Flame

Fighting flames often touches the strenuous effort that survival and wealth can demand — energy thrown against a force that won't be contained. The dream may ask what blaze you're battling, how much of your best strength it's taking, and whether getting what you want will mean wrestling fire that threatens as much as it promises.

Miller 1901

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
