A group around a campfire: Libra 4

Hearth

One of the core archetypal images for what it means to be human is that of the hearth.

The use of fire to gather people around, whether for cooking and the sharing of food, or for the warmth that secures fellowship, the hearth reaches far inside the human psyche. The flame of the hearth transforms. Cook over an open flame and enjoy how the smoke and char adds surprising and fulfilling dimensions to the eating experience. 

Today’s symbol suggests there is magic, alchemy, at work in gathering around a campfire. Social events and relationships can bring surprising and satisfying developments. Watch for something wonderful in social interactions to ignite enthusiasms. 

Fire… the hearth… is that which organizes all human relations. Fire is the flame of spirit with expressions ranging from embers, through red hot coals to full on blaze. Gather round the campfire… it could be the kitchen or a candle-lit altar, or even an imaginary fire pulling people to join… and let the magic happen.
