Fire is a Sacred Element that can bring us into deeper communion with each other and with Spirit. In this anciently intuitive ceremony we gather around a ritual fire, offering gifts of gratitude and prayers of peace and healing.  We listen as the fire speaks to each one of us.  We drum and dance and sing. We welcome the animal and earth kingdom to join us in a deep celebration of life and love.
 
Each of us bring something to burn that we would like to rid from our past that will burn, turn to smoke and release into the ethers. (This allows the past energy to move along to its highest spiritual progression path and the new prayer request to move along to its highest spiritual progression path).
 
We may bring pictures, drawings, or intentions written on a piece of paper for the past or the newness. For the past, after we have burned and released it.
 
Then we have something prepared that is written down on a clean sheet of paper. This would be something new that we would like to call forth from God.
 
For the newness, the prayer request is then burned and released into the ethers thereby replacing the past.
 
We form a circle around the fire and one by one we call in support from Divine Sources that give us peace. E.g. - God, Jesus, Creator, the Blessed Virgin Mother, Spirit, the Universe, the Archangels, the Saints that we may feel closest to, Guardian Angels, etc.
 
We start with a prayer, and end with a prayer that is coupled with thanksgiving that our prayers and intentions have already been answered.
 
Keep in mind, no one is obligated to speak during a Fire Ceremony. Anyone can participate without stating what they are releasing or calling forth.
 
After we have called in our Divine Source we place into the fire our pictures, drawings and intended release of the past.
 
Once these things have burned to smoke and ash, we then place into the fire what we have written on clean sheet of paper. This would be what we desire to replace those old energies with and call in new.
 
The things we address from our past or call into our future can be shared with the group or kept to ourselves as we go through the Fire Ceremony.
