Fire in tarot symbolizes conversion or passion.
passion from inspiration
The archangel of fire is Michael, the angel is Aral, the ruler is Seraph, the king is Djin, and the fire elementals (following Paracelsus) are called salamanders.[14] Fire is considered to be active; it is represented by the symbol for Leo and it is referred to the lower right point of the pentacle in the Supreme Invoking Ritual of the Pentacle.
“Meditate on the symbol of the fire element. Invoke the archangel Michael – who is like God. Light a fire or a candle and gaze into the flame. Experience how you become more and more one with the fire and that it burns away everything that no longer serves your being and your mission. Receive the light and glow of the fire and let it bring inspiration into your life.
Listen to your intuition. How do you allow intuition to work in your life? Reflect on your creativity. How does creativity find outlet in your life? Can it be awakened even more? Experience your will. How does it manifest in your life?
The fire is associated with the choleric type due to its heat and dryness. Strong fire elements have a natural aptitude for leadership and strong ambitions. However, the choleric type is also prone to anger and aggression. How do you experience conflicts? What does your inner choleric look like? Seek to understand how it affects your life.
Strive to manifest the quality of “to dare” – to dare what must be attempted. Be energetic and strong like the salamanders, but avoid irritability and ferocity.”
