What Is Divine Fire?
I think of energy like fire.
Fire always follows fuel, but it also follows direction. If you light a cornfield from one side, the fire burns primarily in one direction. If you ignite it in the center, it spreads outward in all directions. Add a strong wind, and the flames stretch and move with purpose.
I use this as a metaphor for intention.
Our attention is the fuel. Our intention is the spark. Emotion, music, and focus become the wind that gives our energy direction.
This is the practice I call Divine Fire.
Step 1: Create a Sacred Space
I begin by finding a quiet place and sitting comfortably.
I close my eyes and visualize a person standing before me. In my mind, we are both inside a circle. To me, this circle is a sacred space of focus and intention.
I invite the person to step forward. I become still and simply allow myself to experience the moment.
Step 2: Visualize the Presence
As I focus, I imagine a presence emerging.
For me, this presence often represents the person's waking self or lower self—the personality and conscious mind that experiences the material world. Others may view this differently. Some may interpret it as another aspect of consciousness or a symbolic representation of the person.
The important part is allowing yourself to focus your attention fully.
Step 3: Build the Sphere of Energy
I raise my hands and hold them slightly apart, one on each side of the imagined body.
I become quiet and patient.
I imagine energy gathering between my hands. It begins like warmth and gradually becomes a sphere of focused intention.
I slowly move my hands from the top of the person's head to the tips of their toes and back again.
I repeat this movement for several minutes.
Then I move my hands across the arms, shoulders, torso, waist, legs, and head in a slow, wave-like motion, imagining energy flowing in and out like the movement of the ocean.
For me, the purpose of these motions is to create a sense of connection and focused intention.
Step 4: Use Music to Direct Intention
Music is important to my practice because rhythm helps me maintain focus and emotional connection.
The beat becomes the wind behind the fire.
I often use these songs:
- Traust by Heilung
- Three Names in the Fire by Apexwolf Beats
- Say You Won't Let Go by James Arthur
- Do It Again by Elevation Worship
Each song carries a different emotional quality that helps me focus my intentions.
Step 5: Allow Emotion
Sometimes this practice becomes deeply emotional for me.
I may cry, remember difficult experiences, or feel a strong sense of compassion for the person I am focusing on.
I do not try to suppress these emotions. Instead, I allow them to be present and use them as reminders of why I care and why I am practicing.
Final Thoughts
To me, Divine Fire is not about destruction.
The flame represents intention.
It represents focused attention moving with purpose. It is a personal meditation practice that uses visualization, rhythm, emotion, and symbolic imagery to create a sense of connection and transformation.
Like fire, our attention spreads where we feed it.
And like fire, when we give it direction, it moves with purpose.
This is a very personal session experience I know the other person is feeling. My intention is to wake them up.
