Fehu
Fundamental fire,
Elemental home,
Energetic essence,
One half of Creation.
Primal, wild, uncontrolled;
To hold it is to possess the soul
Of power and transformation.
It takes us into itself
Until we cease to be
What once we were.
We are destroyed
And in our place
Is light, heat, and ash.
It creates us, transforms, and destroys us.
Mobile power, held within, but moving out;
The agency and carrier of Will.
The strength of stampeding cattle,
Energy of the charge
In can sustain you through the winter
Or tear the world apart.
Beware the raw, unfettered potency,
For dangers lie in brightness
As in dark.
Do not forget:
That which feeds a fire
Is consumed by it.
Feed your fire
On what you can sustain,
Or devour yourself.
