Fire & Life Cycles

Fire doesn’t just burn—it clears, it makes space, it feeds the soil for what comes next. But it’s not a simple thing. Some fires rage, taking more than they give. Others move slow, deliberate, held in the hands of those who know how to read the land. Cool burns, timed right, leave a mosaic behind—patchworks of life in different stages, regenerating in rhythm.
 
This is how ecosystems find balance, not by avoiding destruction but by working with it, knowing when to let things burn and when to step in. The land has always known this. It’s people who have forgotten.
 
Fire is knowledge. It moves in cycles, just like us. It forces hard choices, demands clarity, makes you sit with what needs to go and what needs to stay. It shows up in our own stories—in the moments that strip us bare, make us rethink the way we walk, the way we govern ourselves. If you don’t respect it, it takes everything. But if you listen, if you learn the patterns, you start seeing the pathways through with more precision.
 
The beauty of a burnt land isn’t in what was lost—it’s in what’s beginning again
