I find a certain beauty in Fire, whether it is a lonely flickering flame of a candle during my meditation, or a gentle campfire on the white sand beach...
I perform fire dancing often and when I perform, I feel free from any ties this World has on me. For those moments as the flames dance around my body I am one with the ever changing flame and at complete peace. Whether it is me and some mates at the park, or if it is a performance I AM freedom for that certain amount of time.
Who else feels this way about fire...A cosmic and spiritual tie to the effect it has on your soul?
Any other fire dancers out there willing to share a certain magical moment?

I am a Pagan, and as such try to commune with all the elements, but Fire is the one I feel most drawn to, have a kinship with. My main Patron is a God of Fire, and I am the one often called to evoke the Fire element when in group ritual. There is a beauty in it's power to purify and be one's best friend, and to destroy and be one's worst enemy. It's unpredictable, it's energetic, it's liberating. I haven't done fire dancing but I have done firewalking, and that has been one of the most profound spiritual experiences I've had in my life so far. It's very liberating, very empowering, and very cleansing.

I love fire man. There is nothing more relaxing the dancing flames of a fire. I am not a fire dance but I have watched people many times do this and it is fantastic! I shall one day have to learn this as it looks amazing!

I am drawn to fire in a certain way. It seems to be more than just a chemical reaction. Not a fire dancer by any means. You are lucky to have a spiritual connection with something you can then use to please other people in your performances and have joy yourself at the same time.

Don't dance too close to the fire, you may get burned.
I like fire, but only controlled fires. I like campfires , candle light and Tiki torches . Right now I have a fire in the fireplace.

I can relate. As a Pagan, I place much spiritual value on the element of fire. Its warmth and glow always make me feel loved by God. Blessed be.

The spiritual tie that it has for me is keeping my body warm during the winter months.

I like lying in the dark with candles lit. It is very relaxing and I find it helps me to center myself.

I can't help thinking of the cleansing by fire. a purification if you will. A natural order to things.

Most people fear fire, I'M NOT TO CRAZY about it myself. I t keeps me warm in the winter, that's about all I like about it, we need it to cook. I guess it's a pretty good thing if you use it right.

God created it - like everything else.
There is beauty in it - but give God the credit in all you appreciate.
