       Fire is a very fast acting and sometime all-consuming element. Fire element's nature is to change the 

structure of whatever it touches into new state of being. With the element of fire one must take precautions

and enthusiasm. Feel the comforting warmth of a fire, or heat when you come in from the cold. We need fire

is shared with those around. Fire strengthens self-confidence to tackle problems without hesitation.   

Without fire, there is no radiance, no conviction, no expression.
