Black Witches: Black Girl Magic

🜂 Fire Witch Guide 🜂

Common Signs of a Fire Witch

🔥 You were particularly energetic as a kid, or even now. You're spunky

🔥 You're very brave, especially with standing up to people

🔥 You suffer from: anxiety, insomnia, circulatory issues like anemia and palpitations, dizziness or light-headedness, inflammation, skin rashes, aches and pains, loneliness or are easily overwhelmed

Ways to bond with Fire

🔥 Teach yourself not to fear it, or at least not too much. If you’re anything like me, fire kinda scares you, despite your connection to it. Light a candle and meditate, and teach yourself that fire is a part of you, so you shouldn’t fear it without reason.

🔥 If you’re an artist, try using charcoal pencils more often

🔥 Meditate with candles

🔥 Drink warm soup or tea (don’t burn your mouth though)

🔥 Release your passion and/or anger. I recommend getting a punching bag for when you’re feeling particularly riled up

🔥 Working out, or any other activities that make you sweat

🔥 Burn Bay Leaves with wishes on them to make them come true

🔥 Get a Himalayan Salt Lamp. Don’t use it if you have pets though, as it might harm them

🔥 Use a Heating Pad when you’re in pain

🔥 Take time to notice your body heat more often. Appreciate how warm your skin and breath feels

🔥 Pursue your passions, whatever those might be. If it makes you passionate, go for it. Fire is the element of not holding back

🔥 Channel your passion and especially your anger into productivity rather than pain

🔥 Drink tea with warm spices

🔥 Eat spicy food if you can handle it

🔥 Be brave in all things

🔥 Use more Dragon imagery in your life
