Magical Exercise

Imbue a candle, using visualisation and the same thought from the Air exercise.  Turn off all the lights in the room and light the candle.  Watch the flame as the light fills the room with your thought.   Let the candle burn for 10 minutes.  Do this for 7 to 10 days to strengthen your ability to control and direct the element of Fire.

Fire is able to hold a positive charge similar to electricity.  This force is known as electrical fluid.
