Fire

During the performance, the element of fire is mainly used to symbolise cleansing and the warmth of the sun at spring.. Fire with its raw, feral nature shows the power and danger of fire and the sun, the source of all life. The role of fire is one of chaos joined with order. In the real world, fire seems chaotic to the uninitiated, but patterns emerge within the ritual showing a mythical understanding and respect within the performance.
