The message of fire

Question: Are there any messages from the fires?  Can we help direct the fires away from humans and animal life? 

We are here with you tonight and always.

Fire is a powerful force of light and heat — of death and of rebirth.  It can provide nourishment and it can take it away.

 Fire is an elemental expression — it needs to rage at times, it needs to clear out old growth at times and it need to express the energy of Mother Earth at times.

With with, it becomes a reminder that humans are NOT in control of the Earth. The awe with which humans see fire is well deserved.   It is a powerful force and gives you a chance to appreciate how small and insignificant you are in comparison. 

The arsonists who start fires are usually insecure people who feel powerless.  When they unleash a fire, they feel powerful, even though it is not a nice thing they do.

All of you can feel the power of nature at any time by looking around you at the Sun, the Moon, the stars, the flowers, the animals, the air, the ocean, the hills, the birds, the insects.  All are part of something much larger than you are and you can connect with them and learn from them all. You can also teach them — and other humans — by opening your heart, your mind and your body to the awesome beauty and wonder of the physical plane.

There is no specific message from this fire.  The message is the message of All That Is: that you are all connected — all humans, all living things and all physical things on your world.

The children at camp near the fires have had a once-in-a-lifetime experience — to see nature running world, to feel safe in the midst of danger, to be cared for by strangers and to see those “stranger” become friends in no time and to know they are loved at all times.  These are powerful teachings for anyone and for teens, with their many challenges in coping in the world, the lessons are very powerful at this particular time in their young lives.

We have said before and repeat, “You are well loved and supported on your physical plane journey.”
