Close your eyes and breathe.
Slowly in and gently out.
Feel the warmth of your breath.
And feel the life moving through your body.
The heartbeat in your chest.
The energy beneath your skin.
There is a fire inside of you.
Maybe today it's roaring.
Maybe today it's only a small flame.
But it is there.
It has always been there.
You are a woman of fire.
Ares,
Leo,
Sagittarius.
You were never made to quietly disappear into the background.
No.
There is something in you that wants to live.
Fully.
Wildly.
Honestly.
You carry a spark that cannot be taught.
A warmth that cannot be manufactured.
A light that people feel before you ever say a word.
There is something about your presence that wakes people up.
You remind them that life is happening now.
Not someday.
Not when everything is perfect.
No.
You love floutly.
You love.
Passionately.
You dream without asking whether your dreams are reasonable.
And when something inside of you says go.
There is a part of you that already knows you were never meant to stay still.
You are a woman of fire.
And fire doesn't ask permission to burn.
It burns.
It warms.
It illuminates.
It transforms.
And so do you.
There've probably been moments when you were told you were too much.
Too loud.
Too emotional.
Too ambitious.
Too intense.
Too confident.
Too restless.
Too passionate.
Too honest.
Maybe you'll learn to make yourself smaller.
To soften your opinions,
To hide your excitement.
To dim your light so someone else wouldn't feel uncomfortable standing beside it.
But beautiful woman.
You were never meant to become easier to contain.
You were meant to become impossible to extinguish.
Your fire isn't a problem to solve.
It is life force.
It is creativity.
It is courage.
It is desire.
It is the part of you that looks at a life that no longer feels alive.
And has the courage to change it.
The part of you that says there has to be more and then goes looking for it.
You've always understood that life is meant to be experienced.
Not simply survive.
You want to taste it,
Touch it,
Travel through it,
Fall in love with it.
You want stories,
Adventure,
Passion,
Freedom.
Moments that make you forget to look at the time.
You want to feel your heart beating and know I am alive.
And there is something beautiful about the way you love.
Because when a woman of fire loves you.
.
.
You know.
There's warmth in her loss.
Loyalty in her love.
Energy in her loss.
She celebrates you.
She believes in you.
She sees something inside of you and wants to watch it become bigger.
She reminds you of your power when you have forgotten it yourself.
She will stand beside you.
Cheer for you.
Fight for you.
And sometimes.
Believe in your dream before you do.
Her laugh does not whisper.
Stay where you are.
Now.
Her love says.
Come on,
There is more for you.
Let's go find it.
And maybe that is one of your greatest gifts.
You ignite people.
You remind them of possibility.
You make them want to live a little bigger.
Dream a little further.
Risk a little more.
Laugh a little harder.
But beautiful woman.
You don't have to burn yourself to keep everyone else warm.
Your fire belongs to you first.
You don't have to perform your happiness.
You don't always have to be the strong one,
The exciting one,
The brave one,
The one who keeps moving.
Even fire needs somewhere safe to become a quiet flame.
So breathe.
And imagine yourself standing beneath an endless evening sky.
The sun is low.
Golden light touches your skin.
The air is warm.
And in front of you,
A fire is burning.
Watch the flames move.
Never still.
Never apologizing for taking up space.
Notice how beautiful they are.
Not despite their wildness,
But because of it.
And recognize yourself.
There you are,
In every flame.
Changing.
Moving.
Becoming.
Fire was never meant to remain the same shape.
Neither were you.
You're allowed to reinvent yourself.
You're allowed to outgrow the version of you that once felt right.
You are allowed to change your mind.
Change direction.
Start again.
One something bigger.
One something different.
You don't owe your past your future.
Take a breath.
And feel the fire in the center of your body.
Imagine a warm golden glow beginning somewhere deep within you.
With every breath,
It grows.
Through your belly.
Into your chest.
Across your shoulders.
Down your arms.
Through your legs.
Until your entire body feels warm with life.
This is your energy,
Your desire,
Your courage,
Your aliveness and you don't need to earn it.
You don't need anyone to give it to you.
It has always been yours.
Trust a thing that lights you up.
Trust what makes your eyes sparkle.
Trust what gives you energy.
Trust a dream you cannot stop thinking about.
Trust the part of you that keeps whispering,
More.
Not because this moment isn't enough,
But because your soul knows when it is ready to expand.
You weren't born to watch your own life from the sidelines.
You're here to participate in it.
To choose.
To create.
To move.
To fall,
To rise,
To love,
To laugh,
To begin again.
To follow the roads that make absolutely no sense to anyone but you.
And maybe.
That is where your magic lives.
You go first.
You dare.
You leap.
You remind the rest of us that courage doesn't always mean being unafraid.
Sometimes courage is simply saying,
I want this and moving toward it anyway.
Place one hand over your heart.
Feel the beating.
There is a whole life moving inside of you.
And there are people in this world whose lives became brighter because they met you.
People who laughed harder because of you.
Dream bigger because of you.
Believed in themselves,
Because you believed in them first.
People who remember the warmth of your presence long after you have left the room.
What a gift that is.
What a gift you are.
Than anyone who is truly loved by a woman of fire.
Will know what it feels like to be loved by someone who sees the light inside of them and refuses to let them forget it.
So take one final breath in.
Feel your chest rise.
Feel the warmth inside you.
And remember.
You don't need permission to take up space.
You don't need permission to want more.
You don't need permission to begin again.
You don't need permission to shine.
You are a woman of fire.
Warm as the sun.
Wild as the flame.
Brave enough to begin.
Passionate enough to keep going.
Magnetic.
Alive.
Free.
And beneath it all.
A heart that reminds this world how beautiful it is to be fully alive.
Never dim that fire.
It is your gift.
It is your language.
It is your magic.
And this world burns a little brighter,
Because you are in it.
