As a WARRIOR, your element is FIRE. You are naturally energetic and mission-oriented. Only action counts but sometimes fire must look before it leaps.

DESCRIPTION

The Arena is battle energy. Will, anger, and ambition surge. Without balance, the Warrior loses perspective, pushing through tasks or acting too quickly. Burnout beckons.

INTEGRATION

The Red Arena is often said to be the beating heart of Earthsee.

Port, market, forum, meeting place, this is the nerve centre of movement and action.

And with so many paths crossing one space, there are bound to a few collisions.

It’s at those times we must remember the old cautions about fighting fire with fire. We end up with ashes.

The Red Arena therefore calls for watchfulness, mindfulness. When we bring the Seer’s eye to heated interactions, we can learn a lot about ourselves and others.

It is said that we do not really know a person until we know how they are under pressure or stress. The Red Arena has plenty of pressure and stress on offer.

And this is the yang, masculine, Warrior end of the Arena. People here talk loudly and act quickly.

The success stories tend to be those who have thought things through, and are following tactics or a wider plan.

This is the testing ground for resolve, commitment, self belief. Can we regulate our fire to last through night? Or will we resort to fireworks?

Those who fight fire with fire end up with ashes.
