Being very close to fighting area could reflect forthcoming disagreement with someone or your mental struggle. If you are participating proactively in a combat, it means undergoing conflict in waking life. Disagreement can be with some person or with your inner self. Personal involvement in any disturbing situation also can cause a dream of being a soldier in a war zone.

Medicine Wheel Meanings:

- Huichol shamans: wisdom

Artemidoros Meanings:

Fire is functionally distinguished in two different kinds:

• firstly the heaven and divine,
• secondly the earth and the one which is used in everyday life.

In the interpretation of the heaven fire you have to proceed as follows:

• to look at radiant, pure and small fire in the sky means a threat from power,
• however, a large but immeasurable predicts the approach of enemies, infertility and famine (to parallel the Babylonian astrology ).

Enemies and Danger Where the fire appears or from which direction it comes, whether from north or south, from west or east, from there the enemies will come near or rule infertility in these areas. Worst of all is, when you see falling down fire on the earth. Burning torches in the sky mean the same. All these phenomena bring on danger over the head of the dreamer. Because like the sky (above-ground) towers above the universe, so the head – the body.

Looking at the fire, which is used in everyday life, with small and pure flame, it is like blessing, but if it blazes enormously and unrestrained, it shows the evil.

• Prosperity The best to see is hearth fire – glow and pure. It means great prosperity, because where meals aren’t prepared the fire is pure;
• Poverty You cannot see the fire on the stove if it expires then it threatens grinding poverty;
• Success To dream that you carry a burning torch at night, it is positive especially for young people. It usually means pleasant love affairs and successful businesses, because you can see what is in front of your feet;
• Wellness The ethereal fire brings good luck, particularly to sick persons, it is to them as a sign of the rescue and salvation.
