Aether

Breathe,

breathe,

the aether

of this sacred place;

Dance,

dance,

as the fire,

in space.

The balance of the five elements. We are fire, and aether is all around us.

The space that fills a room doesn’t mean nothingness, but it provides the room’s existence. In the same way, the space between us is a meaningful emptiness where everything is possible.

This has been part of many cultural traditions, like the concept of ‘Ma’ in Japanese culture; or ‘Ku’ in Buddhism; or aether from the greek philosophy, also known as the fifth element.

For the fire to exist, all other elements need to coexist.
