How to Control Fire Magic
Fire magic is the magic of destruction, as well as divination and passion. Typically, its destructive force is used to eradicate bad habits and disease. It is also used as a symbol of the sun in New Year rituals and as a medium for divination. However, fire magic is unpredictable and very powerful. If used incorrectly, its destructive force could go beyond your control. Also, lighting and using fire in rituals requires caution; you must avoid igniting buildings and forests.
