Summer:  The time of the fire element and our time to play.  This is the most Yang/active and expansive time of year.  We want to be outside taking in the sun while relishing time with the people we love and enjoy.

Sharing good times.  Feeling joy and happiness.  This energy is about connection, relationships and trust.

A healthy fire wants to laugh, play, be silly and feel the warmth of others and the sun.  This energy is about spontaneity and being in the moment.  It isn't so much about thinking it out first, but about being excited and going with it.

To do this, one must be emotionally open and vulnerable, which can be a challenge for many of us. Somewhere along our way to adulthood, many of us unknowingly became guarded and/or uncomfortable being silly and playful.  We may have become worried about how others might understand or judge us.

Summer is the time to relax these concerns:  let your guard down and relearn how to be playful and trusting.

Let the fire energy feed our spirit, allowing us to connect with ourselves and others more freely and fully.
