A3 books Fire - a handbook for firekeepers

Since the dawn of time, fire has been essential to humanity. Fire played an important role not only in daily life, but also in ceremonies. Our ancestors believed that every consecrated fire is connected to the great Life Fire, to the fire deep within the Earth, and to fires of all times.
The Elders knew when the time had come to pass on knowledge to others. Thus, Immia Schellevis felt at a certain point that it was her turn to pass on the knowledge and experience she had gained in almost twenty years of firekeeping, and she did so in the form of a book. "It was outdoors in the third round of a sweat lodge ceremony when the sun was almost setting, and I realized I was getting older."

In this handbook for firekeepers (fire women and fire men), she first tells about the path she has taken to become a fire woman and fire priestess. Then she provides a lot of practical information and advice on tools, clothing, safety, gathering materials, team tasks, building a fire for a sweat lodge ceremony or a fire walk, and the course of such ceremonies. But above all, she focuses on the language of Fire. Fire communicates with you. That requires you to be aware of everything that is and is not within you, and to let Fire feel this. Fire has its own language, and understanding it begins with contact with trees, grasses, and reeds, the seasons, and cardinal directions – while gathering materials, choosing your tools, preparing the ceremony, and ultimately keeping the fire. The more you are in contact with nature, Mother Earth, and the Great Knowing, the more you will understand the language of Fire. Fire is by definition uncontrollable, but you can cooperate with it if you are deeply in contact with it. Fire shows you the way to what it needs if you open yourself to it. Fire releases knowledge and wisdom, gives you deep insights and answers that you sometimes don't immediately understand. Understanding Fire requires you to be guided by that which is greater than you.
