000 on this$40,000 car,$35,000 uh is is how much I'm gonna pay off with my my lease payments or loan payments or whatever you call them. I'm driving off the lot. Oops, my car just depreciated a hundred, or not a hundred, uh, ten thousand dollars just driving off the lot. Now your$40,000 car is now worth$30,000 and you owe the bank$35,000 with interest. Was that a wise decision? No, because you weren't really thinking about what would happen after you actually took the risk. So the risk, there might be a true risk. But if you're only looking at what might be destroyed and you're not actually considering the benefits, if you're taking if you're buying a new car so that you can be an Uber full time and make money, do the calculations for that. Does it pay off in the long run? I've actually spoken to quite a few Ubers who went and bought Prius on like no salary, and then they just Ubered full time for 40 plus hours a week. And they were able to pay off their car in two or three months. Months with the amount of money they made. This just so you guys know, this was over 10 years ago. So this was back when Uber was still kind of new. So I don't know if the the income from Ubering is still as good. But I'm just making the point. If you sit and you do the figures and you look at the you evaluate risk, you expose what the risk could cause, could do for you. You expose the benefits that if you did this thing, what it would do for you. And then once you've done all of your evaluations, you just need to release the circumstance. You release it. So you take your risk, you do the risk, or you don't do the risk. But then you have to let it go. And you have to be okay and not feel regret that you didn't take that risk or that you did take the risk. And the card that comes up for working with fire this month is listening for truth. So with that risk evaluation, with considering, you know, dealing with your circumstance in your home with your partner, with your kids, with your parents, whoever you are, in the castle. The reason we're looking at what would happen if I did this, and what what are the positives that can come from it? Trying to see things from different perspectives is if you can do that from a place of honesty within yourself, you will be able to tune into the truth of the circumstance without your fears getting in the way. When you listen to your heart space, when you listen to when you listen to the truth, there's always a chord of truth in everything. The truth can have multiple different viewpoints, but there's always kind of one core truth. A decision that needs to be made here. There is a choice, an action that needs to be taken. And you can't do that if you are not able to see the truth. Whether that is your partner is asking for support in the kitchen because she is actually really overwhelmed, and she can't actually love you or provide for you in the way she wants to if she is taking on her full-time job and nurturing the kids and cleaning up after everybody all the time. And what she's actually asking of you is to recognize how exhausted and tired and in pain she is, and that she is she is begging you to love her in a way where, you know, it's it's kind of demoralizing for her to ask, to be like, hey, I am so depleted that I need your assistance in these areas that I normally would cover on my own. And that can be really like that takes a lot of courage for a woman. Because most women, we are, we are at a place in our society where we are being raised to not have to ask other people for support. We're raising the kid on our own, we're doing our job on our own, we're the boss girl, we want to do everything all by ourselves because we want to be independent. We don't need a man, blah, blah, blah. But if your wife is coming to you and saying, hey, I really need your help with this, trust me, she's at the end of her rope if she has to mention it. Like she feels really safe coming to you. And if you're just discounting it, you are you are burning a hole in her heart because now she doesn't feel like you're safe to go to when she needs something done. In a way, if you do that stuff, you're providing her the space where she can nurture herself. You're providing, you're showing her you're a provider. You're showing her that you're a supporter, that you care about her feelings, that you care about her energy reserves, that you care about her sanity. Because trust me, if she's coming to you with problems, her sanity is in question. Not to you or to anyone else, but like emotional, you know, emotional stuff can really burden up on us. And if we have to go and ask for help, we're at a place where we can't manage it on our own. Like, dudes, dudes will take care of things, and then when something's like not really manageable for them, they'll kind of mention it. But it's not, it's not like end all be all. Like, if a if somebody can't help you, you guys are like, okay, well, I'll take care of myself, and you just go about your day. Like women, we do that normally. Like, we take care of things even when we don't want to take care of things. We just do it because we have to. And then there comes a point where we just don't have the energy to even do that anymore. Like, it's gone. Like, we we're we're so empty and void, or we're just like so. If you want your castle strong and fortified, and your woman is asking for some support, just know that the best way to support her is to do the job. Risk assessment is your marriage. Just kidding, that joke. But really, listen for the truth. Uh was just a good example of how the truth can play out from a place of if somebody's asking you to do something, it's coming from a place of they are in pain and they really need your help. Which I think goes without saying, but it's okay. Um, so those were our readings for today. Remember, uh, for reading number four, Perth and home. Remember what you put into your home. You might get back in bed. All right. On to our activation for fire. Activation, activation for fire. I didn't collect all my instruments like I normally do. So I'm going to mostly do a channeling of light coats. And I'll do some reiki. And I'm going to use this jaw harp. That is what we're going to do. So what I'd like you to do is I'd like you to take a nice deep breath into your body. Set the intention that you're open to receiving whatever you need most in this moment. You're open to receiving this attunement to the element of fire to become more aligned with the creative aspects of fire, to the regener regenerative aspects of fire, to the passionate aspects of fire, to the inspiration of fire. That you would like to be attuned to how fire will benefit you this month. You'd like to be attuned to how to temper the flames of your soul.

