How to Harness the Energy of Fire Fairies for Creative Courage

In 2022, you might be feeling the massive shift happening. Many things are going on energetically, and people are waking up. Many people want to reconnect to themselves and to the planet. Many of us are ready to create trust in Gaia and the rich, beautiful elemental energies around us.

We have the beauty of the sun. We have the beauty of the ocean. We have the beauty of the air and the energy of the earth.

Yet, for the most part, many of us seem quite disconnected from all of this…

I rarely find people who consistently sit in nature and connect to themselves and what's around them. Because of this, I am doing a series on the four elemental energies and the parts of the Earth that nurture us and keep us alive and thriving.

These elements exist within us, but they can become out of balance on a regular basis.

Why balance is so important for connection

We want to keep connecting with nature as much as possible so we stay balanced within ourselves. But why would we do this? Why should we even care?

Well, because our health relies on it. Our connection to Earth relies on it. Our connection to our spiritual energies relies on it. 

The energy we want to keep balanced within ourselves is part of an elemental force. It's not only emotional. It's not only spiritual. It's also about making sure we are connected to what's around us and the elements that make us human beings.

We have fire, we have earth, we have water, and we have air.

These elements create all physical matter and when we remain out of balance with those energies or elements of the planet, then all sorts of challenges start to show up.

Whether it's emotional, physical, spiritual or energetic, some imbalance will arise.

To rebalance, we have to understand what we're dealing with and today we’re working with the energy of the salamander. This is the energy of the fire element. These salamanders, or fire fairies, bring the beautiful qualities of courage, creativity, valour and loyalty.

Are you missing that fire in your belly?

As human beings, we are missing these energies in our communities and the general population—not completely, but on some level.  Our aim, now, is to reconnect to that strong, almost base chakra, community-based energy. We can connect with the fire energy of the fire fairies, that salamander energy, to bring that balance into ourselves. We can ask for those qualities to be rebirthed within our bodies, minds and souls.

If we can do this on a regular basis, we're going to create more balance within ourselves and more easily call on these qualities. Loyalty, courage, creativity and valour are amazing qualities to have as a human and what we're so often missing is that fire, that passion, that forward movement and the ability to create momentum in our lives.

If we can bring in that fire element, we also bring in more balance within ourselves, within our families and within our communities.

Salamander energy! Respect it! Fire can be terribly destructive but can also create rebirth.

Of course, this is not about going out and starting fires everywhere. Please don't do that! Rather, it’s about respecting the energy that fire brings. Fire is part of what creates our balance. We have fire in our bellies for creativity, for digestion and for general health.

If we don't have enough fire in our belly, we are missing a great proportion of our health’s energy balance. We need to be able to digest properly and if we don't have enough fire in our belly, we're not going to digest well.

A lack of fire in our belly can also equal fear. It can equal a massive lack of courage, which happens from not trusting ourselves or not moving forward no matter what.

If we can learn to balance and call on that element of fire and the beautiful qualities that come with it, we can create spectacular changes within ourselves.
