Fire rules the caustic chemicals used in digestion and through its relationship to light, it is associated with sight and the eyes. It is idealistic and progressive and leads the way into the future through its ability to visualize and arouse passion. When toxic, it is impatient and angry. Fire is hot, dry, and light — and since it is the only element that is warm, it is needed to reduce the coldness of the other elements.