Hello to a car.

SPEAKER_00: 1:14:10

Great wildfire just coursing through the forest. At the very beginning, when it was more just tuning, it was it was about pulling up the fire within your belly, within your gut, and harnessing it out through your heart, through your heart space. So there was an activation of moving that passion up through your body and out through your heart. And I was being shown when there was more singing that there's this big wildfire clearing out a forest, and all the animals are moving out of the way. They're moving out of the way as best as they can. Obviously, not everyone survives because not everyone wants to move out of the way. Um there will, you know, there is casualties when you are not getting out of your own way. But once the fire cleared everything out, I did see this new growth coming. And at the very end, I was shown the sun. The sun, which is the greatest aspect of fire, that I completely avoided talking about, not on purpose, obviously, it evaded me. It evaded me. It was the one thing I didn't notice. But the sun is a part of that fire, the connection to fire. The sun, you know, it can burn, but the sun also is what creates that life force for all of us. The energy we drink it into our skin. You lay out under the sun and it warms your skin. You can get visions sitting beneath the sun. Connecting with that solar flame can rejuvenate you. It's relaxing. We we think of beautiful, relaxing vacations in the summer. When you think of the sun, when you don't get enough sun, you fall into depression, right? A lot of people in the Pacific Northwest experience that vitamin D, the energy, the life that comes from the sun is vital for our health. And that's something that you don't always remember the sun is so much a part of the element of fire. And it is what feeds us life force. Breathing, yes, feeds us life force, but so does the sun. The earth, yes, feeds us life force, but so does the sun. The sun is what creates the growth for life on earth. So I hope that you guys enjoyed today's episode, that you connect with the messages that I brought. And if you were courageous enough to get a reading today and it applied to you, I hope that you start to think of ways how you can apply that reading into your day-to-day life, how you can apply connecting with the element of fire to your everyday life. We will be talking more about some basic practices of integrating fire next week. We'll also be talking about um how fire plays a role in multiple traditions across uh the world. And I might be incorporating a couple of those practices next week as a way of giving a little bit more hands-on material for you guys, as I really would like this podcast to focus more on teaching you guys a bunch of different skills that you can start to apply to your everyday life and start to benefit from evolving spiritually. So I hope you guys had a wonderful day. And if you enjoyed today's podcast, don't forget to subscribe and maybe write a review if you can't. Um, and check out my Patreon where I'm trying to build a community. And when I get 25 patrons, I will be opening up a Discord community that will have a bunch of healers and a bunch of other um uh uh spiritual leaders, and they will all be in one place hosting workshops and events and healings for the community, and I'm building that up right now, but it's not gonna be available until I get 25 patrons. So if you would like to join that community where we also have podcast episodes, you can get sessions. Uh, go check out the Patreon because I I do offer quite a lot on my Patreon uh in the tiers.
