Here is the Celtic Shaman Element of Fire - South and its description, quite fascinating...
Inspiration, the height of powers, zenith, culmination, fruition. This is the time of the Summer Solstice, the Summer King, sometimes called Gromer Somer Jour which means Lord of the Summer Day. One of his stories is told in the tale of Gawain and Ragnall where the Summer King, represented by both Gawain and Arthur, learns how to transform the world from ugliness to beauty - again by giving up any idea of controlling nature! So the King comes to the height of his powers and then is able to marry the goddess Sovereignty, represented here by Ragnall, but not until he has passed all the tests. a Germanic version of this tale is Rauch Else, but there are many versions all around the world.
June 20th and 21st is the longest day, the last day of the year when there is more light than dark, after this the days get shorter and shorter and the dark grows until after the Autumn Equinox there is more dark than light for the next six months. It is the height of the powers of the New King, his wedding time and the beginning of the end of his reign. A lot of seeming paradox there but this is how life is, a balancing of light and dark of all the pairs of opposites and the gods and goddesses enact this in their stories and show us how to do it. Fire is a transformer. In consuming matter it makes it into invisible things - we say it was all burnt up so there was nothing left of it. Nothing we could see with our normal physical vision but even in ordinary chemistry we would find invisible elements in the air. So fire has a strong connection to air. And without air there can be no fire, one of the ways firemen use to put out fires is to smother them, stop them being able to get any air. Fire needs matter, earth-stuff, and air in order to burn. It combines two elements and makes something else of them, it is creative.
In Celtic lore it is also known as the Green and Burning Tree. This is another representation of the paradox of fire, how it is two things at once and so shows us the way to walk between the worlds. Brighid is one of the major fire-guardians, also known as Brigantia in Britain. She is patroness of inspiration, poets, and of making, smiths, so she combines the elements of air and earth through her fire.
"We must pass through solitude and difficulty, isolation and silence, to find that enchanted place where we can dance our clumsy dance and sing our sorrowful song. But in that dance, and in that song, the most ancient rites of our conscience fulfill themselves in the awareness of being human. ~ by Pablo Neruda, Toward the Splendid City"
I am a true southern gal, who loves to hear and tell good stories, so I thought I would share one of my favorites with you. It's about 'The Lady of the Lake'.
The story goes like this...After his uncle is found drowned, David Lowry inherits the family house situated near an isolated lake called White Rock Lake in Dallas, TX. The lake has the reputation of being haunted by the spirit of a beautiful gypsy who was murdered years ago by a jealous knight. Over the years, many other men have drowned in White Rock Lake, fueling the cities superstitions about the Lady of the Lake. According to the legend, the Lady seduces men, making them fall madly in love with her, then kills them to avenge her brutal death. David soon meets the legend in the flesh, and falls under her spell, despite the warnings of his neighbor. However, his growing love for the mysterious Lady leads him to discover that she is but a pawn to the sinister power of an evil, undying knight. David�s love for the Lady propels him through time into a spectacular fight to the death with the knight for the very soul of his beloved Lady, and his own. ...the end.
"This life is yours. Take the power to choose what you want to do and do it well. Take the power to love what you want in life and love it honestly. Take the power to walk in the forest and be a part of nature. Take the power to control your own life. No one else can do it for you. Take the power to make your life happy. - Susan Polis Schutz
"Know you what it is to be a child? It is to be something very different from the human of today. It is to have a Spirit yet streaming from the waters of baptism; it is to believe in Love, to believe in Loveliness, to believe in Belief; it is to be so little that the elves can reach to whisper in your ear, it is to turn pumpkins into coaches, and mice into horses, lowness into loftiness, and nothing into everything, for each child has its fairy godmother in its soul." ~ by Percy Bysshe Shelley
THIS IS FAITH
To walk where there is no path
To breathe where there is no air
To see where there is not light-
This is Faith.
To cry out in the silence,
The silence of the night,
And hearing no echo believe
And believe again and again-
This is Faith.
To hold pebbles and see jewels
To raise sticks and see forests
To smile with weeping eyes-
This is Faith.
To say: "God, I believe" when others deny,
"I hear" when there is no answer,
"I see" though naught is seen-
This is Faith.
And the fierce love in the heart,
The savage love that cries
Hidden Thou art yet there~
Veil Thy face and mute Thy tongue
yet I see and hear Thee, Love,
Beat me down to the bare earth,
Yet I rise and love Thee, Love~"
This is Faith.
