Fire Teaching
Fire - All humans have a fire within. The Earth also has a fire at Her center, and we humans have a connection to Her fire. The fire keeps the Earth in balance along with the Life Force. Global warming creates an imbalance with the Life Force and the Earth. Extreme weather and the melting ice represents that imbalance. This is a teaching from our ancient wisdom. Humans have to begin listening to our Mother to rebalance the Life Force and the Fire.
